Inventor: PARKS ROBERT
IPC: A47F1/00
Filed: 2003-08-08
Granted: 2013-05-14
Abstract: A drug dispensing device is comprised of an upper hopper having an upper opening for receiving a medicament and a lower opening. A lid covers the upper opening. A lower hopper having an upper opening and a lower opening in a bottom portion thereof is provided. The upper hopper defines a bulk storage chamber and the lower hopper defines a dispensing chamber. A rotatable dispensing disc is positioned in a lower portion of the dispensing chamber for dispensing medicament from the drug dispensing device through the lower opening in the lower hopper. A regulator is situated between the bulk storage chamber and the dispensing chamber for controlling the rate at which medicament moves from the storage chamber to the dispensing chamber. The regulator may take a variety of forms. In one embodiment, the regulator includes a valve for controlling the flow of medicament from the storage chamber to the dispensing chamber. The valve may include a member responsive to the volume of medicament in the dispensing chamber for controlling the position of the valve. The valve and member may include a trap door valve and a float, a butterfly valve and a rotatable arm, a guillotine valve and a movable arm, and a conical plunger and a wing extending from the base of the plunger. In another embodiment, the regulator may include a rotatable member having an opening therein. The rotatable member may include a cylindrical wall having an opening in a portion thereof, a plate having an opening therein, a cup shaped member defining an opening and a pair of rotatable members which together define at least one opening therein. The regulator may be configured such that the rate at which medicament moves from the storage chamber to the dispensing chamber is never zero. Further, agitating members may be provided which extend toward the upper hopper. Methods of operation are also disclosed.
Patent CA-2495834-C (CA)
Inventor: RIBBLE BRENDON F
IPC: C11D1/22
Filed: 2003-08-08
Granted: 2011-04-26
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un produit de nettoyage personnel auquel on peut conférer une taille permettant son usage unique. Le produit de nettoyage est un produit en mousse extrudé qui peut se désintégrer lorsqu'il est en contact avec de l'eau, quand il est utilisé pour un lavage effectué de façon traditionnelle. Lorsque la mousse se désintègre, l'agent de nettoyage contenu dans la matrice de mousse est libéré. La désintégration du produit peut se faire doucement, sur une période telle que, si on utilise un produit de nettoyage d'une taille permettant son usage individuel pour frotter jusqu'à ce qu'il soit complètement désintégré, la durée du frottement est assez longue pour garantir que les niveaux désirés de propreté sont atteints. Selon une variante, le produit peut se désintégrer immédiatement et libérer tout le savon sensiblement en une fois. Ce produit se présente sous la forme d'une mousse extrudée expansée obtenue par mélange d'amidon naturel, d'un agent de nucléation, d'un désintégrant, d'un agent gonflant, d'un polymère hydrosoluble et d'une base de savon. Eventuellement, la mousse peut comprendre un amidon déstructuré, naturel, des colorants, des parfums etc., ce qui permet d'obtenir des caractéristiques de produit spécifiques.

Abstract: The invention is a process and apparatus for producing a cross-linked, tubular film or "tape" that uses a motor driven nip roll assembly and a product driven idler roll to pump gases contained within the film in a desired direction. The process eliminates the need to create slits to vent gases that are trapped within the film. The motor driven roll comprises a driven nip roll and a driven peristaltic roll that cooperate to drive the film forward and nip the film. The driven peristaltic roll includes a pumping section that comprises a plurality of pumping rollers that pump gases contained within the film in a direction that is the reverse direction of film travel. The product driven roll comprises a spool roller and a plurality of pumping rollers that are circumferentially spaced around the spool roller. The pumping rollers trap and pump gases contained in the film in the reverse direction of film travel.

Abstract: A label sheet (1) having a release liner (16) and a column of labels (12) releasably adhered thereto is modified to allow easy removal of the labels.  The liner has a weakened separation line (30) formed by cuts and ties running underneath a column of labels near the edge of the labels, and notches (18) at the top and bottom of the sheet aligned with the cuts and ties. A matrix (14) surrounding the labels, if present, also has cuts and ties, with the cuts and ties in the matrix parallel to and slightly offset from the cuts and ties in the liner. The separation lines are strong enough that the label sheet can be fed through a printer, yet weak enough that a user can tear off the liner and matrix along the separation lines, thus leaving a minor edge of a column of labels exposed for easy removal from the label sheet.

Title: Recovery of non-ferrous metals from zinc residues
Inventor: VAN CAMP MAURITS
IPC: C22B5/12
Filed: 2004-06-08
Granted: 2012-07-10
Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the separation and recovery of non-ferrous metals from zinc-bearing residues, in particular from residues produced by the zinc manufacturing industry. The process allows for the valorisation of metal values in a Zn-, Fe- and Pb-bearing residue, and comprises the steps of: -subjecting the residue to a direct reduction step, thereby producing a metallic Fe-bearing phase and Zn- and Pb-bearing first fumes; - extracting the Zn- and Pb-bearing first fumes and valorising Zn and Pb; - subjecting the metallic Fe-bearing phase to an oxidising smelting step, thereby producing an Fe-bearing slag and second metals-bearing fumes; -extracting the second metals-bearing fumes and valorising at least part of their metallic content. The main advantage of this process is that an environmentally acceptable output for Fe is obtained.

Abstract: A jewelry clasp having a pair of bodies at the free ends of a piece of jewelry affixed together by magnetic forces. Each body has a magnet means having north and south poles that are aligned along the longitudinal center line of the clasp with opposite poles abutting each other to hold those bodies in the affixed relationship. There is a safety catch on one of the bodies having a protrusion extending therefrom that overlaps the other body to hold the bodies together. As the protrusion is moved into its latched position, the other body is displaced along the longitudinal centerline to misalign the respective magnetic means, and when the protrusion seats in its latched position, the magnetic means realigns by the magnetic attraction between the magnetic means creating an click that can be heard and/or felt by the wearer to confirm that the bodies are properly affixed together.
