Latest Patents
One of Betts' latest inventions is a temperature indicating device. This device utilizes a housing that features both an exterior and an interior, which includes first and second chambers that communicate with one another. An opening through the housing allows for communication between the interior and exterior. A bimetallic element capable of assuming first and second configurations is positioned within the second chamber. A movable member in the first chamber contacts the bimetallic element when it assumes the first configuration. A spring biases the contact between the movable member and the bimetallic element, urging movement when the bimetallic element assumes the second configuration. A signal indicates such movement through the opening between the exterior and interior of the housing.
Another notable patent is the disengagement and retrieval mechanism for a record. This mechanism is designed to obtain a strip record of environmental measurements. It works in conjunction with a clock drive that advances a recording strip and a stylus that marks the environmental status on the strip. The mechanism includes a housing that encloses the marking stylus, while the recording strip is supported by a holder to allow for marking. An element connected to the recording strip is fixed relative to the housing, permitting the stylus to mark the strip. This element is removed from the housing by moving it away from the marking stylus.
