Alignment of lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals at surfaces as monolayers and multilayered stacks

A broad class of lyotropic liquid crystals of a non-surfactant nature, the so-called lyotropic chromonic liquid crystals (LCLCs), are alignable with the techniques, in particular, LCLCs can be aligned at a surface as one monomolecular layer as a stack of monomolecular layers. The method for monolayer alignment is based on alternate layer-by-layer adsorption of polyions and dyes from aqueous solutions that have liquid crystalline structure. Using this method, one is able to stack alternate monolayers of dye and polyion while controlling the long-range in-plane orientation of the dye molecules within the plane of each layer. The feature of controlling the alignment of LCLCs enables one to create practical devices from them. For example, alignment of multilayered stacks allows one to use the resulting dried LCLC films in optical devices, for example, as internal polarizers, color filters, optical compensators, band-gap filters, and the like.

Safety Tile for Pedestrian Tactile Detection

A safety tile for embedding into a pedestrian-accessible surface, and a method of its use, are disclosed. The safety tile comprises a substantially planar tile member that includes an upper surface, a lower surface, and at least one side surface. The upper surface includes a plurality of projections extending upwardly therefrom, and the lower surface may include a plurality of downwardly projecting ribs. A plurality of anchor bolts are included that traverse the tile member from the upper surface to the lower surface through an aperture therein. Preferably the projections are shaped and pattered so as to be compliant with the Americans with Disabilities Act Accessibility Guidelines. The rounded head of each anchor bolt is preferably shaped and patterned similarly to each of the plurality of projections and positioned on the upper surface so that the rounded head of each anchor bolt takes the place of one projection in the pattern. In use, after the tile is set into an uncured surface material, each anchor bolt is tapped down into the uncured material to be captured thereby. The rounded head of each anchor bolt may be unscrewed from its anchor nut, in one embodiment, to facilitate removal of the tile from the surface.

Exhalation and inhalation valves that have a multi-layered flexible flap

Exhalation and inhalation valves that are sized and adapted to fit on a mask body of a personal respiratory protection device. The exhalation and inhalation valves comprise a valve seat that has a seal surface and an orifice through which an exhale flow stream may pass to leave the interior gas space. A flexible flap is mounted to the valve seat such that the flap makes contact with the seal surface when the valve is in its closed position and such that the flap can flex away from the seal surface during an exhalation to allow exhaled air to pass through the orifice to ultimately enter an exterior gas space. The flexible flap has at least first and second juxtaposed layers where at least one of the layers is stiffer or has a different elastic modulus than the other layer. These valves provide extraordinarily lower pressure drop in use, and they operate more efficiently and require less actuation power to operate. The end user therefore derives greater comfort when wearing a respiratory mask that uses the inventive valve.
