Title: Separation of plastic and elastomers for food and pharmaceutical products
Inventor: MAY DONALD BRUCE
IPC: C08K3/10
Filed: 2005-09-08
Abstract: Contaminants in food or pharmaceuticals derived from the handling equipment are detected by known detection devices in product flow by the method of detecting particulate magnetic mineral dispersed in the handling equipment or the film used to wrap the food. The minerals magnetic field is detected and the signal generated thereby causes rejection of the product which contains the contamination. A method of making moulded parts of the handling equipment and wrapping film by incorporation of ferrimagnetic ceramic fillers is disclosed. Compositions for moulding and film extrusion with 10-50% of magnetite and other magnetic fillers with a size range of 0.5-20µ are disclosed.

IPC: A61H9/00
Filed: 2005-12-21
Abstract: An automated massage device for biomechanical rehabilitation massage for use on CP patients comprises at least one inflatable bladder with inflation means adapted to provide compressive forces against the body to stimulate smooth muscles in a controlled manner. The device includes a programmable controller that is able to receive instructions on a dynamic prescriptive basis from a professional therapist and then relay these instructions to a care-giver in a home situation. The instructions include the placement of the bladder, the duration of the massage and the sequence of body locations to receive massage therapy. Once the bladder is placed in the required position against the body the device will execute the prescribed massage therapy for that location and then cue the care-giver to move the bladder to the next body location in the prescribed sequence. The prescription is time limited and once expired renders the device inoperable to prevent over application of the massage therapy.

IPC: C22F1/18
Filed: 2006-02-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for casting objects from a ~-titanium alloy containing titanium molybdenum with a molybdenum content of 7.5 to 25 %.  According to the invention: a melting of the alloy is carried out at a temperature of higher than 1770 ~C; the molten alloy is precision cast into a mold corresponding to the object to be produced, and this cast object is subjected to a hot-isostatic pressing, solution annealing and subsequent quenching. An efficient production of objects made from ~-titanium alloys in the precision casting process is achieved using the inventive method. The invention thus creates the possibility of combining the advantageous properties of ~-titanium alloys, particularly their excellent mechanical properties, with the advantages of a production of objects in the precision casting process. Even objects having complex shapes, which could not or could not be sensibly produced by conventional forging methods, can be produced from a ~-titanium alloy thanks to the invention.
