Patent AU-3483200-A (AU)
Title: Method of making a fibrous electret web using a nonaqueous polar liquid
Inventor: EITZMAN PHILIP D
IPC: D06M101/20
Filed: 2000-02-04
Abstract: A method of charging fibrous webs with nonaqueous polar liquids. A web 20 that contains nonconductive fibers is wetted with a nonaqueous polar liquid 14. The web 20 is then substantially dried 22 to provide a fibrous electret web. The fibrous electret web can be used as a filter in a filtration face mask 40 that is adapted to cover the nose and mouth of the wearer. The present method has the advantage over known charging methods in that the nonaqueous liquid requires less energy for drying than is required for aqueous liquids. Additionally, many filter webs can be directly wetted with nonaqueous liquids, which cannot be easily wetted with aqueous liquids.
Patent AU-3502501-A (AU)
Title: Machine tool feeder chuck
Inventor: MARCHAND ALAIN
IPC: B23B31/20
Filed: 2001-04-05
Abstract: A feeder chuck according to the invention includes a tubular chuck body with an axial bore through which a bar is passed, with a downstream section including longitudinal slots enabling elastic deformation in the radial direction. An exterior envelope with an internal conical clamping bearing surface comes into contact with an external conical clamping bearing surface of the chuck body, and is screwed onto the chuck body. The intermediate portion of the exterior envelope has a capacity for elastic deformation in the longitudinal direction, for example by virtue of oblique openings. The feeder chuck therefore has a capacity for adjustment of its diameter combined with improved radial retention of the bar.

Title: Improvements relating to rotary piston machines
Inventor: WESLAKE-HILL IAN
IPC: F02B53/00
Filed: 1999-04-26
Abstract: A rotary piston machine adapts the Stirling principle and can operate as an engine or a heat pump. Two variable volume units (1,4) have n-lobed chambers (3,6) rotatable about a common axis at a first speed. Each chamber contains an (n+1) sided piston (2,5), these being rotatable about a different common axis at a different second speed, and co-operating with the lobes to form expanding and reducing sub-chambers. The first to second speed ratio is (n+1):n.n ducts (10,11) incorporating regenerators provide intercommunication between the chambers (3,6) and are open and closed by the relative piston rotation to exchange fluid or vapour between units. Heating may be provided for one unit, the expansion unit (1), and cooling for the other, the compression unit (4), and the ducts can also incorporate heating and cooling means.

Patent AU-3852389-A (AU)
Title: Dna amplification and subtraction techniques
Inventor: REYES GREGORY R
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1989-06-16
Abstract: A method of isolating genomic or RNA-derived duplex fragments which are unique to one of two fragment mixtures. The fragments in positive-source and negative-source mixtures are separately equipped with end linkers, and each mixture is amplified by successive primed-strand replications, using a single primer which is homologous to the associated linker. The second-source linker is biotinylated, and the fragments in this mixture are hybridized in molar excess with the fragments in the positive-source mixture. DNA species which are not hybridized with the biotinylated species, i.e., species that are unique to the positive-source mixture, are isolated after removal of hybridized species by affinity chromatography. Also disclosed is a method of amplifying a mixture of DNA fragments by repeated linker/primer replication.

Patent AU-4312085-A (AU)
Title: Needle clamping device
Inventor: BERGER JOHANN
IPC: D04B27/06
Filed: 1985-05-29
Abstract: A clamping device for attaching crochet needles to the needle bar of a galloon crochet machine or Raschel loom. The clamping device consists of two body pieces, a lower piece and a clamping lid, which are fastened together by means of clamps. In one embodiment the body piece holds the needle shafts, a spacer inserted into each interval between needles, and a support piece between the shafts of a needle and a receptacle in the lower piece. This results in the formation of needle beds. In the other embodiment very shallow grooves are milled opposite one another in both body pieces. These are only a fraction of half the height of the needle shafts, leaving the major part of the needle shaft's height free after clamping.
Patent AU-4503001-A (AU)
Title: Wet mateable connector
Inventor: CAIRNS JAMES
IPC: H01R13/523
Filed: 2000-10-11
Abstract: An underwater connector has mateable plug and receptacle units each containing a member having an internal chamber enclosing a contact element when the units are unmated. The members each have a resilient forward end portion with an opening communicating with the chamber, and a forward end face in sealing engagement with the corresponding end face of the other member to provide a seal when the units are mated. An actuator in each unit compresses the forward end portion of each member to close and seal the opening, and the arrangement is such that the forward end portions move away from the actuators and open as the units are mated, to permit one contact element to pass into the member of the other unit for connection to the other contact element. The forward end portions of the members are self-sealing in both the mated and unmated condition, requiring no additional seal elements.

Title: An assembly of an end-fitting and a flexible pipe
Inventor: LANGKJAER KRYSTYNA IZABELLA
IPC: F16L33/01
Filed: 1997-10-14
Abstract: An assembly of an end-fitting and a flexible pressure pipe which is of a non-bonded structure and comprises a number of layers including at least one layer (5) having a number of helically wound flat metallic tensile armour wires with end parts which, in the assembled condition, are embedded in an anchor consisting of a casting material such as epoxy which is injected into a cavity formed in the end-fitting. The flat wire end parts have at least one twist turning generally around the centerline of the wire. Said twists lock the tensile armor wires firmly in the anchor and therefore provide a greater resistance to axial tensile loads acting on the assembly than has been known before. Furthermore the joint is a simple and cheap structure and can be made in situ.
