Abstract: A system, device and method for sterilizing or decontaminating an object that includes a sealable sterilizing chamber (12) and a sterilant gas-generating composition (24) that preferably generates NO or a mixture of NO and NO2. The preferred sterilant gas-generating composition (24) includes a carbon-based diazeniumdiolate compound and a powdered acid.

Abstract: Optical waveguide devices characterized by low loss for a fundamental mode and high loss for higher order modes are disclosed. The high loss is sufficiently high that the waveguide is effectively single-moded.

Abstract: A system indicates fault conditions in an automated banking machine apparatus. A journal printer (12, 106) is supplied with paper from a paper supply (16, 112). A paper take-up device (18, 114) receives paper from the printer. Movement of the take-up device is sensed by a detector (70, 146, 124). The detector is connected to an electronic circuit (74, 118) including a processor (76, 120). Fault signals are generated by the electronic circuit responsive to the detector sensing conditions representative of a paper jam and a paper break.

Abstract: A facile, low temperature and low pressure method for the preparation of a wide range of phase pure ABO2 compositions.

Abstract: An industrial scale fire fighting nozzle and method, the nozzle having a selectively adjustable discharge gap and providing for gap coordinated, independently selectable additive proportioning ratio selection, the method including discharging fire fighting fluid at a selectively adjustable flow rate with an independently selectable, gap coordinated adjustable additive proportioning ratio, and use of reinforced high temperature polymer for at least a barrel element or a bafflehead element component.

Abstract: An automated banking machine is operative to dispense cash to authorized users. The user interface of the machine includes features for detection of fraudulent activities at the machine. Sensors are provided for detecting the installation of unauthorized card reading devices adjacent the card reader. Vibration sensors are used to detect the installation of unauthorized card reading or bill trap devices. A machine controller or other processor is programmed to detect events or circumstances which may indicate that improper activity is occurring. Cameras are used to capture images of the user interface. Changes in the images are analyzed by a computer to detect the installation of unauthorized devices.

Abstract: A bleacher chair for use with a bleacher structure having tiers of bleacher seating of a standard width, said bleacher chair comprising a chair portion, two lateral arm members, a forward member, and a rearward member and wherein the chair portion can rest upon a bleacher seat, and the rearward member does not contact the bleacher structure in a way which would interfere with the placement of the chair portion upon a bleacher seat. A method for vending the bleacher chair of the present invention to those attending events with bleacher seating is also provided.

Abstract: An automatic titration apparatus for optically determining incompatibility of petroleum oils. The apparatus includes reservoirs for oil and solvent, a sealed temperature-controlled mixing vessel, including a liquid mixer, pumps and transfer lines for dispensing oil and solvent from said reservoirs to said mixing vessel wherein oil and solvent are mixed to form a mixture, an aggregate detector, transfer lines for transferring said mixture to the aggregate detector, and a computer programmed to operate and monitor all elements of said apparatus.

Abstract: A method and system for the storage and dispensing of medical grade liquid oxygen are provided. Medical grade liquid oxygen is stored in a storage tank located within a medical facility which is capable of dispensing liquid oxygen to portable liquid oxygen reservoirs and to portable liquid oxygen tanks, as well as delivering oxygen gas through a gas pipeline network. The storage tank is filled through a fill station exterior to the facility. A fixed price billing method is provided for the cost of the liquid oxygen delivered for use in the system. Economical storage, delivery and billing services are thereby provided to medium sized facilities such as nursing homes or extended care facilities which utilize both liquid and gaseous oxygen but cannot afford to install the very large exterior liquid oxygen tanks used by major hospitals and research facilities. Increased safety in the storage and dispensing of the liquid oxygen is provided in accordance with the present invention.

Abstract: A tick removing device includes a body member that includes a fulcrum portion and a pair arms. Each of the arms has a main portion that is coupled to the fulcrum portion. The head portion of each of the arms is for engaging a portion of a body of the tick. A distance between the head portion of each of the arms increases when a gap between the main portions of each of the arms is decreased by pressure for the fingers of the user. The head of one of the arms abuts the head portion of the other of the arms when pressure from the fingers on the main portion of each of the arms is released such that the head portion of each of the arms is for cooperatively securing the body member to the tick.

Abstract: A method and system for co-verifying a hardware simulation of a field-programmable-system-level integrated circuit (FPSLIC) and a software simulation of the field-programmable-system-level integrated circuit. A FPSLIC device is simulated in hardware, and a simulator-port layout of the FPSLIC device is generated. In software, the method separately simulates, with an instruction-set simulator, the FPSLIC device, and outputs register contents from the instruction-set software. The contents from the simulator-port layout are verified with the register contents. Additionally, the method may further include outputting peripheral contents from the instruction-set simulator, and verifying contents from the simulator-port layout with the peripheral contents. UART contents also may be outputted from the instruction-set simulator, and verified with contents from the simulator-port layout with the UART contents.
