Patent AU-6220899-A (AU)
Title: Valve control mechanism
Inventor: WALTERS CHRISTOPHER PAULET MEL
IPC: F01L13/00
Filed: 1999-10-15
Abstract: A valve control mechanism is disclosed which permits either or both of (a) axial displacement of the camshaft of an internal combustion engine, and (b) phasing of the camshaft (and hence of the valve operation)-i.e. an advance/retard function. The mechanism preferably includes a piston housed within a cylinder, this arrangement itself being mounted within a front end camshaft pulley. The piston is under hydraulic control, preferably governed by a microprocessor. A mechanical coupling between the piston and the camshaft translates the axial movement of the piston into one or both of axial displacement of the camshaft and relative advancement/retardation of its rotation.

Title: Process for improving the quality of pulp obtained from wastepaper
Inventor: MOLLET CHRISTOPHER CHARLES
IPC: D21C5/02
Filed: 1980-09-30
Abstract: The method removes a contaminant, such as adhesive or ink particles, from wastepaper pulp. The method includes the steps of dispersing a monomer in the pulp so as to form droplets or beads which take up the particles e.g. by a process in which the particles are coated, absorbed or dissolved by, or adhere to the droplets or beads of monomer. The monomer is then polymerized to increase the rigidity of the droplets or beads, and the droplets or beads are separated from the pulp, e.g. by screening. The monomer or a mixtures of monomers are dispersed in the pulp by strong mechanical agitation and the agitation can be controlled to provide droplets or beads of monomer within a certain size range. Suitable monomers includes styrene, vinyl acetate, methyl methacrylate or mixtures of the same. The viscosity of the monomer phase may be increased by dissolving a homopolymer in the monomer to reduce the effect of shear forces caused by agitation. Benzoyl peroxide may be added to initiate polymerization.

Title: Device for receiving and furthur conveying of folded products
Inventor: KOBLER INGO
IPC: B65H39/075
Filed: 1987-06-24
Abstract: To provide for a space-saving, yet high-capacity storage system for sheet elements, for example folded printed paper sheets or the like, a plurality of segments (6) are slidable along a guide track. The segments are interconnected, for example by welding, hinges or the like, in zig-zag or accordeon pleat form. When compressed, the structure can be empty and any number of segments can be taken from an empty storage region, transported to a loading/unloading/mixing region for insertion, removal, or interleaving of sheet elements, while the segments are in expanded position; and then, again, compressed so that sheet elements or folded sheets will continue to be carried in the structure formed by the segments, with little space required. For interleaving or intermixing of sheets, folded or single sheet elements, two such zig-zag carrier structures can be located adjacent each other or above each other, and by spreading apart the segments which may be in U-shape, two paired lateral elements supported on divergent rails or the rail, permit dropping of sheets or sheet elements from an upper segmental array into a lower one or, if located adjacent each other, permit gripping of sheet elements in one array and lateral transport by grippers to an adjacent one.

Title: Apparatus and methods for independently conditioning and pre-tensioning a plurality of ligament grafts during joint repair surgery
Inventor: WEST HUGH S JR
IPC: A61F2/08
Filed: 2001-09-14
Abstract: Apparatus and methods for conditioning and pre-tensioning soft tissue grafts during joint repair surgery, such as during repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The inventive apparatus is advantageously adapted and configured so as to enable a surgeon to independently apply a desired tensile load to individual graft strands or graft bundles of a multi-strand tissue graft. The inventive methods enable each graft strand or bundle to be properly tensioned so as to both "condition" the graft to prevent subsequent stretching, relaxation or elongation following surgery, which can destabilize the joint, and to pre-tension each graft strand or bundle to a predetermined amount so that each contributes to the strength and stability of the joint, thus resulting in a stronger and more durable joint. The tensioning device is advantageously equipped with structure for attachment to a patient's limb during the conditioning and pre-tensioning procedure. It has multiple adjustable tension applicators that can be independently manipulated so as to apply a separate tensile load to one or more ends of a tissue graft strand attached to each adjustable tension applicator.

Title: Ink-jet printing apparatus
Inventor: KOITABASHI NORIBUMI
IPC: B41J2/01
Filed: 1998-12-24
Abstract: Upon performing printing using a dye ink and a pigment ink and in addition a treatment liquid making those inks insoluble, two kinds of inks consisted of the pigment ink (Ip) and the dye ink (Id) are used. After applying the pigment ink (Ip) on a printing medium (P), the dye ink (Id) is applied overlaying with the pigment ink. After mixing these inks on the printing medium (P), the treatment liquid (S) which makes the inks insoluble, is applied. In the alternative, a mixed ink (Im) in which a pigment ink not requiring a dispersant and the dye, is used. After application of this mixed ink (Im) on the printing medium (P), the treatment liquid (S) which makes the ink (Im) insoluble, is applied. Therefore, problem of "crack", "soaking out", "overflow" or lowering of OD value which can be caused upon reaction of the pigment ink (Ip) and the dye ink (Id) or the mixed ink (Im) with the treatment liquid (S), can be solved to achieve high quality printing. <IMAGE>
