Patent application numberDescriptionPublished
20120031056Container End Closure With Optional Secondary Vent Opening - The present invention relates to an opening device for a beverage container. More specifically, the invention relates to a metal end closure having a primary opening area and at least one optional secondary vent opening which can be opened with the same pull tab. The primary opening area of the metal end closure may be opened by utilizing a pull tab interconnected to a central panel, the pull tab being adapted for applying a downward force to form a first opening. Subsequently, the pull tab is rotated and the tail end lifted to form a second opening in the end closure.02-09-2012

20100331242METHOD OF USING LECTINS FOR PREVENTION AND TREATMENT OF ORAL AND ALIMENTARY TRACT DISORDERS - Infectious diseases caused by pathogenic microorganisms resident in the alimentary tract of humans and animals can be prevented and treated by administering to the alimentary tract of the human or animal an effective amount of a composition containing at least one lectin capable of binding to an infective microorganism and diminishing its infective capability of the microorganism. The lectin is administered dispensed in a pharmaceutically acceptable non-toxic vehicle. Peptic ulcer disease caused by infection with 12-30-2010

20110260427SOUND MAKER FOR USE ON A BICYCLE - A sound generating apparatus includes a substantially U-shaped member having first and second panels, inner surface and outer surfaces. An arcuate section can be positioned on the inner surface of the U-shaped member for receiving and frictionally engaging a part of a bicycle fork. Two hollow ear sections can be positioned on the outer surface of the U-shaped member, each of the ear sections having an outer side and an inner side whereby exerting pressure on the outer sides of the ear sections widens an opening defined by the arcuate section to receive the bicycle fork part, and releasing the pressure on the ear sections allows the arcuate section to tighten around the bicycle fork part and frictionally engage the bicycle fork part. The arcuate section can define an arc of about 220 degrees.10-27-2011

20080298765Terminal with internal environmental seal - An environmentally sealed closure, such as a terminal for terminated ends of fiber optic cables, includes a housing having a wall defining an interior volume. A floating sealing assembly is provided including a first plate, a seal member and a second plate arranged in a stack within the interior volume. The seal member has an outer sealing edge for contacting the wall of the housing, which may be straight and/or chamfered. Fiber optic cables extend through the sealing assembly so that the terminated ends are within the splice area. The floating sealing assembly is compressed so as to place the outer sealing edge of the seal member in sealing contact with the wall of the housing. When a pressure differential exists between the splice area and the outside of the housing only one of the first or second plates moves along the longitudinal axis to further compress the seal member and increase sealing between the outer sealing edge and the housing wall.12-04-2008
