Abstract: A system for alleviating phantom limb pain of a patient having a limb stump is disclosed, said system comprising: a signal generator for producing signals for electrically stimulating selected sensory nerve fibres of a severed limb nerve, the signals approximating a pattern of sensations that would be received from a normal, innervated limb before it was amputated; means to cause the signal generator to produce the signals and to deliver them to the selected sensory nerve fibres in order to alleviate phantom limb pain, the selection of the electrical stimulation signals being based on feedback from the patient; and means for transmitting the signals to the selected sensory nerve fibres. The system is arranged such that the means for transmitting the signals to the selected sensory nerve fibres includes electrodes adapted for implantation in close proximity to the severed limb nerve and wherein each electrode is in close proximity to different sensory nerve fibres of the severed limb nerve.

Patent AU-6324490-A (AU)
Title: Timing apparatus
IPC: F42D1/055
Filed: 1990-09-26
Abstract: The invention relates to a blasting apparatus (10) for activating a plurality of electrical detonators (18) after predetermined time delays. The blasting apparatus includes a plurality of remote electrical delay devices (16.1...16.6). Each device is linked to a detonator (18), and is arranged to be serially programmed with a timing signal, which originates from a central control unit (12) and which determines the time delay. A bidirectional signal harness (14), having ends which terminate at I/O ports (20,22) in the control units (12), serially links the delay devices to the control unit (12). In the event of a fault (27) or discontinuity occurring in the harness prior (14) to programming of the delay devices (16.1...16.6), the discontinuity (27) is detected and the direction of programming along the bidirectional harness (14) is reversed so that those delay devices (16.4,16.5,16.6) which, due to the break (27), cannot be programmed in the initial direction (24), are programmed with timing signals travelling along the signal line in the opposite direction (26). The invention extends to a method of activating a plurality of electrical detonators (18), as well as to the individual delay devices (16.1...16.6) forming part of the blasting apparatus (10).

Title: Process for treatment of alkaline solutions containing aromatic polymers
Inventor: ABACHERLI ALFRED
IPC: C09K23/50
Filed: 1998-03-20
Abstract: The invention proposes a process which enables separation of aromatic polymers which can be precipitated by acidification, as can be found especially in waste water from cellulose production, from an alkaline solution in a reliable manner and in pure form. To achieve good separation capacity, especially by filtration, it is proposed that the polymers be precipitated by reducing the pH at a relatively low temperature, typically between 15 and 60° C., and the dispersion be subsequently reheated until it passes into filterable form, typically between 50 and 95° C. The product separated in this way for example by filtration can be washed and can be dried at a high temperature, especially up to 110° C., without becoming black.

Title: Surgical access port
Inventor: BEANE RICHARD
IPC: A61B19/00
Filed: 1998-04-30
Abstract: A device for retracting edges of an incision in a surface to form an opening including: a flexible, tubular skirt having an upper end, a lower end, and a channel therebetween; a ring connected to the lower end of the skirt for maintaining the lower end in an open configuration and defining an exit opening to the channel; and an inflatable collar connected to the skirt and surrounding the upper end. The ring is designed to fit through the incision and remain under the surface when it is oriented parallel to the surface. The collar, when inflated, maintains the upper end in an open configuration and defines an entry opening to the channel. During use, the ring is inserted through the incision and the collar is inflated while remaining outside of the incision, thereby drawing the skirt against the edges of the incision and retracting the edges of the incision to form the opening. The retracting device can be included in a surgical access port, which further includes a flexible sleeve connected to at least one of the inflatable collar and the skirt, extending the channel from the exit opening of the skirt to an open end of the flexible sleeve distal to the skirt.

IPC: D04H1/40
Filed: 1987-05-27
Abstract: Apparatus for and methods of forming airlaid fibrous webs having a multiplicity of layers and/or discrete particles of absorbent gelling material dispersed through at least a portion of the web. The apparatus (20) is of the type which includes an airlaying means (34,46) such as a laydown drum (100,110) having a foraminous forming element; a first or primary deposition means (36) for directing a first or primary stream (54) of air-entrained fibres to the laydown drum (100); a first or primary hood (38); a dusting layer deposition means (42) for directing a dusting layer stream (56) of air-entrained fibres to the laydown drum (100) wherein the dusting layer stream is deposited onto the laydown drum (100) prior to depositing the first or primary stream (54) on the laydown drum (100) and a dusting layer hood (44). The dusting layers (1012) acts to block the passage of particles or fibres entrained in the first fibre stream (54) so as to minimize equipment plugging problems and the loss of particles or fibres through the foraminous forming element. In addition, the first vacuum chamber (126) in the laydown drum (100) spans the first hood (38) and a portion of the dusting layer hood (44) so that the dusting layer (1012) is not sheared off, damaged, or destroyed as the laydown drum (100) rotates to the position where the first fibre stream (54) is deposited over the dusting layer (1012). The method preferably comprises the steps of:   a. providing multiplicity of streams (54,56,58) of air-entrained fibres: b. directing a dusting layer stream (56) of air-entrained fibres to an airlaying means (34); c. forming a dusting layer (1012) on the airlaying means (34) from the dusting layer stream (56) of air-entrained fibres; d. directing a first stream (54) of air-entrained fibres to the airlaying means (34); e. forming a first layer (1014) over the dusting layer (1012) on the airlaying means (34) from the first stream (54) of air-entrained fibres. e
