Abstract: A system to provide a specified volume of a medical fluid from a bulk source to a dose and/or delivery container for injection into a patient. The fluid path between the bulk container and the delivery container is physically separated at a connecting site before fluid is injected from the delivery container into the patient. The bulk container may be a bag or bottle, and the delivery container may be a syringe or bag. A bag delivery container may be contained in a pressurizeable chamber and fluid may be delivered by providing pressure to a membrane in the chamber contacting a wall of the bag. The system may be automated.

Abstract: An analyzer typically used in conjunction with a standard carbonated beverage container filling line that determines the concentration of a dissolved gas such as carbon dioxide of a beverage liquid being supplied to the filling line has the following components:a. a sealed cell having an entry and an exit for liquids and a pressure transducer for measuring the pressure and a temperature transducer for measuring the temperature of the contents of the cell;b. a first valve for diverting a portion of the liquid being supplied to the entry of the cell and a second valve sealing the exit of the cell to prevent the liquid from escaping;c. a third valve for venting pressure from the cell;d. an ultrasonic exciter attached to the cell that agitates the liquid in the cell and brings the liquid and the dissolved gas into equilibrium conditions;e.

Abstract: A bidirectional repeater apparatus includes a plurality of line drivers for driving data signals in the opposite direction over communication lines, logic circuit means operated in response to the driving of the data signals over the communication line for generating trigger signals, a dual one-shot circuit connected to said logic circuit means for enabling the operation of the line drivers when triggered and a feedback circuit operated in response to the driving of a data signal over the communication line in one direction conditioning said logic circuit means to generate a trigger signal operating one of the one-shot circuits to output a signal enabling one of the line drivers to drive a data signal in the opposite direction over the communication line.

Abstract: A package labeling system for applying an adhesively backed label, which is received from a label transport, preferably to the bottom of a package through a label application opening in the package support, includes an applicator body and a suction tube extending through the applicator body and defining a suction opening above the body. A label supporting plate is positioned above the applicator body and pivotally mounted thereon. The plate defines a suction tube aperture and is pivotable from a horizontal position in which the suction opening is positioned within the aperture to inclined positions in which the aperture is raised above the suction opening. A spring urges the plate into its horizontal position and a partial vacuum is applied to the suction tube. A means for moving the applicator between a first position, adjacent the label transport, and a second position, is provided.

Abstract: A commodity identification key carrying apertures arranged in rows and columns for organization of commodity identification, parity checking, and clock control information, provision for manually controlled reading of the commodity identification information into storage, provision for repeatedly reading the commodity information out of storage and repeatedly checking the parity thereof, and provision for controlling the printing of a machine readable bar code representative of a commodity identification.
