Title: Improvements in or relating to method of cracking a batch of heavy hydrocarbons into lighter hydrocarbons and devices for carrying out this method
Inventor: AMOUROUX JACQUES
IPC: C10G47/30
Filed: 1989-11-23
Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for cracking heavy hydrocarbons into lighter hydrocarbons, and to a device for carrying out this process. 
<??>This process consists in using a bed of particles, advantageously catalytic particles, in a reaction chamber, introducing a gas for the fluidisation of the bed in accordance with a predetermined flow rate so as to create a spurting fluidised bed and introducing a plasma jet, preferably containing argon, into the chamber, the jet being directed towards a defined zone of the bed so as to create a reaction space having at least two reaction zones at different temperatures, the zone at the higher temperature being that into which the plasma jet is directed, introducing the heavy hydrocarbons into the reaction zone at lower temperature and preferably introducing into the zone at higher temperature one or more light alkanes so as to bring about the cracking of the heavy hydrocarbons in the fluidised bed, the latter effecting a quenching of the reaction mixture and catalysing the cracking. The process furthermore consists in discharging the products obtained downstream from the zone at lower temperature. 
<??>The invention is particularly applicable in the chemical and energy-generating industries.

IPC: H02K29/00
Filed: 1993-07-06
Abstract: The electric motor-wheel has an entry (40) to receive current at terminals (15) and three outputs (42) for three alternate phase currents. The currents may be polyphase. A microprocessor (44) has branches (41a,41b,41c) to control the operation and is external to the motor-wheel. A stator feeds the electric current. The stator (6) is in the shape of a cross with three arms for the phase currents and a fourth arm (13). A condenser (14) distributes to the three condensers on the arms and the microprocessor is connected to the fourth arm. The motor-wheel has two distribution output buses and a circular supply (48) connected to the arms for a high-voltage current. A rotor coaxial with and rotatably mounted about the stator has a conversion system for converting an electric input current into a variable alternating electric current and also has power electronics in the hollow portion with input terminals to receive the electric current and output terminals to generate the variable alternating electric current. The variable alternating current is supplied to the stator windings.

Date Nov. 14, 1996An isolating circuit for isolating a telephone set from an exchange passes a D.C. feed current but prevents A.C. currents over the range of operating frequencies of the equipment, typically about 300 Hz to 4 KHz. The circuit comprises a T-filter having two resistive branches arranged between the source and the load, and a capacitive branch arranged between the resistive branches and earth. The resistive branches each include a resistive element having an amplifier (A1, A2) in parallel with a resistor (R1, R4). The effective resistance of the resistive branches is dependent on the gain of the amplifier, which is isolated from D.C. by capacitors (C1, C2, C3, C4). The impedance of the capacitive branch is chosen so as to be lower than that of the resistive branches over the frequency range of interest thus isolating the two resistive branches from one another at those frequencies.

Title: Plastic closure with improved seal
Inventor: ZUMBUHL BRUNO
IPC: B65D41/34
Filed: 1990-05-09
Abstract: A plastic closure for a container, such as a bottle having an externally threaded neck, has a top wall, an internally threaded sidewall, and a seal comprising outer and inner concentric sealing members that extend downwardly from an inner surface of the top wall. The outer sealing member extends downwardly farther than the inner sealing member and is substantially thicker than the inner sealing member. The outer sealing member is disposed to engage an outer corner of the rim of the neck of the bottle when the closure is threaded onto the bottle, and the inner sealing member is disposed to engage the top of the rim after engagement of the corner with the outer sealing member. The outer sealing member deflects outward slightly, and the inner sealing member deflects upwardly and inwardly. Movement of the top wall of the closure toward the rim is limited by a shoulder between the sealing members, so that when the closure is fully threaded onto the bottle, the inner sealing member is spaced from the inner surface of the top wall of the closure.

Title: Expression of recombinant mature lysostaphin
Inventor: KHATRI GHAN SHYAM
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1999-10-19
Abstract: A portion of the lysostaphin gene of Staphylococcus simulans has been cloned and overexpressed in the cytoplasm of E. coli to yield lysostaphin, in the absence of preprolysostaphin and prolysostaphin, under the transcriptional control of an IPTG-inducible promoter and a ribosome binding site. IPTG induction of the transformed host cells produces intracellular, soluble, mature lysostaphin (27 kDa), in the complete absence of preprolysostaphin and prolysostaphin. The mature lysostaphin so formed dose not require post-translational modification. The mature lysostaphin so formed can be used treat and prevent staphylococcal infections.

Title: Downhole packer
Inventor: ARIZMENDI NAPOLEON
IPC: E21B33/128
Filed: 1998-02-03
Abstract: A packer for sealing a space downhole in a well. The packer includes a deformable sheath having a body and first and second ends for defining an interior volume proximate to a tool surface. A material located within the interior volume is deformable, when the sheath second end is moved toward the sheath first end, to move the deformable sheath into the downhole space. The sheath can function as a sealing element or a backup element, and can be applied to different structures and tool configurations downhole in a wellbore. For example, the packer can be applied to plugs, to through tubing mandrals, and to other well tools in open hole or in cased wellbore configurations. The packer resists damage to the seal elements, provides confirmation of the packer setting force, and is less expensive than conventional packer designs.

Patent AU-6389290-A (AU)
Title: Edible spread
IPC: A01J17/00
Filed: 1990-10-09
Abstract: Edible spreads are prone to microbiological spoilage by a number of organisms, including molds and bacteria as well as by physical changes occurring on storage. While the growth of these organisms and consequently the onset of spoilage can be inhibited by the use of preservatives, some consumers find preservatives unacceptable. We have determined that in edible fat products wherein the fat phase comprise a homogeneous dispersion of fine crystals and in which the fat phase is essentially free of crystalline aggregates spoilage is greatly reduced. Anhydrous products can be produced by melting the fat, substantially in the absence of an aqueous medium, cooling the melted fat to a temperature at which partial crystallization occurs, homogenising the partially crystallised fat, and, cooling the homogenised fat to further crystallise the fat. By means of a modified process it is possible to produce comprising 50-60% fat phase, 40-50% water phase, 0.1-1% lecithin, 0.01-1% salt, being essentially free of monoglycerides, proteins and sorbate salts, which are stable on storage.
