Patent number: 9028578Abstract: A filter arrangement for a system within which fluid is filtered and an associated method of providing the arrangement. A frame of the arrangement includes an outer periphery shape that is complementary to a shape for location of the filter arrangement therein and a plurality of filter cartridge seat slots arranged in V-shaped pairs. Each filter cartridge seat slot provides a sub-aperture for removably receiving a respective filter cartridge in a direction transverse to the flow proceeding through the sub-aperture. The filter arrangement includes a plurality of filter cartridges that are removably located within respective filter cartridge seat slots. The filter arrangement includes a non-permanent sealing arrangement between the filter cartridges and the frame so that flow does not by-pass filter media. The non-permanent arrangement permits removal of the filter cartridges from the frame and replacement with new filter cartridges upon the frame.Type: GrantFiled: February 28, 2013Date of Patent: May 12, 2015Assignee: BHA Altair, LLCInventors: Jien Chin, Cynthia Marie Polizzi, William Keith Albert Eyers, Stephen Bartlett

Publication number: 20140206925Abstract: Disclosed is a device for contact radiotherapy, comprising a set of applicators, wherein each applicator comprises a hollow spherical head, with different diameters, the external surface of which is able to be in contact with a cavity of a living tissue and the internal surface of which defines an internal space able to receive a source of x-rays, with at least one area of the head is intended to have x-rays pass through it, and the thickness of said area depends on the diameter of the head configured so that the dose of x-rays produced at the external surface is between 18 and 22 gray. Also disclosed is a system for contact radiotherapy comprising said device. The disclosed device and system apply particularly to per-operative radiotherapy, in that the irradiation is produced in contact with the ablation bed of the tumour, in particular in the breast, during the operation.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 20, 2012Publication date: July 24, 2014Inventors: Jean-Pierre Gerard, Keith Albert Spanswick, Serge Marcie, Richard Trimaud, Bernard Flipo, Inès Raoust

Patent number: 8690980Abstract: A filter pocket arrangement that provides increased filter media area is described. In one embodiment, each filter pocket includes a pocket mouth that attaches to a filter frame and a pocket body extending longitudinally away from the pocket mouth to a closed end. The closed end is folded back inward towards the pocket mouth to form a tuck fold that defines a first sub-filter pocket and a second sub-filter pocket at the pocket mouth. The first sub-filter pocket and the second sub-filter pocket each has a sub-pocket mouth that coincides with a portion of the pocket mouth, with sidewalls extending longitudinally therefrom to form an apex at the closed end of the filter pocket. The first sub-filter pocket is separated from the second sub-filter pocket by the tuck fold.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2010Date of Patent: April 8, 2014Assignee: BHA Altair, LLCInventors: William Keith Albert Eyers, Przemyslaw Krzyszof Nikolin
