Title: Food processing method and system
Inventor: KULIK WILLIAM M
IPC: A23B7/055
Filed: 1997-09-04
Granted: 2002-02-12
Abstract: Various food processing methods and a food processing system minimize microbial growth while an animal, such as a chicken, is processed into food. During processing, temperature of an animal carcass and atmosphere surrounding the carcass are controlled by spraying gases and a mixture of ozone and water on the carcass, directing the gases through a passage in a wall to cool a processing area, and flowing the gases into atmosphere surrounding the carcass. Preferably, the gases include ozone and cryogenic gases recycled from a cryogenic freezer. The system uses a reduced amount of fresh water by recycling water used during food processing.

Granted: 2002-08-20
Abstract: A multiple-unit railway vehicle comprises three wagons (1, 2, 3), adjacent wagons being interconnected in articulated manner by a single coupling joint (8) and each wagon (1, 2, 3) being mounted only on a two-axle bogie. In the region of the respective coupling joint (8), and optionally on the bogies (4), are actuator elements (10, 11) which are used to influence the inflection angle between the longitudinal shafts of the wagons. In order to be able to control the inflection angle such that, when travelling over a curved track line section, the wagons adopt a position relative to one another which corresponds at least largely to the respective track line section in the static rest position of the railway vehicle, the track section path during travel is determined for a line section which currently lies between the first and last bogies and the desired position is determined therefrom, the actuator arrangement (10, 11) counteracting at least one overshoot or undershoot above or below the desired value.

Title: Fastener assembly with lateral end extension
Inventor: ERNST RICHARD J
IPC: F16B15/08
Filed: 1998-09-22
Granted: 2002-09-17
Abstract: The present invention is a fastener assembly including a row of fasteners maintained in position by a carrier. The carrier includes a plurality of adjacent sleeves, each of which includes an upper breakable portion, a middle wall portion and a lower breakable portion. When a fastener is driven into a work piece, the upper and middle portions of the fastener sleeve break away and the lower portion breaks into fragments, so that no residual sleeve parts remain with the fastener. This is accomplished by forming the carrier from a mixture of a stiff polyolefin material and a particulate filler to impart the necessary brittleness to the carrier sleeves. The plurality of carrier sleeves include two end sleeves. At least one end sleeve includes a lateral end extension in the lower breakable portion which helps to balance and stabilize the fastener assembly in the shear block and magazine holder of a fastener driving tool.

Abstract: A supervisory signal (18) for a derived channel data reporting system is implemented as a tone having a frequency capable of transmission using a telephone signal communicating network (31), including networks incorporating digital equipment, at an attenuated level. The tone preferably has a frequency of from 200 Hz to 300 Hz, and is capable of operating in conjunction with biphase modulated (BPSK), frequency shift keyed (FSK) and multi-tone modulated (MLT) polling systems. Such frequencies are effectively communicated by conventional digital loop carrier systems, despite a limited frequency range, and are of a sufficient magnitude to be detected by the derived channel data reporting system.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé destiné à traiter des tissus biologiques fixes pour inhiber leur calcification après leur implantation dans un corps mammalien. Ce procédé consiste à mettre en contact les tissus biologiques avec une solution de traitement, à induire un déplacement relatif entre les tissus et la solution et à chauffer cette solution. Le déplacement relatif peut être induit en secouant un réceptacle dans lequel le tissu est immergé dans la solution de traitement, ou en agitant la solution du réceptacle. Le déplacement peut être également induit en faisant couler une solution de traitement sur le tissu à traiter. Le tissu peut être libre de se déplacer dans le réceptacle de traitement ou peut être empêché d'avoir des déplacements brusques. L'écoulement peut être intégré à un système de circulation comportant un réservoir, un dispositif chauffant étant ménagé pour chauffer la solution de traitement dans le réservoir. Selon une autre réalisation, un appareil de traitement, comprenant ou non un système de circulation fluide, peut être enfermé dans un incubateur. Le tissu peut être placé selon une configuration planaire, généralement parallèle au sens de l'écoulement du fluide. Une colonne d'écoulement comportant une pluralité de sections divisées par des chicanes perforées peut être utilisée pour traiter plusieurs tissus en même temps.
