Title: Implantable and refillable biohybrid artificial pancreas
Inventor: BAE YOU HAN
IPC: B01D61/00
Filed: 1993-09-28
Abstract: An artificial pancreas system which minimizes the volume of the artificial pancreas by not encapsulating each islet is taught wherein the islets are separated and held within a polymeric matrix which is soluble in an aqueous solution below body temperature but insoluble in aqueous solutions at or above body temperature. The polymer-islet mixture is contained in a pouch having access means such as entry and exit ports. The solubility makes it possible to replace the contents of the pouch by solubilizing the matrix simply by lowering the temperature below the LCST. The pouch is constructed of a biocompatible material permeable to insulin and other substances of similar or lesser molecular weight but is impermeable to cellular and humoral components of the body immune system. The islet-polymer matrix can be functionalized to stimulate insulin secretion from the islets using insulinotropic agents such as sulfonylurea. Also, polymeric microparticles which release bioactive agents which either promote vascularization at the pouch membrane outer surface or inhibit macrophage activity can be added to the polymer matrix.

Patent AU-5871399-A (AU)
Title: Improved ball valve
Inventor: EDWARDS JEFFREY CHARLES
IPC: F16K5/06
Filed: 1999-09-15
Abstract: A ball valve (10) is described which has a ball valve retaining mechanism which, when subject to very slight movement, allows a ball element (20) to be unloaded off a valve seat (48) during rotation, but remain in contact with the valve seat (48) so as to prevent debris ingress between the ball and the valve seat, and to instantaneously reload onto the valve seat upon the event of closure. This instantaneous and automatic redirection of the reaction load path at the occurrence of closure provides an effective seal against high pressure aggressive fluids to prevent fluid escaping beyond the valve components whilst, at the same time, allowing effective rotational movement of the valve to occur without providing rotational reliability. <??>This solution allows conflicting load paths through the valve to be resolved, namely through the trunnion during rotation and through the valve seat during sealing. <IMAGE>

Title: Methods and apparatus for detecting medical conditions of the heart
Inventor: IDEKER RAYMOND E
IPC: A61N1/37
Filed: 1999-09-15
Abstract: An implantable system for detecting electrical activity from a patient's heart comprises a first sensing electrode configured for positioning through the coronary sinus ostium and within a vein on the left surface of the left ventricle of the heart for sensing electrical activity from the heart, and a detector operatively associated with the first sensing electrode for determining (e.g., diagnosing or prognosing) a medical condition of the heart with the sensed electrical activity. Typically the system further comprises a second sensing electrode configured for positioning in the right ventricle of the heart, where the detector is operatively associated with both the first sensing electrode and the second sensing electrode. The second sensing electrode may be positioned in other locations as well, such as also within a vein on the left surface of the left ventricle of the heart (although spaced apart from the first sensing electrode), in the right atrium, in the superior vena cava, etc. Finally, a third sensing electrode may also be included, with the third electrode positioned in any of the foregoing locations (again, spaced apart from the first and second electrodes), with the detector operatively associated with all of the first, second, and third sensing electrodes. Determination of a medical condition may be carried out by any suitable means, such as by detecting premature beats in the heart. The method is particularly useful for identifying the chamber of premature beat origin.

Title: Airbag fabric possessing a very low cover factor
Inventor: KESHAVARAJ RAMESH
IPC: A47L15/20
Filed: 2000-09-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to an airbag fabric which is woven in such a manner as to possess a cover factor of less than about 1900 but which simultaneously, through the presence of a film (laminate) or coating, possesses an extremely low air permeability. The utilization of such a loosely constructed fabric within airbag cushions has heretofore not been possible, even with the application of standard airbag coatings (such as silicones) over the fabric surface since such coatings with not easily remain in contact over the loosely constructed fabric surface (i.e., the coating would leak through the fabric). The coupling of a low cover factor fabric with a laminate film (or with a coating wherein the cover factor is at least 1600), however, solves such a problem and permits the utilization of inexpensively produced woven fabrics within airbag applications.

Title: Vegetable oil extraction process
Inventor: STROP HANS R
IPC: A23D7/00
Filed: 1987-04-21
Abstract: A vegetable oil process and assembly is disclosed for extracting oil from an oil bearing material such as soybean, corn and the like. The process comprises adding at least one reagent and an oil of preferably the same type as will be extracted from the oil bearing material to the oil bearing material to form a slurry mixture. The slurry is heated at a preselected temperature for a preselected period of time preferably under a partial vacuum. This processing reduces the phospholipid and trace metal content in the oil extracted from the oil bearing material. The oil product produced is light in color, shows no turbidity and exhibits a minimal amount of phosphorus, calcium, magnesium and iron. The oil is ready for physical refining.

Title: Method for eliminating interference in an ofdm radio receiver
Inventor: OKSANEN LAURI
IPC: H04B7/005
Filed: 1998-06-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for eliminating interference in an OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) radio receiver In the method, coded signals that are transmitted on subcarriers are received, reliability information generated for the signals being used in their soft decoding In accordance with the invention, the signal-to-interference ration of the subcarrier is used as the reliability information, the signal-to-interference ratio being defined by dividing the amplitude of the received signal by the interference amplitude. The interference amplitude is generated by calculating the deviation of the amplitudes of a set of selected signals from the average amplitude level of the set of signals. The average amplitude level of the set of signals is the mean value, median or some other statistical quantity indicative of the average level of the amplitudes of the set of signals. The deviation from the average amplitude level of the set of signals is the standard deviation, variance or some other statistical deviation-indicating quality of the set of signals. The amplitudes of the set of signals are selected from successive symbols in the time domain and/or from adjacent subcarriers in the frequency domain. The invention also relates to an OFDM radio receiver using the method.

Title: Continuous solvent pulping and washing processes and apparatus
Inventor: GREENWOOD BRIAN F
IPC: D21C1/02
Filed: 1994-12-14
Abstract: A continuous solvent pulping process is practiced with oxygen free gas (e.g. nitrogen) purges of all major treatment vessels (23, 24, 85, 103, 105) during the time when the process is arrested or terminated. The wood chips or other cellulosic fibrous material to be pulped is steamed in a first horizontal steaming zone (23) at a pressure of about 10-20 psi, and then in a second horizontal steaming zone (24) at a pressure of about 20-75 psi. Gases, including vaporized solvent (e.g. ethanol or other alcohol) are vented (via 30, 36) from the steaming zones, and solvent is added (at 39) to the steamed material prior to feeding to a high pressure feeder (11) . The high pressure feeder introduces the material into the top of a single digesting vessel (12), liquid and chips being separated at the top of the digester vessel without mechanical means that could cause a spark. Lignin containing liquid is withdrawn from a central portion (14) of the digester and passed through flash tanks (51-53) and ultimately for lignin and alcohol recovery. Washing -- which also may be practiced using solvent pulp from a batch system -- is accomplished by first continuously passing the pulp to a pressure diffuser (85), then to a first multi stage drum displacer washer (103), and then to a second multi stage drum displacer washer (105). <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>
