Title: Improvements in and relating to medicament injection apparatus
IPC: A61M5/00
Filed: 2002-01-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to a medicament injection apparatus. It is desirable following injection of a medicament to wait a short time before withdrawing the needle unit from the patient to allow injected medicament to disperse within the patient to reduce the risk of some of the injected medicament escaping through the needle wound and so not being dispersed into the patient as desired. This problem is particularly acute where a patient uses the apparatus to self-administer a dose since, where this waiting period is indicated to a user, the waiting period is a set time independent of whether the size of the dose to be injected. The user often feels that for a small dose it is not as important to leave the needle unit within the body for the full waiting period and so does not allow the waiting period properly to elapse. A medicament injection apparatus is disclosed wherein signal means actuated by a processor for signal the end of a predetermined period of time elapsing from the end of the injection operation wherein the predetermined period of time elapsing is dependent upon the amount of the medicament injected. This has as an advantage the giving of a user confidence that the waiting period for each dose size is important and should be respected.

Title: Electrofusion coupler
IPC: B29C65/02
Filed: 1985-10-24
Abstract: An electrofusion coupler sleeve for use in connecting together two plastics pipes by fitting the ends into opposite ends of the sleeve and passing an electric current through a resistance heater (17) embedded in the sleeve adjacent its inner surface (10) to fuse together the pipes and the sleeve, incor­porates visual indicating means (24, 30) for indicating if the electrical energy supplied has been adequate for proper fusing. The indicating means takes the form of a blind bore (24) extending into the sleeve from the exterior towards the interior. When, in use, the heater (17) is energised, if the electrical energy supplied has been adequate for proper fusing, the softened flowable plastics material is forced, by the pressure produced by heating and fusing, to rise within the blind bore (24) and project from the outer surface of the sleeve. The sleeve may comprise an inner plastics layer (10) of a colour contrasting with that of the outer layer (14), so that, if fusing has been adequate, the contrasting material of the inner layer (10) projects, from the blind bore (24), above the material of the outer layer (14).

Title: Composite electric and optical cable manufacture
IPC: H01B13/00
Filed: 1990-04-09
Abstract: In a simple and inexpensive method of manufacturing a composite electric and optical cable incorporating a flexible tube having a flexible optical waveguide 6 loosely housed in the bore of the tube, the flexible electric cable 10, without a flexible optical guide loosely housed in the bore of the flexible tube 5, is wound around the hub of a cable drum 14 in such a way that each end of the wound cable is exposed and accessible. The flexible optical guide 6 is then accommodated in the bore of the flexible tube 5 of the wound cable 10 by introducing a leading end of the optical guide into the end of the bore of the flexible tube at one exposed end 11 of the wound cable and by propelling the optical guide along the bore of the wound cable by fluid drag of a gaseous medium which is passed through the bore in the desired direction of advance at such a pressure that the optical guide is carried along the bore until the optical guide is loosely housed in and throughout the length of the bore of the flexible tube of the wound cable. <IMAGE>

Title: Cleaning and other vehicles
IPC: E01H1/08
Filed: 1990-06-08
Abstract: A self-propelled sweeper vehicle has a suction nozzle (22) trailed from a front-mounted downwardly extending linkage (80), and is constrained at its rear end by the connection to the suction duct (30). A linear actuator physically shifts in a lateral direction the connection of the linkage to the front of the nozzle, in response to control signals. The steering of the nozzle is related to the steering of the brush gear and/or the vehicle's steerable wheels in an automatic manner. Thus the nozzle maintains a proper relationship to the vehicle and its brush gear in an automatic manner. The steering of the brush gear itself is effected by the driver independently of the vehicle steering, whereby driver control is maximised while unswept trails are minimised. <IMAGE>

Title: Screen printing stencil production
IPC: B41N1/24
Filed: 1997-09-25
Abstract: A screen printing stencil is produced chemically by application of a chemical agent 5 to a screen mesh 3 having a stencil-forming layer. The chemical agent 5 is applied dropwise using computer-controlled apparatus. The chemical agent reacts with the stencil-forming agent to harden the stencil in areas which remain upon subsequent wash-out. The stencil so produced can be used for screen printing in the usual way. The method avoids the use of safe lights and actinic radiation. The apparatus used can be a commercially-available apparatus designed for direct application of liquids dropwise to screens mounted in their frames. The stencil-forming layer can be provided using a commercially-available emulsion-coated film or a commercially-available emulsion applied directly to the screen mesh. <IMAGE>
