Assignee:

International Safety Instruments, Inc. - Lawrenceville GA

International Classification:

A62B 700

US Classification:

141 21

Abstract:

A self contained braathing apparatus (SCBA) has a fill valve for filling the air tank while a user is wearing the SCBA. An SCBA conventionally has a pressure gauge or other apparatus on a hose that extends around generally to the front of the user, and this apparatus is provided with a quick disconnect valve as a tank fill valve. Such appratus must include a flow limiting orifice, and the present invention includes a check valve in parallel with the orifice so a substantial air flow can be obtained in one direction while the flow in the opposite direction is limited to the safety-mandated small flow.

US Classification:

424423

Abstract:

An in vivo model for human bone metabolism. Human marrow stromal fibroblasts are isolated, expanded in culture, combined with ceramic powder (hydroxyapatite) delivery vehicles with or without fibrin glue and implanted into a mammal. This protocol results in the formation of self-maintained human bone which supports hematopoiesis. This model system can be used to screen compounds which inhibit or stimulate bone formation. The marrow stromal fibroblast delivery vehicles can be implanted into humans to augment bone implants or to repair bone defects.

International Classification:

F09B 3910

US Classification:

417572

Abstract:

A fluid compressor comprising a compression module for producing a compressed fluid, said compression module being enclosed in a compressor housing having a first side; and a hose reel assembly movably attached to the compressor housing, the hose reel assembly movable between a first position where the hose reel is adjacent the first side of the compressor housing and a second position wherein the hose reel assembly is located away from the first compressor housing side. The hose reel assembly may be moved to the second position away from the first housing side by swinging the hose reel assembly up away from the first side or pivoting the hose reel assembly to the side of the compressor.
