Patent AU-708101-B2 (AU)
Title: Process of making organic fibers
Inventor: PELLEGRIN MICHAEL T
IPC: D01D5/08
Filed: 1997-07-09
Granted: 1999-07-29
Abstract: A method for fiberizing organic material includes rotating a spinner having a bottom wall and a peripheral wall that extends upwardly from the bottom wall and terminates in an upper end, wherein the spinner has a cavity defined by the bottom wall, the peripheral wall and a plane extending through the upper end of the peripheral wall generally parallel to the bottom wall. The method further includes creating turbulence within the spinner cavity, supplying molten organic material to a delivery tube wherein the delivery tube terminates at a point located outside of the spinner cavity, discharging molten organic material from the delivery tube with enough momentum to overcome the turbulence and reach a predetermined location in the spinner cavity, and centrifuging fibers from the molten organic material.
Patent AU-628824-B2 (AU)
Title: Water pillow
Inventor: BARD MAURICE R
IPC: A47C27/18
Filed: 1989-05-05
Granted: 1992-09-24
Abstract: A pillow casing according to the present invention comprises a top surface and a connected bottom surface which cooperate to define an enclosure for receiving a compressible filler therein. The pillow casing further includes a thin envelope layer intermediate the surfaces and attached to the bottom surface. The envelope layer is adapted to sealably receive a fluid-like material therein to form a thin fluid-like layer remote and isolated from the top surface when the compressible filler is received in the enclosure. The filler, when received in the enclosure, is supported by the envelope layer to effectively float the received compressible filler on the fluid-like material received in the envelope. The pillow casing is particularly adapted for receiving a conventional pillow as the compressible filler material therein. Thus, the pillow casing can cooperate with a conventional pillow to substantially alter the pillow characteristics of the combination by floating the pillow on a thin layer of fluid. The invention is also directed to a complete pillow, in which case a compressible filler material is inserted into the pillow casing at the time of manufacture.

Title: Two-stage planification method and device for liquids laden with solid materials
Inventor: CONDOLIOS ELIE
IPC: C02F1/52
Filed: 1985-07-31
Granted: 1988-04-28
Abstract: A cloudy liquid to be clarified is inserted, after twice receiving flocculation additive, into the bottom of a belt of sludge (4a) in a clarification chamber (4) via a plurality of injectors (22) distributed over the area of said chamber. Uniform distribution of overall flow between these injectors is ensured by internal head loss. The clarified liquid is removed via an upper overflow (4b). Each injector is constituted by a flat cyclone and forms a jet which is highly diverting from its vertical axis in such a manner that the injected flowrate spreads out over an expansion zone belonging to said injector and meeting the expansion zones of adjacent injectors. Further, these jets set up swirling motion which prevents the formation of a layer of sludge having insufficient permeability. The sludge formed in the chamber (4) is directed via a central well (7) towards a secondary clarification sludge (3) situated beneath said chamber and supplying both clarified liquid and dense sludge.

Title: Liver reserve cells
Inventor: NAUGHTON BRIAN A
IPC: A61K35/407
Filed: 1993-10-08
Granted: 1998-04-09
Abstract: The present invention relates to liver reserve or progenitor cells. In particular, it relates to the isolation, characterization, culturing, and uses of liver reserve cells. Liver reserve cells isolated by density gradient centrifugation can be distinguished from other liver parenchymal cells by their morphology, staining characteristics, high proliferative activity and ability to differentiate in vitro. In long-term cultures described herein, these cells expand in numbers and differentiate into morphologically mature liver parenchymal cells, capable of mediating liver-specific functions. Therefore, isolated liver reserve cells may have a wide range of applications, including, but not limited to, their uses as vehicles of exogenous genes in gene therapy, and/or to replace and reconstitute a destroyed, infected, or genetically deficient mammalian liver by transplantation.

Granted: 1989-02-16
Abstract: Microprocessor-based digital solid-state trip unit (48) generating an inverse time long delay and/or short delay trip by digital simulation of the heating and cooling of a bimetallic strip. A digital value (TETALR), stored in a RAM memory simulates the temperature of the bimetallic strip, this value being incremented when the current exceeds a preset pick-up (ILR) or on the contrary decremented if the current is lower than this pick-up (ILR). Tripping is caused when the stored value (TETALR) exceeds a maximum pick-up (TETAMAX). The microprocessor (48) computes the incrementation factor (DTETAE) in terms of the square of the current.

Filed: 1990-11-06
Granted: 1993-07-08
Abstract: In a servo tracking method and apparatus, a servo head (S) of a helical scan recorder (30) endeavors to travel equidistant between two servo signal-bearing stripes recorded on the tape (32). The recorder (30) determines a reference-crossing time at which the servo head (S) begins to cross a horizontal reference line (606) drawn with respect to the beginning of a stripe on the tape (32). The servo head (S) samples the amplitude of a servo signal provided on the tape (32) at a plurality of predetermined times after the reference-crossing time. A servo tracking circuit (175) uses the amplitude of the servo signal at the predetermined sampling times to determine how to adjust the position of said head (S) relative to the pitch of said stripe.
