    Abstract: Micro-machined capacitive sensors implemented in micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) processes that have higher sensitivity, while providing an increased linear capacitive sensing range. Capacitive sensing is achieved via variable-area sensing, which employs a transduction mechanism in which the relationship between changes in the capacitance of variable, parallel-plate capacitors and displacements of a proof mass is generally linear. Each respective variable, parallel-plate capacitor is formed by a finger/electrode pair, in which both the finger and the electrode have rectangular tooth profiles that include a plurality of rectangular teeth. Because changes in the overlapping area of the finger and the electrode are multiplied by the number of rectangular teeth, while the standing capacity of the micro-machined capacitive sensor remains relatively high, the sensitivity of the micro-machined capacitive sensor employing variable-area sensing is significantly increased per unit area of the finger and the electrode.

    Abstract: Filters and filter assemblies including one or more shield elements to protect the filter media of the filters during installation of the filters into a filter housing of the filter assembly are provided. A filter includes first and second media packs, a housing seal system, a handle and a shield element. Filter media packs extend from a first end to a second end in a diverging manner. The first end has a length dimension and a width dimension that extend transversely. A shield element projects over the first and second media packs at the first end a span in the width direction of at least 40% of the width dimension defined by the first and second media packs and projecting a span in the length direction of at least 5% of the length dimension defined by the first end.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an insect trap which has been designed to facilitate simple and efficient servicing, maintenance and cleaning. The trap includes a back housing; a frame swing mounted to said housing; and a cover comprising openings allowing insects to enter the trap and the frame supports at least one light such that said frame and lights can be moved from a first position where they overlie the back housing, to a second position where they lie clear of the back housing such that an insect catching means which may be fitted over the back housing is readily accessible for replacement during servicing. Additionally, the trap is adapted for ease of servicing and jet cleaning by the provision of shields each of which sealably protect, from water ingress, the plurality of lights at the positions where they connect to electrical fittings.

    Abstract: An insect trap with glue boards which are mounted inside a housing so as to be not readily visible when the trap is seen from various angles. The trap uses a lens with a roughened inside surface in combination with a reflector (preferably double parabolic) to enhance a UV light source mounted inside the trap. The housing of the trap has openings through which insects are able to enter an inside chamber. The walls of the chamber are lined with glue boards, which may be treated with chemical attractant so as to increase the tendency for insects to land on the adhesive area of the glue boards. The trap is designed to appear to be a simple wall sconce, and the angle at which the boards are mounted is such that the trap may be mounted at any orientation or any elevation without any significant likelihood that trapped insects will be seen by persons looking at the trap.

    Abstract: The invention relates to an insect trap and more particularly to an insect trap which has been designed to facilitate the destruction of micro-organisms thereby countering odours and mitigating against the spread of germs. The trap may comprise a. a housing; b. a cover; c. one or a plurality of insect attracting lights; and d. an insect catching device and further includes a radiation emitting device such as a UVC lamp which emits radiation and is capable of destroying air-borne pathogens. The insect attractant lights heat the air which is convected and an air flow may be facilitated by louvered openings in the cover and an opening in the top of the trap so that the air flow circulates across the UVC lamp where the micro-organisms are killed.
