US Patent:

20080000911, Jan 3, 2008

Filed:

Jul 3, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/480802

Inventors:

Kenneth Oliver Bailey - Lewisville TX, US

International Classification:

B65D 25/14

US Classification:

22049507

Abstract:

A waste container having a rigid or semi-rigid side wall is fitted with means to retain a trash bag therein which prevents said trash bag from sliding down into the receptacle during use. Said receptacle also has perforations in said side walls to allow the escape of trapped air from between said side wall and said trash bag. Said receptacle is also equipped with means which forms a reservoir for unused bags at the bottom of said receptacle, said reservoir means having an opening therein which allows the withdrawal of an unused trash bag without the necessity of removing said reservoir from said receptacle.

International Classification:

G01N 2552

US Classification:

73 36

Abstract:

Apparatus is provided for continually monitoring the flash point temperature of a liquid pertoleum product flowing through a pipeline. The apparatus is located adjacent the pipeline for periodically drawing product samples therefrom and for testing the samples to determine the respective flash point temperatures. The apparatus includes a microprocessor, which is programmed to control the operation of the apparatus, a testing chamber and a Wheatstone bridge circuit for measuring the Lower Explosive Limit (LEL) of a combustible gas-air mixture which is drawn through the testing chamber. The gas-air mixture ignites on the surface of an active resistive filament, thereby increasing its temperature and resistance, which causes a current to flow within the magnitude bridge circuit. The magnitude of the current is directly proportional to the change of resistance of the active filament and the LEL of the vapor-air mixture. The microprocessor computes the flash point temperature of the sample based on the measured LEL and on the temperature and API gravity of the liquid sample.
