Abstract: A filtering apparatus (1) to filter solid litter from stormwater. The apparatus (1) comprises an inclined filter grate (2) which is located above an outlet (4). The grate (2) extends downwardly from the inlet (3) so that litter is filtered from the stream by the grate 2, with the litter being directed towards a catchment surface (8).

Abstract: A digital image capture system for a photo identification card wherein a housing contains a video camera and a tray that selectively moves through a formed slot in the housing between a first fully inserted position within the housing and a second fully open position outside of the housing. The tray has a formed recess that receives an insert plate. The insert plate has a formed opening for holding a photo identification card of a person. Different insert plates could be utilized under the teachings of the present invention having different-sized formed openings for different-sized photo identification cards. The photo identification card is placed into the formed opening and then the tray is slid into the fully inserted position in the housing. A magnet in the housing firmly holds the tray in the fully inserted position and this fully inserted position is sensed by a micro-switch that becomes activated to turn on a pair of opposing lamps to fully illuminate the photo identification card in the tray.

Abstract: A fluid flow meter comprising a flow tube of generally circular cross section in which is mounted a pair of generally semicircular vanes arranged for pivotal movement about a common diametral axis, said vanes being biased by resilient means into positions so as to close the tube and fluid flow indicating means for measuring gas flow rates in the range including flare gas flows and furnace combustion air flows.
