Title: Method and apparatus for sorting elongate articles
Inventor: CHURCHLAND MARK T
IPC: B07C5/06
Filed: 1983-08-10
Abstract: A method and apparatus for sorting elongate articles by length is disclosed. The apparatus includes a first conveyor belt, a second conveyor belt, a holding mechanism located at the discharge end of the first conveyor belt and a grasping mechanism located at an inlet end of the second conveyor belt. The holding and grasping mechanisms are spaced from one another by a gap through which articles having a length less than a preselected length fall. The holding mechanism holds the articles which pass the discharge end of the first conveyor belt in alignment with a plane in which the top run of the first conveyor belt moves. The grasping mechanism grasps the front ends of desired elongate articles which have a length equal to or greater than the preselected length prior to the release of the rearward ends of the desired articles from the holding mechanism.

Title: Dehydrogenase detection process
Inventor: ROY ASOK KUMAR
IPC: C12Q1/26
Filed: 1983-08-22
Abstract: A process for the production of a diagnostic device which is envisaged, in particular, for the detection of a pathologically increased concentration of dehydrogenases in fluids of humans, animals or plants and consists of a carrier and a substance mixture, in which, in each case with exclusion of UV radiation, the substance mixture, which has been adjusted to a pH value in the acid range, is brought into contact, in liquid form, with the carrier and the combination of carrier and substance mixture is subsequently dried and then enclosed in a packaging casing which is opaque to light of higher energy than red light. The process has the peculiarity that the dried combination of carrier and substance mixture in the packaging casing is securely sealed against entry of air and moisture. The device thus produced can be stored for a long time before use, without its ability to function being substantially changed.

Patent AU-2298597-A (AU)
Title: Distributed real-time communications system
Inventor: MOLLER MATTHEW DONALDSON
IPC: H04L12/18
Filed: 1997-03-27
Abstract: A method and apparatus is provided which enables users to communicate in a perceived real-time environment. In one embodiment, a number of musical parts are contributed one each from a number of client terminals. Each terminal generates and sends to a server a short sequence or sequence of sequences, for example a few bars of music. The server echoes the sequences out to each of the other clients' terminals where they are synchronised to a local clock and repeated a plurality of times, with the generated sequence being repeated at the sending client a similar number of times. The local synchronisation overcomes the problems of propagation delay between clients and server, and the repetition of sequences allows a continuous stream of data to be output at each client. A solo or non-repetitive line may be added by commencing sending the solo line to the server before the remaining lines. The solo line is buffered at each of the clients and then synchronised to the local clock. The non-solo lines arrive at the solo client after the solo data stream has commenced. However, as they are repetitive, they are synchronised by the local clock to the next sequence repeat.

Patent AU-3167100-A (AU)
Title: Method and device for desalting water
Inventor: WOBBEN ALOYS
IPC: C02F1/44
Filed: 2000-03-18
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for desalting water by reverse osmosis, in particular for desalting sea water, whereby salt water at a first pressure level is introduced into a pressure compensating device, and is conveyed from the pressure-compensating device at a second, higher pressure level into a membrane module, whereby desalted water and concentrated salt water are discharged from the membrane module. In order to increase the efficiency and consequently the energy balance of such a method, the invention proposes to continuously introduce the concentrated salt water, which has been discharged from the membrane module, at a second pressure level into the pressure-compensating device, wherein it is used to subject the salt water introduced into the pressure compensating device to the second pressure level, and to discharge the salt water and convey it to the membrane module. The invention also concerns a device for implementing this method.
Patent AU-3193897-A (AU)
Title: Vaccine comprising antigens bound to carriers through labile bonds
Inventor: BEEKMAN NICO JOHANNES CHRISTIA
IPC: C07K7/23
Filed: 1997-06-24
Abstract: The invention is in the field of vaccines and immunogenic preparations. Normally in these preparations antigens and carrier compounds are irreversibly coupled in a stable bond. The invention, to the contrary, provides vaccines and immunogenic preparations in which the antigen (be it protein or peptide or carbohydrate or any other molecule to be used as an antigen for immunization/vaccination procedures) and the carrier compound are coupled in a reversible and labile way, with a so-called labile link. In this way, as is demonstrated in the experimental part of this application, surprisingly a better immune response can be elicited by an in itself poorly immunogenic antigen than by methods that provide a stable link between the antigen and carrier compound.

Title: Inferential signal generator for instrumented equipment and processes
Inventor: WEGERICH STEPHAN W
IPC: G01H11/00
Filed: 2001-11-21
Abstract: A system for monitoring instrumented equipment (110) comprises sensors monitored from the instrumented equipment, an information processor (545), a data acquisition input to the information processor for receiving operational values descriptive of physical parameters of the system from the sensors. A memory (551) coupled with the data acquisition input stores a set of time-correlated sensor data representative of expected operational states, and observed signals. The information processor generates an output value descriptive of a parameter of the instrumented equipment and observed signals and obtains a similarity measure between the expected operational states and the observed signals. The similarity measure is obtained using an output value from the information processor and a value representing an expected state of the system, and is a value within a range. One end of the range means the compared values have no similarity and the other end means the compared values are identical.
