Filed:

Mar 24, 2003

Appl. No.:

10/395952

Inventors:

Terrence Burke - Kirkwood MO, US
Robin Kern - Fenton MO, US
Brian Potts - Troy IL, US
Ronald Richardson - Ellisville MO, US

Assignee:

Whitmire Micro-Gen Research Laboratories, Inc.

International Classification:

A01N025/00
A01N025/08

US Classification:

424/410000

Abstract:

An aqueous sucrose-containing insect bait formulation may be stabilized against short term degradation or loss of sweetness by incorporating borax in the aqueous bait formulation. Stabilization against degradation or loss of sweetness at higher temperatures can be achieved by incorporating borax and an antimicrobial agent in the aqueous bait formulation. Preferably, borax is present in an amount ranging from approximately 0.1 to 10% by weight and an antimicrobial agent is present in an amount of approximately 0.2% by weight.

Appl. No.:

8/969940

Inventors:

Ronald W. Richardson - Essexville MI
James Harrington - Bay City MI

Assignee:

RWC, Inc. - Bay City MI

International Classification:

B65B 3100

US Classification:

53403

Abstract:

An apparatus for charging a closed metallic canister with a gas under pressure comprising means for forming a gas filling opening in the canister, and dispensing means for sequentially injecting a high pressure gas through the gas filling opening to charge the canister, and depositing and fusing a fusible body in the gas filling opening, while continuing to inject gas into the canister and utilize the force of the gas to urge the dispensing means into sealing engagement with the canister being charged.

Inventors:

Ronald W. Richardson - Essexville MI

Assignee:

RWC, Inc. - Bay City MI

International Classification:

B23K 1100
B65B 3102
F16F 943
F17C 506

US Classification:

2191171

Abstract:

A method and apparatus for supplying an inert gas under extreme pressure to a weldable air bag canister having a gas-charging opening in one end wall, and weld sealing the opening. The canister, and a composite welding head and weld ball supplying assembly, having a lower nose with a seal surrounding a ball dispensing opening therein, are relatively moved axially to seal off the opening in the canister end wall. Then, prior to pressurizing the assembly, an individual ball is presupplied through a passageway seal system to a ball delivery member inboard of the seals which are provided in the welding head and weld ball supplying assembly. Thereafter, the composite assembly is charged with gas under a heavy pressure measured in thousands of pounds per square inch, and a raiseable and lowerable welding electrode, carried by the assembly axially in alignment with the ball receiving chamber and ball dispensing opening, delivers welding current to melt collapse the ball to seal the opening. Finally, the electrode is moved back to retracted position and the assembly is depressurized.

US Classification:

53 80

Abstract:

An apparatus for charging a metallic canister having a filler opening therein with a gas under pressure and then sealing the opening to provide a closed, pressurized canister including means having a guide passageway therethrough, engageable with the canister in sealing engagement with the guide passageway communicating with the filler opening of the canister, means for conveying a gas under pressure to the guide passageway of the sealing means when the sealing means is disposed in sealing engagement with the canister, rotary means for dispensing a welding ball for delivery through the sealing means to be deposited on the canister across the filler opening therein and means for fusing the welding ball when positioned on the canister to close the filler opening in the canister.
