Patent number: 9955530Abstract: A feeding fluid warming system broadly includes a liner bag and an ultraviolet light warming device. The liner bag includes an inner bag that receives feeding fluid therein and an outer bag that holds warming fluid therein. The warming device includes a container, an ultraviolet light source, a temperature sensor, and a controller. The container receives the liner bag therein and the ultraviolet light source heats the warming fluid, which in turn heats the feeding fluid to temperatures within a thermal neutral zone so as to effectively and consistently maintains the fluids at these temperatures in addition to sterilizing the warming fluid.Type: GrantFiled: August 4, 2014Date of Patent: April 24, 2018Assignee: AMEDA, INC.Inventors: Scott Norman, Mark Petheram, Christian Darabant, Anthony Hash

Publication number: 20180093048Abstract: A fluid warming device for warming fluids and delivering the fluids to a patient comprises an electrical heating component, a temperature sensor, and a control unit. The electrical heating component warms fluid passing through a fluid-carrying tube and may be positioned along the fluid-carrying tube at a desired location or embedded in the fluid-carrying tube while the control unit is positioned such that the display and user inputs are accessible to a caregiver. The control unit activates the electrical heating component until the fluid-carrying tube is warmed to a desired temperature within a Thermal Neutral Zone (TNZ) as sensed by the temperature sensor.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2016Publication date: April 5, 2018Inventors: SCOTT NORMAN, MARK PETHERAM, ANTHONY HASH

Patent number: 8672545Abstract: A liner bag for use with a warming device has an inner bag and an outer bag. The inner bag has an inner chamber for receiving and at least partially enclosing a container. The outer bag has an outer chamber that at least partially encloses the inner bag and that receives and encloses a heat transfer fluid that transfers heat to the container. The side edges of the inner bag are joined to the side edges of the outer bag but the front face, rear face, and bottom edge of the inner bag are not joined to the front face, rear face, and bottom edge of the outer bag so that the heat transfer fluid may flow between the outer bag and inner bag for more effectively transferring heat to the inner bag and the container enclosed in the inner bag. The liner bag may also have an anti-microbial agent for disinfecting the heat transfer fluid placed in the outer bag.Type: GrantFiled: October 29, 2012Date of Patent: March 18, 2014Assignee: Neonatal Product Group, Inc.Inventors: Scott Norman, Mark Petheram

Patent number: 7354564Abstract: A method of conducting the partial oxidation to sulphur in at least one furnace of part of the hydrogen sulphide content of a feed gas mixture containing from 10 to 60% by volume of hydrogen sulphide but including at least one aromatic hydrocarbon impurity typically selected from benzene, xylene, toluene and ethyl benzene. A flame is created in the furnace. All the feed gas mixture is fed to the flame. Oxygen molecules are also fed to the flame. At last some of the oxygen molecules are supplied from a source of oxygen-enriched air to pure oxygen, and there is created in the flame at least one hot aromatic hydrocarbon impurity destruction region in which a substantial proportion, typically at least 75% by volume, of the aromatic hydrocarbon impurity is destroyed.Type: GrantFiled: February 20, 2003Date of Patent: April 8, 2008Assignee: The BOC Group, plc.Inventors: Stephen Rhys Graville, Jason Scott Norman
