Granted: 2008-11-18
Abstract: A method of controlling a system for processing stored information on a storage medium includes the following steps. Stored information is played back during a play mode of operation. A user is provided an opportunity to select a bookmark, representing a corresponding location within the stored information, from among a plurality of bookmarks, responsive to user input. Playback is changed to from the location corresponding to the selected bookmark during the play mode of operation. Apparatus for processing information stored on a storage medium includes playback circuitry for retrieving information from the storage medium during a play mode of operation. A user control device receives user input. Control circuitry selects a bookmark, corresponding to a location in the retrieved information from the storage medium, in response to the user input, and conditions the playback circuitry to retrieve information from the storage medium starting at the location corresponding to the selected one of a plurality of bookmarks during the play mode of operation.

Title: Process for the treatment of waste water containing heavy metals
Inventor: BUISMAN CEES JAN NICO
IPC: C02F3/28
Filed: 1999-12-29
Granted: 2011-11-22
Abstract: A process for the treatment of waste water containing heavy metals is disclosed in which sulphur components and/or metals are biologically reduced to precipitate the metals as water-insoluble metal species, which are separated from the waste water. The biological reduction and the precipitation of the metal species are carried out in a moving sand bed, in which sand particles partly immobilise the bacteria and retain the precipitated metal species, treated waste water is separated from the precipitated metal species, and the precipitated metal species are subsequently separated from the sand particles. Metals like selenium and uranium can be precipitated without sulphur components, whereas metals like antimony, cadmium, copper, zinc and the like are precipitated as sulphides.

Title: Stent for holding passageways open
Inventor: JORDAN ANDREAS
IPC: A61F2/82
Filed: 2000-04-28

Abstract: A stent made of metallic and/or non-metallic material that can be implanted into tubular structures or other body cavities is coated with nanoscale particles that consist of a paramagnetic core and at least one shell adsorbed to it which is durably bonded to the stent surface. This coating makes it possible to selectively and homogeneously heat up the implant by applying an alternating magnetic field with a clinically tolerable combination of field strength and frequency, thereby achieving high power absorption and, on the one hand, a temperature level that enhances the growing-in of the implant by enhancing cell proliferation, on the other hand, a temperature range in which a restenosed implant can be regenerated. Also, it facilitates position detection.

Title: Auxiliary system for vehicle air conditioning, battery charging, and accessory operation
Inventor: PETRUNIA-BLACQUIERE JANET
IPC: B60H1/32
Filed: 2003-01-14
Granted: 2005-11-22
Abstract: An auxiliary engine generates electricity through an alternator, to charge the vehicle battery and selectively run an electric motor for air conditioning when the vehicle's primary engine is not operating. Operation of the electric motor produces rotation of the drive shaft of the vehicle's air conditioning compressor, the output shaft of the electric motor being connected via a centrifugal clutch, and a drive belt on a pulley integral to the clutch, to a pulley bolted directly to the drive shaft of the compressor. There is no use made of the vehicle's existing electromagnetic clutch at the compressor location, i.e. it remains disengaged when the auxiliary system is operating, and is engaged only when air conditioning is called for in normal vehicle operation, i.e. when the primary engine is running. The electricity generated by the auxiliary engine can also be used to operate other accessories, if desired, such as lighting, televisions, VCRs, refrigerators and other like accessories.

Abstract: Dans les machines de moulage par injection de matière métallique, la connexion entre la buse d'injection et la buse de carotte tend à entraîner des fuites de matière métallique. Afin de pallier ce problème, la buse a été modifiée de manière à avoir une partie saillante ou un ergot s'étendant dans une partie de contact de la buse de carotte, afin de former un joint d'étanchéité entre les parties de parois respectives. La buse et la buse de carotte peuvent se déplacer mutuellement dans le sens axial sans déperdition d'étanchéité, alors que dans les conceptions antérieures, toute séparation entre les surfaces annulaires en présence sur la buse de carotte et la buse entraîne des déperditions d'étanchéité et des fuites.
