Title: Pharmaceutical compositions containing an anti-infective agent and a micro-organsim as active ingredients
Inventor: KHAMAR BAKULESH MAFATLAL
IPC: A61K35/747
Filed: 1998-03-24
Abstract: The present invention relates to the process of preparing a stable fixed dose composition of anti-infective agent with micro organism as active ingredients. The process includes preparation of various dosage forms for oral route like capsule, tablet and liquid formulation. The process comprises providing an appropriate barrier by way of selected coating procedure to one of the active ingredients in such a way that micro organisms are not affected by anti-infective agetns. This results in a stable composition. The ratio of micro organism to anti-infective agents in a composition can be 1:2 to 1:25 by weight. The amount of coating is dependent on the type of coating technique, dosage form i.e. capsule, tablet or liquid and desired self life. The compositions eliminate gastro intestinal disturbances associated with anti-infective agents. The anti-infective agent may be ampicillin, amoxycillin, cloxacillin cephalexin, cefuroxime or cefixime and the micro organism is preferably a Lacto bacillus.

IPC: B60R1/10
Filed: 1998-04-21
Abstract: An added safety overtaking mirror comprises a main housing, fitted with an adjustable reflector, attached to an adjustable support. The mirror 14 is suitably positioned and attached to a vehicle such that it gives increased forward vision, to that which is normal in the rear facing overtaking mirrors 11, as it enables the driver of a vehicle to see in his rear facing overtaking mirrors a reflection from the forward facing added safety overtaking mirror. Alternatively, if required, a small rear facing reflector could be attached to the rear facing mirrors provided by the vehicle manufacturers. The invention, when used this way is suitable for all existing light vehicles (cars and vans). A larger version could be used for commercial vehicles, comprising of a forward facing mirror, attached to a bracket secured to the side or top or part of a vehicle and a seperate rear facing mirror positioned to reflect the image to the driver. The invention also allows for a rear facing overtaking mirror with a forward facing added safety overtaking mirror incorporated in the housing design at manufacture. This concept allows for the added safety overtaking mirror to become an intrinsic part of the rear view overtaking mirror and would be suitable for fitting to new vehicles on manufacture. The reflectors could be flat, convex or concave, as a matter of preference. If required the joint securing the main housing to the support, could be made to release on impact.

Title: Communication device and method for interference suppression in a ds-cdma system
Inventor: MADHOW UPAMANYU
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 1998-12-21
Abstract: Method and apparatus for completely suppressing interference vectors in a DS-CDMA communication system (100). Rake receiver circuits (122, 124, 126, 128) are assigned (404, 406) to multipath from sectors both in soft handoff and not in soft handoff with the receiver. For each receiver circuit, a set of traffic channels present on the sector's signal is determined (410). For each receiver circuit, the interference is ranked (412) according to predetermined interference criteria. A set of interference vectors is selected (414) from the ranked lists of interference and an orthogonal projection is computed (416) of the receiver's desired code or Walsh code relative to the selected set of interference vectors. The receiver circuit then uses the orthogonal projection in its correlator to despread (418) received data.

Title: A vehicle hill descent control arrangement
Inventor: RANSON MARTIN
IPC: B60K6/46
Filed: 1999-10-14
Abstract: In a hill descent control arrangement for a hybrid drive vehicle having a heat engine 1, a generator 2 and a motor 3 for traction wheels 4, the motor 3 provides regenerative braking by supplying a driving electrical power to the generator 2 to drive the engine 1 and so act as an energy sink to facilitate braking of the wheel 4. A controller 6 monitors operation such that a generated electrical power is provided to the motor 3 in order to drive the wheel 4. However, once such generated electrical power is no longer required the controller 6 arranges for the motor 3 to provide the driving electrical power to generator 2 in order to maintain engine speed 1 despite removal of application of fuel to the engine 1. In such circumstances, efficient braking through the motor 3 upon the wheel 4 can be maintained despite a traction battery 5 reaching capacity or that battery 5 can be arranged to dissipate electrical power through driving the generator 3 and so the engine 1 such that at least a proportion of the driving electrical power from the motor 3 during regenerative braking can be provided and stored in the traction battery 5 as required.

Title: Nuclear reactor power supply system and method of controlling it
IPC: F22B35/00
Filed: 1981-12-25
Abstract: The redundant signals from the sensor assemblies (61, 69,...) measuring the process parameters of a nuclear reactor power supply are transmitted each in its turn to a protection system (53) which operates to actuate the protection apparatus (57) for signals indicating off-process conditions. Each sensor assembly includes a number of like sensors measuring the same parameters. The sets of process signals derived from the sensor assemblies (61, 69,...) are each in its turn transmitted from the protection system to the control system (55) which impresses control signals on the reactor or its components to counteract the tendency for conditions to drift off-normal status requiring operation of the protection system. A parameter signal selector (111, 113) is interposed between the protection system and the control system. This selector prevents a parameter signal of a set of signals, which differs from the other parameter signals of the set by more than twice the allowable variation of the sensors which produce the set, from passing to the control system. The selectors include a pair of signal selection units, one unit (111) sending selected process signals to primary control channels (141) and the other (113) sending selected process signals to back-up control channels (143). Test signals are periodically impressed by a test unit (115) on a selected pair of a selected unit and control channels. When test signals are so impressed the selected control channel is disabled from transmitting control signals to the reactor and/or its associated components. This arrangement eliminates the possibility that a single component failure which may be spurious will cause an inadvertent trip of the reactor during test.
