Title: Electrically-controlled tailgate operator
Inventor: SEIFERT LEE S
IPC: E05F15/12
Filed: 1995-01-27
Abstract: An electrically-controlled tailgate operator for moving a  vehicle  tailgate  between  a  generally  vertical  raised position and a generally horizontal lowered position.   The tailgate operator includes a ball nut linear actuator received in a housing mounted longitudinally along the side of a vehicle.  The actuator includes a rotatable, horizontally-extending  externally-threaded worm screw,  an  internally-threaded ball nut in threaded engagement with the worm screw for linear movement relative to the worm screw, and a sheave attached to the ball nut and around which a flexible cable is routed.  A motor is coupled to the worm screw.  The flexible cable is attached at one end to the vehicle tailgate, and at its other end to the housing.  When the motor is activated to rotate the worm screw in a first direction around its axis, the ball nut moves linearly toward the tailgate and the cable extends outwardly toward the tailgate, thereby moving the tailgate to a generally horizontal lowered position.  When the motor is reversibly operated to rotate the worm screw in a second direction around its axis opposite the first direction, the ball nut is pulled back toward the front of the vehicle, thereby pulling the cable back toward the vehicle and moving the tailgate to a generally vertical raised position.

IPC: A61N1/365
Filed: 1994-06-23
Abstract: A method and apparatus for optimizing the performance of a rate-responsive cardiac pacemaker. A pacemaker is provided which is capable of obtaining and storing information about a patient's cardiac function and about a pacemaker's operation during a brief exercise interval. The data collected includes information about the number of cardiac events during each two-second interval of the exercise, as well as the percentage of paced events during each two-second interval. Data reflecting the output of the pacemaker's activity sensor output is also collected for each two-second interval of the test. In addition, AV interval data for each cardiac cycle during the test is collected, this data being distinguished acceding to whether it reflects atrial-pace-to-ventricular-sense or atrial-sense-to-ventricular-sense AV intervals. The disclosed pacemaker is operable in conjunction with an external programming/processing unit, which receives the stored data after the exercise test is concluded. The data is processed and presented on the programmer screen in a manner which enables the clinician to readily assimilate it and observe the effects of hypothetical changes in rate-response programming in the pacemaker. Additionally, the clinician is able to observe the programmed AV rate adaption profiles in conjunction with the patient's actual AV performance, and compare this data with an AV profile from a typical healthy heart.

Title: Cell Culture Substrates and Methods of Use
Inventor: SWIDEREK MARK S
IPC: C12N5/00
Filed: 1995-04-12
Abstract: Cell culture substrates comprising dried films of native fibrillar collagen produced by a method in which collagen fibers are hydrolyzed in acid, solubilized, and reformed as gels on porous surfaces under non-physiologic salt conditions to produce large fibers with the striations characteristic of collagen fibers found in vivo. The gels are collapsed onto the porous surfaces by drawing the interfibril fluid out of the gel through the underside of the porous surface and then dried to form films. Dried collagen films made in this manner retain native fibrillar collagen structure and excellent diffusion characteristics. Native fibrillar collagen films produced according to the methods of the invention are useful as cell culture substrates. They have particularly advantageous properties for growth and differentiation of epithelial cells. This effect is synergistically enhanced by addition of butyric acid as a differentiation inducing agent.

Title: Method for producing poly(vinyl chloride)
Inventor: IIZAWA HIDETO
IPC: C08F2/16
Filed: 1995-09-11
Abstract: A method for producing a poly(vinyl chloride) comprises polymerizing vinyl chloride or a mixture of copolymerizable monomers containing vinyl chloride as the main component, in an aqueous medium, wherein the polymerization is carried out in a reaction vessel which is formed by arranging partition plates at certain intervals at right angles to the outer surface of an inner barrel and overlaying outer strips on and between the free ends of the partition plates to thereby form a flow passage unit having a flow passage for a heating medium defined by the partition plates, the inner barrel and the outer strips ("a temperature control element"); fixing the temperature control element in a vessel body so as to oppose the side of the outer strips with a gap to the inner surface of the vessel body, and sealing the upper and lower portions of the gap formed between the outer strip side of the temperature control element and the inner surface of the vessel body to form a gap chamber.   In this method, provision of a reflux condenser in a gaseous phase portion (particularly, at the upper end plate) of the vessel body improves a cooling capacity and increases productivity.  Further, by maintaining the pressure difference between a main body chamber surrounded by the inner surface of the vessel body and the inner surface of the temperature control element, and the gap chamber to be in a predetermined range by means of a communicating pipe or a pipe equipped with a pressure equalizer therein, safety in operations can be improved.   When liquid is fed into the main body chamber through a pressure equalizing pipe such as the communicating pipe, through a reflux condenser, during the polymerization reaction period, the deposition of scales in the pressure equalizing pipe is minimized to thereby prevent the plugging of the pipe.   The liquid is preferably fed through the gap chamber.          Water is preferably used as the liquid.   By using the method of the present invention, a poly(vinyl chloride) of high quality with little FE can be produced with good productivity.
