Title: Point for an excavating tooth
Inventor: JONES LARREN F
IPC: E02F9/28
Filed: 1998-03-05
Granted: 1998-12-03
Abstract: An excavating tooth (10) for use on a wide variety of excavating equipment is comprised of a point (12), an adapter (14) and a sandwich lock pin (16). The pin includes a rigid casing (54) and a plurality of independently depressible protrusions (58, 59). One of the protrusions (58) resiliently engages a face (22) defined on the nose of the adapter to tighten the connection of the point on the nose. One other of the protrusions (59) extends into an opening (50) defined by the point to secure the lock pin to the point. With respect to an external locking tooth, the opening (50) defined in the point includes a pair of bosses (155a, 155b) which define a reduced portion of the opening. The reduced portion matingly receives and holds the ends of the rigid casing of the pin. The independent locking of the pin and the mating receipt of the casing in the point opening reduces the likelihood of pin loss due to overloading of the elastomeric material, wearing of the components or jacking forces.

Title: Ribozyme amplified diagnostics
Inventor: SHIH ANDY
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1993-12-03
Granted: 1997-02-06
Abstract: A system is described for the use of a ribozyme as a diagnostic tool for detecting the presence of a nucleic acid, protein, or other molecule, in which the formation of an active ribozyme and cleavage of an assayable marker is dependent on the presence or absence of the specific target molecule. The essential component is a ribozyme specifically but reversibly binding a selected target in combination with a labelled co-target, preferably immobilized on a support structure. When both the target and co-target are bound, the ribozyme cleaves the label from the co-target, which is then quantifiable. Since the ribozyme is reversibly bound by target and co-target, it can reassociate with additional co-target, cleaving more label, thereby amplifying the reaction signal. In one embodiment, the target is a nucleic acid hybridizing to complementary sequences that form part of the ribozyme; in a second embodiment, the target is a protein or other macromolecule which is bound by interactions with a portion of the ribozyme molecule. In another embodiment, a thermostable ribozyme is used, so that improperly bound ribozyme is destabilized and inactive at elevated temperatures. A method for isolating regulatable ribozymes is also disclosed. The regulatable ribozymes are useful in the method for detecting the presence of a specific macromolecule, or can be used in in vitro or in vivo methods for inactivation or activation of the cleavage of target RNA molecules. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Granted: 2002-01-24
Abstract: A method of gas liquefaction wherein the refrigeration to cool and liquefy an essentially water-free feed gas (100) is provided by a single recirculating mixed refrigerant cycle in which refrigeration is provided by the vaporization of two mixed refrigerant streams of different compositions at a lower and higher pressure levels respectively. A lower pressure level vaporizing refrigerant cools the feed gas stream (100) in a first cooling zone (106) and a higher pressure level vaporizing refrigerant further cools and condenses the cooled gas in a second cooling zone (124) to provide the final liquid product (136). The lower pressure level vaporizing refrigerant is provided by one or more liquids obtained by ambient cooling of compressed mixed refrigerant vapor (176). The vaporized lower pressure level refrigerant (114) can be returned to the refrigerant compressor at a temperature below ambient, without further warming, and this cool refrigerant (114) is compressed and combined with the vaporized higher pressure level refrigerant (176), which is returned at about ambient temperature. <IMAGE>

Title: Eddy producing guides for pipe elbow - employs two twisted strips spaced equally from centre line of elbow
IPC: F15D1/04
Filed: 1971-08-12
Abstract: A pipe elbow particularly for conveying hot gases has guide surfaces in the inlet area, to influence the flow by producing eddies. The guide surfaces are positioned symmetrically about the centre line of the elbow, and spaced from it. This produces oppositely rotating eddies, which extend from the wall to the centre line of the elbow. These guides may be two helically twisted strips (5, 6) or in an alternative design, each guide consists of two strips frmed into a cross shape (10, 11) and helically twisted. In another design, a triangular baffle plate is used instead of two guides. This plate is central in the tube, and angled.

Title: Eddy flow suppressed rotating wing aircraft - directs blade tip thrust nozzle outlet gases into eddy flow
IPC: B64C27/18
Filed: 1971-11-26
Abstract: The rotor blade for aircraft with rotating wings is driven by a reaction device at the blade tip, inclined so that the flow emerging is directed into the blade tip edge eddy flow for suppressing it. This arrangement also reduced aerodynamic noise. The flow (4) emerging from the thrust nozzle (3) is directed into the eddy flow (2), which it meets a certain distance behind the blade tip trailing edge. Into the thrust nozzle can also be fitted a swirler for imposing a helical flow of opposite rotation to that of the eddy flow for suppression purposes.

The operator may use the left hand to hold the clip whilst the right hand is used to operate the treatment process.
Patent DE-2808577-B2 (DE)
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 1978-02-28
Abstract: A synthetic-speech calculator includes a keyboard consisting of digit keys and function keys and one or more mode selectors, a desired number of registers for storing numerical information entered by the depression of selected ones of the digit keys, a read-only-memory for storing a large number of digital codes as sound quantizing information, counter means for specifying the address of the memory so as to take a specific digital code out of the memory, a digital-to-analog converter for converting the specific digital code taken out of the memory into an audible sound signal, and a loud speaker driven by the audible sound signal and producing an audible sound. The synthetic-speech calculator is adapted such that the audible sound signals are derived via the loud speaker by at least two different methods of sound generation. For example, when a voice start key is depressed, all digits of keyed information are produced in audible form with appropriate pauses. In addition, numerical information is produced by digit by digit in audible form each time a voice start key is depressed. Numerical information is produced in a 3-digit group mode, each of the 3-digit groups being audibly produced each time the voice start key is depressed. Finally, numerical information may be audibly produced in order of ascending significance relative to the least significant digit or in order of descending significance relative to the most significant digit. The mode selector directs the synthetic-speech calculator how to derive the audible sound signals via the loud speaker.
