Patent EP-0390723-A3 (EP)
Inventor: CHEUNG TAK MAN
IPC: C08J9/12
Filed: 1990-03-20
Abstract: This invention relates to a process for making a 
lightweight article which comprises: (1) feeding a 
thermoplastic resin composition into an extruder, 
wherein the thermoplastic resin composition is 
comprised of (a) from about 94 to about 99 weight 
percent polyethylene terephthalate, and (b) from about 
1 to about 6 weight percent of at least one polyolefin; 
(2) mixing an inert gas into the thermoplastic resin 
composition in the extruder while the thermoplastic 
resin composition is in the molten state; (3) extruding 
the thermoplastic resin composition containing the 
inert gas through a sheet forming die to produce a 
substantially amorphous cellular sheet which contains a 
sufficient amount of inert gas cells to provide the 
cellular sheet with a density which is within the range 
of about 0.4 to about 1.25; and (4) thermoforming the 
cellular sheet in a heated mold to produce the 
lightweight article. Dual-ovenable trays and other 
types of food containers can be made utilizing the 
process of this invention. It is advantageous to 
utilize the process of this invention in making such 
articles because they are lightweight and can be made 
utilizing less polymeric materials.

Title: A bifunctional cosmid useful for cloning actinomycete dna
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 1991-06-26
Abstract: The present invention relates to novel and useful cosmids for cloning and expressing the isolated DNA gene cluster which directs the synthesis of tetracycline and chlortetracycline, in a heterologous host such as Streptomyces lividans. The claimed plasmids (cosmids) are isolated by screening a cosmid library, constructed in Escherichia coli, for the expression of tetracycline resistance in S. lividans. Plasmids LP<2>127 and LP<2>128 are recovered from such tetracycline-resistant S. lividans isolates shown by HPLC analysis of agar and broth fermentations to direct the synthesis of tetracycline and chlortetracycline.

Title: Preparation process of a natural protein sweetener
Inventor: URIACH-MARSAL JUAN
IPC: A23L27/24
Filed: 1995-04-21
Abstract: Thaumatin II or thaumatin I can be obtained through the expression, not of their natural genes, but of artificial, synthetic and substantially optimized genes following specific rules. Preferably, this expression is carried out in filamentous fungi, especially GRAS fungi and particularly the species Penicillium roquefortii, Aspergillus niger and the awamori variant of Aspergillus niger. Preparing substantially optimized artificial genes for filamentous fungi, performed here for the first time in the case of thaumatin, allows for high protein expression, making the process useful for industrial production of this valuable sweetener. Thaumatins may be obtained extracellularly by using a plasmid with a secretion signal, and also intracellularly. The latter method can be used in animal feed without prior separation from the fungal mycelium.

connection between the stator winding leads (30) and
electric contacts (52) located on the card (50) proximate
to an opening (51) obtained in the card at said channels

IPC: H04L9/14
Filed: 1995-01-24
Abstract: A secure network data communication technique that allows the
designation of selected network nodes to share encryption keys
with other selected network nodes. A message originating node
determines nodes along a message route with which it shares
encryption keys. One of these keys is selected and a message is
encrypted with the key. The identity of the originating node and
the decrypting node that also knows the selected key is added to
the encrypted message in clear form. The decrypting node
receives the message, recognizes its identity in the message and
decrypts the message using the key shared with the originating
node. If it is also not the destination node, it repeats the
process of selecting a new encrypting node with which it shares
a key, re-encrypting and transmitting re-encrypted message toward
the destination.

Title: Extrusion product with decorative enhancement and process of making the same

Abstract: A solid, elongated member of predetermined profile having a solid skin (90, 92, 94) on a portion of its surface and a decorative enhancement (86, 88) integrally formed on another portion is formed by compressing extrudable foam material by passing it through an orifice having a predetermined profile at one end, hardening a first portion of its surface during compression to form the solid skin, and embossing a second portion of its surface following compression by moving a heated embossing wheel over its profile to provide the decorative enhancement before hardening the material.
Patent EP-0738097-A3 (EP)
Inventor: GRIEFFER ALLAN DAVID
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1996-03-20
Abstract: In a communication network having multiple transmission channels,
digital data comprising messages sufficiently short to be treated as packet
messages are not sent over the network channels ordinarily used for message
transmission, but instead are sent over network channels typically used for
out-of-band signaling. Each data message is prepared and its length is
checked for suitability as a message packet. If the data message can be
packaged as a message packet, it is sent over the flat rate network channel.
If the message cannot be packaged as a message packet, then it is sent
according to conventional message transmission techniques for the network.
The channel selection scheme can be implemented in a system that utilizes
the Integrated Services Data Network (ISDN), such that data messages are
checked to determine if they can be sent over the ISDN D channel rather than
over the more conventionally used ISDN B channel.

Abstract: In a magnetic reproduction apparatus having an MR
head, electromigration occurring when a sense current is
supplied to the MR head is suppressed, and the service
life and reliability of the magnetic reproduction
apparatus are improved. Information magnetically recorded
on at least one recording medium is read by supplying a
sense current to the MR head opposed to the record
surface of the recording medium using a current supply
circuit, and then decoded by a signal decoder. In the
magnetic reproduction apparatus, an MR head information
judgment circuit judges whether or not information to be
read out from the recording medium by the MR head is
needed. Only when the information to be read out by the
MR head is needed, does a current supply control circuit
allow the current supply circuit to supply the sense
current to the MR head. The sense current can be
controlled by turning on or off an on-off operation
circuit. Owing to this configuration, electromigration
can be suppressed and the service life and reliability of
the apparatus can be improved.

Abstract: A modem that operates selectively in the voice-band
frequency band and at higher frequency bands is provided.
This modem supports multiple line codes, like DMT and CAP. 
     The modem uses a Digital Signal Processor (DSP), so
that different existing ADSL line codes, such as Discrete
MultiTone (DMT) and Carrierless AM/PM (CAP), can be
implemented on the same hardware platform. The modem
negotiates in real-time, for a desired line transmission
rate to accommodate line condition and service-cost
requirement. 
     The line code and rate negotiation process may be
implemented at the beginning of each communication session
through the exchange of tones between the modems. A four-step
MDSL modem initialization process is provided for line
code and rate compatibility. 
     A new synchronization startup procedure for CAP based
MDSL modems is provided. The handshake protocol and
receiver algorithm allow reliable modem synchronization
over severely amplitude distorted channels such as standard
telephone twisted-pair wire. The algorithm makes use of a
short length sequence to train a synchronizing equalizer at
the receiver. After training to this sequence, a matched
filter or correlator is used to detect the inverted sync
sequence. The detection of the inverted sequence signals
the start of the normal reference training of the CAP
demodulation equalizers. 
     The MDSL line connection management process provides a
simple, efficient, and flexible interface to manage the
line connection between MDSL-C (MDSL in Central Office
site) and MDSL-R (MDSL in resident site) in the
telecommunication Wide Area Networking environment. An
internal state machine in an MDSL modem records and 
monitors the line status and notifies the state change to
the other MDSL and also the host processor. The protocol
used for exchanging line connection management messages is
a simplified Link Control Protocol (LCP) for MDSL.
