EXTERNAL CONDENSER AND LIGHT ASSEMBLY
An external automotive condenser and light assembly for mounting on a body of a vehicle, the condenser and light assembly includes a condenser housing having a top portion defining at least one top opening and a bottom portion defining at least one bottom opening. The condenser housing includes a front face so as to permit at least one warning light to be affixed thereto. The condenser housing includes a right face extending rearward from the front face. The condenser housing includes a left face extending rearward from the front face. At least one warning light is affixed to an exterior of the front face.
External condenser and light assembly
The present invention relates generally to an external condenser and light assembly and, more particularly, to an improved external air conditioning condenser and housing that is designed to additionally serve as a light assembly for an emergency vehicle. The condenser housing is mounted to the exterior of the emergency vehicle, which improves the performance of the emergency vehicle's air-conditioning system. The design of the condenser housing also allows it to serve as a light assembly on which emergency vehicle lights are mounted. The condenser housing and light assembly structure thereby provides for proper air conditioning functionality without occupying space on the exterior of the vehicle that would more preferably be occupied by emergency lighting.
Method and apparatus for treating an inside volume of a mobile vehicle
A treatment apparatus and method of treating an inside volume of a mobile vehicle using the apparatus. The method includes the steps of: a) placing a treatment unit in an operative position with respect to the mobile vehicle, the treatment unit having: i) a frame; ii) a source of UV light; and iii) an air mover for controllably directing air within the inside volume to be exposed to UV rays generated by the UV light source; and b) operating the treatment unit and thereby causing air within the inside volume to be disinfected by UV light rays from the UV light source and circulated within the inside volume.
Biosafety enclosure for occupants of vehicles
Disclosed herein is a biosafety enclosure for protecting occupants of a vehicle from pathogens. In one example, the biosafety enclosure comprises a protective cover member made of a durable material shaped to form a three-dimensional structure that is installed inside of the vehicle and isolates the one or more occupants of the biosafety enclosure from other occupants of the vehicle. The biosafety enclosure comprises a plurality of connectors attached to the protective cover member in order to secure the protective cover member inside the vehicle. In addition, the biosafety enclosure comprises one or more air circulation vents disposed within the protective cover member, wherein an air circulation vent is connectable to an external air filtration device or an air filtration system of the vehicle. The biosafety enclosure also comprises an ingress/egress member comprised in the protective cover member to allow entry/exit of occupants to/from the enclosure.
MEDICAL ISOLATION TRANSPORT SYSTEM - MITS
A flexible rapid deployable system that may be used create an isolated space within a medical transport vehicle for use when transporting infected or contaminated patients, including a flexible tent-like liner creates a room inside the vehicle where both the patient and medical personnel can be isolated and contain contaminants within and a filtration system capable of producing the required air flow to maintain a negative pressurized isolated environment, sized to effectively accomplish this for the isolated cubic space.
MARINE RESCUE PATIENT ISOLATION APPARATUS
A patient isolation unit (PIU) for use in marine rescues. The PIU of this invention is useful to safely transport personnel exposed to, or potentially exposed to, an identified and/or known infectious agent or chemical warfare agent (CWA) on marine vessels and/or aircraft such as Coast Guard boasts, cutters and aircraft. The PIU has a generally tapered tubular shape compatible with wire rescue baskets conforming in shape to the human body and into which an injured, sick, or disabled person can be safely strapped, such as the Stokes litter rescue basket for hoisting and fit in rotary wing aircraft.

INACTIVATION METHOD
There is provided an inactivation method that inactivates harmful microorganisms and/or viruses existing in an enclosed space where a patient is transported and/or treated, and comprises: a first step of performing a wiping operation that wipes down a surface in the enclosed space with a sterilizing solution after transporting and/or treating the patient; a second step of irradiating, simultaneously with the first step, droplets that scatter from a wiping area of the surface during the wiping operation in the first step with ultraviolet light in a wavelength range between 190 nm and 235 nm as ultraviolet light having a wavelength that inactivates harmful microorganisms and/or viruses.
Recursive multi-tiered health isolation facility
A recursive multi-tiered health isolation facility having multiple tiers of facility types. Each facility type has a probability of containing an airborne infectious contagion and a means for provide pressure differentials between the facilities types. Increasingly higher negative pressurization within facility types with a higher probability of airborne infection provides for nesting facility types and abatement of airborne contagions transmitted between facility types. Further, the air exchange rates for each facility type are increased as the probability that a facility type has an airborne infectious agent increases. The use of HEPA filters with the increased air exchange rates increases the contagion abatement in environments having a higher probability of airborne contagions. Further, exchanged air is treated with ultraviolet light to kill contagions making it through the air filter. Additionally, bathroom facilities provided as part of the patient facilities can be coupled to an autoclave incineration facility to prevent contagion contamination by bodily fluids.
