Ronald Schaller 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).

  • Publication number: 20060166548
    Abstract: The present invention relates to an electrical connector apparatus, system and method for use with medical devices. In an alternative embodiment, the apparatus of the present invention comprises a first component comprising a first electrical connector adapted to electrically couple with a medical device, and a second component for establishing a connection with an electrical circuit, preferably a microprocessor. The device of the present invention is especially suited for use with medical devices useful in detecting extravasation in an individual undergoing a fluid injection procedure, because it allows for patient mobility, ease of connection and disconnection and more efficient use of medical equipment such as CT scanning equipment.
    Type: Application

  • Publication number: 20050252853
    Abstract: Materials for use in proton transport characterized by several formulas are disclosed. Mixed ion and electron conductors may include metals and/or ceramic electron conductors and a proton conducting material. Hydrogen separation membranes may include porous layers and an electolyte layer including a proton conducting material and an electron conductor. Hydrogen separation membranes may be formed by thermal spray techniques. Hydrogen separation membranes may include a catalyst layer. A method of separating hydrogen from a mixed gas stream includes passing the mixed gas through a first porous layer to an electrolyte layer, dissociating protons and electrons, diffusing the protons and electrons through the electrolyte layer, recombining them, and passing molecular hydrogen through a second porous layer.
