Title: Vacuum box with skimmer blade
Inventor: PITT RICHARD E
IPC: D21F1/52
Filed: 2001-12-14
Granted: 2007-04-24
Abstract: A process, and an apparatus, for improving sheet properties in a twin fabric paper making machine forming section whereby pressure pulse generation in the stock can be controlled. The pressure pulses are controlled by mounting a vacuum assisted skimmer blade (15) supported by an adjustable resilient support means (18) so that its height can be altered, and so that it can respond to transient changes in the stock layer thickness. The resilient and adjustable support means (18) itself is supported by a vacuum drainage box (10), which serves to capture at least the major proportion of the fluid skimmed of by the skimmer blade (15). This apparatus the position of the skimmer blade (15) to be altered in two ways without stopping the paper making machine. The skimmer blade (15) can be located either so that it is out of contact with the forming fabric (3), or so that it can be in contact with the forming fabric. By adjusting the resilient adjustable mounting, the amount of pressure exerted by the skimmer blade (15) onto the forming fabric surface is controllable, thus controlling the pressure pulses generated by the skimmer blade. The orientation of the skimmer blade can also be controlled, so that rather than the blade surface being substantially parallel to the machine side surface of the forming fabric, it can be angled somewhat with either its leading or its trailing edge pressed into the fabric.

Title: Estrogen dependent transactivation system for gender sorting in avian species
Inventor: BUTT TAUSEEF
IPC: C12Q1/6897
Filed: 2002-04-23
Granted: 2011-04-05
Abstract: The disclosure relates to methods of detecting target molecules, such as hormones, using a hormone-dependent transactivation system. The disclosure also includes a sex hormone-dependent transactivation system and kit for gender sorting in avian species, which provides a quick, inexpensive, automated method to sex segregate avian eggs before hatching. Genetically engineered host cells containing the sex hormone-dependent transactivation system are contacted with a biological sample, and the engineered cells respond to the level of sex hormone in the biological sample by activating a reporter gene, which is indicative of the presence of the sex hormone. The disclosure further provides methods of gender sorting in avian species using the sex hormone-dependent transactivation system, which enables pre-hatch sorting of female embryos from male embryos.

Abstract: Selon la présente invention, une plaque de charge tronconique transfère des charges sur un joint situé entre des dalles de plancher en béton adjacentes. Les surfaces supérieures et inférieures peuvent diminuer progressivement à partir d'environ 4 pouces de largeur jusqu'à une extrémité étroite sensiblement pointue sur une longueur d'environ 12 pouces. La plaque de charge tronconique s'adapte à un retrait différentiel de dalles en béton coulées sur place. Lorsque des dalles adjacentes s'éloignent les unes des autres, l'extrémité étroite de la plaque de charge tronconique sort du vide qu'il a créé dans la dalle, permettant ainsi aux dalles de se déplacer relativement les unes aux autres parallèlement au joint. Les plaques de charge tronconiques peuvent être assemblées en un écran de plaques de charge, le sens du bord aminci alternant entre une plaque de charge tronconique et la suivante pour compenser des traits de scie excentrés. Une plaque de charge tronconique et un couvre-joint peuvent être utilisés pour permettre un transfert de charge sur un joint de dilatation.

Title: Injections for eye tissues containing drug bonded to polyethylene glycol
Inventor: TASAKA HUMITAKA
IPC: A61K47/34
Filed: 2002-09-27
Granted: 2012-09-18
Abstract: The present invention relates to injections for ocular tissues containing a conjugate covalently bonded a drug to PEG. When the drug--PEG conjugate is injected into the ocular tissues, the drug can be retained in the ocular tissues such as an iris, a ciliary body, a vitreous body, a retina and an optic nerve for a long period. Accordingly, the injections for ocular tissues of the present invention make it possible to treat or prevent diseases in various ocular tissues over a long period by a single administration. PEG can be any of straight-chain, stellate and branched. In the case of straight--chain PEG, since the drugs are generally bonded using hydroxyl groups at its both ends, a binding ratio of the drug to PEG is 1:1 or 2:1. Since stellate and branched PEGs have plural hydroxyl groups, plural covalent bond of drugs to PEG can be formed.

Title: Computer performance optimization method and main non-volatile storage medium optimized with purpose-specific sections
Inventor: MEJIAS BUTRON MANUEL FERNANDO
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2002-11-28
Granted: 2011-07-05
Abstract: A method is revealed to optimize the performance of a computer by creating purpose--specific sections in its main non-volatile storage medium. Said method creates a basic set of purpose-specific sections in order to separate, at a physical level and at a logical level, vital elements for equipment operation such as operating system, dynamic files, applications and user's files. Optionally, the method creates an additional set of purpose--specific sections for storing other non-vital elements separated in like manner. A secondary method, which supplements the previous one in order to quickly optimize an unlimited number of identical computers, is also shown. For users and owners of a computer, as well as for the technicians that serve them, using this invention optimizes the time and results attained by the remote or on-site execution of those tasks required to improve performance, information security, and availability of computing resources during the system's lifespan. Among such tasks are file defragmentation, data backup, damage repair of installed software, deep cleansing of malware, and the use of preventive and corrective maintenance tools and techniques. Such benefits are unattainable simultaneously by means of the traditional techniques or the optimization proposals published to date.

Granted: 2015-08-11
Abstract: Apparatus (10) for controlling rotation of an input (12) in the most preferred form of a brake includes a housing (50) which can be positioned in either first or second positions. In the first position, a piston (66) moves out of its cavity (64) in the housing (50) and forces a plate (76a) including the piston (66) and an interface facing (80) toward an interface disc (20) while a release spring (92) located in a countersink (74) acts on a fastener (98) to move the first plate (76a) away from the interface disc (20). When flipped to the second position, the piston (66) moves out of its cavity (64) in the housing (50) and forces a second plate (76b) interconnected to the first plate (76a) away from the interface disc (20) while engaging springs (90) sandwiched in cavities (70) between the housing (50) and the first plate (76a) including the interface facing (80) force the first plate (76a) toward the interface disc (20). Thus, apparatus (10) can be assembled to be either fluid engaged or fluid released from the same components, with the use of the same components to construct rotational control apparatus (10) with different actuation methods resulting in lower component fabrication and inventory costs.

Abstract: A fastener nut is formed with anti-cross threading features that include a rounded or chamfered edge at the entry end to the nut, followed by an unthreaded cylindrical counterbore that extends axially from the entry end to the threaded section of the bore. The rounded or chamfered entry end prevents cross threading and the unthreaded section is of sufficient length to ensure substantially collinear alignment between the threaded fastener and the correspondingly threaded nut before threaded engagement occurs. An optional radiused portion is formed between the unthreaded and threaded sections of the nut to further prevent cross threading. The nut can be a weld nut formed with weld protrusions which enable the nut to be welded to a large structural member before mating engagement with a threaded fastener occurs. The nut can additionally have convex or concave or other tactile feed back features that induce vibration when a large off-angle is being attempted.
