Title: Bioreactor design and process for engineering tissue from cells
Inventor: MACDONALD JEFFREY M
IPC: C12M3/00
Filed: 2000-06-05
Granted: 2005-03-03
Abstract: A scaled-up multi-coaxial fiber bioreactor, and variations of this bioreactor. The device is characterized by a hollow housing and an array of from about 20 to about 400 modules of hollow fibers, where each module includes at least three coaxial semipermeable hollow fibers. The innermost fiber provides a boundary for an innermost compartment which is connected to inlet and outlet ports. Arranged coaxially around the central hollow fiber are several other hollow fibers with their respective compartments, each compartment defined by a respective annular space between adjacent fibers and each including inlet and outlet ports. An outermost compartment for permitting integral aeration is the space between the outer side of the outermost fibers and the inner side of the housing, and has inlet and outlet ports. The hollow housing has inlet and outlet manifolds and flow distributors for each of the compartments. In a preferred embodiment, the bioreactor is used as an extracorporeal liver. Liver cells are introduced into one or more annular compartments and media and aeration are provided in others. Plasma from an ailing patient is introdued into another compartment for biotransformation of blood-borne toxins and biosynthesis of proteins, lipids, and other metabolic products.

Title: Plug-in coupling
Inventor: MUNSTER WILFRIED
IPC: F16L37/138
Filed: 2000-05-31
Granted: 2003-01-09
Abstract: The invention relates to a plug-in coupling, comprising a base body (6), a sealing ring (12, 13), a locking ring (40) and an annular body which can be connected to the base body (6). A pipe end (4, 5) can be locked in position, using the locking ring (40). The invention aims to improve the plug-in coupling, so that a connection can be made with at least one pipe end in a simple, functionally safe manner, whereby pipes consisting of different materials can be used. According to the invention, the pipe end (4, 5) can be inserted into an axial annular gap (27) between the base body (6) and the annular body (18, 19) in such a way that the sealing ring (12) lies adjacent to the interior of the pipe end (4, 5), making a good seal with the same and that in addition, the locking ring (40) is located in the annular gap (27). Said locking ring is prestressed and adjoins the locking surface (20) of the annular body (18) on one side and the exterior surface of the inserted pipe end (4, 5) on the other side. In addition, a locking ring (40) is situated in the annular gap (27) which is prestressed and adjoins the locking surface (20, 21) of the annular body (18, 19) on one side and the exterior surface of the inserted pipe end (4, 5) on the other.

Title: Water-conserving toilet
Inventor: HENESSY ARNOLD
IPC: E03D11/13
Filed: 1979-11-13
Granted: 1984-05-31
Abstract: A water-conserving toilet is disclosed and includes a bowl (36) for receiving waste and a waste outlet (40) extending laterally from the bowl (36) and defining a first, shallow trap arranged so that a relatively shallow body of liquid is normally retained in the bottom of the bowl (36) for preventing gaseous flow through the trap. A flush system is provided and is arranged, when operated, to deliver a charge of flushing liquid into the bowl (36) in a direction to cause said body of liquid to be discharged through said outlet (40). A waste holding tank (42) communicates with said bowl outlet (40) for receiving waste from the bowl (36) and the holding tank (42) has an outlet (44) extending outwardly from the tank (42) and adapted for connection to a sewer inlet. The holding tank outlet (44) defines a second trap of substantial height capable of preventing reverse flow of sewer gas into the holding tank (42) in use and the holding tank (42) and second trap are arranged to contain a volume of liquid substantially in excess of the volume discharged from the bowl (36) at each flush. A flexible diaphragm (112) extends across the holding tank (42) above the level at which liquid enters from the bowl (36) and is sealed to the tank in gas-tight fashion. The diaphragm (112) is adapted to flex upwardly and accommodate air displaced as liquid enters the tank (42) from the bowl, (36) so as to minimize air resistance to flushing of liquid from the bowl (36).

Title: Railway wheel monitoring
Inventor: RASAIAH WINSTON GEHAN
IPC: G01M17/10
Filed: 2000-07-13
Granted: 2003-06-26
Abstract: During use, a wheel of a railway vehicle may become out of round, which will be detrimental to both the vehicle suspension and the railway track. The shape of such a wheel may be monitored to detect any such out of roundness, while the wheel is rolling, by measuring how far the flange of the wheel projects below the upper surface of the rail. This may be achieved by mounting a rigid bar (24) alongside the rail (10), the bar (24) being supported resiliently so as to be depressed by a flange of a wheel (40), and by measuring the vertical displacement of the bar. The bar (24) may be supported by a plurality of flat leaf springs (26), which are inclined to the horizontal at for example 30°. This ensures that the bar (24) remains substantially parallel to the top surface of the rail (10) when depressed by the flange of a wheel (40).
