  • Patent number: 10155649
    Abstract: A dip tube assembly having a tubular portion and a coupler portion, the coupler configured for removable coupling with the mouth of a container storing contents therein. The coupler portion comprises a first end for connection with a tubular portion; a second end for connection with a connector assembly, wherein the connector assembly provides a pressure to the container; an outer surface and an inner surface with a thickness therebetween, wherein the inner surface defines a lumen that allows the chemical fluid to be conveyed from the chamber through the tubular portion to the connector assembly; and at least one pressure relief feature on the outer surface.

  • Publication number: 20160259892
    Abstract: A system for managing patient data for patients moving between a plurality of different patient care facilities includes a first interface for connecting to a plurality of patient care facilities to receive past patient care data. A second interface provides outputs to a current health care provider. A database stores the received past patient care data. A processor includes a set of instructions to configure the processor to monitor the past patient care data with respect to a particular patient and generate an alert to the health care provider over the second interface responsive to a determination that the past patient care data from the plurality of patient care facilities indicates a patient care problem.

  • Patent number: 9126749
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to novel and advantageous connector assemblies for use with a liner-based assembly. In one embodiment, a connector assembly for use with a liner-based assembly can include a pressure port, a dispense port, a headspace removal port, and a locking mechanism. The pressure port can be adapted for connection to a pressure source. The dispense port can be adapted for fluid communication with a source of material to be dispensed from the liner-based assembly. The headspace removal port may be configured for removing a gas from the liner-based assembly. The locking mechanism may be used for locking the connector to the liner-based assembly when contents therein are under pressure. In some embodiments, the dispense port and headspace removal port may be operably coupled providing a flow path for recirculation of the contents within a liner of the liner-based assembly.

  • Patent number: 7802496
    Abstract: A plier type stripper tool is provide for stripping sheathed cable of the type having a three spaced insulated power conducting wires, a ground wire disposed among the insulated wires and a sheath surrounding the wires. In one embodiment, the stripper tool includes a pair of levers having jaw, boss and handle portions. The stripper tool may further include a pivot joining the boss portions to enable relative movement of the levers about the pivot between open and closed portions. The jaw portions each have blade sections for coactively circumferentially cutting a cable sheath when the levers are moved from the open to the closed position.

  • Patent number: 6354196
    Abstract: An apparatus for gas treatment of products rises a housing having top, bottom and side walls; a conveyor belt for transporting the products along a first path in the housing; a tunnel having perforated walls and enclosing the conveyor belt along the first path; a gas circulation device communicating with the tunnel via the perforated walls for circulating gas into the tunnel in the form of gas jets impinging upon the products carried by the conveyor belt, and out of the tunnel in a return channel back to the gas circulation device; and a gas conditioning device positioned in the return channel. At least one substantially vertical part of the connecting walls of the high-pressure chamber is removable so as to provide access to the inside of the pressure chamber, and at least one of the side walls of the housing along the high-pressure chamber may be movable so as to widen the space between at least one wall and the high-pressure chamber.
