Title: Exercise apparatus and method of exercising
Inventor: RAWLS R LEE
IPC: A63B21/002
Filed: 1994-03-09
Abstract: An exercise apparatus having a vertically movable weight, and an input pedal mechanism engaged by the user to input an input power with a unidirectional exercise force at a user-selected velocity for moving the weight upward. Also included is a brake applying a negative braking power with a unidirectional braking force opposing the exercise force. The braking power has a braking velocity for permitting downward movement of the weight. A brake controller controls the application of the brake to maintain the braking velocity at a selected constant velocity for at least a selected portion of the user's exercise time. A differential member is coupled to the weight and receives the input power and the braking power. The differential member determines a differential between the user-selected velocity and the selected constant braking velocity, and applies the resultant to movement of the weight. If the user-selected velocity is greater than the braking velocity, the weight is lifted, and if the user-selected velocity is less than the selected constant braking velocity, the weight is lowered. If they match, the weight is maintained in a stationary elevated position.

Patent AU-6089498-A (AU)
Title: Modulator for plasma-immersion ion implantation
Inventor: GUNZEL REINHARD
IPC: H01J37/32
Filed: 1998-01-17
Abstract: A modulator for regulating high voltage pulsed plasma-immersion ion implantation (PIII) acting as a substantial component in a PIII installation is provided. The modulator enables low-cost, easy connection and disconnection of a flow of large high voltage pulsed currents during PIII. In the modulator, pulse regulation occurs by means of an additional electrode which is controlled by a shielding grid as opposed to a high voltage switch mounted as a technically autonomous unit. The electrode and shielding grid are integrated into the implantation chamber and connected to a capacitor to provide high voltage. The shielding grid is triggered by a pulse generator with voltage pulses of 1-2000 V. The shielding grid surrounding the electrode is immersed in plasma and ensures that the additional electrode is either insulated from the plasma or in electric contact therewith by applying controllable grid voltages. In the latter case, the discharge current circuit of the capacitor is closed in a manner similar to that of a switch as in known modulators.

Patent AU-8065782-A (AU)
Title: Expression of exogenous polypeptides in yeast
Inventor: HITZEMAN RONALD A
IPC: C12N1/16
Filed: 1982-02-22
Abstract: In order to make a yeast strain capable of expressing a desired polypeptide (e.g. leukocyte interferon D) which it does not normally make or use, it is transformed with an expression vector. This is obtained by producing a transfer vector which has respective origins of replication and phenotypic selection genes derived from both bacteria and yeast, and inserting into it DNA fragments: (i) coding for the desired polypeptide and (ii) comprising a yeast-derived promoter. The insertion is effected so that 'start' and 'stop' signals are provided, and these and the promoter can control expression of the polypeptide, and so that the replication origins and phenotypic selection genes of the transfer vector are still functional. Thus the expression vector and its precursors can replicate, and their presence can be recognised, both in yeast and bacteria. Bacteria are used for amplification. The yeast-derived phenotypic selection gene may complement a mutation carried by the strain to be transformed.

Title: Barrier materials for making metal matrix composites
Inventor: AGHAJANIAN MICHAEL KEVORK
IPC: C22C47/02
Filed: 1991-05-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to a novel process for forming metal matrix composite bodies by using a reactive barrier material. Particularly, an infiltration enhancer or an infiltration enhancer precursor or an infiltrating atmosphere are in communication with a filler material or a preform, at least at some point during the process, which permits molten matrix metal to spontaneously infiltrate the filler material or preform up to the reactive barrier material. Such spontaneous infiltration occurs without the requirement for the application of any pressure or vacuum. Accordingly, shaped metal matrix composite bodies can be produced having superior surface finish.

Title: A new chemical entity (endipalene) in the treatment of psoriasis
Inventor: ENDRICI GIORGIO
IPC: A61K31/09
Filed: 1998-08-27
Abstract: In the literature, a correlation between the inhibition of 5-lipoxygenase and anti-inflammatory and immunomodulatory activity sufficient to effectively treat psoriasis, is known. It seems that, in particular, the excellent results can be obtained with lonapalene (6-chloro-2,3-dimethoxynaphthalendioldiacetate). However, the clinical use of lonapalene has not been successful most likely due to the significant number of side effects. With these considerations, after various studies, we have identified a molecule which we have patented with the name of endipalene, which seems to guarantee notable therapeutic results without side effects.

Title: Tennis, squash, or badminton racquet construction - has fluid filled ducts from handgrip running around divided frame ducts
IPC: A63B49/00
Filed: 1986-04-24
Abstract: Liquids of different specific gravity and viscosity may be used to flow in ducts leading from a hollow handgrip to ducts inside frame. As liquid flows from the handgrip to the frame, the weight increases at the frame tip and enables the player to hit the ball with more force. - The racquet has a handgrip (1), neck (2) and frame head (3). The frame encloses ducts (5) filled with fluid (6). Both sides the ducting are separated. Torsion forces are thus eliminated. Both halves (10,11) are split into two ducts with bores (12).
