Title: Control mechanism for an endoscope
Inventor: PESZYNSKI MICHAEL
IPC: A61B1/005
Filed: 2003-09-08
Abstract: Control mechanism (10) for an endoscope including first and second independently rotatable control knobs (18,20), an inner pinion shaft (22) fixed to the first control knob (18), an outer pinion shaft (28) fixed to the second control knob (20) and coaxial with the inner shaft (22) and an intermediate shaft (34) arranged at least partially inside of the outer shaft (28) and at least partially around the inner shaft (22).

Title: Personal Care Compositions with Portable Packs
Inventor: GRAYSON FRANCIS WILLIAM
IPC: A61K8/00
Filed: 2004-01-28
Abstract: Mixing a controlled amount of agar with regular oral, dental or skin hygiene compositions allows manufacture of homogenous, semi-solid single-use lumps or beads (200). Agar or analogous structural gelling agents confer sufficient rigidity and a sufficiently high melting point for storage, yet allow disruption of the bead on the skin or in the mouth without residues.

Shape, colour and flavour variations (124C) motivate children towards dental care.
Patent AU-2004203791-A1 (AU)
Title: Hazard detector
Inventor: BARRETT ROGER
IPC: G08B29/14
Filed: 2004-01-05
Abstract: A hazard detector has an electronic circuit with a start-up program for causing emission of a local indicator signal, such as a flashing signal from a LED, if power and ground terminals of the detector are connected with proper orientation, i.e. polarity, to power and ground lines of a power supply. Through this means, a person installing the hazard detector can tell immediately after connection if the detector has been connected with proper orientation, and avoids the need for introducing a hazard such as heat or smoke to test the operation of the detector. A variation uses a more sophisticated program that disables, during a test mode, complex filtering algorithms that are used by detectors to block false alarm signals; if such filtering is not disabled, impedes normal testing of the detectors.

Title: Method and apparatus optimizing receipt of call/broadcast paging messages by self-powered wireless communications devices
Inventor: SUBRAHMANYA PARVATHANATHAN
IPC: H04W4/00
Filed: 2005-01-11
Abstract: A wireless communications network (120) responds to each incoming call placed to a wireless communications device (134) by transmitting a call-paging message (418) within a corresponding partition of a digital radio frame of prescribed format. Responsive to each occurrence of a broadcast event (404), the network transmits (414) a repeating broadcast-paging message announcing the availability of broadcast content from the network. The broadcast-paging message is transmitted multiple times within each digital radio frame. Another sequence (500) describes WCD operation in this network. Responsive to wakcup (502) from sleep, the WCD detects (509) received signal quality. The WCD also receives (510) scheduled network transmission of a call-paging message and a number of instances (at least one) of a repeating network transmitted broadcast-paging message that occurs multiple times for each scheduled transmission of the call-paging message. This number varies inversely with the detected signal quality.

Title: Method for producing a cast steel strip
Inventor: ZAHEDI MICHAEL
IPC: B22D11/06
Filed: 2005-09-20
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a cast steel strip of preferably hot crack-sensitive or hot-brittle steel quality by means of a strip casting plant and to a strip casting plant for carrying out this method. In this case, steel melt is conducted into a melt space formed by two casting rolls and two sideplates, slab shells are formed in the melt space on cooled surface areas of the casting rolls and are brought together in the strip forming cross section between the casting rolls to form an at least partly solidified steel strip, the cast steel strip is then guided along the surface area of one of the two casting rolls from a vertical casting direction into an essentially horizontal transport direction, and the cast steel strip is supplied essentially horizontally on a transport device to a strip winding device and is wound there into a coil. In order in this case to minimize susceptibility to crack formation, the cast steel strip, during its transport movement along the surface area of one of the two casting rolls, is guided in a transport channel without the application of deformation forces influencing the strip thickness and is subjected in this region to strip cooling of less than 200 K/s.
