Patent AU-690715-B2 (AU)
Title: Deposition sensing method and apparatus
Inventor: MERCUSOT MICHEL
IPC: G01L5/00
Filed: 1995-07-25
Granted: 1998-04-30
Abstract: A high-speed out-of-band signalling technique for transferring information such as station status information between stations in a communication network, typically a local-area network, involves sequentially generating a plurality of n-bit sequence segments, where n is at least 3. Each bit is either a first binary value or a second binary value. Each sequence segment is coded with one of a plurality of different n-bit code groups divided into a first code group and a set of second code groups. The n bits in the first code group are all the first binary value-e.g., all "1s". None of the second code groups contain a pair of non-contiguous bits of the second binary value-e.g., none of the second code groups contains two "0s" separated by at least one other bit. The sequence segments are outputted in the order that they were generated to produce a special bit sequence which carries the desired information. The station status information typically includes configuration capability, flow control parameters, and integrity control parameters.

Granted: 2003-09-18
Abstract: An expandable soft tissue fixation assembly for use in anchoring soft tissue to bone. The assembly includes a tab connected to an anchor, a sleeve adapted to surround the anchor, and a flange adapted to hold a soft tissue segment next to a bone. The sleeve is inserted into a blind hole in a bone, and a section of soft tissue is placed over the hole next to the bone. Energy is applied to the flange while a predetermined axial tension is applied to the tab to compress a flared portion of the anchor against the sleeve. An upper tube portion of the anchor and the flange are bonded together, and the applied axial force on the tab separates it from the anchor, leaving the assembly anchored in the bone and the soft tissue section anchored in place between the flange and the bone.

Abstract: For subscriber access, via optical fibre, to communications networks that offer various types of service by means of an optical access node (AN). The connections between the optical network terminating equipments (ONT), to which the subscribers are connected, and the access node (AN) can be made with point-to-point or point-to-multipoint fibre optic links. The links between the access node (AN) and the switching centre (CE) are made via optical fibres through which pass the lightwave signals corresponding to a number of subscribers, multiplexed together by means of wavelength division multiplexing. This network permits access to all types of communications services in which each type of service employs a reserved wavelength for its connection between the access node (AN) and the optical network terminating equipment (ONT). This reserved wavelength is fixed and depends only on the type of service. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A dry-air-surface heat exchanger is provided for use in a liquid cooling tower, and includes a plurality of preformed, shape-retaining heat transfer members of relatively thin synthetic resin sheet material. Each member presents a pair of upright, side-by-side panels that are preferably folded together about a vertical axis to present inward-facing wet-transfer surfaces adapted to transfer heat between the fluid and the member, and an outward-facing dry-transfer surface adapted to transfer heat between the member and air. The folded member is configured to present a series of tortuous liquid flow paths between the panels extending between the upper and lower edges, and the side edges are secured together in substantially fluid tight sealing engagement. A plurality of the folded members are provided in a pack, and a diffuser is positioned adjacent to the upper edges of the folded members for receiving hot liquid and directing the hot liquid between the panels of each member. The diffuser seats against the upper edges to substantially uniformly distribute the fluid to be cooled into the fluid passages while keeping the air passages therebetween free of fluid. The ratio of the total vertical, cross-sectional area of the liquid passages through the heat transfer members with respect to the total vertical, cross-sectional area of the air passages between the heat transfer members is from about 0.67 to about 1.5.

Granted: 2001-01-04
Abstract: An apparatus is provided for cleaning poultry carcasses having a cavity. A plurality of cleaning heads are spaced about a sprayer carousel that is rotatably mounted upon a vertical shaft. The cleaning heads are mounted upon a plurality of vertically oriented guide rails which are spaced about the sprayer carousel. A circumferential cam is fixedly connected to the vertical shaft inside the sprayer carousel. A cam follower connected to each cleaning head follows the profile of the cam, displacing the cleaning head vertically along the guide rails. A conveyor transports the carcasses sequentially into and out of engagement with the sprayer carousel and an indexing member maintains each of the carcasses in alignment with one of the cleaning heads. In response to relative movement between the fixed cam and the rotatable sprayer carousel the cam follower of each cleaning head follows the circumferential profile of the cam. In this way each cleaning head is inserted into the internal cavity of the carcass where the probe is maintained for a dwell period before being withdrawn from the internal cavity.

Inventor: HOCHE HERMANN
IPC: A23C15/14
Filed: 1990-04-20
Granted: 1992-07-30
Abstract: In a process for producing low-cholesterol butter fat or butter by steam treatment, the fat is treated with steam in one or more horizontal or slightly inclined reaction pipes at a temperature of 195 to 250 DEG C and a pressure of 0.5 to 5 mbar. The steam is injected through steam-outlet holes in the walls of mutually parallel steam pipes which extend through the layer that conducts the liquid fat (oil) along the whole length of the reaction pipe parallel to the axis of the pipe. The vapour is removed and the fat, to which fat recombination substances may be added, is cooled. The low-cholesterol butter fat of butter can be readily obtained in an installation which contains several reaction pipes, and can be advantageously used to manufacture foods and luxury foodstuffs, in particular for dietetic products, or consumed or processed directly as a dietary fat.
