Abstract: The core structure of pentaerythritol has been used as a replacement for one or both sugars in lipid A, leading to the generation of a series of lipid A analogs. These lipid A analogs may further differ from lipid A with respect to, e.g., the number, nature and location of negatively charged groups, and the number, nature and location of the lipid chains. The lipid A analogs may be lipid A agonists useful as immunostimulatory agents, or lipid A antagonists useful in the treatment of septic shock. In a like manner, a residue of pentaerythritylamine may be used as a replacement for an amino sugar residue in a carbohydrate ligand having a biological activity of interest, generating a series of ligand analogs. These are useful, e.g., as haptens, inhibitors of bacterial-host cell adhesion, etc.

Abstract: IN A SYSTEM FOR THE SORTING OF OBJECTS (4), SUCH AS PACKAGES IN THE FORM OF BOTTLES OF GLASS OF PLASTICS, CANS OF ALUMINIUM, IRON OR PLASTICS, THE OBJECTS, AFTER HAVING BEEN IDENTIFIED IN AN IDENTIFICATION APPARATUS, ARE CONVEYED TO A SORTING SYSTEM, WHICH CONSISTS OF A SYMMETRICAL HOUSING HAVING A CONVEYOR AT THE TOP, WHICH MAY BE FORMED BY TWO ANNULAR BELTS (2, 3) WHICH EXTEND IN PARALLEL AND WHICH CAN CONVEY THE IDENTIFIED OBJECTS. THE HOUSING IS FORMED AS A V BETWEEN THE ANNULAR BELTS. THE ANNULAR BELTS (2, 3) MAY BE ARRANGED IN A REPLACEABLE GUIDE PLATE (7, 7A). GAPS ARE PROVIDED LONGITUDINALLY OF THE HOUSING BETWEEN THE ANNULAR BELTS THROUGH WHICH EJECTORS (8) WITH EJECTION PARTS (15, 16) MAY BE CAUSED TO EJECT OBJECTS BY MEANS OF ACTUATORS WHICH HAVE BEEN IDENTIFIED PREVIOUSLY IN THE IDENTIFICATION APPARATUS. THE EJECTORS ARE GIVEN AN OBLIQUE MOVEMENT SO THAT ONE END OF THE OBJECTS IS SUBJECTED TO A GREATER FORCE. WHEN AN OBJECT HAS BEEN EJECTED, THE EJECTOR RETURNS TO THE GAP BY MEANS OF ITS OWN WEIGHT. ALL ACTUATORS AND THEIR WIRING ARE CONCEALED IN THE HOUSING. THIS PROVIDES A VERY SAFE SYSTEM WHERE THE OPERATORS CANNOT BE INJURED, SINCE THERE IS NO APPLICATION OF MECHANICAL FORCES OUTSIDE THE HOUSING. FURTHER, THE SYSTEM IS HYGIENIC AND EASY TO CLEAN BECAUSE OF THE UPPER V-SHAPE OF THE HOUSING, WHICH SERVES AS A COLLECTION CHUTE FOR THE EXCESS CONTENTS OF PACKAGES AND AS A COLLECTION PLACE e.g. FOR BROKEN BOTTLES.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for handling pallets, such as for inspection and sorting, are disclosed. In a disclosed embodiment, an up-ender includes a support frame, a pallet-tilting mechanism coupled in a pivotal manner to the frame, and first and second generally upright pusher arms coupled to the frame. The pallet-tilting mechanism is pivotable between an up position and a down position, such that when the pallet-tilting mechanism is in the up position, an upright stack of pallets can be loaded onto the pallet-tilting mechanism and when pivoted to the down position, the stack is rotated about 90° so that the pallets become generally vertically oriented. The pallet-tilting mechanism also is adapted to displace the stack of vertically oriented pallets along a support surface. The pusher arms are positioned to receive the stack of pallets from the pallet-tilting mechanism and automatically index the pallets in the stack along the support surface.

Abstract: A tubular sleeve ( 40 ) comprises an anterior portion ( 16 ) of inextensible material that comes to bear against the tibial ridge, and a posterior portion ( 18 ) of extensible material covering the region to be compressed. These two portions are connected together along two connection generator lines ( 20 ). Inflatable balloons ( 22 ) are disposed on the inside face of the anterior portion, being interposed between the inextensible material and the tibial crest. Means ( 24, 26, 28 ) are provided for inflating each of the balloons differently to a respective given pressure so as to apply deformation to the anterior portion of the sleeve that is suitable for inducing a traction force that is exerted on the extensible posterior portion; this force is distributed regularly along the generator lines and acts perpendicularly thereto, and consequently leads to compression action on the compressible region of the limb.

Abstract: Network switching and/or routing devices can use switching fabrics that gather information about output port buffer status and distribute that information to various line cards for use in data frame congestion avoidance. The switching fabric can gather output buffer status information for all output ports and distribute that information to each line card in an efficient, in-band manner. Individual line cards can use the information to determine from which line card virtual output queue to dequeue data frames destined for the switching fabric. Line cards can also gather output buffer status information associated with line card queues used for receiving data from the switching fabric. Such data is used in a manner similar to the output buffer data from the switching fabric.
