Abstract: A safety device for a syringe needle 68 has a base 2 which is mounted on the nose 62 of the syringe 60 and on which the hub 66 of the needle is received. A housing 14 is coupled at one end to the base 2 by a flexible hinge 12 so that the housing can be swung over the needle 68 and held in place by hooks 40, 42 within the housing which catch the needle. The other end of the housing 14 has an end cap 30 which is coupled with the main body of the housing by an accordion shape compressible section 27. The end cap 30 contains an elastomeric material 32 so that the cap can be pushed down towards the base 2 causing the tip 33 of the needle to penetrate the elastomeric material and be sealed and gripped by it.

Filed: 1991-09-04
Abstract: A propellable articulating animal toy (10̸) having a flexible, pliable stuffed body (12) which simulates an animal, preferably a puppy, having freely moveable body components. The body (12) fits over a housing (14) which includes at least one ground-engaging support wheel (32) connected within the housing (14). The housing (14) also includes a forwardly extending lever (34) pivotally mounted in the housing (14) and structured to be pivotally articulated up and down through an acute angle (A) by eccentric driving engagement with the wheel (32) as the toy (10̸) is manually propelled over a flat surface. The animal body (12) also covering the lever (34) is thus made to bob up and down appearing to be running or jumping as the toy (10̸) is propelled over the flat surface. Although only the forwardly portion of the animal body (12) is articulated by the pivoting movement of the lever (34), the entire body (12) and all body components take on a realistic running motion due to the pliable nature of the animal body (12) and its plush covering, which may also be made removable for holding and cuddling. A bellows (78) may also be included which produces a sound similar to that of the particular animal such as the bark of a dog. The bellows (78) is operably moved by the interior portion (82) of the lever (34) so as to produce a sound coincident with the running motion. The preferred embodiment includes a rearwardly and upwardly extending push handle (16) for propelling the toy (10̸) across the ground and a detachable leash (18/20̸) to add to the realism of the toy (10̸).

Title: High temperature recirculating chemical bath construction
Inventor: BERMAN ALLAN
IPC: H01L21/00
Filed: 1991-09-13
Abstract: A chemical bath (11) for immersing articles such as integrated circuit wafers in a hot flow of etchant or other liquid includes a liquid receptacle (13) with a first compartment (14) for receiving the articles and a second compartment (17) which acts as sump and further includes a trough (18) which channels overflow from the first compartment (14) into the sum (17). A pump (38) recirculates liquid from the sump (17) back to the first compartment (14). The receptacle is supported by a casing (12) in which the lower region of the receptacle (13) is situated. The casing (12) is sealed by a flange (48) on the receptacle (13) which overlays a rim member (21) on the casing (12) and by sealing material (54) situated between the rim member (21) and the underside of the flange (48). The flange (48) is located below the trough (18) in vertically spaced apart relationship with the trough. This inhibits direct heat transfer from the trough (18) to the seal (54) and thereby enhances seal durability.

Title: Multiple buffer time division multiplexing ring
Inventor: FREDERICSSON STAFFAN ANDERS
IPC: H04L5/22
Filed: 1991-01-30
Abstract: A multiple-buffer time-division-multiplexing ring is provided for enabling different computers using various communication protocols with different delay constraints to use the ring simultaneously for communication with a plurality of peripheral devices while at the same time maximizing the number of connections to peripheral devices which may be supported by the multiplexer ring. The multiple-buffer time-division-multiplexing ring utilizes two or more parallel or serial buffers in the ring which may be located in a permanently or temporarily assigned master node. Digital data a re carried around the ring in a plurality of time-slots wherein one or more time-slots are allocated for each user of the ring. The time-division-multiplexing ring uses the multiple buffers to advance time-slots for delay-sensitive protocols ahead of time-slots for non-delay-sensitive protocols.

Abstract: Un maître-cylindre de frein pour un système hydraulique de freinage à dispositif anti-bloqueur comprend une soupape centrale (10, 11) dans chaque piston (6, 7). La soupape centrale (10, 11) comprend une première soupape (44, 35) et une deuxième soupape (40, 37). L'espacement d'ouverture A de la première soupape (44, 35) est plus petit que l'espacement d'ouverture B de la deuxième soupape (40, 37). La première soupape (44, 35) se compose d'un matériau métallique, alors que le corps de fermeture de la deuxième soupape (40, 37) se compose d'un matériau élastique souple, par exemple d'une bague en caoutchouc (40). La première soupape (44, 35) peut assurer une fonction de régulation de la pression, étant donné qu'elle se compose d'un matériau dur. Cela n'élimine pas le risque que des particules d'impuretés contenues dans le milieu sous pression ne s'enfoncent dans la bille de soupape (14) ou dans le siège d'étanchéité (35), empêchant la fermeture complètement étanche de la soupape. Dans ce cas, la deuxième soupape (4, 37) assure au moins la fonction de fermeture de la soupape centrale (10, 11). Dans certaines limites, la deuxième soupape (40, 37) peut également assurer une fonction de régulation de la pression.

Abstract: Agent thérapeutique utilisé dans le traitement de lésions de la cornée contenant de la lactoferrine et/ou de la lactoperoxidase comme ingrédient actif. La lactoferrine et la lactoperoxidase sont des protéines contenues dans le lait et les larmes de l'homme, des bovins, etc., elle présente une activité antibactérienne et pharmacologique stimulant la croissance des lymphocytes. Toutefois, elles ont été peu appliquées en ophtalmologie. L'invention se base sur la découverte que lesdits ingrédients actifs présentent une nouvelle activité pharmacologique applicable à ce domaine, et ils sont utiles comme agents thérapeutiques de traitement des lésions de la cornée puisqu'ils ont une excellente activité stimulatrice sur la croissance de cellules parenchymateuses cornéennes.

Abstract: A closure assembly for a vial (5) for a sterile drug consists of a body (1), fitted with a sealable tube (2) that has a seal (3) that hermetically closes it on one end and that is in communication with the inside of the drug vial (5) on the other end. 
The sterile drug can be reconstituted and/or diluted in an IV solution by means of sterile docking in a closed system. Via the tube (2) on this closure assembly, the vial (5) is connected sterilely to a component with a closed sealable tube (19), such as an IV solution container (17) or a syringe by unsealing and joining the outer ends of the tubes (2,19) to each other in a sterile docking procedure. 
If the drug needs reconstitution or dilution, a sterile fluid can first be introduced into the drug vial (5) from the flexible container (17) or from the syringe via the joined ends of the tubes (2,19). When the drug is dissolved, the solution can be aspirated to the flexible container (17) or to the syringe. Subsequently, the tube connecting the vial (5) and the component (17) can be sealed and the seal can be cut.
