Publication number: 20070235573Abstract: Apparatus for reducing materials for disposal having a frame for supporting a material reduction station, a holding station and a disposal station. The reduction station has a first and second reduction zone and a hopper with a first passage arranged to convey materials reduced or shredded by cutting elements to second cutting elements, and a second passage arranged to convey materials directly to the second cutting elements. The second passage has a retardation arrangement for retarding materials downstream from flowing past and out through the second passage. A perforated screen cooperates with the second cutting elements to reduce the materials to a size determined by the size of the perforations. The holding station includes a tray having a holding space for temporarily holding reduced materials from the second reduction zone, and an outlet port in communication with a container in the disposal station.Type: ApplicationFiled: June 8, 2005Publication date: October 11, 2007Inventor: Raymond Johnson

Publication number: 20070064986Abstract: A system and method for monitoring hand washing or application of a disinfectant wherein a pattern recognition algorithm executed in a computer compares one or more digitized images of a user going through hand washing or disinfectant application motions with a reference set of images and creates a pass/fail report. An input device, digitizer and computer used in monitoring hand washing or application of a disinfectant may also be used as part of a touchless identification system to authenticate the user wherein an image processing algorithm and a mathematical algorithm executed in the computer identifies the user based on data extracted from the user's digitized hand images.Type: ApplicationFiled: November 28, 2005Publication date: March 22, 2007Inventor: Raymond Johnson

Publication number: 20060231462Abstract: Crude oil can be refined through a filtration media. Cavitation bubbles having localized areas of very high temperatures and pressures may be created thereby causing several physical and chemical phenomena, including thermal cracking of carbon-carbon bonds as the crude moves through the flux cartridge membrane. Heavy hydrocarbons are residues are thereby cracked into smaller lowering boiling molecules having a higher API gravity. Once the relatively smaller hydrocarbons pass through the flux cartridge membrane into the flux cartridge, the effluent can be routed to a second separator annulus. It should also be pointed out that lighter hydrocarbons formed can volatilize and special provisions may be needed to efficiently capture these gases.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 17, 2006Publication date: October 19, 2006Inventor: Raymond Johnson

Publication number: 20050178905Abstract: A method and apparatus for separating particles and dissolved matter from a fluid stream incorporated in an aircraft rinse system. The present invention includes a first pressure source which transports collected rinse fluid into a separator annulus with a filter element disposed therein. The untreated fluid is placed under appropriate pressure sufficient to produce turbulent flow, increased particle kinetics and/or cavitation physics allowing the desired fluid to penetrate and pass into and through the filter media. The filtered fluid is then transported to a collection tank. The contaminant particulate matter retained on the exterior of the filter media may be removed by the instantenous reverse pressurization of the separator annulus by a second pressure source thereby removing the contaminant particles away from contact with the filter media, and which may then be transported to a waste collection tank or a concentrator for further treatment.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 3, 2004Publication date: August 18, 2005Inventors: Raymond Johnson, Markley Johnson, Rodney Grage
