  • Patent number: 7854639
    Abstract: A flotation assembly preferably, but not necessarily, of the type installed beneath the seat of a commercial airline and comprising a base structured and configured to define a life vest of the type intended to support an individual in a body of water. A monitoring device preferably comprises a radio frequency identification device or RFID tag, structured for wireless communication, is connected to the life vest in a predetermined location which generally restricts physical access thereto, but does not interfere with wireless communication therewith. As such, an appropriate reader assembly may be brought into the general vicinity of the RFID tags associated with a plurality of the life vests, thereby facilitating the efficient inspection of each of the life vests.

  • Patent number: 5535946
    Abstract: The present invention discloses a method for safely and easily shredding a variety of material particularly material having a low melt temperature and/or containing material sensitive to high static electric charges, such as 1.1 and 1.3 class material. The method comprises applying a cloud of gas vapor onto the shredding means to cool the shredding means to a temperature below that of the melt temperature of the material being shredded and to also reduce the static electric charge on the resulting particles of material which may develop during the shredding process. Further described is an apparatus for carrying out the method.
