Inventor: GABRIEL JOCHEN
IPC: A61M5/315
Filed: 2004-07-28
Abstract: The invention relates to an injection device comprising a housing (50) which is adapted to receive a container (108) filled with an injection liquid (110).  The device further comprises a plunger rod (98) for extracting the injection liquid (110) from such a container (108). Said plunger rod (98) is provided with a threaded section (100) and is guided in an axial direction (112, 114) relative to the housing (50). A threaded part (122) has a threaded section (120) that engages with the threaded section (100) of the plunger rod (98).  Said threaded part (122) can be rotated relative to the plunger rod (98) and the housing (50), thereby adjusting an injection dose, and is axially displaced relative to the plunger rod (98) and the housing (50). During injection, the threaded part (122) is displaced relative to the housing (50) in the direction of injection and is prevented from rotation relative to the plunger rod (98).

Title: Improved hds process using selected naphtha streams
Inventor: VICHAILAK MONTRI
IPC: C10G49/00
Filed: 2004-05-05
Abstract: A process for concurrently fractionating and hydrotreating a full range naphtha stream. The full boiling range naphtha stream (1) is subjected to simultaneous hydrodesulfurization and splitting into a light boiling range naphtha (3) and a heavy boiling range naphtha (19), which have been treated to convert mercaptans in the fractions to H2S, which is separated with and separated from the light naphtha which is further hydrodesulfurized by contacting the light boiling range naphtha with hydrogen (2) in countercurrent flow in a fixed bed of hydrodesulfurization catalyst to remove recombinant mercaptans which are formed by the reverse reaction of H2S with olefins in the naphtha during the initial hydrodesulfurization wherein the improvement comprises fractionating said portion of light boiling range naphtha to remove a lighter fraction thereof from said countercurrent flow reactor before contact of said lighter fraction with said fixed catalyst, because the lighter fraction is substantially free of mercaptans and is not benefitted by further treatment.

Title: Hand deactivated shopping cart automatic braking system
Inventor: HUTCHISON MONTY
IPC: B62B9/08
Filed: 2005-12-12
Abstract: A braking system designed to be an integral part of a shopping cart. The braking system consists of a hand-operated brake that is gravity actuated and normally engaged.

Abstract: Un outil de construction utilisé dans le domaine de la pose de fourrure et pour l'installation de traverses sous la fourrure et dans la charpente d'un bâtiment. L'outil permet de garder la même distance entre les traverses et entre les barres insonores. L'outil accélère la pose des traverses en évitant de mesurer pour toutes les traverses la distance entre celles-ci avant de les fixer à la charpente. Les travailleurs effectuant la pose de la fourrure bénéficieront de traverses installées à des distances constantes, ce qui facilitera leur tâche. L'outil comprend une tige munie d'une pince à une de ses extrémités et de moyens pour ajuster sa longueur à son autre extrémité. Une fois la longueur constante désirée entre les traverses ajustée, une pince de l'outil est enfilée dans la traverse déjà posée et en adossant l'autre extrémité de l'outil sur une traverse que l'on désire fixé à une charpente d'un bâtiment : la traverse deviendra donc la traverse d'appui pour la prochaine étape.
