20100047439 | Barrier coating corrosion control methods and systems for interior piping systems - Methods and systems for providing cleaning and providing barrier coatings to interior wall surfaces of small diameter metal and composite piping systems in buildings. An entire piping system can be cleaned in one single pass by dry particulates forced by air throughout the building piping system by an external generator, and the entire piping system can be coated in one single pass by a machine also connected exterior to the piping system. Small diameter pipes can be protected by the effects of water corrosion, erosion and electrolysis, extending the life of small diameter piping systems such as copper, steel, lead, brass, cast iron piping and piping systems made of composite materials. The invention meets the National Sanitation Foundation standard for products and services that come into contact with potable water, and the American Water Works Association. Coatings can be applied to pipes having diameters of approximately ⅜″ up to approximately 6″ so that entire piping systems such as potable water lines, natural gas lines, HVAC piping systems, drain lines, and fire sprinkler systems in buildings such as single-family homes to smaller walk-up style apartments to multi-floor concrete high-rise hotel/resort facilities and office towers, as well as high-rise apartment and condominium buildings and schools, can be cleaned and coated to pipes within existing walls. The barrier coating forms an approximately 4 mils or greater covering to the inside of pipes. Entire buildings can return to service within approximately 24 to approximately 96 hours depending on the size of the building piping system. | 02-25-2010 |
20100269756 | SQUIRREL PROOF BIRDFEEDER - A bird feeder for effectively deterring squirrels and other unwanted animals from accessing the bird feed deposited therein. The bird feeder includes a pair of feeder bins positioned at generally opposite ends of the feeder and a pivot device positioned approximately midway between and removably coupled with the pair of feeder bins. | 10-28-2010 |
20100270332 | EPOXY DISPENSER - A dispenser for dispensing a fluid under high pressure includes: a housing; two valves within the housing and arranged parallel relative to one another; an actuator assembly within the housing and including a single rigid shaft which is connected to the valves and is configured for simultaneously opening and closing the valves. | 10-28-2010 |
20100278668 | FLUID PUMP ASSEMBLY - A fluid pump assembly includes a double acting fluid cylinder and a pump. The fluid cylinder includes a housing, a piston reciprocally disposed within the housing, and a piston rod carrying the piston and extending from the housing. The piston rod has an end. A pump includes a pump body, a pressure loaded seal and a wiper seal. The pump body has a pump chamber and a rod port. The piston rod extends through the rod port and the end is positioned within the pump chamber. The pressure loaded seal is positioned within the rod port around the piston rod and has a pressure loaded end face toward the pump chamber. The wiper seal is positioned within the rod port around the piston rod on a side of the pressure loaded seal opposite from the pump chamber. | 11-04-2010 |
20100290937 | FLUID PUMP ASSEMBLY - A fluid pump assembly includes a double acting fluid cylinder with a housing, a piston reciprocally disposed within the housing, and a piston rod carrying the piston and extending from the housing. The piston rod has an end. A pump includes a pump body, a pressure loaded seal and a wiper seal. The pump body has a fluid inlet, a pump chamber and a rod port. The inlet is configured for receiving a fluid to be pumped and is in fluid communication with the pump chamber. The piston rod extends through the rod port and the end is positioned within the pump chamber. The pressure loaded seal is positioned within the rod port around the piston rod and has a pressure loaded end face toward the pump chamber. The wiper seal is positioned within the rod port around the piston rod on a side of the pressure loaded seal opposite from the pump chamber. The pump body further has a scavenging groove in an area between the pressure loaded seal and the wiper seal. The scavenging groove is in fluid communication with the inlet, whereby any fluid which leaks past the pressure loaded seal is returned to the inlet. | 11-18-2010 |
20100319623 | SQUIRREL PROOF FEEDER - A bird feeder for effectively deterring squirrels and other unwanted animals from accessing the bird feed deposited therein. The bird feeder includes at least two detachable feeder bins positioned along an edge of a central module of the feeder and a pivot device removably coupled with the central module and positioned at approximately a center of a diameter of said central module. | 12-23-2010 |
20120021124 | Barrier Coating Corrosion Control Methods and Systems for Interior Piping Systems - Methods and process steps for mapping, cleaning and providing barrier coatings to interior walls of piping systems. An entire piping system can be cleaned in one single pass by dry particulates forced by air and the piping system coated in one single pass. Pipes can be protected from water corrosion, erosion and electrolysis. Pipes having diameters of approximately ⅜″ up to approximately 6″ are treatable. Piping systems such as potable water lines, natural gas lines, HVAC, drains, and fire sprinkler systems in homes, apartments, high-rise hotel/resorts, office towers, high-rise apartment and condominiums and schools, can be treated. The coating forms an approximately 4 mils or greater covering inside the pipes. Buildings can return to service within approximately 24 to approximately 96 hours. | 01-26-2012 |
