Granted: 2013-07-11
Abstract: A lock assembly (10) adapted for use with a powered actuator. The lock assembly (10) comprising a housing (14), a first barrel part (18), a torque transmitting member (24), a first cam (12), a drive device (16) and a spring (26). The housing (14) has at least a first axially extending recess (12a) therein. The first barrel part (18) is within the first recess (12a). The torque transmitting member (24) is adapted for abutment and releasable rotational engagement with a key (46). The first cam (12) is adapted to operate a lock or latch mechanism and for rotational movement with the torque transmitting member (24). The drive device (16) is adapted for engagement with the powered actuator and releasable engagement with the torque transmitting member (24). The spring (26) biases the torque transmitting member (24) towards engagement with the drive device (16). The absence of a key (46) in the first barrel part (18) allows the torque transmitting member (24) to be moved by the spring (26) into engagement with the drive device (16), whereby pivoting movement of the drive device (16) causes corresponding pivoting movement of the cam (12). A key (46) in the first barrel part (18) engages and abuts the torque transmitting member (24) and moves the torque transmitting member (24) out of engagement with the drive device (16), whereby pivoting movement of the key (46) causes corresponding pivoting movement of the cam (12).

Title: Method and apparatus for generating standard document identifiers from content references
Inventor: HOWARD CHRISTOPHER
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2008-08-28
Granted: 2015-07-09
Abstract: The domain name of the website in which a knowledge worker is working is used to obtain a parser program that is specific to the domain. The parser program is then sent back to the browser on which the knowledge worker is viewing information and extracts content metadata from the website in which the knowledge worker is working. In one embodiment, the parser program extracts content metadata from the webpage displayed in the browser. In another embodiment, the parser program navigates from the webpage that is being displayed in the browser to another webpage that contains content metadata and extracts the content metadata from that other page. In still another embodiment, content metadata, such as a publication title, that is returned to the rights advisor website via the parser is 'normalized' to obtain a standard identifier that is, in turn, used to determine rights for the content.

Granted: 2012-06-14
Abstract: A fluid delivery skid with a pre-fill system for supplying fluid has one or more stages including a first valve and a second valve, each having an open and closed position. The stages have active and inactive states to provide a desired flow rate of fluid to an apparatus for distribution of the fluid. In an active state, fluid is received in the stage and pressurized with the first valve open and the second valve closed. Further, in an active state, fluid is released with the first valve closed and the second open. In an inactive state, at least the second valve is closed. A control unit is connected to a pump unit and controls operation of the pump to regulate the stages to supply pressure at a level determined to achieve the desired flow rate. EAS-T41470580.1

Abstract: A method and apparatus for harvesting cells from a fluid so as to preserve the integrity of the cells when used in the diagnosis of cancer. The apparatus comprises a filter adapted to collect cells of a predetermined size, a fluid pathway arranged to transmit fluid to and from the filter, a pump which provide a positive pressure which urges the fluid to the filter along the fluid pathway and a negative pressure which draws the fluid from the filter along the fluid pathway and which operates to pass the sample through the filter in a first direction to collect cells on the filter. A second pump operates to pass a cell preservative fluid through the filter in a second direction to remove cells from the filter for collection. A controller is provided to regulate the flow of fluid along the fluid pathway. The method and apparatus provides a gentle pressure gradient which minimises damage to the cells during the process of filtration and collection.
