Patent AU-581014-B2 (AU)
Title: Weldable connecting member for connecting or joining thermoplastic pipe elements
Inventor: KUNNECKE WALTER
IPC: B29C65/00
Filed: 1985-08-12
Granted: 1989-02-09
Abstract: The connecting member has a sleeve body and a resistance heating wire embedded therein with terminals to a power supply. By heating the resistance heating wire, a welding area between the sleeve member is plasticized and welded. For checking the weld quantity, an indicator is provided, which comprises a cavity having a piston with an indicator pin movable therein in the welding area. During welding the material which becomes plastic as a result of the welding pressure is forced into the cavity, so that the indicator pin covered prior to welding is forced out through a passage and is consequently visible and tangible. As the travel of the piston is limited by a cover at the end of the cavity and the distance from the bottom of the cavity to the welding area can be selected corresponding to the desired welding pressure, the end position of the exiting indicator pin corresponds to a temperature and pressure range necessary for completely satisfactory welding.

Title: Safety coding for track circuits
Inventor: BILET CLAUDE DOMINIQUE
IPC: B61L3/24
Filed: 1979-12-20
Granted: 1983-12-22
Abstract: A process for coding track circuits allows particularly information to be transmitted to a vehicle travelling over a railway track divided into a succession of sections each equipped with a track circuit, in which each of the carrier frequencies for energizing the track circuits is frequency modulated by means of a number of modulation frequencies each representing a piece of information to be transmitted. This process includes the steps of comparing the modulation frequency obtained by demodulation of the modulated carrier frequency with another source of modulation so as to check that said modulation frequency is indeed correct, and to allow transmission of the modulated carrier frequency in the corresponding track circuit only when this check is positive. This process and device applies to high-speed railway trains.

Title: Gelatin composition for enrobing tablets
Inventor: SADEK HANI
IPC: B30B11/16
Filed: 1994-05-09
Granted: 1996-06-13
Abstract: A medicine tablet is described as a new article of manufacture. The tablet is enrobed in a gelatin coating formed by application of respective layers of elastic gelatin film to opposite sides of the tablet. The applied gelatin layers conform tightly to the tablet surface, bond securely to the tablet, and are sealed together in essentially edge-to-edge manner at a seal line which extends around the tablet at a desired place on the tablet. The gelatin layers can be colored differently from the tablet and differently from each other. A range of formulations are described for film which can be peelable from a tablet or other product core, and for films which bond to the core. A presently preferred formulation for producing tablets having a bonded tamper-evident coating comprises a water-based gelatin preparation having about 45% gelatin and about 9% plasticizer (glycerin and/or sorbitol) by weight. Method and apparatus for producing such new products are also described. Product cores can be dispensed on a self-timed basis into essentially simultaneous contact with two enrobing films which are supported on locally recessed coacting rotary dies. The cores contact the films adjacent a nip between the dies at places on the films which overlie die recesses which are oversize relative to the cores. The films deform around each core and are sealed by the dies to each other before the dies coact to cut the enrobed cores from the films. A core feeding mechanism can include an alignment device which causes the cores to have a desired orientation as they are handled by the dies.

Title: A wood delignification chemical process using ammonium magnesium bisulphite as the active reagent
Inventor: BAPTISTA JOAO MANUEL ALMEIDA O
IPC: D21C3/10
Filed: 1998-04-20
Granted: 2001-09-27
Abstract: The present innovation consists of the use of a reagent solution (FINAL COOKING ACID) where ammonium magnesium bisulphite is the active chemical. This new process is particularly useful to those industrial plants where the cellulose pulp is obtained by the magnesium acid process. The present innovation consists of the introduction of ammonium ions in the cooking acid used in such plants (initial cooking acid). The final cooking acid is obtained by the reaction of the initial cooking acid with ammonium hydroxide. Experimental results show the superiority of the present innovation over the magnesium acid bisulphite pulping process which is expressed by production of cellulosic fibres with higher mechanico-physical index values, decrease in the percentage of uncooked material, increase in wood yield and less environmental impact.

IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1996-09-03
Granted: 1999-01-21
Abstract: A signaling processor receives a first signaling message indicating a called telephone number for the call. The signaling processor processes the called telephone number from the first signaling message to determine if call validation is required. If the call validation is not required, then the signaling processor processes the called telephone number to determine routing information without the call validation. If the call validation is required, then the signaling processor determines if the call is valid, and if the call is valid, then the signaling processor processes the called telephone number to determine the routing information. The signaling processor transfers a second signaling message indicating the routing information for the call.

Granted: 1997-10-23
Abstract: A master/slave communication and control system includes a master controller and a plurality of slave subsystems, the master controller connected with the slave subsystems through first and second independent serial data buses, one of the data buses providing a working data bus, the other data bus providing a standby data bus. The master controller generates a A/B select signal applied to each of the slave subsystems to select which of the A or B data buses the slave .subsystems will use to communicate with the master controller. Each of those slave subsystems generates an independent request for communication signal, carried on an input request line to the master controller. A plurality of kill signals are generated by the master controller and applied over independent kill lines to each of the slave subsystems, whereby the master controller may send the kill signal to any one of the slave subsystems. Each of the slave subsystems can receive its respective kill signal and disconnect itself from the data buses.

Title: Method and apparatus for formatting the digital audio signal for use of the sound reproduction
Inventor: PICCALUGA PIERRE
IPC: H04R1/00
Filed: 1998-07-06
Granted: 2003-05-01
Abstract: The invention concerns a method which consists in using digital sampling of a live sound recording or of an original sound medium, which is copied then formatted into a multiple reproduction of the original sampling. In order to observe the original time base, the multiple reproduction of copies, leads to the multiple reproduction of the sampling speed of the new digital signal. The quantization parameter can be identical to the original, or be subjected to value scaling, or be in reciprocal value. An apparatus formatting digital audio signal acquires a reference sampling from a digital decoder, then multiplies its data by adjustable independent samplers managed by a common clock. A relay programs the regular and cyclical activities of the samplers, determining a new digital sound signal. Said signal can be smoothed for analog use by fragile transducers. This formatting process adapted for acoustic transducers, can be used for recording and as audio signal software for transferring sound data.

Title: Sustained-release liposomal anesthetic compositions
Inventor: KIM SINIL
IPC: A61K31/40
Filed: 1998-09-18
Granted: 2001-07-12
Abstract: The invention provides a method for obtaining local anesthetics encapsulated in liposomes, such as multivesicular liposomes, with high encapsulation efficiency and slow release  in vivo.  When the encapsulated anesthetic is administered as a single intracutaneous dose, the duration of anesthesia and half-life of the drug at the local injection site is increased as compared to injection of unencapsulated anesthetic. The maximum tolerated dose of the encapsulated anesthetic is also markedly increased in the liposomal formulation over injection of unencapsulated anesthetic. These results show that the liposomal formulation of local anesthetic is useful for sustained local infiltration and nerve block anesthesia.
