Title: Method for the synthesis of pyrrole and imidazole carboxamides on a solid support
Inventor: DERVAN PETER B
IPC: C07K17/08
Filed: 1997-02-20
Granted: 2001-06-28
Abstract: The present invention describes a novel method for the solid phase synthesis of polyamides containing imidazole and pyrrole carboxamides. The polyamides are prepared on a solid support from aromatic carboxylic acids and aromatic amines with high stepwise coupling yields (>99%), providing milligram quantities of highly pure polyamides. The present invention also describes the synthesis of analogs of the natural products Netropsin and Distamycin A, two antiviral antibiotics. The present invention also describes a novel method for the solid phase synthesis of imidazole and pyrrole carboxamide polyamide-oligonucleotide conjugates. This methodology will greatly increase both the complexity and quantity of minor-groove binding polyamides and minor-groove binding polyamide-oligonucleotide conjugates which can be synthesized and tested.

Title: Surgical prosthetic implant for vertebrae
Inventor: BRANTIGAN JOHN W
IPC: A61F2/30
Filed: 1992-09-04
Granted: 1996-01-04
Abstract: Surgical prosthetic modular implants used singularly or stacked together are provided to support and fuse together adjacent vertebrae or to totally or partially replace one or more vertebrae in a vertebral column. The implants are rigid annular plugs, dimensionally similar to normal vertebral bodies, have simplified oval or hemi-oval shapes with ridged faces to engage adjacent vertebral bodies to resist displacement and allow bone ingrowth and fusion and to interdigitate with the ridges of an adjacent plug for modular stacking to allow variability of ultimate implant height. The implants can be provided in sets of different thicknesses and are internally grooved to receive an upstanding connecting bar to bind together the individual stacked implants into a stable unit. The annular implants have ample spaces to allow ingrowth of blood capillaries and packing of bone graft and are preferably made of a radiolucent material, preferably biocompatible carbon fiber reinforced polymers or are alternately made of traditional orthopaedic implant materials such as nickel, chromium, cobalt, stainless steel or titanium.

Patent AU-665215-B2 (AU)
Title: Manual staple gun
Inventor: MARKS JOEL STEVEN
IPC: B25C5/06
Filed: 1992-09-30
Granted: 1995-12-21
Abstract: A manually powered fastening tool which stores and instantly releases the energy of a spring such that it may force a staple type fastener into an object by an impact blow. In the present invention the squeeze handle is hinged near the end of the tool body opposite the end from which the staples exit. The user grips the tool near the staple exit end and pushes the squeeze handle toward the intended staple impact point. This novel arrangement causes the user to force the staple into the receiving object with the same hand that pushes the squeeze handle toward the tool body, while the prior art typically requires use of a second hand to hold the tool firmly upon the staple impact point. Improving from the prior art, the present design ensures that the staple exit end of the tool body will not lift away from the receiving object. The energy storage spring and handle engagement linkage are located remotely from the plunger in the present design. This allows the user to fully grip the tool near the staple exit end of the tool body. The motion of installing a staple with this novel staple gun is therefore similar to the intuitive motion used with a common desk top stapler.

Title: Apparatus and method of generating stock turbulence in a fourdrinier forming section
Inventor: WHITE JAMES D
IPC: D21F1/20
Filed: 1999-06-17
Granted: 2002-03-28
Abstract: A method and apparatus for generating turbulence in stock to deflocculate the stock in an open surface forming section of a paper making machine comprises a dewatering box (2) providing vacuum assisted drainage and which has a set of dewatering elements that impart turbulence into relatively thick stock layers carried at machine operating speeds of equal up to about 400 m/min, for the production of paper products having a basis weight generally in excess of about 160 gsm. Each set of elements includes a lead-in element (5), at least one intermediate element (6, 7), and a trailing element (8). The path of the forming fabric (13) is deflected downwardly as it passes over the intermediate elements, which are inclined at an angle of from about 0 DEG  to about 10 DEG  from a plane defined by forming fabric supporting surfaces on the lead-in and riser elements. This vertical movement initiates turbulence and agitation in the stock, which acts both to deflocculate the stock and to diminish the possibility of sheet sealing. The apparatus is useable in combination with other known formation and drainage devices which are located either upstream or downstream to augment their performance with thicker, slower moving stock layers.

Date Mar. 3, 1994The present invention relates to a method and apparatus adapted to promote the recycling of complex articles, such as, in particular, printer cartridges, toner cartridges and other complex office items. The invention provides an apparatus having storage space arranged to store a number of such complex articles for recycling. Access to the storage space is controlled by a data processor which interacts with a user by way of a visual display unit and control panel. If the user wishes to store an item, he indicates this by way of the control panel and the apparatus is then operable to open a receptacle to receive the used item. When the used item is placed in the receptacle, in preferred embodiments means are provided to determine that the used item is an article of an appropriate type to be stored. These means preferably employ shape recognition. The article will be rejected if it is not of the correct type and accepted and retained in a storage space if it is of the correct type. The preferred apparatus is also arranged to dispense items on request by the user. A preferred feature is that the apparatus will not dispense a new or recycled item if a predetermined ratio of new items dispensed to used items stored by that user would be exceeded. This encourages recycling.
