Title: Method for manufacturing bleached mechanical and chemithermomechanical pulp
Inventor: BENGTSSON SVERKER
IPC: D21C9/10
Filed: 2000-03-07
Abstract: There is a need to enhance the bleaching effect achieved when bleaching mechanical and chemithermomechanical pulp with a reductive bleaching agent. This can be achieved with the present invention, which relates to a method for manufacturing bleached mechanical and chemithermomechanical pulp including that lignocellulose material, preferably wood in chip form, is caused to pass through at least one preheater or through a chemical treatment system, a steam separator and a refiner where the lignocellulose material is converted into a pulp suspension which, after steam separation, is passed at least to a storage vessel (latency chest) and to a screening department, from which the major part of the pulp suspension is taken out as a substantially finished product or is taken out and passed to further treatment steps.  The reductive bleaching agent is added to the advancing pulp suspension without the use of a bleaching tower or the like. The method is characterized by adding the bleaching agent at a location downstream of the refiner and upstream of the screening department, and by bleaching the pulp under the given drastic condition from the aspect of temperature and the given minimized oxygen access at said location and immediately downstream of said location.

Title: Top mount faucet valve body
Inventor: MASCARI NICHOLAS A
IPC: E03C1/04
Filed: 2001-12-17
Abstract: A plumbing fixture adapted to be installed from the top side of a sink deck through a sink deck opening includes a valve body having an exterior threaded portion of a size to pass through the sink deck opening. There is a shoulder on the valve body which is adapted to seat upon the sink deck when the threaded portion extends through the sink deck opening. A threaded collar is mounted on the valve body threaded portion with the collar being of a size to pass through the sink deck opening. A collapsible sleeve is coaxial with the valve body and positioned thereon between the collar and the shoulder, the sleeve having an outer diameter, when collapsed, which will permit the sleeve to pass through the sink deck opening. Rotation of the valve body from above the sink deck, after the threaded portion, collar and collapsible sleeve have been passed through the sink deck opening, causes the collar to move on the valve body toward the underside of the sink deck to axially compress and radially expand the collapsible sleeve until the valve body is secured to the sink deck between the valve body shoulder and radially expanded collapsible sleeve.

Title: Only picked up phases recloser control
Inventor: MCCLURE GRAEME N
IPC: H02H3/06
Filed: 2002-03-15
Abstract: A recloser trips on one phase for single-phase only fault conditions, two phases for two-phase fault conditions, or all three phases for three-phase fault conditions. During power delivery, the recloser monitors the three phases of a power lin e (e.g., phases A, B, and C). If a fault is detected on one phase, then a timer is started and subsequently decremented. If the timer finishes counting down while the faul t is still present, then it is determined if any of the other two phases are timing a fault. If so, then those phases having a fault are tripped. Thus, only the faulted phase(s) is (are) tripped.

Abstract: A catheter assembly (10) is provided that has an adhesive (12) on an undersurface (14) of the hub (16) thereof, which is revealed following catheter insertion so that the catheter hub (16) can be secured to the skin (30) while maintaining universal precautions. A protective covering (20) is applied over the adhesive material (12) to preclude adhesion of the catheter  hub (16) to the medical practitioner's gloves or premature adhesion to the patient's skin (30). Once the catheter (18) has been properly positioned, th e protective covering (20) is removed by gripping a pull tab (22), which projects proximally, away form the inserted catheter tip and beyond the catheter hub (16). Pulling the tab (22) everts the protective cover (20) by folding the cover (20) back over itself to gradually reveal the adhesive surface (12) to the skin. The catheter hub (16) is pressed firmly to the ski n (30) in order to create an effective adherence.

Inventor: JUNE RAYMOND L
IPC: C07C51/47
Filed: 2000-08-08
Abstract: In a process for producing aromatic dicarboxylic acids which incorporates the disproportionation of a salt of an aromatic mono- or dicarboxylic acid to produce the unreacted salt of an aromatic mono- or dicarboxylic acid and the salt of the desired aromatic dicarboxylic acid, a method is disclosed for separating the salt of the desired product from the unreacted salt which comprises passing both said unreacted salt and said salt of the desired product in an aqueous solution over an adsorbent comprising an activated carbon. The process is particularly suitable for separating potassium naphthoate from 2,6-K2NDA after potassium naphthoate is disproportionated to produce 2,6-K2NDA and 1- or 2- potassium naphthoate.

Title: Electroluminescent lighting device
Inventor: DICKIE ROBERT G
IPC: H05B44/00
Filed: 2000-10-10
Abstract: A supplementary lighting device with a replaceable electroluminescent light element is disclosed. A control system is provided to boost the light intensity of the electroluminescent light element. A light sensor is provided which detects light emitted from the electroluminescent lighting element and inputs this information to the control system. The control system automatically adjusts the intensity of the electroluminescent lighting element according to a pre-set value and the information from the light sensor. This allows for the electroluminescent lighting element to maintain a constant output despite the ageing of the electroluminescent lighting element. The pre-set value for the intensity of the electroluminescent lighting element can be adjusted by a user controlled dimmer. The dimmer varies the amount of light detected by the light sensor in order to increase or decrease the power provided by the control system to the electroluminescent lighting element.

Patent CA-2400013-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CUBITT ANDREW B
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2001-02-02
Abstract: This invention is directed towards methods of destabilizing proteins in livi ng cells, and their use for the development of novel assays. In one embodiment,  the invention comprises the use of non-cleavable multimerized ubiquitin fusi on proteins to destabilize a target protein, such as a reporter moiety. In one aspect of this method the constructs also comprises a linker that operativel y couples the reporter moiety to the multimerized ubiquitin fusion protein. In  this embodiment, enzymatic modification of the linker results in a modulatio n of the coupling of the reporter protein to the multimerized ubiquitin domain s resulting in a change in the stability of the reporter moiety. The level of the reporter moiety in the cell can then be used as a measure of the enzymat ic activity in the cell. In another embodiment the invention provides for a generalized way of coordinately regulating the cellular concentration of a plurality of target proteins. In one aspect of this method, the target proteins are operatively coupled to a ubiquitin fusion protein via linker containing a protease cleavage site. Cleavage of the linker by a protease results in uncoupling of the target protein from the multimerized ubiquitin construct, and results in an increase in the stability and concentration of the target protein.

Title: Visual attention system
Inventor: STENTIFORD FREDERICK WARWICK M
IPC: G06T7/00
Filed: 2001-02-08
Abstract: This invention identifies the most significant features in visual scenes, without prior training, by measuring the difficulty in finding similarities between neighbourhoods in the scene. Pixels in an area that is similar to much of the rest of the scene score low measures of visual attention. On the other hand a region that possesses many dissimilarities with other parts of the image will attract a high measure of visual attention. The invention makes use of a trial and error process to find dissimilarities between parts of the image and does not require prior knowledge of the nature of the anomalies that may be present. The method avoids the use of processing dependencies between pixels and is capable of a straightforward parallel implementation for each pixel.  The invention is of wide application in searching for anomalous patterns in health screening, quality control processes and in analysis of visual ergonomics for assessing the visibility of signs and advertisements. The invention provides a measure of significant features to an image processor in order to provide variable rate image compression.
