Pbod System

Abstract

The present disclosure includes several pioneering discoveries. Including, a complete dose (10) of gas (60) formed essentially by motive gas (65). Dose (10) having the form of a plurality of bubbles (75). Also, a pbod ejected from any selected initial velocity. Also, a succession of identical bubbles formed essentially by a motive gas. Pbod systems transport a dose of liquid and a dose of gas to a target via pbod (70). Pbod systems may provide a solution to many various problems in many various technologies.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD OF THE INVENTION [0001] The present pioneering discovery resides in pbod systems. A pbod consists essentially of: a dose of liquid having the form of one ball; and a dose of gas having the form of a plurality of balls (bubbles); and the ball of liquid encloses the balls of gas; and the pbod is assembled on demand. [0002] Portions of the present description are previously disclosed in COFFELT, JR. U.S. patent application Ser. No. 10 / 827,901 filed 19 Apr. 2004 (19.04.04). [0003] Pbod systems are capable of providing a solution to numerous problems. Obviously, there are many pertinent problems in many various technologies, which are incorporated herein by reference. The pbod may be used in any of these pertinent arts. The following are examples of these pertinent arts and problems. [0004] The art of forming pendant drops is well known. And further, there are many arts, which utilize the pendant drop, or droplet. For example, fuel injection, surgery, chemical / biological ...

Problems solved by technology

Obviously, there are many pertinent problems in many various technologies, which are incorporated herein by reference.

The prior art clearly shows the art of forming one pendant drop on demand is not capable of reliably attaining these small microliter quantities.

It is also well known, an additional problem has existed for many years in the prior eye drop systems.

However, these jet systems are clearly subject to inaccuracies, recalibration, and failures due to the presence of complex moving parts and substantial frictional forces.

However, this method includes an abnormal displacement of the lower eye-lid.

Therefore, the systems of Basilice are clearly not optimal.

Therefore, the systems of Cohen are subject to failure, error, repair, or recalibration due to the inescapable inherent frictional forces present in the system.

Excessive fuel emissions is also a well known problem.

However the prior art motive gas does NOT form the complete dose of gas.

Problems in these prior art pbod systems include the requirement of complex metering apparatus.

Which inherently creates a relatively high probability for error and reduced reliability.

It is well known, systems with moving parts are subject to error and failure due to frictional forces.

And therefore, these complex pbod systems are subject to recalibration or repair.

Further, the cost of manufacturing these prior pbod systems is relatively excessive.

Additional problems in the prior pbod systems include the problems associated with dispensing small microliter bubbles into a liquid.

Therefore, this problem imposes quantitive limitations on the prior art pbod systems.

Additional problems in this prior art pbod system include, the system is not optimal to be used in a doctor-patient environment.

And further, this prior art pbod system is not optimal for a person to self-instill a pbod to the eye.

For example, it is well known, there are numerous attempts over a period of many years, which have failed to dispense small microliter doses in a unitary body.
