Title: A dosage unit for dosing a number of measured quantities of a liquid, such as an insulin preparation, from a cartridge
Inventor: HOLM NIELS ERIK
IPC: A61M5/24
Filed: 1989-02-08
Abstract: A dosage unit for dosing a number of measured quantities of a liquid, such as an insulin preparation, from a separate cartridge (2), where the dosage unit comprises a cylindrical casing for the cartridge (2). At the distal end the casing (1) is provided with means for fastening a liquid outlet needle (5). The dosage unit comprises furthermore a piston rod (8) activating a piston (4) in the cartridge (2). An adjustment means (18) is pivotally mounted on the casing and determines by way of adjustment the length of the stroke of the piston rod. A ratchet device (10, 11) is situated between the casing (1) and the piston rod (8), said ratchet device allowing displacement of said piston rod (8) towards the distal end of the casing (1) and preventing a displacement thereof in the opposite direction. The adjustment means (18) is non-displaceably mounted on the casing (1), and the piston rod (8) is provided with an external thread (12) and prevented from rotating relative to the casing (1). A nut means (13) is provided between the piston rod (8) and the adjustment means (18) said nut means engaging by way of an internal thread the thread (12) of the piston rod (8) and on the outside engaging in an axially displaceable manner the adjustment means (18). A rotation of the adjustment means (18) involves a rotation of the nut means (13) relative to the piston rod and consequently a displacement of an indicator (21) fixedly connected to the nut means (13) and protruding from the end of the adjustment means (18). The indicator (21) is provided with a measuring scale indicating the extent of its axial displacement relative to the adjustment means and consequently the desired dosing quantity, whereby the dosing is carried out by pressing the piston rod (8) by way of the indicator (21) while pressing it back towards the interior of the adjustment means (18)

Title: Video display systems
Inventor: CLINCH NOAH
IPC: H04N1/195
Filed: 1997-07-09
Abstract: A method for transmission of a sequence of high quality images for display on a visual display unit is described. It has particular application in the field of telepathology, where magnified images obtained by scanning a medical specimen on the stage of an optical microscope are transmitted from a local pathologist to a remote consultant for diagnosis. The method consists of the steps of advancing the field of view of the camera in discrete steps across the object being viewed to capture a sequence of contiguous images, temporarily storing a digital representation of a first of the images in a first buffer store and a digital representation of at least part of the next succeeding image in a second buffer store, controlling the data in the two buffers stores such that the data follows the leading edge of the advancing viewpoint and data in the first buffer store representing a trailing incremental strip of the first stored image is progressively discarded while data in the second buffer store representing a trailing incremental strip of the next contiguous image is transferred to a location in the first buffer store occupied by the data representing a leading incremental strip of the first stored image.

Title: Recombinant flagellin vaccines
Inventor: MARJARIAN WILLIAM ROBERT
IPC: A61P31/04
Filed: 1989-05-05
Abstract: The present invention is directed to recombinant genes and their encoded proteins which are recombinant flagellin fusion proteins. Such fusion proteins comprise amino acid sequences specifying an epitope encoded by a flagellin structural gene and an epitope of a heterologous organism which is immunogenic upon introduction of the fusion protein into a vertebrate host. The recombinant genes and proteins of the present invention can be used in vaccine formulations, to provide protection against infection by the heterologous organism, or to provide protection against conditions or disorders caused by an antigen of the organism. In a specific embodiment, attenuated invasive bacteria expressing the recombinant flagellin genes of the invention can be used in live vaccine formulations. The invention is illustrated by way of examples in which epitopes of malaria circumsporozoite antigens, the B subunit of Cholera toxin, surface and presurface antigens of Hepatitis B, VP7 polypeptide of rotavirus, envelope glycoprotein of HIV, and M protein of Streptococcus, are expressed in recombinant flagellin fusion proteins which assemble into functional flagella, and which provoke an immune response directed against the heterologous epitope, in a vertebrate host.

Title: Optical information recording medium and method for producing same
Inventor: SAWADA KAZUMI
IPC: B29D11/00
Filed: 1995-10-25
Abstract: An optical information recording medium which has a reflecting layer for optically reading information signals. The medium is composed of a plastic substrate. The substrate is colored with a dye so that the kind of information recorded on the medium can be visually confirmed at a glance whether the information is, for example, a game program, musical information, or other kinds of information. Usually, the optical system of a reader is affected and the reader cannot read data easily when such an impurity as the dye, etc., is mixed in the substrate. The influence on the optical system is eliminated because the particle size of the dye is reduced to 50  mu m. <IMAGE>

Title: Consolidating loose ground formation
IPC: C08G18/30
Filed: 1985-06-05
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for consolidating and sealing coal and/or rock, soil and brick formations in mining, tunnelling and construction by reacting polyisocyanates and aqueous alkali silicate solutions in the presence of a catalyst prompting the trimerization of the polyisocyanate. The catalyst is used in an amount of 6.0 to 14.5 mmole per mole of NCO groups in the reaction mixture. When the reaction mixture is introduced into the coal and/or rock, soil and brick formation to be consolidated and is cured, excellent consolidation results are achieved on account of the formation of an "interpermeated network" of inorganic and organic polymer.

Title: Cycle propelled by pedal and saddle movement
Inventor: HUNG GEORGE HON-CHEUNG
IPC: B62J1/02
Filed: 1993-09-21
Abstract: A cycle is convertible between a standard cycle configuration for normal cycling and an exercise configuration in which the cycle is propelled forwards by alternate saddle strokes, and pedal strokes, the saddle stroke comprising putting the cyclist's weight on the saddle (5) which moves downwardly driving the crank shaft (6) and bringing the two in-phase pedals (4a, 4b) upwardly, the pedal stroke comprising pressing down on both pedals (4a, 4b) to bring the saddle up again. In the exercise configuration the cycle is prevented from stalling by an arrangement whereby when the pedals (4a, 4b) are at bottom dead centre the weight on the saddle (5) is applied to the crank (6c) at an angle to the vertical to maintain forward propulsion, and whereby when the saddle is at bottom dead centre the pedals (4a, 4b) are just forward of top dead centre so as to maintain forward propulsion. In the exercise configuration the pedals may be constrained to rotate in one direction only by means of a ratchet mechanism (12, 13, 14, 16) thereby preventing the pedals hitting the cyclist on the shins. <IMAGE>
