Patent AU-726841-B2 (AU)
Title: The dyeing machine for applying treatment agent to fabric
Inventor: JIANG ZHAOCHENG
IPC: D06B3/28
Filed: 1997-04-29
Granted: 2000-11-23
Abstract: A spray dyeing apparatus includes a fabric storage tank and a fabric guide tube disposed above and connected to the fabric storage tank to define a continuous loop for fabric. A pump and a blower are provided to pressurize and convey dye and air into the fabric guide tube via spray nozzles disposed on upper side of the fabric guide tube and directing nozzles arranged on a bottom support plate of the fabric guide tube. The bottom support plate has a support surface having a sufficient width to allow the breadth of the fabric to be substantially fully expanded in moving through the fabric guide tube. The directing nozzles are provided on the support plate in a spaced manner to generate high speed air streams in the downstream direction which are confined above the support plate to have the fabric floating above the support plate and moving in the downstream direction. The high speed air streams also create a low pressure zone under the fabric so as to induce a violent vibration on the fabric by means of the air streams and the pressure difference between the upper and lower sides of the fabric. The spray nozzles are provided on the upper side of the fabric guide tube to spray atomized dye onto the expanded fabric. <IMAGE>

Title: Live vaccine for the treatment of tumour diseases
Inventor: BLANKENSTEIN THOMAS
IPC: G07C9/00
Filed: 1995-08-18
Granted: 1998-03-05
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE95/01164 Sec. 371 Date May 20, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date May 20, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 18, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/05866 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 29, 1996The invention concerns the preparation and use of a live tumour-cell vaccine which contains three additional genes prepared by genetic-engineering techniques: a) a gene coding for a cell-surface protein with immunostimulatory activity, b) a cytokin gene and c) the thymidine kinase gene. The fields of application of the invention are medicine and genetic engineering. The live vaccine proposed owes its effect to the fact that a synergistic anti-tumour response is induced by the multiple transfer of genes which code for immunostimulatory activity. This leads to reliable repulsion of the vaccine cells and enables cells capable of multiplying to be injected as a vaccine. As an additional safety marker, the vaccine cells are given the thymidine kinase gene which enables the vaccine cells to be selectively killed in vivo. The combinatory expression of genes with immunostimulatory activity improves the vaccine effect in comparison with prior art tumour-cell vaccines, and a live tumour-cell vaccine is more effective than a vaccine consisting of cells which are incapable of multiplying. The vaccine is intended for use in the genetic therapy of cancer patients.
Patent AU-625991-B2 (AU)
Title: Method for processing transmitted and reflected signals for removing unwanted signals and noise from wanted signals
Inventor: KIRKNES STEFFEN
IPC: G01S13/79
Filed: 1989-04-24
Granted: 1992-07-23
Abstract: In an identification system based on reflection of radar signals from a bit-coded transponder, the received signals are processed to remove unwanted signals and noise from the required, reflected and received signals that have a recurrent cycle. The reflected signals are extremely weak in relation to the unwanted signals and noise. A random bit sequencer and a time slot generator are used to generate a single phase modulated pulse train which is transmitted by an RF transmitter. The pulse train signal is received and reflected from a coded passive transponder back to a comparable receiver. The receiver demodulates the incoming reflected signal and directs the demodulated signal to an integrator array. An inverted signal from the receiver is also utilized. Synchronization of the transmitted and received signals is performed through a shift register while the bit sequencer controls a second integrator array. In this way, the unwanted signals and noise associated with the low power reflected signal is substantially eliminated.

Title: Jam reducing apparatus for use in a coin operated machine
Inventor: DOBBINS BOB M
IPC: G07F5/00
Filed: 1989-04-27
Granted: 1991-05-23
Abstract: Jam reducing apparatus for use in coin operated machines, such as telephones, acts to prevent the insertion of coins when the entryway is obstructed by foreign matter, assists in dislodging jammed coins and discourages vandals. The apparatus comprises a coin entryway which includes an inclined surface as part of a flared end of a lid. An entry slot in an entrance blocker, which is an integral part of the lid, is in substantial alignment with the coin insert slot of the front panel of the machine in normal operation. The lid is connected to a torsion spring and is associated with a coin reject lever. The inclined surface of the entryway lies opposite the blocker slot and is angled toward an exit of the coin entryway, which directs a coin into the machine. In normal use, inserted coins pass through the entryway and are directed into a coin mechanism for coin testing. Foreign matter inserted into the machine hits the inclined surface and exerts a camming force on the lid, rotating the lid about a torsion spring. This moves the coin entry slot and the blocker slot out of substantial alignment, preventing the insertion of additional foreign matter or another coin. Removal of the foreign matter allows the lid to return to its normal operating position under the force of the spring.

Title: Digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and method that produce anapproximately piecewise linear analog waveform
Inventor: ESSENWANGER KENNETH A
IPC: H03M1/78
Filed: 1996-05-14
Granted: 1998-01-08
Abstract: A DAC (84) converts a sequence of digital codewords (12) into an approximately piecewise linear analog waveform (50, 106) that follows rising and falling edges (76, 78; 94, 96) between plateau levels (82; 98). The DAC (84) processes, in parallel, each bit of the codewords (12) to produce component waveforms (88) that are weighted according to their bits significance and summed together to produce the piecewise linear analog waveform (50, 106). Waveform shaping circuits (100) control the rise and fall times of each component waveform (88) so that the analog waveform's rising and falling edges settle to within a desired error bound (80) of a linear output ramp (56, 58) whose slope is a function of the difference between successive codewords (12) and the rise or fall times. The rise and fall times are preferably approximately the same. Limiting switches (102) control the plateau levels of the component waveforms (88) so that the analog waveform's plateaus settle to within the desired error bound (80) of the ideal values represented by the codewords (12). The linear region of the limiting switches (102) are expanded to maintain the linearity of the rising and falling edges established by the waveform shaping circuits (100). <IMAGE>
