Title: Manually operated dispenser for dispensing a predetermined amount of powdered substance
Inventor: REX J RGEN
IPC: A61M13/00
Filed: 1990-10-24
Abstract: A manually operated dispenser for dispensing a predetermined amount of powdered substance comprises a pressure cylinder (2) with an axially displaceable piston (3). A super-atmospheric pressure is generated by displacing the piston inwardly in the cylinder and is releaved through a chamber (41) in a magazine (40) comprising a number of chambers (41) containing powdered substance. The ends of the chambers (41) are covered by penetrable membranes (48), and the chambers (41) may be moved to successively being in alignment with a penetrator (30) and an outlet pipe (46). When the piston (3) is in its inner-most position the penetrator (30) and the inlet end of the out-let pipe (46) are forced through the respective membranes (48) at the ends of the chamber (41), and the subatmospheric pressure is releaved through the chamber (41) to dispense its content through the outlet pipe (46). The magazine (40) is annular and comprises a number of tubular chambers (41) placed equidistantly at some distance from and parallel with the axis of the magazine (40). At each full displacement of the piston (3) the magazine (40) is rotated to bring a new chamber (41) in alignment with the penetrator (30) and the outlet pipe (46).

Title: Therapeutic methods and compounds
Inventor: BRENNAN FIONULA MARY
IPC: A61K39/00
Filed: 2000-09-25
Abstract: A method of identifying a compound with efficacy in the treatment of chronic inflammatory disease by testing the compound for an ability to selectively inhibit the ability of T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells to induce pro-inflammatory cytokine release from a monocyte is disclosed. The method includes pre-incubatin T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells with a compound to be tested, optionally resuspending the T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells in the absence of the test compound, co-culturing the T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells with monocytes, and assaying for the production of pro-inflammatory cytokines by the monocytes. The T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells are produced by incubating a population of T cells with one or more cytokines or the T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells are isolated from synovial tissue. The T<SUB>ck </SUB>cells have not been contacted with an anti-CD3 antibody. The ability to selectively inhibit cytokine release indicates that the compound has efficacy in the treatment of chronic inflammatory disease.

Patent AU-7510700-A (AU)
Title: Locking device, especially for use in motor vehicles
Inventor: JACOB DIRK
IPC: E05B19/00
Filed: 2000-08-25
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to improve locking devices, especially for use in motor vehicles, in which a locking cylinder is mounted on at least one door and this locking cylinder is operated by a key (10) which has code tracks (13) on the flat sides (11) thereof. To this end, the profile (14) which typifies the key (10) and which, according to the state of the art, is arranged in the outer areas of the flat sides (11) of the key (10) is realized in the form of a groove (14) that is located on the narrow sides (12) of the key (10) and recessed therein. In addition, a projection is provided on the upper and/or lower narrow side of the key channel of the locking cylinder and, when the key (10) is inserted, the projection engages inside the groove (14') located on the key. The inventive measures permit the height of the key (10) to be reduced since the edges of the flat sides (11) of the key (10) can be brought close to the code path (13). In addition, the key (10) wobbles less by virtue of the fact that the projection is guided in the groove (14') when the key is inserted into the locking cylinder.

Inventor: THOMAS BRIAN
IPC: H02H9/02
Filed: 1998-08-05
Abstract: An overcurrent protection system which will give a rapid response to overcurrents which cause a reduction in the voltage across the load, e.g. a partial or complete short across the load, and which will preserve the trip endurance of a PTC device used in the protection system. The new system maintains the trip endurance of the PTC device by removing the source voltage from the PTC, while still keeping the circuit protection arrangement in a fault state, thereby continuing to protect the load.
Patent AU-8902991-A (AU)
Title: Television transmission system with bandwidth reduction
Inventor: WESTON MARTIN
IPC: H04N7/12
Filed: 1991-11-15
Abstract: In a television system in which a signal of given bandwidth is to be transmitted over a channel of narrower bandwidth, the signal is subject to pre-filtering and subsampling at the transmitter and supersampling and post-filtering at the receiver. The post-filtering means (14) comprises three filters A, B and C in parallel which are selectable in response to the characteristics of the signal to be transmitted. In order to avoid anomalies caused by switching at the transmitter, the pre-filter (10) is a single filter with a fixed pass band equivalent to the union of the pass bands of the filters A, B and C of the post-filtering means (14). The pre-filter (10) thus effectively rejects signals of frequency, such that they would not be passed by any of the filters A, B and C.
