Title: Filament lamp with improved performance
Inventor: OLWERT RONALD J
IPC: H01K1/50
Filed: 1995-04-13
Abstract: Reduced  power  consumption  is  achieved  in  a filament quartz lamp by encasing the filament in an inner envelope having an elliptical portion.   An IR coating  is  provided  on  the  outer  surface  of  the elliptical portion to reflect selected wavelengths of the emitted light toward the filament.  A fill gas is also maintained at a reduced pressure therein.   A second or outer envelope defines a cavity with the inner envelope.   It is filled with an inert gas to limit oxidation associated with the leads extending from the inner envelope.  The outer envelope is sealed in the base portion, and the alumina silicate glass provides W protection.  This lamp arrangement provides for  decreased  power  consumption  without  adversely affecting the lumen output, lamp life, or dimensional characteristics of the lamp.

Title: Vegetation control method and apparatus
Inventor: NEWSON RICHARD JOHN
IPC: A01M21/04
Filed: 1993-05-07
Abstract: A method of killing or controlling vegetation particularly along roadside berms involves the application of pressurised hot water from a moving applicator head in close proximity to the ground. The pressurised hot water is applied as jets of hot water from an applicator head at a temperature in the range of 100 °C to 110 °C and a flow rate of about 10 litres/minute supplied from one or pumps operating at a pump pressure of between 200 and 1000 psi. The apparatus is mounted on or in a vehicle such as a van, containing a water tank (1), a boiler (2) arranged to heat pressurised water supplied by a pump (4) under pressure to the boiler (2). The pump (4) is a piston pump which supplies the pressurised water through the boiler to a hand held applicator (5) or optionally a towed boom applicator (6). The hand held applicator (5) has an applicator head inside a shroud so that the pressurised hot water is applied to the surface of vegetation as jets of water within the confines of the shroud.
Patent CA-2162945-A1 (CA)
Inventor: CARROLL DAVID T
IPC: A46B5/02
Filed: 1995-11-15
Abstract: A plastic looped handle has a front ring with two parallel members connected by a front brush head member. Bristles in curved rows extend from one side of the brush head for brushing of teeth, while convex protrusions extend from the other side of the brush head for tongue cleaning. A center bar extends across the front ring, and a rear ring extends rearwardly from the center bar.  A front opening is defined between the front ring and the center bar and a rear opening is defined between the rear ring and the center bar. Both openings are sufficiently large to receive at least two human fingers therethrough. The center bar defines an angle with one of the front members of less than 90 degrees, to thereby define a wedge space, into which the hand of a user may be inserted and wedged to thereby retain control of the toothbrush. The two front members are spaced from one another a width to permit the insertion of the brush head into a user's mouth, while the rear ring is substantially wider than the front ring, to thereby permit the support of the brush within the non-extended fingers of a crabbed hand. The brush is particularly suited for use by those who have lost some gripping abilities, and by those who must brush the teeth of others. In addition, by providing black bristles, the brush may be used to brush the teeth of pets.

Title: Verotoxin pharmaceutical compositions and medical treatments therewith
Inventor: LINGWOOD CLIFFORD A
IPC: A61K47/12
Filed: 1995-11-24
Abstract: Pharmaceutical compositions comprising known verotoxins, particularly, verotoxin 1 and their pentameric subunit B, have been found to be useful in the treatment of mammalian neoplasia, particularly, brain cancer, ovarian cancer, breast cancer and skin cancer. Although verotoxin 1 has previously been shown to have anti-neoplastic activity in vitro, non-lethal doses of verotoxin 1 have been shown to be therapeutically anti- neoplastic in vivo. Use of a sensitizer, such as sodium butyrate, enhances the efficacy of verotoxins and their subunit B.
