Title: Addition polymer particles
Inventor: ANDERSON GEOFFREY BRUCE
IPC: C09D4/06
Filed: 1990-03-21
Abstract: The use of an alkoxylated stabiliser containing polyoxyalkylene chains to impart a core-sheath structure to particles of film-forming polymer to enable them to form a stable aqueous coating composition wherein the core contains film-forming polymer and the sheath contains the polyoxyalkylene chains which contain 6 to 40 oxyalkylene units some of which are covalently bonded to the core and which are provided by an alkoxylated C18 fatty alcohol containing more than one non-terminal and non-pendant ethylenic double bond. The stable aqueous coating composition can be formed even when the particles are very small (ie average diameter below 100 nm) without having to employ aromatic moieties or multiple terminal or pendant double bonds which either produce aromatic biodegradation products or are difficult to bio-degrade. Also the sterically stabilised particles and coatings formed from film-forming material to which at least some stabiliser is bonded.

Patent AU-5580399-A (AU)
Title: Improved shaft seal assembly
Inventor: ORLOWSKI DAVID C
IPC: F16J15/447
Filed: 1999-08-24
Abstract: An improved shaft seal assembly is disclosed having a stator including a main body and axial and radial projections therefrom. The rotor is radially extended and encompasses the axial and radial projections from said stator. The passageway formed between the radial projection of the stator and the rotor results in an axial passageway having its opening facing rearwardly from the rotor and away from the source of impinging coolant and/or contaminant. The dimension of interface gap between the rotor and the radial projection from the stator, which the access to the shaft of any impinging material, is fixed at a predetermined value and does not vary with the relative movement between the rotor and the stator. The novel seal assembly of this invention thus provides improved rejection or warding off of contaminates from ingress into the labyrinths and ultimately restrained from attacking the bearing environment.

Title: Improvded gas-liquid vortex mixer
Inventor: HILLS BLAIR HOWARD
IPC: B01F7/24
Filed: 1998-01-14
Abstract: An apparatus and method are provided for mixing gas and liquid. An impeller is rotatably mounted inside a draft tube. Inlet baffles are mounted adjacent the inlet end of the draft tube in close proximity to the impeller. In addition, outlet baffles are mounted adjacent the outlet end of the draft tube in close proximity to the impeller. Rotation of the impeller draws liquid down through the draft tube and creates vortices which serve to entrain gas into the liquid. The provision of inlet and outlet baffles directly adjacent the rotating impeller produces high gas entrainment and shear rates and improves gas transfer efficiency. The gas-liquid vortex mixer is particularly suitable for treating industrial and municipal waste water, as well as various other liquids. Gases such as air, oxygen, hydrogen, and the like are efficiently dissolved in such liquids during operation of the gas-liquid vortex mixer.

Patent AU-6530196-A (AU)
Title: Vehicle parking system
Inventor: ROSENBERG ARMAND DAVID
IPC: G07B15/02
Filed: 1996-07-29
Abstract: A vehicle parking network comprises a transmitter-responder device (TRD) for each subscriber and a complementary box which can be coupled to the TRD and only to it, and permits it to communicate with a central computer. The complementary box is provided with identification marks that can be scanned from the outside and includes a microcontroller, memory means and timing means. Once the vehicle is parked, the TRD is used to obtain from the computer a parking authorization and an allowed parking time. Then a legitimate parking sign is displayed and the parking time is downcounted until the allowed time has been completed or until the vehicle leaves the parking space. If a communication with the computer cannot be established, the complementary box carries out an assumed parking procedure, stores its data in a buffer memory, and later transmits them to the computer for verification and registration. The computer communicates the data of each parking to the Public Authority charged with collecting the parking fees. Examples of TRD's are cellular phones, messages recorders, pagers, private alarms and vehicle location units (VLU). If a VLU is used, the central computer obtains vehicle location data from the control center of the vehicle location system, monitors the vehicle positions, and carries out the parking procedure. <IMAGE>

Title: Evaporative air-cooling system
Inventor: POLYCHRONOPOULOS ASSIMIOS
IPC: F24F1/0071
Filed: 1998-05-08
Abstract: With the proposed evaporative air-cooling system, we can achieve the reduction of the temperature of a space by making use of the natural characteristic of water to absorb heat during its vaporization from the body with which it is in contact. It comprises large wet surfaces created with a small mass of water within a limited space due to the activation of the molecular powers of water and of other material with molecular powers relevant to the ones of water. These wet surfaces are thin cloths, made of cotton or other material with features similar to that of cotton, impregnated with water in a controlled manner so that they can be kept wet at all times. These moistened cloths (12) are placed on bodies (G2) inside which the air of the space to be cooled circulates. Thus, when a vaporization is effected from the wet surfaces into the free atmosphere, heat is absorbed by these bodies producing a "vaporization cold" inside them. Likewise, when the air of the cooled spaces circulates inside these bodies, it leaves heat on them causing in this way the temperature of the cooled space to decrease. This decreased temperature can be by many degrees lower than the temperature of the environment depending on the factors affecting the vaporization speed, among which the relative moisture of the environment where these evaporative air cooling systems operate is the principal.
