Ultrasound catheter devices and methods provide enhanced disruption of blood vessel obstructions. Generally, an ultrasound catheter includes an elongate flexible catheter body with one or more lumens. An ultrasound transmission member or wire extends longitudinally through the catheter body lumen and, in many embodiments, a guide wire tube also extends through the same lumen. A distal head is fixed to or otherwise mechanically coupled with the distal end of the ultrasound transmission member or wire and is positioned adjacent the distal end of the catheter body. Although the distal end of the catheter body overlaps the distal head, the distal head is not directly affixed to the distal end of the catheter body. Thus, the distal tip may move freely, relative to the distal end of the catheter body when ultrasonic energy is applied through the ultrasound transmission member. Such a freely floating distal head enhances the efficiency of an ultrasound catheter, enabling the catheter to ablate calcific occlusions and increasing the useful life of the ultrasound transmission member and catheter.

Provided herein are systems and methods for separation of particulate from water using ultrasonically generated acoustic standing waves.

A disruptive camouflage pattern system to be used for both military and civilian applications. The system includes specialized techniques for printing the camouflage pattern system unto fabric. The system provides camouflage in both the human visible light and the near infrared range. The system depends on macro pattern resulting from a repeat of a micro pattern. The coloring used includes at least four colorings from dyes that in combination produce a percent reflectance value comparable to that of the negative space of the camouflaged subject's surroundings. The system functions by a macro pattern being disruptive of the subject's shape and a micro pattern having sharp edge units of a size capable of blending the subject into its background. The relative lightness values and percentages of total pattern, wet or dry, are sufficient to produce a percent reflectance of acceptable colors, in terms of lightness values unlike current four-color camouflage.

This invention relates to a method, process and apparatus for disinfecting and sterilizing all types of surfaces contaminated with microorganisms and toxic substances to render both inactive. Furthermore, this invention relates to both a method and apparatus for disinfecting and/or sterilizing breathable air and then using this air to protect a confined space from external contamination. The apparatus consists of a new ultra-violet (NUV) source that is more effective than mercury based 254 nm light for destroying DNA of virus, bacteria, spores and cists. It is most effective in breaking chemical bonds in toxic gases and Biotoxins that are useful to terrorists. It is combined with other apparatus that remove particulates and byproducts sometimes produced by the NUV source and maintains positive pressure of the confined space so as to prevent the influx of air from outside the protected zone.

An indoor air quality module includes an ultraviolet light source located between two titanium dioxide coated honeycombs. When photons of ultraviolet light are absorbed by the titanium dioxide coating, reactive hydroxyl radicals are formed that attack and oxidize contaminants in the air to water, carbon dioxide, and other substances. A shield is positioned outside each of the honeycombs to minimize the direct leakage of ultraviolet light from the module. The height of each shield depends on the distance between each shield and the ultraviolet light source and the maximum angle that ultraviolet light can pass through the honeycomb without any reflection on the surface of the honeycomb. Any ultraviolet light that directly leaks from the honeycomb contacts the shield and reflects towards honeycomb, minimizing the direct leakage of ultraviolet light from the module and increasing the photocatalytic rate of the contaminants.

This invention provides a kind of main-frequency induction heating method using in the frequency treatment system of steel pipe and the tube and drill pipe of oil well. This method include put the work piece to the storage platform, the work piece automatic alignment and localization, the work piece enter the heating roller, quenching inducing heated, closed loop temperature control system, continuum spray ensure the work piece being uniformly quenched entire and quickly, the water stay in the work piece being ejected on the detearing platform, the work piece is heated by the temper inducing heater which controlled by the infrared thermometer controller, descaling device, and then enter the descaling device , the final is the cooling platform. The intermediate-frequency induction heater is using as the heating system, which is safe, no pollution and with little oxide scale. The heater roller ensure the work piece is heated uniformly and entirely, and after this process the work piece no need to be straightened which decrease the cost. The spray quenching equipment ensure the work piece could be uniformly quenched entire and quickly. The descaling device makes the surface of the work piece brightly. The detearing platform makes the work piece move automatically, which won' t influence the heating effect. And the water and steam could not enter the heating inducing loop either, which can increase the life of the loop..
