Patent number: 11013819Abstract: A scalable, portable and modular chlorine dioxide fumigant decontamination system having an activating area and a neutralizing area which may be housed separately or as a single operationally connected unit, and which may be configured as a closed loop system connected to a decontamination chamber for decontamination of articles, or as an open loop system for decontamination of interiors and large confined spaces, and employing a specialized activating cup that is permeable to air yet substantially impermeable to water and chlorine dioxide reaction by-products such that directing air through the activation cup releases nearly pure chlorine dioxide fumigant. Methods and articles relating to the system are also described.Type: GrantFiled: February 19, 2018Date of Patent: May 25, 2021Assignee: Controlled Performance with Gases, LLCInventors: Lawrence F. Bender, James F. Knoer

Patent number: 8256635Abstract: A collapsible cargo container assembly includes a collapsible skeleton framework defining a front, rear and opposite sides of the container assembly and includes a plurality of generally parallel ribs spaced from and generally planar to each other when the container assembly is in an open condition. A plurality of articulated braces are connected to and extend between the ribs to hold the ribs in spaced relationship in the open condition of the container assembly. The articulated braces are foldable to position the ribs in juxtaposition alongside each other in a collapsed condition of the container assembly. A flexible cover is positioned substantially about the collapsible framework and is fixed thereto for folding therewith as the framework moves back-and-forth between the open and collapsed conditions thereof.Type: GrantFiled: September 2, 2010Date of Patent: September 4, 2012Assignee: Aero Containers International, LLCInventors: David W. Schardein, Lawrence F. Bender

Patent number: 7471026Abstract: A brushless electric motor includes a housing with a pair of disc-shaped end plates fixed relative to the housing in a spaced, generally parallel relationship to each other. A pair of bearings are respectively positioned in the end discs. A motor shaft is rotatably journalled in the bearings for rotation about its axis. A stator assembly is supported by the housing intermediate the end plates and through which the motor shaft passes. The stator assembly includes a plurality of individual wire-wound coils in a toroidal array around the axis of the shaft. The stator assembly has recesses in opposite faces thereof. A pair of disc-shaped rotor assemblies are respectively disposed within the recesses in the opposite faces of the stator assembly inside the end plates.Type: GrantFiled: March 13, 2006Date of Patent: December 30, 2008Assignee: ISCA Innovatons, LLCInventor: Lawrence F.
