Title: Low level load platform delivery vehicle
Inventor: THOMSON GEORGE HAMILTON
IPC: B60K17/04
Filed: 1986-07-14
Abstract: A vehicle 1 has a front cap section 2 and a rear section 3, having a loading area 4. The front section 2 has a chassis 6 on which is mounted an engine 7, a gearbox 8, a transfer box 9 and an axle 10 having a differential unit 11 and a pair of steerable roadwheels 12. The engine 7 is mounted back to front behind the axle 10 and drives forward to the gearbox 8 which is positioned over the axle 10. The engine 7 and gearbox 8 are positioned so as not to cause wheel clearance problems when turning. The gearbox 8 drives forward to the transfer box 9 via a coupling 8a. The trnasfer box 9 drops and reverses the drive to drive rearwardly via a drive shaft assembly 9a to the differential unit 11. As all the drive and steering apparatus is contained within the front section 2 it is self-contained and there is no rearwardly extending driveshaft as in conventional vehicles. The load area 4 can thus be arranged at a conveniently low level of some twenty inches above ground level.

Title: Improved thin-well microplate and methods of making same
Inventor: TURNER BRUCE R
IPC: B01J19/00
Filed: 2000-07-20
Abstract: A thin-well microplate and methods of manufacturing same are provided, wherein the thin-well microplate is conducive for use with automated equipment, such as robotic handling equipment, and in high temperature procedures, such as thermal cycling. The thin-well microplate is constructed of two components including a skirt and frame portion and a well and deck portion with a plurality of sample wells; both portions being joined to form a unitary microplate. Each of the skirt and frame and well and deck portions is constructed of a suitable material that imparts a specific combination of physical and material properties to the thin-well microplate. The skirt and frame portion and the well and deck portion are each constructed of the material that will allow each portion to withstand high temperature conditions and use of automated equipment, while retaining the physical characteristics each portion requires for optimal performance of the thin-well microplate. Such physical characteristics include, although not limited to, rigidity of the skirt and frame portion and thin-walled sample wells of the well and deck portion to permit optimal thermal transfer and biocompatibility. Methods of construction include forming the thin-well microplate as a unitary plate in a single, two-step process, wherein the skirt and frame portion is constructed of a suitable first material in a first step and the deck and frame portion is formed integral with the skirt and frame portion in a second step of a suitable second material. The unitary thin-well microplate plate is thereby formed of two materials for the required specific combination of physical and material properties. Another method of construction includes forming the unitary thin-well microplate in two separate manufacturing processes, wherein the skirt and frame portion is constructed of the first material in a first process and the deck and well portion constructed of the second material in a second process, and the skirt and frame portion and the well and deck portion are, thereafter, permanently joined by an adhesive system to form the unitary plate of the invention.

Abstract: The invention relates to a messaging centre management method for a cellular radio messaging system, in which a subscriber to whom a connection request is sent is liable to be temporarily unavailable. According to the invention, the said method comprises the following steps:     - the subscriber (1) is detected as being temporarily unavailable; - the said connection request is sent back to the said messaging centre (2); - the said messaging centre (2) stores a message intended to be delivered later to the temporarily unavailable subscriber (1); - the said messaging centre (2) automatically calls the said subscriber (1) back, according to a configurable recall strategy, so as to deliver the said stored message to the subscriber (1).   Moreover, the said step of storing a message is accompanied by a step of sending a short message to the temporarily unavailable subscriber (1) via a short-message service. Finally, the said configurable recall strategy consists in making an instantaneous attempt to call the subscriber (1) back on receiving a subsequent acknowledgement of reception of the short message, the said subsequent reception acknowledgement indicating that the said subscriber (1) is available.   <IMAGE>
