Filed:

Jun 17, 1996

Appl. No.:

8/664354

Inventors:

Nicholas F. DiDomenico - Mertztown PA

Assignee:

Bayer Corporation - Tarrytown NY

International Classification:

B01F 304

US Classification:

261104

Abstract:

The humidification device includes a tube formed of gas permeable material connected to a water source by a tube formed of material that is substantially impermeable to water. The gas permeable tube permits water to evaporate through the tube wall and is thus an evaporation tube. The evaporation tube is disposed in a chamber that is to be humidified. As water evaporates from the evaporation tube, the humidity in the chamber builds up to a maximum level. At the maximum humidity level evaporation of water from the evaporation tube ceases. When the humidity level in the chamber drops below the maximum level, evaporation of water from the evaporation tube resumes to restore the humidity in the chamber to its maximum level. Water flow from the water source replaces evaporated water from the evaporation tube. The humidification device is thus self-regulating and does not require any water flow regulating devices.

Abstract:

A system and method for retrieving data from a data generating device includes a communication intermediary and an external data storage system. The communication intermediary has a first network interface that is connected to the external data storage system and a second network interface that is connected to the data generating device. The communication intermediary isolates the network communication between the data generating device and second network interface from the network communication between the external storage system and the first network interface, and thereby isolates the data generating device from the external storage system. The communication intermediary monitors the data generating device for newly generated data files, copies the newly generated data files to an internal memory and sends the data files to the external storage system.
