Title: Device and method for automatically analysing the constituents of an analyte
Inventor: SCHLICHTING HARTMUT
IPC: G01N27/447
Filed: 2002-02-01
Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for automatically analysing the constituents of at least one analyte, especially by means of gel electrophoresis and/or isoelectric focussing, comprising at least one separating matrix, especially a gel. Each separating matrix is applied on at least one side in a supporting direction S of a supporting element, can be loaded with an analyte, and can be electrically contacted on opposite ends in a separating direction T in order to split the analyte into its constituents. The invention is characterised in that the supporting element is embodied in such a way that it enables a material-transferring process to take place from one side - in an access direction Z which is different from the support direction S and the separating direction T - essentially over the entire area of the separating matrix in which the constituents of the analyte are located after being separated, and in that the supporting element comprises a continuous sealing surface which essentially prevents said material-transferring process from taking place outside said area.

Title: Method for the injection moulding of an optical element made from synthetic thermoplastic material
Inventor: CHUI HAO-WEN
IPC: B29C45/56
Filed: 2002-12-17
Abstract: For each lens molding cycle, the method comprises the following steps:raising the wall of the mold cavity to a heating temperature higher than or equal to the molding temperature of said material;filling the molding cavity with said material;at the end of filling, increasing the pressure of said material introduced in this way into the molding cavity up to a compacting pressure; andbringing the wall of the molding cavity to a cooling temperature to cool said molded material down to an unmolding temperature below its molding temperature, said cooling temperature being lower than said unmolding temperature.The molding cavity begins to be filled with said material before the heating temperature has been reached. Once both the compacting pressure of said material and the heating temperature of the molding cavity wall have been reached, they are both maintained for a given length of time.

Title: Prosthetic tibial component with modular sleeve
IPC: A61F2/30
Filed: 2003-09-08
Abstract: A prosthetic knee system has a tibial component and a modular sleeve. The tibial component has a tibial tray, a stem and keels extending between the distal surface of the tray and the stem. The modular sleeve has an oval proximal surface with spaced reliefs. The reliefs and keels are sized, shaped and positioned to allow the modular sleeve to be mounted on the tibial component with the stem of the tibial component received in the interior channel of the sleeve and the keels of the tibial component received in the spaced reliefs of the modular sleeve, and to allow for some relative rotation between the tibial component and the sleeve. The system gives the surgeon the freedom to implant the tibial component alone, with the keels providing stability, or, in the case of bone deficiency, to implant the tibial component and sleeve as an assembly. <IMAGE>

Title: Catalytic reactor and process
Inventor: BOWE MICHAEL JOSEPH
IPC: B01J19/24
Filed: 2003-11-27
Abstract: Fischer-Tropsch synthesis is performed using a compact catalytic reactor unit (10) defining channels in which is a gas-permeable catalyst structure (16), the channels extending between headers (18). The synthesis occurs in at least two stages, as the reactor unit provides at least two successive channels (14, 14a) for the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis connected by a header, the gas flow velocity through the first channel being sufficiently high that no more than 65% of the carbon monoxide undergoes conversion. The gases are cooled (25) in the header between the two stages, so as to condense water vapour, and then pass through the second channel at a sufficiently high gas flow velocity that no more than 65% of the remaining carbon monoxide undergoes conversion. This lowers the partial pressure of water vapour and so suppresses oxidation of the catalyst.
