Patent AU-1018392-A (AU)
Title: Manufacture of water-swellable hydrophilic articles and drug delivery devices
Inventor: KUZMA PETER
IPC: B29C41/50
Filed: 1992-01-14
Abstract: A method of preparing a hydrophilic plastic cartridge by centrifugally casting polymerizable hydrophilic material in a rotating polymerization tube whose longitudinal axis is maintained parallel to the ground. The speed of rotation causes radial outward displacement of the polymerizable material which upon assuming a predetermined shape within the rotating tube is then polymerized to the predetermined solid configuration. The resulting plastic cartridge is characterized by smooth, unscored internal and external cylindrical surfaces. The cartridges are used as a rate-limiting membrane in drug delivery devices. Sterilized kits containing a disposable needle/syringe or trocar-like instrument and the drug delivery device are used for subcutaneous implantation of the device in an animal body.

Title: Mixed resolution, n-dimensional object space
Inventor: ESTES MARK D
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1992-01-07
Abstract: A modular, polymorphic network interconnecting a plurality of electronically reconfigurable devices via a modular, polymorphic interconnect, to permit a fixed, physical configuration of operating hardware devices to take on a plurality of logically addressable configurations. The modular, polymorphic interconnect further permits allocation and deallocation of selected electronically reconfigurable devices for a particular logically addressable configuration. The modular, polymorphic interconnect additionally permits the logical topology of selected electronically reconfigurable devices to be configured as at least one mixed-radix, N-dimensional network. The logical topology of mixed-radix, N-dimensional networks can be dynamically changed under control for a new configuration of logical addresses for selected electronically reconfigurable devices. The modular, polymorphic interconnect also permits one or more electronically reconfigurable devices to be selected from at least one logically related set of electronically reconfigurable devices, making the resulting network system particularly well suited for a variety of purposes related to resource management.

Title: Packaging of smoking articles
Inventor: PARKER MICHAEL PATRICK
IPC: B60B37/10
Filed: 1998-12-02
Abstract: A rigid of smoking articles is made to have improved shelf life and to be resealable. A barrier material is sealed around the rigid pack. The rigid pack has a potential or actual access aperture extending from a top face into a major face. The barrier material has a line of severance or weakening defining a flap, which is in register with the potential or actual access aperture. Over the flap is a layer which overlaps it on each severable side with a portion having permanently-tacky adhesive. A non-adhered pull tab is preferably provided on the layer. To open the pack the user lifts the flap and if necessary the access aperture. After removal of a smoking article the gap in the barrier layer is reclosed and released by the repositioning of the adhesive layer, carrying with it the flap of barrier material. A machine for assembling the pack is also disclosed.

Patent AU-1380899-A (AU)
Title: Immortalized, homozygous stat1-deficient mammalian cell lines and their uses
Inventor: LEVY DAVID
IPC: C12N7/00
Filed: 1998-11-02
Abstract: The present invention is directed to immortalized STAT1-deficient mammalian cell lines. STAT1 is a signal transducer and activator of transcription that becomes phosphorylated when cells are treated with type I or type II interferons and leads to induction of specific gene expression, resulting in establishment of the antiviral state and the other known biological responses to interferons, including the inhibition of cell proliferation. Cells which lack this gene product are useful for producing high titers of viral stocks, for producing recombinant viral vectors, for testing samples, especially clinical samples for the presence of virus and for screening candidate compounds or drugs for anti-viral activity.

Patent AU-2065401-A (AU)
Title: Control arm for use in vehicle suspension system
Inventor: DZIADOSZ LAWRENCE M
IPC: B60G3/28
Filed: 2000-12-06
Abstract: A control arm used as a suspension link within a vehicle suspension system has two similar members. Each member has a substantially W shaped cross section and circular endplates. The endplates are coupled together with bushings that include a compressible member. During normal loading, this bushing arrangement keeps the two members spaced apart. This allows each member to bend and flex when subjected to longitudinal forces. As transverse loading occurs, the two members are caused to move together, and eventually abut one another. This abutment greatly increases the overall strength of the control arm, allowing it to withstand severe transverse forces without buckling.
