Inventor: DERLETH HORST
IPC: H01R4/48
Filed: 2003-07-17
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a conductive contact part (10) for a detachable electric plug-in connection. Said method provides a contact element (20) comprising a bushing part (23), sections of which contain longitudinal slits and which has ribs (26) distributed around its periphery. A  sleeve part (30), which can surround the bushing part (23) and cover the ribs (26), comprises two opposing end faces (31, 32). The sleeve part (30) is placed and positioned in an approximately coaxial manner in relation to the bushing part (23), in such a way that it covers the ribs, the positioned sleeve part (30) being locked by one of its two faces (31, 32) on the bushing part (23). The bushing part (23) is elastically twisted about its central axis (13), in such a way that the ribs (26) arc towards said central axis (13) and the other face (32, 31) of the sleeve part (30) is locked on the bushing part (23) that is held in a twisted position against the elastic restoring force of the ribs (26). A contact part (10), designed for mass-production, with defined elastic properties of the ribs (26) can thus be produced in a reproducible manner (10).

Title: Process for the production of alkylbenzene
Inventor: POHL STEPHEN L
IPC: C07C6/12
Filed: 2004-02-24
Abstract: A process for the production of alkylbenzene includes the steps of introducing benzene and an olefin feed into a first alkylation reaction zone in the presence of a first alkylation catalyst under first alkylation reaction conditions to produce alkylbenzene and a vapor containing unconverted olefin;  absorbing the unconverted olefin into an aromatic stream containing benzene and alkylbenzene; and, introducing the aromatic stream containing absorbed olefin into a second alkylation reaction zone containing a second alkylation catalyst under second alkylation reaction conditions to convert the absorbed olefin and at least some of the benzene of the aromatic stream to alkylbenzene. The process is particularly advantageous for the alkylation of benzene with ethylene to produce ethylbenzene. About 99.9 % conversion of ethylene is achieved overall, with a substantial reduction in the required catalyst.

Title: A method of using a swelling agent to prevent a cement slurry from being lost to a subterranean formation
Inventor: REDDY B RAGHAVA
IPC: E21B33/14
Filed: 2004-02-19
Abstract: Methods of cementing in a subterranean formation include passing a swelling agent to a permeable zone in a subterranean formation. The swelling agent is combined with a carrier fluid before being passed to the permeable zone. Upon contacting an aqueous fluid, the swelling agent swells in the permeable zone.  The aqueous fluid may already be present in the subterranean formation, or alternatively, it may be introduced to the subterranean formation after passing the swelling agent into the subterranean formation. The swelling agent substantially inhibits a cement slurry subsequently pumped into the subterranean formation from passing through the permeable zone. The cement slurry therefore continues flowing down through the casing and up through the annulus where it sets and forms a strong cement column.

Title: Apparatus for monitoring intra-abdominal pressure
Inventor: CHRISTENSEN MARK C
IPC: A61B5/03
Filed: 2004-03-01
Abstract: An improved apparatus for monitoring the intra-abdominal pressure of a hospitalized patient includes a urinary catheter connected to a urine valve having selectable communication positions between a discharge end of the urinary catheter and either a drain or a fluid source. Preferably, the urine valve has a housing adapted to resist patient discomfort from leg-valve contact. One operable protective housing may be embodied as a separate tray component. Plumbing structure desirably maintains fluid supply and drain conduits in a substantially parallel arrangement to assist routing those conduits between a patient~s legs. When the urine valve is oriented for communication to the fluid source, an infusion pump may be used to introduce a known quantity of fluid through the urine valve and into the patient~s bladder where the fluid~s pressure can be measured. Desirably, a double check valve is included in a fluid supply path and arranged to permit repetitive operation of a syringe to inject a bolus of fluid into the patient~s bladder. Subsequent to making a pressure measurement, the urine valve is returned to the bladder draining position.

Abstract: A method of delivering a therapeutic agent to a targeted location within a patient efficiently delivers the agent with a reduced systemic effect. The method includes providing a non-perforated delivery device (10) having at least one wall (12) through which a fluid at first fluid pressure can pass through. The non-perforated delivery device (10) is positioned to provide a radial fluid force against the targeted location. The fluid, including at least one therapeutic agent, is supplied to the therapeutic agent delivery device (10) at the first fluid pressure. The fluid passes through the at least one wall (12) of the delivery device (10) to create a semi-confined space external to the delivery device (10) at a second fluid pressure. The delivery device (10) applies the radial fluid force against the semi-confined space and the fluid disposed therein while simultaneously facilitating the fluid passing through the delivery device (10) to maintain the second fluid pressure in the semi-confined space at the targeted location. The fluid contains at least one therapeutic agent that is distributed to the targeted location in a substantially uniform distribution in an amount sufficient to create a therapeutic effect modulatable by the fluid pressure and a dwell time.
