Patent number: 9102088Abstract: A molded insulated connector for a Quadrax cable. The connector includes an outer tube and four inner tubes housed within the outer tube. Each inner tube defines a hole configured to receive a medium for transmitting signals. Outer beams connect and space apart the inner tubes and the outer tubes. Inner beams connect and space apart the inner tubes. The outer tube, inner tubes, outer beams, and inner beams define hollow passageways which extend through the outer tube.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2013Date of Patent: August 11, 2015Assignee: SabritecInventors: Richard Johannes, Christopher W. Nesselroad, John Kooiman

Patent number: 7017621Abstract: A modular container filling apparatus includes a simple pilot valve which can be operated by a push button, a bottle-engaging yoke, or a manual valve at the distal end of a bucket filling hose. The modular construction of the apparatus allows a plurality of units to be mounted side by side on a modular water manifold by bayonet-type sealing connections. An anti-foam venturi and spout mixes chemicals with the water and minimizes foaming when filling a bottle. A plurality of chemicals can be selected by a rotational selector without intermixing.Type: GrantFiled: February 22, 2005Date of Patent: March 28, 2006Assignee: Knight, Inc.Inventors: Paul M. Beldham, Donald W. Smeller, Christopher W. Nesselroad

Patent number: 6240983Abstract: Foaming and lateral water leakage during the filling of a container with a foam-prone water/chemical mixture is minimized by using, at the inlet of the venturi nozzle which draws the chemical into the water, a water authority-approved resilient-sleeve air gap which furnishes air-free water to the venturi while providing a siphon-breaking air gap if water is not flowing into the venturi.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2000Date of Patent: June 5, 2001Assignee: Knight, Inc.Inventors: Paul M. Beldham, Donald W. Smeller, Christopher W. Nesselroad

Patent number: 5673725Abstract: An air gap, venturi-type mixer for mixing a liquid chemical with water includes a readily field-exchangeable collimator, water seal and venturi unit to accommodate different flow rates. The venturi unit includes a funnel with slightly inclined walls that direct a misaligned collimated water stream into the vena contracta of the venturi without reducing its speed or entraining any air.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 1996Date of Patent: October 7, 1997Assignee: Knight Equipment International, Inc.Inventors: William Knight Russell, Paul M.

Patent number: 5637812Abstract: A testing apparatus which has a test chamber located within a chamber frame. The apparatus includes a computer controlled ergonomic system which can vary the temperature of the test chamber. Within the test chamber is an adjustable ceiling that can be moved to vary the volume of the chamber. Extending around the outer edge of the ceiling is an inflatable seal which seals the chamber when the ceiling is moved to a new position. The ceiling and walls have a plurality of adjustable vents that direct fluid flow into the chamber. The doors of the apparatus are each constructed from an inner wall that is coupled to an outer wall by a plurality of floating joints. The floating joints allow the inner wall to contract or expand relative to the outer wall without creating a corresponding stress on the outer wall or the joints.Type: GrantFiled: November 14, 1994Date of Patent: June 10, 1997Assignee: Screening Systems, Inc.Inventors: Peter D. Baker, Robert H. Weinmann, Jr., Robert Mercado, Christopher W. Nesselroad, Lucy A. Baker, Gilbert J. Bastien
