Title: Biological denitrification of water
Inventor: SILVERSTEIN JOANN
IPC: C02F3/28
Filed: 1997-01-10
Abstract: Biological denitrification of water using one or more bioreactor units containing bioreactor media, a prefilter assembly containing prefilter media, and a slow sand filter containing sand filter media. Each bioreactor unit requires certain water flow related values and the bioreactor media must have certain material or dimensional characteristics. An air scouring process is constrained to predetermined parameter values to remove excess biomass material from the bioreactor media. The prefilter assembly also includes a flow distribution device for providing uniform water flow throughout the cross-section of the prefilter media. In one embodiment, the prefilter assembly and the slow sand filter assembly are semi-portable in that they have a reduced size with limited dimensions. This enables the prefilter assembly and the slow sand filter assembly to be made at a remote location and transported to the site at which water is to be denitrified. The semi-portable aspect of the slow sand filter assembly results from a number of structural aspects including being made of modular filter containers, thin, reinforced walls being made of weldable materials, lifting elements connected to the walls, a container floor supported by a platform and filtered water carrying pipes that communicate with a common pipe located outside of the filter container.

Title: Self-contained continuously-variable transmission with mechanical integral torque converter having automatic drive control
Inventor: GONZALEZ RODRIGO BORBOLLA
IPC: F16H15/50
Filed: 2000-12-15
Abstract: An automotive transmission that has a planetary system which receives the power by the porter and transmits it initially in a direct way with low pitch rate by the sun gear, and afterwards in a regulated manner, to keep the optimum engine power, through a planetary system installed inside a growing diameter cylinder impeller, coupled to the ring gear. Such system consists of several adjacent rollers that have a pitch and splines system for making a proper contact with the cone, which receive the traction from the conic impeller, and transmit it to the central gear with a variable speed, depending to the demanded torque, measured by a sensing spring mechanism installed at the sun gear, that can be manually adjusted to maintain an overdrive or economy output torque. The sun gear is coupled to a shaft (which operates initially as a tranmission shaft), with a helical slat which sets the receptor system to an axial position, corresponding to the demanded power, to make contact with certain diameter of the cone, and though, synchronized the shift of sequence, by substracting the unequal speeds between the shaft coupled to the central gear, and of the sun gear. <IMAGE>
Patent AU-2347284-A (AU)
Title: Pump actuator
Inventor: JAY MILLER PHILLIP
IPC: A61M60/837
Filed: 1983-11-30
Abstract: An actuator (12) and sac (14) for use in a pump having a pump chamber whose contents are expelled by movement of a pair of pusher plates (30, 32) toward one another. The actuator includes opposed solenoid armatures (50, 52) which are operable for movement between open and closed positions. The armatures are each operatively connected to an associated pusher plate by a main spring (90, 92) which is attached at one end to the back end of the armature, extends through a front-to-back slot in an armature core, and is connected at its opposite end to the pusher plate. A pair of preload springs (114, 116) carried on each armature and disposed on either side of the associated main spring acts to hold the main spring in a prestressed condition prior to solenoid actuation. With closure of the armatures, and with the sac still in an expanded condition, the main springs are disengaged from the associated preload spring and placed in a more stressed, more planar configuration, with the increased stress in each main spring being relieved by movement of the pusher plates toward one another. The sac has an annular side wall which is held in a rigid condition, and a pair of opposed circular walls, each joined to the annular side wall through a flexible annular wall portion. A circular pusher plate acting against each circular wall has an initial deflection position at which the associated flexible wall portion in the sac takes the form of a circumferentially uniform roll having an outwardly convex, bulged cross sectional curvature. The rolls in the sac maintain their circumferentially uniform, bulge-like character as the pusher plates are moved toward inwardly moved positions.

Title: Process and device for preventing interference of transients in a buck cell
Inventor: KISLOVSKI ANDRE
IPC: H02H9/02
Filed: 1988-10-12
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/CH88/00188 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 21, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Jul. 10, 1989 PCT Filed Oct. 12, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/03608 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 20, 1989.A voltage control regulator features a power switch in the form of a transistor that is normally actuated for a constant switch-on time interval during each variable period interval (T). The type of control required in this case comprises, conventionally, a monostable multivibrator, a controller, and a voltage/frequency converter. The present control system is subordinated to an emergency control circuit which, via a priority loop, intervenes in the control process as soon as the current flowing through the switching transistor threatens to become excessive. This emergency control unit thus constitutes a predictive type of control that employs knowledge of the operation of the voltage control regulator and the instantaneous values of the input and output voltages of the voltage control regulator, in order to predict the voltage increase during the period interval (T). Such an arrangement permits the emergency control unit to react very quickly.

Title: Analyte-controlled liquid delivery device and analyte monitor
Inventor: GROSS JOSEPH
IPC: A61K9/70
Filed: 1995-10-27
Abstract: A liquid delivery device comprising a housing having a lower surface for application to the skin of a subject and having a reservoir and a gas generation chamber therein separated by a displaceable membrane. Gas generated by an electrolytic cell under the control of a microprocessor causes the gas generation chamber to expand and the reservoir to contract, thereby discharging a liquid drug, such as insulin, from the reservoir via a hollow delivery needle extending from the lower surface. The delivery needle and a sensor needle both extend from the lower surface a sufficient distance so as to penetrate through the epidermis and into the dermis when the housing is pressed against the skin. The sensor needle has an enzymatic coating for the detection of an analyte, such as glucose in the subject's plasma. The delivery needle is made of platinum-iridium, and a current passes between the needles and a potentiostat circuit according to the amount of glucose detected. A reference electrode (silver/silver chloride) which rests against the subject's skin increases the accuracy of the glucose measurement. The current through the potentiostat circuit is measured by a voltmeter and a signal from the voltmeter is amplified and communicated to the microprocessor which determines the correct rate of delivery of the drug on the basis of the level of analyte detected in the subject's plasma.
