Title: Automatic cable tension control system for a puller/tensioner machine
Inventor: DESLOGES MARC
IPC: H02G1/04
Filed: 2000-04-17
Abstract: A cable tension control system for maintaining a substantially constant tension on a cable being wound or unwound from a support spool is described. The tension control system comprises a hydraulic motor for driving a spool support shaft. A hydraulic pressure circuit is connected to the motor and has a controllable pressure relief valve for controlling the operating hydraulic pressure fed to the motor. A diameter sensing mechanism is provided for monitoring the change in the diameter of the cable wound about the spool. The diameter sensing mechanism is connected to a valve control linkage for controlling the pressure relief valve in relationship to the diameter of the cable present about the spool and thereby varying the operating hydraulic pressure of the motor to control a resistance drive force applied to the spool support shaft to control the tension on the cable being wound or unwound.

Title: Method for preparing a diafiltered stabilized blood product
Inventor: SUMMARIA LOUIS
IPC: A61K35/14
Filed: 1999-02-26
Abstract: A method using diafiltration to prepare a blood product is described. The method removes contaminating plasma proteins from whole blood or blood products. Diafiltration may be used on paraformaldehyde-fixed platelets to remove formaldehyde to undetectable levels, and to suspend the platelets into a formulation buffer suitable for subsequent treatment, such as lyophilization. The manufacturing procedure can be divided into three steps, a first diafiltration, fixation, preferably with paraformaldehyde, and a second diafiltration. In the first step, plasma proteins are removed from fresh or stored platelets or blood cells. The technique is gentle to prevent the activation and aggregation of the platelets. Fixation stabilizes the platelets to withstand freezing, lyophilization and subsequent reconstitution, and also provides a viral and bacterial reduction. The second diafiltration removes the paraformaldehyde to indetectable levels, and suspends the platelets or blood cells into a formulation buffer for subsequent lyophilization.

Title: Anti-flashover ring for a bushing insert
Inventor: JAZOWSKI ROY
IPC: H01R13/53
Filed: 1999-05-24
Abstract: The anti-flashover ring (100) of the present invention includes a substantially cylindrical body (104) having an outer surface (108) with a plurality of passageways (102) thereon. Each of the passageways (102) passes from one of the sidewalls (106, 107) through the body to the other of the sidewalls (106, 107) of the ring (100). The passageways (102) function to provide fluid communication between the atmosphere surrounding an accessory product such as a bushing insert (10) and the interior of a connector mounted thereon when the connector (12) is being pulled off the bushing insert (10). The fluid communication prevents a vacuum from forming between the connector (12) and the bushing insert (10) that can lead to a flashover between an electrical probe in the connector (12) and a ground shield (14) of the bushing insert (10). The anti-flashover ring (100) is also configured to provide an indication to the operator installing the connector (12) of when the connector (12) is fully installed on the bushing insert (10).  Such indication is provided by providing the ring with a width that is equal to length of the lip of the connector when the connector (12) is fully installed. As such, the operator installing the connector (12) continues to push on the connector (12) until the end of the lip aligns with the end of the ring (100).

Inventor: VESSAL DAVID
IPC: H04M11/06
Filed: 1994-07-21
Abstract: A power-conserving time division multiple access (TDMA) radiotelephone system is disclosed in which a cluster of subscriber stations, remote from a base station, employs a common pool of frequency-agile modems each of which digitally synthesizes, on a time slot-by-time slot basis, the different channel-identifying intermediate needed to support communications between several of the subscriber stations and the base station. Power conservation is facilitated inter alia by controlling the assignment of modems to calls, maintaining unassigned modems in a powered-down state and by controlling the number of calls using the same time slot. Delay in assigning a powered-down modem to a call is eliminated by making available to all modems the highest quality synchronization information obtained by any of the active modems.
