Abstract: A device for housing electronics and optics at the leading edge of a fire suppression operation. The device can be attached to a fire hose, water discharge outlet on a fire engine/ladder truck. The device can enhance fire ground visibility by means of a lighting source, enhance fire ground communication by means of a video monitoring source, enhance operation using infrared thermal imaging and enhance fire fighter safety by means of an atmospheric/biological metering/monitoring/warning source. All of these enhancements are preferably contained in one, unit with the ability to be deployed anywhere on the fire scene.

Abstract: A fragrance slurry pad patterned sampler including a base material applied to one of coated and uncoated paper, flexible film and paper laminations, aluminum foil, thermal plastics, PET, OPP, BOPP, EVA, PE, and other commonly polymer films providing the base for the fragrance sampler, the sampler including a slurry formed from various aroma chemicals, one sampler formed of one or more aroma chemicals, and the other sampler formed of one or more aroma chemicals, each applied to the base material, in a patterned arrangement, so that when the microencapsulated chemicals are fractured upon opening of the sampler, the separate aromas will be delivered sequentially, or in combination, depending upon their patterned application to the base sheet of the sampler.

Abstract: An apparatus for reducing wrinkles in a film includes a first pair of cylindrical rollers including a first roller and a second roller, the first and second roller each in parallel juxtaposed relation to each other, and each having a substantially smooth surface; and a second pair of cylindrical rollers including a third roller and a fourth roller, the third and fourth roller each in parallel juxtaposed relation to each other, and at least one of the third and fourth roller having a chevron pattern disposed on the surface thereof; the first pair of rollers being adjacent to and spaced apart from the second pair of rollers. A method for reducing wrinkles is also disclosed herein.
