Abstract: A load bearing article (1) is described and includes a plurality of elongated shells (20) having a plurality of internal reinforcing ribs (50) fixedly attached within the hollow interior (35) of each shell (20), the shells (20) reside substantially within a common plane and are fixedly attached together by means of an external molded plastic structure (53). Each elongated shell (20) has a plurality perforations (e.g., perforations 38, 41, 44 and 45) having edges. A portion of the plastic material of the internal reinforcing ribs (50) and the external molded structure (53) extends through at least some of the perforations in each shell (20), and the edges of the perforations are embedded in the plastic material extending therethrough, thereby fixedly attaching the internal reinforcing ribs (50) within and the external molded structure (53) to each shell (20). The load bearing surtace (87) of the load bearing article (1) comprises (or is defined by at least) the external molded structure (53) (e.g., external molded structure (53) and at least one of, the elongated shells (20), and the plurality of internal reinforcing ribs (50)). The load bearing article is preferably formed by concurrently molding the plastic material of the plurality of internal reinforcing ribs (50) onto the interior surfaces (32), and the external molded structure (53) onto the exterior surfaces (29), of the elongated shells (20). Also described is a reversibly extendable load bearing structure (11) that includes at least two load bearing articles (1 and 1') connected together by means of a hinge (165).

Abstract: The present invention is a device for delivering insulin to a subject with impaired hepatic glucose processing. The device delivers a series of pulses of insulin to the subject over a period of time accompanied by ingestion of glucose in the form of a carbohydrate containing meal. The amount of insulin in each pulse, the interval between pulses and the amount of time to deliver each pulse to the subject are selected so that the hepatic processing of glucose is restored in the subject. Initially after ingestion of the carbohydrate containing meal, the subject's circulating blood glucose level rises. In subjects whose hepatic glucose processing has been restored there is a subsequent fall in circulating blood glucose levels of 50 mg/dl or more directly as a result of hepatic glucose processing being restored to the liver.

Abstract: A disposable syringe includes a tubular needle seat inserted into a barrel for fixing a needle cannula. The needle seat has an axially extending cavity with a radially yieldable catch disposed therein. A plunger is movable in the barrel, and has an engaging head defining a rearwardly facing shoulder wall which is retained by the catch when the engaging head is extended into the cavity by a pushing force applied to the plunger.       The barrel defines friction diminishing regions such that when the needle seat is moved past the friction diminishing regions to be placed to a disposal position, friction between the needle seat and the barrel is diminished, thereby facilitating a subsequent pulling action of the plunger for retracting the needle cannula into the barrel.

Title: Method and device for introducing liquids into a flow of solids of a spouted bed apparatus
Inventor: JACOB MICHAEL
IPC: B01J8/18
Filed: 2003-12-31
Granted: 2011-07-12
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for introducing fluids into a solids flow of a spouted bed apparatus, as well as an associated apparatus. For the present invention, it is characteristic that at least one circular solids flow is formed in the axial direction of the reaction space of the spouted bed apparatus, for which the inlet air required for forming the solids flow is fed through a gap in the lower region and in the axial direction of the reaction space and the fluid is introduced by means of one or more single or multiple-component nozzles at one or more positions into the solids flow. Therefore, the flow conditions in the injection region can be set, so that the fluid can be introduced selectively and adjustably into the solids flow. The resulting end product distinguishes itself through approximately equal grain size with equal material properties. Through the spraying of pure fluids, solutions, molten masses, or the like through one or more single or multiple-component nozzles into the solids flow, different end products can be produced.

Patent CA-2524151-C (CA)
Inventor: PATTERSON ROGER L
IPC: F16B45/04
Filed: 2005-10-06
Granted: 2009-12-22
Abstract: A coupling device that requires no manual actuation to achieve coupling features a locking bolt movable along a hole extending into a mouth of a hook body to secure a coupling pin therein. A control lever pivotally connected to the locking bolt opposite the mouth end is biased toward a locked position in which motion of the locking bolt is blocked. To engage the coupling pin and the hook mouth, the coupling pin and an operable pin extending through the hollow locking bolt are brought into contact. This causes an end of the operable pin opposite the mouth to push against the control lever to unlock it from the latching position. The coupling pin pushes the locking bolt out of the mouth so that it can pass by further into it, at which point the lever and bolt return to the locked positions to secure the coupling pin inside.
