  • Patent number: 8425732
    Abstract: A method of operating an assembly for recycling a solvent from a contaminated solvent solution including a source for the contaminated solvent solution at a level and a recycling assembly including a reservoir module and a recycler module. The reservoir module includes a reservoir and the recycler module includes a controller and a distillation assembly including a distiller having a conduit and a pressure relief valve. The pressure relief valve includes a tube. The method includes connecting the conduit to the source below the level; connecting the pressure relief valve tube to the source; pumping solvent into the reservoir, distiller and conduit to an operational level; and selecting a duty cycle of the controller to regulate a rest period after the controller operation of a distillation cycle.

  • Publication number: 20120315612
    Abstract: A mobile medical simulation platform for training medical emergency personnel comprises a mobile base movable between remote geographical locations. The mobile base may include a main enclosure having a forward end and a rearward end and defining an interior space. The base may also include medical equipment in the interior space of the main enclosure and usable in medical simulation training for treating a human patient, and simulation apparatus configured to provide simulation of medical events and conditions of a human patient. The interior space is separated into an ambulance simulation area and an emergency room simulation area contained in the main enclosure to permit simultaneous simulation training exercises to occur in each of the simulation areas. A method of utilizing the platform may include conducting training at a first location, moving the platform to a second location, and conducting training at the second location.

  • Publication number: 20120172167
    Abstract: An axle assembly for a vehicle including a first gear, and a second gear joined to a shaft extending along a longitudinal axis. The second gear engages the first gear. A bearing is disposed over the shaft distal the second gear. A housing is disposed about at least a portion of the shaft. The housing includes a first lubricant pathway spaced apart from a second lubricant pathway, wherein the first lubricant pathway routes lubricant towards the bearing and the second lubricant pathway routes lubricant away from the bearing. The first and second lubricant pathways are not in a position coplanar with a plane of rotation of the first gear.
