Patent AU-2012231269-A1 (AU)
Title: Bulk material conveyor belt scraper having a dust skirt and method of using the same
Inventor: SWINDERMAN ROBERT TODD
IPC: B65G45/12
Filed: 2012-03-16
Abstract: An improved bulk material conveyor belt scraper comprises a skirt that shields mounting surfaces from the bulk material dust. By shielding the mounting surfaces from bulk material dust, such dust does not interfere with the replacement of the scraper blade. The belt scraper also comprises an improved securing mechanism for attaching belt scrapers to belt scraper mounts. The improved securing mechanism comprises pegs that have an elongate transverse cross-section that more evenly distributes bearing loads between the belt scrapers and their respective mounts. This eliminates local yielding that can cause belt scrapers to become loose over time.

Title: Method for phytoremediation of heavy metal contaminated sites
Inventor: ORTIZ CLAUDIA
IPC: B09C1/10
Filed: 2012-04-13
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recovering substrates, mainly mine tailings, using plant species endemic to the location of the substrate to be treated. The substrate recovery method essentially comprises the following steps consisting in: selecting the endemic plant species capable of growing in substrates containing heavy metals; performing a tolerance test on said plant species, finishing with a new selection of the most tolerant species; vegetatively propagating the selected endemic plant species; acclimating the vegetatively propagated species and installing the plant species in the soil of the substrate to be treated. The present method is particularly suitable for use in substrates obtained from tailings, i.e., those containing a high concentration of metals.

Title: Surgical instrument insert and surgical instrument system
Inventor: GOLDSMITH MARK
IPC: A61B18/14
Filed: 2012-04-19
Abstract: A retaining member for a surgical instrument insert is described. The instrument insert includes a retaining member which is free to move along the shaft before the insert is attached to the handle. The retaining member comprises a resilient member integrally formed with the retaining member. The resilient member can engage the surgical instrument insert shaft and act to prevent the retaining member falling off before the insert is attached to the handle. Because the resilient member is integrally formed the cost of manufacture is reduced.In another embodiment, a surgical instrument insert is provided wherein a proximal portion of the outer shaft is manufactured from an insulating material. The insulating material can be cheaper than the aluminium conventionally used. As a further advantage this also reduces the risk of electric shock and burns when used in an electrically live environment.
