  • Publication number: 20080283255
    Abstract: A Liquid Nitrogen Enabler Apparatus is disclosed herein, wherein the apparatus may be configured to protect the earth, people and property. The apparatus is configured to distribute liquid nitrogen that converts to nitrogen gas to achieve its desired effects. Nitrogen gas carries the temperature, the inertness, and the tendency to cloud, gather amongst itself with the exclusion of other gases. Combining the thermal qualities with the inertness of the nitrogen gas, fires and other such crises are handled. There are various advantages associated with treating fires and other such crises with liquid nitrogen such as that when the liquid nitrogen converts into a gaseous form and is applied to a fire draft, rather than directly to the fire itself. The fire draft will pull the gaseous nitrogen into the fire, thus ending the burn.

  • Publication number: 20070214808
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for using liquid nitrogen to render crises safe, as in circumstances of hostage crises, entering Methamphetamine labs, purging the accumulating toxic or flammable gases, ending the dispersal of substances from aerosols and capturing the material dispersed by condensing it and sealing it in containers for disposal, picking up spills by solidifying them or gelling the material and containing it for disposal—this includes Mercury spills, sealing and repairing broken pipes and dikes and dams, enabling a combustion engine to quit running, changing the conditions in a weather system to counter funnel formation in a tornado threat, strengthening levee structures by freezing the core for the length of the levee when severe crises occur, rapid cooling lava flows to structure the solid lava formation to something useful in that location, purging the coalmine fire environment of Oxygen to quell the long-term blaze, and treating industrial stack gas to useful soot, water and Carbon dioxide componen

  • Publication number: 20070089431
    Abstract: A method and apparatus for using liquid nitrogen to render fires and explosives inert, thus extinguishing and controlling the fire or explosive. The present invention utilizes a trough comprising a plurality of apertures to rain liquid nitrogen down on an area underneath the trough so as to evaporate the liquid nitrogen, super cool the surrounding area, and remove oxygen so as to render the area inert.

  • Publication number: 20040226301
    Abstract: This invention is a means to quell uncontrolled fires, dissipate low-pressure cells in tornado-producing clouds and make ordinance as mines, old bombs and the like inert and provide a design opportunity for lava flows. For each operation, one applies unique means of distribution of Liquid Nitrogen, either above the surface sufficiently to allow it to rain down from holes in a trough forming a pattern in the bottom of an encircling or linear trough held up with stakes or legs of a length optimum for maximum evaporation before hitting the surface, or underground with drilling means or preparatory piping or well placed air drops of Liquid Nitrogen. This produces local cooling and expansion of inert gas supplanting the general atmosphere with a nitrogen atmosphere reducing significantly the amount of oxygen available and increasing the atmospheric pressure. Both cooling and flooding with inert gas quickly quell of fires. The expansion of gas sprayed in tornado-producing clouds raises the atmospheric pressure.

  • Patent number: 5147985
    Abstract: Using sheet battery material as a circuit board substrate eliminates the weight and bulk of batteries as a separate circuit component and also eliminates the weight and bulk of fiberglass substrate or flex substrate as printed circuit materials. Insets with wiring built in can give vertical wiring between two or more circuit layers and can support electronic components which have leads connecting wiring on more than one layer of a printed circuit. Connector clips inserted when the connector pins are polarized target connection to power and to ground components of one or more layers of sheet battery. Using these connections between battery substrate components of the structure allows a single power source as A-C or solar to recharge all battery substrate in the electronic component.

  • Patent number: 5111103
    Abstract: A mosaic of monitor units contained in a single covering provide higher-resolution monitor displays proportional to the number of monitor units contained in the monitor casement. The extension of the flat viewing surface of the monitor in one or more directions accommodates the touch screen function both over the monitor surface and in the area surrounding it with one transparent layer between both the electronic image and marginal fixed markings and the touch response surface reduces parallax factors. A receiver and signal processor which outputs dual signals, the first defining the image in a Standard Broadcast mode and the second providing selected sharpness where detail is required. The method for action video of transmitting only the changes in the high-resolution areas cuts data transmission and recorded date levels. Audio unit configuration accommodations directionally both listening and speaking reducing sound contamination in the environment and allowing response in the direction of the sound source.
