30results about How to "Easily deactivated" patented technology

The present invention relates to surveillance and / or identification devices having capacitors connected in parallel or in series, and methods of making and using such devices. Devices with capacitors connected in parallel, where one capacitor is fabricated with a relatively thick capacitor dielectric and another is fabricated with a relatively thin capacitor dielectric achieve both a high-precision capacitance and a low breakdown voltage for relatively easy surveillance tag deactivation. Devices with capacitors connected in series result in increased lateral dimensions of a small capacitor. This makes the capacitor easier to fabricate using techniques that may have relatively limited resolution capabilities.

A material used to form a biasing element for a magnetomechanical EAS marker has a coercivity that is lower than the coercivity of biasing elements used in conventional magnetomechanical markers. The marker formed with the low coercivity material can be deactivated by applying an AC magnetic field at a level that is lower than is required for deactivation of conventional markers. The marker with the low coercivity bias element can also be deactivated when at a greater distance from a deactivation device than was previously practical.

The invention relates to a method for monitoring a pipeline in order to detect the slow reduction of the free inner cross-section by means of the position of a control valve in the pipeline. When the flow rate is essentially constant, a first position is determined and stored at a first moment. According to at least one second position of the control valve, determined at a second, subsequent moment, the point at which the position of the valve exceeds a pre-deterrninable threshold value for a valve opening is determined, and optionally a signal is emitted to indicate that the threshold value has been exceeded and / or the time at which it was exceeded. As a result, suitable maintenance measures can be introduced, before faults occur in the process system.

The security seal for cargo containers and freight trailers which has a gas cartridge which supplies gas through a two position valve when it is opened and onto a two way valve which in the activated position supplies gas under pressure to a pressure hose looped around the locking bar or bars of a container or trailer. This gas pressure hose holds the two way valve in the activated position so that gas is supplied to the pressure hose. If the pressure hose is broken or disconnected, pressure means move the two way valve to the security breached position allowing gas to go into an ink reservoir which releases the ink onto the container leaving a permanent identified mark. The two position valve can be deactivated by means to move the valve. This valve can be moved into the deactivated position by a magnet. This security seal can also be deactivated by supplying gas under pressure from an external source to hold the two way valve in the activated position which will allow the pressure hose to be disconnected.
