| 20090008103 | Rapid deployment fire retardent gel pack - The instant invention relates to a super absorbent polymeric material which when added to water produces a gel that enhances the fire extinguishing properties of the water. A pre-measured quantity of the polymeric gel material is packaged in a small easily opened dispenser type container. The disposable container is readily accessible for easy and rapid use of the gel by the individual under exigent circumstances to mitigate the effects of a rapid rise of temperature within a burning vehicle. The use of the gel providing sufficient time for the vehicle to leave the hostile zone prior to the individual exiting the vehicle. The gel provides extinguishing properties and is capable of long term storage. | 01-08-2009 |
| 20090013599 | Water retention mixture and method for spray application - A mixture and method for applying a soil conditioner for increasing water and nutrient retention in landscaping, turf management, forestry, horticulture and agriculture. Unique to this invention is the ability to premix a super absorbent polymer with water and apply the water and polymer solution to the soil through a conventional spray applicator. | 01-15-2009 |
| 20090056957 | Method and apparatus for improving fire prevention and extinguishment - The instant invention relates to an apparatus and method for fire extinguishment and retardation. The method comprises of a means for introducing polymeric material to a flow of water from an outside source before the flow of water enters a pumping unit within a mobile fire fighting apparatus, thereby forming a mixture of water and polymeric material. An eductor assemblage provides a means of introducing the polymeric material to the flow of water. The eductor assemblage comprises of a hopper and an eductor member. The hopper contains an amount of polymeric material, specifically super absorbent polymers. The eductor member comprises of an inlet connectable to the outside source of water, an outlet in fluid communication with the inlet and connected to the intake on a mobile fire fighting apparatus, and an additive inlet positioned between the inlet and outlet. The additive inlet is connected to the hopper and in fluid communication with the eductor member wherein a flow of the source of water from the inlet to outlet educts the super absorbent polymers through the additive inlet by venturi and flows into the eductor member forming a mixture for dispensing through the outlet onto combustible sources. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090095494 | Process and device for fire prevention and extinguishing - The instant invention relates to a process for preventing and extinguishing fires. Particularly to process capable of adding a dehydrated superabsorbent polymer to water in an amount sufficient to extinguish and prevent additional co. | 04-16-2009 |
| 20100059237 | Process and device for fire prevention and extinguishing - The instant invention relates to a fire extinguishing apparatus. Particularly to an apparatus that includes at least one container that includes a fire retardant gel. The gel is formed from dehydrated superabsorbent polymer and water. The pre filled containers include at least one control valve or frangible portion to release the fire retardant to extinguish the fire. | 03-11-2010 |
| 20100319938 | Water based fire extinguishers - The instant invention relates to a super absorbent polymeric material which when added to water enhances the fire extinguishing properties of the water. In particular, a pre-measured quantity of the polymeric material is added to a conventional water based canister capable of holding 2.5 gallons of pressurized water. The aqueous solution provides enhanced Class A & B fire extinguishing properties and is capable of long term storage. | 12-23-2010 |
| 20110095985 | Computer keyboard emergency function key - A computer keyboard function key conversion kit provides the necessary software connections to allow ease of calling an emergency responder through a keyboard, and a modified function key that both highlights the function key operation and makes the function key resistant to accidental depression. In one embodiment, a conventional computer that is connected to the internet is programmed with an emergency contact number that can be dialed upon the press of a function key. The function key is capped with a device that inhibits accidental operation of the function key. The function key may have a rigid body that requires a force to depressing, the force can be sufficient to cause destruction of the protector in a similar way the operation of a fire alarm causing destruction of the fire alarm. The device can be installed on a new computer or a currently installed computer. | 04-28-2011 |
