Title: Fishbone standardised silencers for (internal) combustion engines
Inventor: DECLERCQ PAUL EUGENE ALOIS
IPC: F01N1/00
Filed: 1992-10-02
Abstract: This patent application is for a new silencer design with the following features: free (exhaust) gas flow through, which means close to zero back pressure, or head loss; superior acoustic performance, especially in the high- and mid frequency ranges; increased engine net performance and efficiency; identical accoustical performance throughout its service life; simple, light, modular configuration, prone to: cheap industrial automatic production; reusing (cartridge type), and/or recycling, thus avoiding pollutant waste; standardising and uniformising of silencers throughout the (automotive) industry; constructed from the suitable material, can provide a really unlimited lifetime. Although this design is particularly suitable for (internal) combustion engine exhaust and induction mufflers, it can be applied advantageously to other silencers in- and outside the industry and, in general, our living environment (gas flow duct silencers, airco-, venting-, etc...).
Patent AU-2814397-A (AU)
Title: Golf club shaft with oversized grip section
Inventor: CHAMBERS MARSHALL H JR
IPC: A63B53/14
Filed: 1997-04-25
Abstract: A golf club shaft is described which has an upper grip portion with significantly greater diameter than the largest diameter of the lower power portion, with the two portions joined by an S-shaped transition portion. The large diameter of the grip portion permits recreational players or players with relatively weak hands to exert more power and greater control of the fine movements of the club shaft and golf club. The grip section has a minimum diameter at least 35% greater than the maximum diameter of the power section and the transition section has a length not greater than 15% of the overall length of the shaft. The shaft may be made of any convenient material which can be formed into the curves of the transition section without imposing undue stresses in the curved portions. The shaft may be formed of metal or, preferably, a fiber/polymer composite material. The shaft permits the typical recreational player to improve his or her game by being able to obtain significantly better control of the alignment of club face and ball during the swing and shot, without requiring any increase in the player's normal hand and wrist gripping strength. It is also of utility for players who have arthritis or other debilitating conditions in their hands and wrists, in that it permits them to play better with their limited gripping ability, and in some cases permits resumption of limited play where to play at all had become unacceptably difficult because of the physical problems.

Patent AU-4418496-A (AU)
Title: High speed communications system for analog subscriber connections
Inventor: TOWNSHEND BRENT
IPC: H04M11/00
Filed: 1995-12-04
Abstract: A new data communication system is described which enables data transmission over existing telephone lines at rates higher than possible with existing methods, including conventional modems. By using a novel asymmetric configuration of the two communication endpoints, the currently-accepted maximum theoretical limits on the data rate are no longer applicable. One endpoint is connected directly to a digital telephone network, whereas the other endpoint uses a conventional telephone connection. This reduces the transmission problem to compensation for a single telephone line interface and a single analog local loop. Means of providing this compensation and the required clock synchronization were also created, enabling a practical implementation of the system. The new system can achieve rates up to 64,000 bits-per-second and has broad utility in several active areas including wide-band audio transmission, video transmission, networking, facsimile transmission, and remote computer access.

Title: Sensor employing impedance measurements
Inventor: VADGAMA PANKAJ MAGANLAL
IPC: G01N27/02
Filed: 1997-10-22
Abstract: A sensor uses an immobilized affinity component capable of interacting with analyte species and being associated with a conducting polymer such that the interaction of the affinity component and the analyte induces change in the electrical properties of the polymer. An AC signal is applied to the polymer, and the induced change in impedance resulting from the interaction is measured. The impedance is measured at a frequency or frequencies corresponding to a peak or peaks in the relationship between frequency and impedance change for the polymer and the analyte. The measurement may be made by reference to the imaginary or real component of impedance. The polymer may be in the form of a layer bridging two electrodes between which the impedance is measured. The two electrodes may together define an interdigitated electrode assembly.

Title: Constructional toy components
Inventor: MADNER PETER
IPC: A63H33/08
Filed: 1993-08-27
Abstract: A constructional toy component (13) which has on at least one edge (11), two portions (15, 16) each of which has associated therewith one of two complementary members (19, 18), the arrangement being such that when two similar edges are brought into abutment but in the opposite sense, the complementary members (19, 18) can interengage if one of the components is initially flexed to effectively vary the spacing between the complementary members thereon. In one form of the invention, the edges are formed of rod like members and thus the component is basically defined by a peripheral frame. After engagement is completed, and the flexure is released, there is effectively no deformation of either component, but the components are held together by the interrelationship of the complementary members.

Title: High pressure refolding of protein aggregates and inclusion bodies
Inventor: RANDOLPH THEODORE W
IPC: C07K1/113
Filed: 1999-07-09
Abstract: The present disclosure provides an effective method for the refolding of denatured proteins in solution so that properly folded, biologically active protein in solution is recovered in high yield. The refolding takes place at pressures between about 0.25 kbar to about 3.5 kbar, advantageously at about 1.5 kbar to about 3 kbar. Typically a chaotropic agent is present at a concentration which is not effective for denaturing protein at atmospheric pressure, and optionally, oxidation-reduction reagents can be incorporated in the refolding solution so that native intramolecular disulfide bonds can be formed where that is desired. The method is applicable to substantially all proteins, especially after solubilization and/or denaturation of insoluble protein aggregates, inclusion bodies, or abnormal oligomeric (soluble) aggregates.
