Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP92/00962 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 15, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 15, 1994 PCT Filed May 4, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO92/19379 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 12, 1992.Brittle material (1) is ground batchwise as a bed of particles by compression between non-yielding hard surfaces at a pressure of at least 50 MPa. In order to reduce the energy requirement and machine expenditure needed for fine, superfine and microfine comminution, the bed of particles is subjected to repeated stressing by pistons (4) in different directions and at least in part successively. The stressing preferably is accomplished by groups of two opposed pistons (4), which are offset at an angle with respect to each other and which are rendered active one after the other. The stressing is repeated in another plane of the grinding chamber. Wet grinding is carried out in a closed grinding chamber from which the liquid expelled from the voids between the particles being ground can drain through at least one aperture of narrow cross section.

Title: Blood culture assembly with an externally actuated valve
Inventor: SCHWARTZ ALAN A
IPC: F16K7/00
Filed: 1989-02-08
Granted: 1991-07-11
Abstract: A culture bottle assembly has a container divided into two compartments by a flange. A closure and flexible septum seals the container from the outside environment. A frame inside the container is moveable between two positions. In one position the two compartments are sealed from each other, and in the second position fluid communication exists between the compartments. The frame has an elongated member and a skirt. The skirt engages the flange to form a seal. Downward force in the elongated member causes the skirt to flex. Cooperating means create a gap between the skirt and the flange when the skirt flexes. The flexible septum covers the elongated member thereby allowing force to be applied to the elongated member without opening the container. A solid media holder has trays for holding solid media in the upper compartment.

Title: Article having a pliable portion which is to be elastically secured about the periphery of a member
Inventor: MUCKENFUHS DELMAR RAY
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1989-03-23
Granted: 1991-07-25
Abstract: The pliable portion of the article (80) has a first end portion (1) and a second end portion located at opposite ends of the encircling portion of the article. The first end portion (1) includes an elasticized fastening system (120) having at least one segment (15) which is capable of being elastically shirred along at least a portion of its length. The shirrable portion of the segment (15) comprises an elastomeric member which, prior to the securement of the first and second end portions of the article to one another, is maintained in a prestretched and tensioned condition in the desired direction of shirring. The opposed ends of the shirrable segment in the article (80) are interconnected to one another through the prestretched and tensioned elastomeric member. The prestretched and tensioned elastomeric member is maintained in tension by securing it in fixed relation to at least one rigidifying member (28) to form a composite structure which is strong enough to resist collapse in a direction parallel to the tensile forces acting upon the prestretched and tensioned elastomeric member. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the rigidifying member (28) has a fixed portion (30) permanently secured to the first end portion (1) of the article (80) and a releasable portion (32) which can be separated from the first end portion of the article. The releasable portion (32) of the rigidifying member (28) preferably includes means for securing it to the second end portion (2) of the article (80), and the act of affixing the releasable portion (32) of the rigidifying member (28) to the second end portion (2) of the article (80) automatically releases the tension in the prestretched elastomeric member. Elasticized fastening systems of the present invention can be produced at high speed from continuous webs and cut into discrete segments which are transferred onto a continuously moving web at predetermined points along its length, all while the elastomeric member is maintained in its prestretched and tensioned condition by the rigidifying member.
