Patent AU-2002226102-A1 (AU)
Title: External skeletal fixator
Inventor: MITKOVIC MILORAD
IPC: A61B17/70
Filed: 2001-11-30
Abstract: This invention is related to external skeletal fixator, which makes it possible for the conventional pins to be invested without any special guidance, with the possibility for the pins (4) to have three degreed movement, whereas the mere construction ensures the equalized three-dimensional stability, whereby the complex of the fixator is highly adjustable, suitable for the compression and distraction, as well as easy for the production and clinical application. According to this invention it is necessary to invest at least two pins (40) in each of the bone fragments. The essence of the invention lies in the construction of the carrier complex (2) of the clamp and the clamp (3). There are as many complexes as there are pins (40). The construction enables a sliding movement and rotational movement of the clamp (3) around the body (8) of the carrier (20), and the same possibility is granted to the carriers (2) that are pulled over the connective bar (1) by their circular holes on the cylindrical carrying head (9). Likewise, by the help of the gutters (44), the clamps are pulled overt the pins (40) invested in various different positions. What is achieved by the mutual adjustment of all elements and by the tightening of the screw (12) with the press-stud (13) is the fastening of the carrier (2) to the bar (1), and the clamp (3) for the carrier (2) and the pin (4) is fastened by the screw (47), which makes it possible for the fixation of both bone fragments to come into being.

Title: Product conveying and accumulation system and method
Inventor: GARVEY MARK C
IPC: B65G47/51
Filed: 2002-12-04
Abstract: A product conveying and accumulation system is provided for use with products of various sizes, shapes, and stability characteristics. The system comprises multiple moving conveyors, including a first conveyor which transports product from an upstream location to the inner path of an accumulator conveyor. The accumulator conveyor, traveling at a substantially similar speed or a designated variable speed as the first conveyor or conveyors, is aligned in the same plane as, is adjacent to, and may mate with the first conveyor at a predetermined location at the inner path of the accumulator conveyor for contiguous movement in the same direction as the first conveyor at this predetermined location. As product from upstream is delivered to the inner path of the accumulator conveyor, it eventually travels to the outer path and then accumulates inwardly, such that the earlier delivered product remains substantially at the outer path, where a product guide generally directs product on the outermost paths to the downstream destination. In this manner, the first products which are delivered to the accumulator conveyor are generally the first products transported downstream.

Title: Borehole conductivity profiler
Inventor: KELLER CARL E
IPC: E21B47/10
Filed: 2003-10-08
Abstract: A method of using an everting borehole liner to perform fluid conductivity measurements in materials surrounding a pipe, tube, or conduit, such as a borehole below the surface of the Earth. A flexible liner is everted (turned inside out) into the borehole with an internal pressurized fluid. As the liner displaces the ambient fluid in the borehole into the surrounding formation, the rate of descent of the liner is recorded. As the impermeable liner covers the flow paths in the wall of the hole, the descent rate slows. From the measured descent rate, the flow rates out discrete sections of the borehole are determined.

Title: Production of modified glycoproteins having multiple antennary structures
Inventor: HAMILTON STEPHEN R
IPC: C12N9/10
Filed: 2004-02-20
Abstract: The present invention relates to eukaryotic host cells, especially lower eukaryotic host cells, having modified oligosaccharides which may be modified further by heterologous expression of a set of glycosyltransferases, sugar and sugar nucleotide transporters to become host-strains for the production of mammalian, e.g., human therapeutic glycoproteins. The process provides an engineered host cell which can be used to express and target any desirable gene(s) involved in glycosylation. Host cells with modified lipid-linked oligosaccharides are created or selected. N-glycans made in the engineered host cells exhibit GnTIII, GnTIV, GnTV, GnT VI or GnTIX activity, which produce bisected and/or multiantennary N-glycan structures and may be modified further by heterologous expression of one or more enzymes, e.g., glycosyltransferases, sugar, sugar nucleotide transporters, to yield human-like glycoproteins. For the production of therapeutic proteins, this method may be adapted to engineer cell lines in which any desired glycosylation structure may be obtained.
