Patents by Inventor Mickey Mann

Mickey Mann has filed for patents to protect the following inventions. This listing includes patent applications that are pending as well as patents that have already been granted by the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO).

  • Chromatography column method of variable speed operation
    Patent number: 8845903
    Abstract: A chromatography column is normally filled with a slurry of media for operation. A piston normally compacts the slurry in the column. The piston moves through a cavity in communication with both a slurry inlet and slurry ports which are in communication with the interior of the chromatography column. A controller is configured to automatically adjust piston speeds along elevation zones of operation. Furthermore, presetting specific speeds less the maximum speed can be accomplished with the controller. A pressure sensor may also be employed to assist in switching speed of operation of the piston under particular pressure events.
    Type: Grant

  • Chromatography column and method of operation
    Patent number: 7402251
    Abstract: A chromatography column is normally filled with a slurry of media for operation. A piston normally compacts the slurry in the column. The piston moves through a cavity in communication with both a slurry inlet and slurry ports which are in communication with the interior of the chromatography column. A controller receiving inputs from at least one of position sensors and a pressure sensor directs movement of the plunger in an operational step selected from the group of a selected movement and up to a selected pressure.
