Patent number: 9047755Abstract: A hygiene compliance system comprising personnel tags each having a respective status indicator that may be set to a first value indicating hygiene compliance or to a second value indicating hygiene non-compliance. Monitors for target zones, e.g. patients' beds, detect the presence of the personnel tags at the target zone. Monitors for hygiene stations, e.g. washbasins, detect the presence of the tags at the hygiene stations. When the hygiene station monitor detects that a hygiene station has been used, the respective tag is set to the first value. The target zone monitor checks the status of tags detected in its target zone and may issue a warning if the status indicates hygiene non-compliance. When the person leaves the target zone, the target zone monitor changes the respective tag's status to the second value.Type: GrantFiled: December 14, 2010Date of Patent: June 2, 2015Assignee: Itronik Interconnect LimitedInventor: James Bonner

Publication number: 20130239792Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of high-strength ribbons having a high modulus of elasticity made of a highly molecular polyolefin, wherein the polyolefins, particularly polypropylene and polyethylene, are extruded through a slotted nozzle, are then subjected to a temperature of 85° to 135° C. for a duration of at least one second, the films are then cut into individual ribbons, if necessary, and stretched at temperatures between 90° and 165° C. in one or more steps, are rolled up or further processed directly into textiles or technical flexible sheet materials. The ribbons can be laminated into multi-layer flexible sheet materials by using adhesives or adhesion promoters, the flexible sheet materials being particularly suitable as protection from ballistic projectiles. In this case particularly in the form of plate-shaped or flexible compound bodies.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 22, 2013Publication date: September 19, 2013Applicant: NEXTRUSION GMBHInventors: Hans-Joachim Bruning, Andreas Fischer, Jan Adolph Dam Backer, Mark James Bonner, Ian McMillan Ward
