The invention is directed at a method of sensing hydrogen gas in a liquid comprising: providing a measuring device comprising a hydrogen sensing chamber and a palladium hydrogen sensor mounted in contact with said chamber, positioning a hydrogen permeable membrane between the liquid and the hydrogen sensor and creating a headspace, selectively providing air to the sensor headspace, thereby bringing air into contact with said palladium sensor to refresh the palladium, after the palladium sensor is refreshed shutting off air flow to the sensor headspace, bringing liquid into said chamber, allowing hydrogen to pass through the membrane and reach equilibrium, and reading the hydrogen concentration.

A headset for operably disposing speakers and a visual display on the head of a wearer. The headset includes a beam extending over the vertex of the head for contacting the brow at one end and cooperating with a nape strap on the posterior end for adjusting the fit. Rigid arms extend from the posterior end adjacent the head to terminate in the vicinity of the ears. The arms include compressible compensators to substantially accommodate any size head therein. A visor is pivotally connected to the support beam adjacent the brow piece. The attachment of the visor to the support beam permits the visor to be disposed in a donning position away from the face or an operable position adjacent the face, without requiring a weight bearing surface on the face.

In an apparatus and process for extinguishing the fire of an escaping flow of fossil fuel, such as from an oil or gas well, the preferred apparatus comprises a boom-held, open-ended, split stack equipped with quench fluid outlets on its inside and structure for spreading the stack and closing it around the flame to confine and operate on the flame front. The process involves closing such stack around the flame, preferably with the quench fluid flowing from the opened-up stack as it approaches the fire, then continuing such flow until the fire goes out and the fuel vapors and equipment in the former flame zone are below autoignition temperature.

Split stack fire-fighting apparatus and process of use

An apparatus is disclosed for enhancing the performance of filters, particularly oil filters for internal combustion engines. The apparatus includes a frame having a top and bottom section connected together by a plurality of spaced longitudinal elements. The longitudinal elements are disposed radially apart from the filter housing so as to create a flow path for circulating air to cool the fluid within the filter. A magnet is mounted in the bottom section to help attract small magnetic particles which may not have been removed by the filtering medium within the filter. A wire coil is mounted in the top section to further assist in removal of suspended magnetic particles and to aid in precipitation of carbonaceous materials suspended in the circulating oil.

A clamping device including a pair of counter-opposing angularly shaped beams each having a forward jaw portion and a rearward portion interconnected by a pair of connecting straps and a force exerting element. Each connecting strap is pivotally attached at one end to a forward jaw portion of one beam and the rearward portion of the other beam. The point of intersection of the connecting straps moves progressively closer to the workpiece held between the jaws as the jaws are closed and exert simultaneously equal forces ont the workpiece. In one embodiment the clamping device is adapted for use as a portable tire bead breaker suitable for use on large truck or tractor tires.

A compact container system which utilizes minimal storage space is provided for packaging and shipment of an electric garage door opener. Among the many components of the container system is a corrugated cardboard shipping carton for snugly holding the motor unit or power opener head of the garage door opener. One of the sidewalls of the shipping carton includes an access flap for the optional insertion of an auxiliary transmitter.

A wheel jack apparatus having a vertical column which slidably receives a lifting head thereon so that the head can be forced to move respective to the column by means of a rack and pall located therebetween. A wheel adaptor is affixed to the lift apparatus and includes an upper sharp edge portion spaced from a lower fastener means. The sharp edge portion engages a concavity formed by the wheel rim while the fastener means is inserted through a slot formed between radially spaced lands on the wheel thereby enabling the wheel jack apparatus to positively engage the wheel of a vehicle and lift the wheel off the ground.

An automatic sprinkler having apparatus by which it can be programmed to uniformly distribute water over a number of different irregular patterns. A programmer has a sensor device connected thereto for manipulating both a speed control means and a nozzle in a manner whereby the speed of rotation of the nozzle means about a support base, as well as the angle of elevation of the water leaving the nozzle, is controlled in a manner to uniformly distribute water over an irregular pattern.
