  • Patent number: 9592171
    Abstract: Hyperbaric chamber control system and apparatus and related methods. A system for controlling, measuring, and reporting hyperbaric chamber sessions using the partial pressure of oxygen as the lead variable. Air is gently flushed from the bottom of the chamber, upwards, and a nostril-level oxygen pickup measures oxygen concentration in the chamber. Chamber pressure and oxygen concentration values are used to calculate the partial pressure of oxygen, and the session time is adjusted so that a subject treatment accurately reflects prescribed treatment.

  • Patent number: 5470218
    Abstract: An improved injection blow molding apparatus. The apparatus includes an injection blow molding machine having work stations and molds. The apparatus includes a process controller for operating the blow molding machine according to a set of processing parameters. Each processing parameter has a respective desired operating range. The apparatus includes a touch screen for inputting signals to the processor for commanding the process controller to adjust the processing parameters. Display software and hardware coupled to the process controller and the touch screen cause the monitor to display respective icons representing each processing parameter. The value of each respective processing parameter is displayed adjacent to the icon. Graphing software generates signals which are transmitted to the monitor. The monitor displays a graph of the selected processing parameter value as a function of time.
