Title: Technique for controlling pumps in a hydraulic system
Inventor: WEBER ROBERT
IPC: E02F9/22
Filed: 2010-09-09
Abstract: A hydraulic system includes a plurality of pumps that provide pressurized fluid to a plurality of hydraulic actuators some of which work more that others. That system is controlled by producing a usage value for each of the plurality of pumps which indicates an amount that the respective pump has worked. One of the pumps is assigned to each hydraulic actuator in response to the usage values. The pumps with lower usage values are assigned to hydraulic actuators which work more, so as to equalize the use of each pump. The assignment of pumps to hydraulic actuators changes with changes in the usage values for the plurality of pumps. When a given one of the plurality of hydraulic actuators is to operate, hydraulic fluid is routed from the assigned pump to that given one of the plurality of hydraulic actuators.

Title: Bridged artificial nucleoside and nucleotide
Inventor: OBIKA SATOSHI
IPC: C07H19/16

Abstract: Provided is a novel molecule for an antisense by which the expression of a specific gene can be efficiently regulated. As formulae (I) and (II) show, the novel artificial nucleoside has an amide bond introduced into a bridged structure of 2',4'-BNA/LNA. An oligonucleotide containing this 2',4'-bridged artificial nucleotide has a binding affinity for a single-stranded RNA comparable to that of publicly known 2',4'-BNA/LNA, and a resistance to nuclease stronger than that of LNA. Since the binding affinity of the aforesaid oligonucleotide to a single-stranded RNA is much stronger than that of S-oligo, in particular, it is expected that the oligonucleotide is applicable to nucleic acid drugs.
