  • Publication number: 20240099438
    Abstract: In various embodiments, a carrying bag is disclosed which includes a one or more security panel assemblies comprising a first flexible material layer and a polymeric fiber matrix, such as a polymer fiber-based cut-resistant fabric, matrix or mesh. Various carrying straps are disclosed which include a first flexible fabric or webbing; and a second flexible fabric or webbing comprising a polymeric fiber matrix. Additional polymeric fibers, filaments, cables, threads or yarns may be included in the security panel assemblies and straps, such as cut-resistant monofilament and multifilament fibers comprised of a polyethylene such as ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMAWPE), high-modulus polyethylene (HMPE), or High Performance Polyethylene (HPPE), for example.

  • Patent number: 7321281
    Abstract: A high voltage relay comprises a hermitically sealed housing made of ethylene vinyl alcohol (EVOH) and having internal components for changing the state of said relay. Terminals are electrically connected to the internal components for connection to external circuitry and applying an electrical signal to control the state of the relay. A nitrogen and sulfur hexafluoride gas fills the housing to allow for reliable high voltage operation with the housing having low permeability to the molecules of the gas.

  • Publication number: 20060217662
    Abstract: A fluid delivery device that may be used in any orientation is presented. The device includes a container, a first fluid in the container space, an inlet opening attached to a bladder, and an outlet opening. A second fluid enters the container through the inlet opening. The bladder, which receives the second fluid as it enters the container, expands with the amount of second fluid that is received. As more of the second fluid is received and the bladder expands, the first fluid is pushed out of the container through the outlet opening. The device may be used as a tire repair system, for example by coupling the inlet opening to an air compressor and coupling the outlet tube to a tire. The first fluid that's in the container space would be a sealant composition in this case. Different embodiments of the bladder are possible depending on the application.
