20110036929 | Funnel meter measuring device - A new measuring device can be used with compression sprayers. The sprayer has a tank that holds liquid, a pump that enables a user to compress air in the tank, a spray nozzle that is in fluid communication with the tank, an inlet opening to the tank, and a funnel surface that extends upwardly and outwardly from the inlet opening. A special gate fits onto a broken rim that extends upwardly from the inlet opening, and rotates between one position (in which liquid on the funnel surface flows into the tank through gaps in the broken rim) and another position (in which wall sections on the gate block the gaps). Markings on the funnel surface enable a user to measure a quantity of liquid that is retained on the funnel surface. Ribs and recesses on the broken rim and on the gate releasably, axially secure the gate to the broken rim. | 2011-02-17 |

20110036974 | GUIDING SPRAY DROPLETS INTO AN INLET CAPILLARY OF A MASS SPECTROMETER - Charged droplets are guided along a defined path from a droplet source to a droplet sink. A focusing pseudopotential distribution generated by audio frequencies on electrodes of a guiding device guide the charged droplets from the droplet source to the droplet sink with low loss. The droplets can be driven along the droplet guide by a gas flow, an axial electric field or a combination of both.

In the guiding device, the droplets can be manipulated in different ways, for example evaporated down to a desired size. The introduction of small droplets into gas-aspirating capillaries is of interest because it is possible to keep the droplets on axis by Bernoulli focusing and to guide them in large quantities and with low loss through the capillary. The ability to guide the droplets makes it also possible to install a segmented inlet capillary with intermediate pumping, which allows pumping capacity to be saved.

20110036976 | Atmospheric Pressure Ionization Mass Spectrometer - The present invention aims at suppressing noises when a mass analysis is performed by introducing a sample solution into an atmospheric pressure ion source by a pressurized liquid feeding method. As a dilution solvent of the sample solution contained in a sample container, a mixed liquid is used in which the mixture ratio of an organic solvent such as methanol is decreased to 20% and the ratio of water is 80%. Since nitrogen, which is a gas for the pressurization, is soluble in an organic solvent, decreasing the ratio of the organic solvent lowers the saturated dissolution amount and suppresses unstable emergence of the gas in the process of the mass analysis. Consequently, even after the elapse of a considerable length of time from the start of liquid feeding, spike-like noises do not appear in the ion intensity, which stabilizes the ion intensity. | 2011-02-17 |
