  • Patent number: 11022108
    Abstract: A rotor device for a peristaltic pump containing a housing, a supporting shaft extending in an axial direction and being mounted in the housing, a rotor which contains a rotor-body mounted on the supporting shaft and extending in a radial direction from the supporting shaft and a plurality of rollers, mounted on the radially outer portion of the rotor-body and a driving device connected to the supporting shaft for driving the rotor, in which the peristaltic pump further contains a number of roller-markers corresponding to the number of rollers, in which the roller-markers indicate a dead zone, the roller-markers are provided directly or indirectly on the supporting shaft.

  • Patent number: 6645787
    Abstract: A method for improving CdZnTe-based gamma-ray detectors is presented. A CdZnTe detector/crystal is exposed to acoustic waves. After exposure to acoustic waves, the CdZnTe gamma-detector gains higher resistivity and exhibits better spectral resolution and greater sensitivity. Further, when a batch of detectors is made according to the method of the present invention, the properties of the crystals are more homogenous, allowing for cheaper and more standardized detectors.
