US Patent:

8141682, Mar 27, 2012

Filed:

Aug 3, 2009

Appl. No.:

12/462389

Inventors:

Ronald E. White - Newport Beach CA, US

International Classification:

E06C 7/00

US Classification:

182106, 182 93

Abstract:

A first embodiment of the security apparatus comprises a retaining collar; a plurality of segments forming a generally frusta-conical enclosure, with one or more of the segments having an access opening therein; and a lockable access door covering the opening. The retaining collar is separable into portions that conforms to the shape of the periphery and are coupled together around the structure. The segments have an upper portion that attaches to the collar; and have a bottom portion that extends radically downwardly from the collar at an angle of about 30 degree; with the radial edges interconnected forming the enclosure. A second embodiment of the apparatus secures a ladder supported on a wall and a retaining bar; a plurality of segments forming a generally semi-frusta-conical enclosure, with one or more of the segments having an access opening therein; and a lockable access door covering the opening.

Appl. No.:

5/565149

Inventors:

Ronald D. White - Cypress CA
John F. Gibson - Long Beach CA

International Classification:

B05C 1110
B05C 500

US Classification:

118314

Abstract:

A plurality of glass slides having specimens such as blood smears disposed thereon are prepared for microscopic viewing by an apparatus which automatically applies preparation solutions to the slides such as stains and buffers and thereafter automatically drys the completed slides. The staining and buffering solutions are deposited evenly over the surfaces of the slides carrying the specimens by a timed operation of one or more electromechanically actuated aerosol dispensers which produce fine sprays of the desired preparation solutions. Simultaneously with the generated spray, the plurality of slides are rotated at a relatively slow rate to cause a uniform distribution of the spray particles on the slide surfaces. Following the staining and buffering mode, an automatic drying mode is initiated in which the plurality of slides are rotated at a relatively higher speed for a timed interval after which the apparatus automatically turns off and the completed slides may be removed from the apparatus.

Appl. No.:

5/688201

Inventors:

James Robert Hellerman - Tustin CA
Ronald Daniel White - Cypress CA
Harold Dwaine Palmer - Mission Viejo CA

International Classification:

B26B 1704

US Classification:

30124

Abstract:

A springy one-piece wire element is mounted on one arm of a wire cutter to hold a section of wire as it is clipped from a main wire. The wire element has a U-shaped portion which grips the cutter arm and holds a catch portion of the wire element adjacent the cutting edge to cooperate with the other cutter arm to hold the clipped wire section.

International Classification:

H01S 106
H03L 726

US Classification:

331 941

Abstract:

Optical pumping devices use light reflected from reflecting surfaces to provide a portion of the light incident on the photodetector. Conventional optical pumping devices experience a decay, over time, of the initial light intensity incident on the photodetector. The optical pumping device of the invention experiences reduced light intensity decay. The invention passivates the reflecting surfaces to eliminate tarnish and oxidation by pretarnishing the surfaces or covering the surfaces with a material whose reflectivity does not vary over time, such as gold.

Appl. No.:

7/836688

Inventors:

Ronald White - Englewood OH

International Classification:

F16J 1510

US Classification:

277212C

Abstract:

An extremely thin, conically shaped sealing member is interposed between the cooling element of a cryocooler and a dewar to permit the flow of cryogenic gases in one direction toward the cold end of the cooling element where the gas liquifies and is precluded from passing past the sealing member in an opposite direction so as to maintain the cryogenic liquid at such cooling element cold end when subjected to extreme acceleration forces. The sealing member can be formed in place directly onto the cooling element or separately fabricated from flat stock and subsequently fixedly secured to the cooling element.
