Title: Rotary disc filtration device with means to reduce axial forces
Inventor: ROLCHIGO PHILIP M
IPC: B01D33/17
Filed: 1999-02-18
Granted: 2001-09-27
Abstract: Rotary disc filtration devices and filtration processes using those devices are disclosed. The devices have one or more fluid filtration gaps into which fluid to be filtered into permeate and retentate is placed. Each fluid filtration gap is defined by a disc and a filter, one of which rotates with respect to the other. The filter is carried on a filter support member.

Patent AU-613825-B2 (AU)
Title: Special service call routing
Inventor: CATRON NANCY ANN
IPC: H04N1/32
Filed: 1990-02-08
Granted: 1991-08-08
Abstract: This invention relates to methods of establishing facsimile (fax) connections. If a call is originated from a fax source and the destination is a voice station, then the call will be automatically redirected to a fax machine designated to receive fax messages for the voice station. A fax call is detected by a class of service indication in a local switching office, or by having a number forwarded to a toll office from a local office by Automatic Number Identification (ANI) of the caller that is one of a list of fax numbers. When it is determined that a call is a fax call, a fax indicator is sent with Common Channel Signaling (CCS) messages for that call. If a call with a fax indicator is received in a destination switching office, then the destination office checks to see if the called number is a fax number; if not, translation is made to find the number of a fax station for serving fax calls to the called number, and the call is completed to that fax station. Advantageously, customers need not know a fax number to transmit a fax message to an intended recipient. Three types of problems arise in treating such calls, recognition that the call is a fax call, transmitting that recognition to a far end switch, and redirecting the call at the fax end switch. Among the other techniques used for recognition are a fax class mark in an originating message from an Integrated Services Digital Network (ISDN) line or a dialed prefix such as #, #3, or an alternative common carrier code (10XXX) from an ordinary line. The redirection includes automatic redirection to a store and forward system on busy or no answer, routing to one of a plurality of alternative destinations based on the day and time, screening junk fax, and lighting a fax message waiting lamp on the called (voice) destination. For international calls, a translation from voice to fax may be made at an egress gateway switch; the fax calls may also be automatically routed over low distortion international transmission facilites.

Title: Method and apparatus for the production of an injection- moulding
Inventor: EICHLSEDER MARTIN
IPC: B29C45/27
Filed: 1986-06-09
Granted: 1989-08-03
Abstract: An injection molded part of thermoplastic material, in particular an information carrier disk, is produced by cutting and removal of a sprue part from the injection molded part. The sprue removal leaves an opening in the injection molded part. In order to obtain a clean and smooth opening surface with a fit diameter that is as accurate as possible, the sprue part is axially offset relative to the injection molded part so that the integral connection between these two parts extends only over a part of the opening. The diameter of the axially projecting part is equal to or larger than the diameter of the opening and the rest of the opening being produced by injection molding. The dimensions are advantageously chosen so that a parting edge inclined at an angle of 45 DEG  to the plane of the opening is formed and that the injection molded part amounts to 70% and the part to be separated to 30% of the length of the opening. The injection molded length of the opening may also be variable. The sprue part may be cut from the injection molded part and removed, either in the closed or open state of the injection molding tool.
