  • Patent number: 11331589
    Abstract: Filling a balloon with a volume of material, the balloon having an adhesive staging segment formed about a peripheral surface of the moldable adhesive cross sectioned profile of the moldable adhesive ring. Retaining the volume of material within an expansion cavity of the balloon by applying a tensile force in a longitudinal direction between ends of the tubular balloon neck segment to expose the moldable adhesive ring from the adhesive staging segment and compressing the exposed moldable adhesive ring to form a seal. The material can be a gas, air, Helium, etc. A tether can be inserted into the balloon neck prior to filling and sealing, where the sealing step secures the tether to the balloon.

  • Patent number: 10907260
    Abstract: Electrolyzer devices (e.g., for Brown's gas production, hydrogen production, other electrolysis processes) including a containment vessel configured to be filled with an electrolyte solution, with a plurality of electrically conductive plates positioned therein. Each plate may be oriented vertically, where two or more of the plates are electrode plates. The electrode plates may extend outside of the containment vessel of the electrolyzer so that electrical connections to the electrode plates can be made outside of the containment vessel of the electrolyzer. No electrical connections are made on a sealed interior of the containment vessel. Each plate may include an insular wrap around the edges of each plate. The insular wrap may include grooves formed into the insular wrap into which the plates are received. Such grooves may negate the need for any gaskets. The insular wrap may include holes for passage of the solution into and out of the cells.

  • Patent number: 10675549
    Abstract: A method of forming a self-sealing balloon by applying an adhesive to a balloon form, then applying material to the balloon form to create the balloon. The adhesive is applied forming an annular adhesive ring. The adhesive can be applied using a fiberization process. The balloon form can be rotated during the adhesive application process. The adhesive can be encapsulated within an adhesive staging segment formed within a neck segment of the balloon. Airflow can be directed to the interface between an unfinished lip of the balloon material and the surface of the balloon form to aid in at least one of a forming process and a release process. The adhesive ring can be at least partially encapsulated within an adhesive staging segment of the balloon neck segment.

  • Patent number: 10422045
    Abstract: An improved steel plate alkali electrolyzer uses an anode steel plate, by-polar steel plates, and a cathode steel plate (the number of bi-polar plated is determined by the voltage applied, the formula explained in Claim). The steel plate edges are wrapped with an insulating material to hold them in precise alignment. This unit is housed in a containment vessel, with the anode and cathode steel plates extending past the outside of the containment vessel to make electrical connections outside of liquid filled vessel. Shape and arrangement of the plates enables the gas production to create a circulating electrolyte (without the use of a pump) that produces a cooler operating and more efficient production of Brown's gas per watt, and less expensive to construction than any other known electrolyzer. Design is scalable allowing for a wide range of gas production and applications.

  • Patent number: 10328353
    Abstract: A self-sealing balloon comprising a tubular balloon neck segment extending from an opening of a balloon gas retaining expansion cavity. A bead of moldable adhesive material is applied in a ring about an interior circumference of a neck portion of the balloon forming a dispensed adhesive roll. The dispensed adhesive roll is at least partially encapsulated within an adhesive staging segment. The adhesive staging segment can be encased within a rolled lip bead by any suitable process. The rolling process aids in forming the ring-shaped adhesive. In use, the balloon would be inflated. The lip bead would be unrolled, exposing the adhesive ring. The moldable adhesive would be compressed forming a seal, entrapping pressurized air within the balloon gas retaining expansion cavity. This provides a low cost, simple self-sealing solution for a balloon.

  • Patent number: 9174141
    Abstract: A self-sealing balloon comprising a tubular balloon neck segment extending from an opening of a balloon gas retaining expansion cavity. A bead of adhesive material is applied in a loop about an interior circumference of a neck portion of the balloon forming a dispensed adhesive roll. The dispensed adhesive roll is at least partially encapsulated within an adhesive staging segment. The adhesive staging segment is shaped into a loop by at least one roller. The roller extends the balloon neck material and pulls the ring downward, drawing the ring into the adhesive staging segment. The ring aids in forming the loop. In use, the balloon would be inflated. The neck would be stretched, exposing the adhesive ring. The ring would be compressed forming a seal, entrapping pressurized air within the balloon gas retaining expansion cavity. This provides a low cost, simple self-sealing solution for a balloon.
