Title: Materiau osseux de substitution inorganique resorbable et procede permettant de le produire
Inventor: GERBER THOMAS
IPC: A61L27/12
Filed: 2001-01-25
Granted: 2009-08-11
Abstract: L'invention concerne un matériau de substitution osseuse inorganique résorbable à base de phosphates de calcium et un procédé permettant de le produire. Ce matériau se caractérise en ce qu'il présente une structure cristalline poreuse, c.-à-d. que les cristaux ne sont pas assemblés de manière dense en un corps solide (céramique), mais sont interconnectés par l'intermédiaire de quelques groupes de molécules. Le volume qui est absorbé par le collagène dans l'os naturel se présente, dans le matériau, sous forme de pores à effet d'interconnexion, de l'ordre du nanomètre. Une deuxième dimension de pores, également à effet d'interconnexion, de l'ordre de quelque micromètres, permet à des fibres de collagène de croître lors de la formation tissulaire. Ces fibres constituent des générateurs de germination pour la biominéralisation en cours (formation des apatites biologiques propres au corps). Ce matériau contient une troisième catégorie de pores à effet d'interconnexion, correspondant au tissu spongieux et se situant par conséquent dans une plage allant d'environ 100 à 1.000  mu m et permettant de fait aux vaisseaux sanguins de se développer à l'intérieur, de sorte que la résorption et la régénération osseuse n'interviennent plus uniquement de par la fonction de l'os sain, mais découlent également de l'aspect défectueux dans son ensemble. La surface intérieure élevée du matériau lui permet de fixer des facteurs de croissance propres au corps ou des facteurs de croissance de synthèse. L'invention concerne en outre un procédé permettant de produire un matériau de ce type, qui se caractérise en ce qu'une suspension très visqueuse d'un sol d'un ou de plusieurs oxydes des éléments X (X = La, Ca, Mg, P, Si, Ti, Zr) est mélangée avec une poudre cristalline, puis est comprimée à travers un ajutage ou un système d'ajutages et est ensuite mise sous une quelconque forme, de manière que le tassement des filaments provenant de la suspension très visqueuse dont la viscosité empêche le matériau de couler, induise une structure à pores ouverts d'une dimension relevant du diamètre des filaments.

Title: Wood accelerating drying process based on its rheological properties
Inventor: ROMEIRO DE AGUIAR OSMAR JOSE
IPC: B27K5/00
Filed: 2001-12-20
Granted: 2008-03-11
Abstract: The objective of the present invention is an accelerated drying process for wood, capable of use with all species and of maintaining the quality of the dried wood intact, in which the temperature of the system is kept within the glass transition temperature range, for an appropriate period so as to attain the intended humidity ratio of the wood. It relates to an accelerated drying process for wood based on the rheological properties (hygro- thermalviscoelastic) of the latter, where the glass transition temperature of lignin is used as a relaxant or neutralization agent for the residual growth stress of trees, as well as those from the drying process. The process is controlled by monitoring the temperatures of the wood through the use of thermocouples placed along the length of the pieces. Furthermore, the use of the process of the present invention provides a significant reduction in the drying time and a reduction of the defects because molecular fluidity is maintained.

Title: Regeneration device of exhaust gas purification filter and filter regeneration method
Inventor: KOJIMA MASAAKI
IPC: F01N13/04
Filed: 2001-03-14
Granted: 2005-10-04
Abstract: A regeneration device of an exhaust gas purification filter that reduces the regeneration time of the filter. The regeneration device includes a plurality of first temperature detectors (26a, 26b) arranged in casings to detect the temperature in each casing and a second temperature detector (26a, 26b) for detecting the temperature of the exhaust gas. A processor (30) is connected to the first temperature detectors and the second temperature detector. The processor compares the temperature of the exhaust gas and the temperature of at least one of the casings, opens the associated switch valve based on the comparison result, and preheats at least one of the filters with the exhaust gas. The heat of the exhaust gas suddenly increases the temperature of the filter from the initial temperature and reduces the filter regeneration time.

Abstract: A method and system provides a loyalty program in conjunction with an online promotions system wherein users are presented with promotions at least some of which include rewards associated with certain user actions. Where a user selects and downloads a promotion (204), the loyalty system updates (206) the user loyalty account to give credit for a first reward associated with the selected promotion. Upon the user taking a further action (208) on the promotion, such as by purchasing the good or service associated with the promotion, the loyalty system provides the user with a second loyalty reward and updates (210) the user loyalty account to reflect a credit for the second reward. The system may operate in conjunction with a point-of-sale system, wherein the second reward is instantaneously updated and presented to the user. The online promotions system presents the user with a status of current loyalty rewards received and pending loyalty rewards which could be received upon the user taking further action.
