Granted: 1991-01-10
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP88/00729 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 19, 1989 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 19, 1989 PCT Filed Aug. 16, 1988 PCT Pub. No. WO89/02391 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 23, 1989.The appliance for assisting a swimmer in swimming, floating and being towed by a boat, includes a substantially board-shaped floating body having a leading edge and a trailing edge each of which have a V-shaped cross section. The floating body has a glass panel with a transverse reinforcing web mounted centrally therein so that the swimmer can observe through the floating body. The floating body has two longitudinal sides each having a handle in the shape of an arcuate protrusion projecting therefrom. Each of the handles is located in the middle of its longitudinal side, and the longitudinal sides are divided by a central transverse axis, each of the handles having a through-going handle opening positioned between the transverse axis and the leading edge. Fastening means, such as screws, are provided on each handle and a tow rope is attached to each of the fastening means by one of its two ends. The middle portion of the rope is attachable to the boat, preferably by a trailing rope from the boat, so that the swimmer may be towed by the boat while executing lateral gliding motions or diving below the water's surface.

Title: Self-assembled taxo-diterpenoid nanostructures
Inventor: NICOLAOU K C
IPC: C07D411/14
Filed: 1995-01-11
Granted: 1999-01-14
Abstract: Onium salts of taxo-diterpenoid-Cn,2-O-aza-arenes form water soluble self-assembling nanostructures above a critical aggregation concentration. The onium salt of aza-arene includes a delocalized charge which renders derivatized taxo-diterpenoids amphoteric, enhances their solubility in water, and promotes self-assembly of water soluble nanostructures, e.g., helical fibular structures and spherical micellular structures. These same onium salts of taxo-diterpenoid-Cn,2-O-aza-arenes are employed as water soluble prodrugs. For example, taxol-2'-methylpyridinium tosylate (MPT) is characterized by an elevated aqueous solubility, rapid activation by serum protein, good stability in most other aqueous solutions, formation of a protein:taxol intermediate and good retention within the circulatory system. The toxicity of the activated form is comparable or greater than underivatized taxol. Furthermore, taxol-2'-MPT can be synthesized by a simple one step reaction between taxol and 2-fluoro-1-MPT. The invention is applicable to taxol and taxol memetics having hydroxyls that are reactive with onium salts of 2-halogenated-aza-arenes. For example, taxol, C-2 substituted taxol and Taxotere each have reactive hydroxyls at the 2' and 7 positions. The invention is also applicable to a wide array of 2-halogenated-aza-arenes.

Title: Method for extinguishing fires from an aircraft and related device
Inventor: ZUEV JURY VLADIMIROVICH
IPC: A62C3/02
Filed: 1999-02-01
Granted: 2002-10-10
Abstract: The present invention comprises supplying a liquid onto the source of a fire from an aircraft (7), wherein said liquid is supplied in the form of gas-droplet stream (8) obtained by dispersion in a gas flow and by acceleration of the dual-phase flow in a gas-dynamics nozzle (4). The pressure at the inlet of the nozzle (4) as well as the relative concentration of liquid in the dual-phase flow are selected according to conditions enabling the formation of a dual-phase low-dispersion and high-speed flow which has a high extinguishing-substance concentration and remaining stable when submitted to interference. The fire-extinguishing device of the present invention comprises a liquid supply system (1), a gas supply system (2), a mixing chamber (3) for the gas and the liquid as well as a gas-dynamics nozzle (4), wherein all these members are arranged onboard an aircraft (7). The gas-dynamics nozzle supplies the liquid towards the area of the fire source and is connected to a vessel through a duct. The mixing chamber (3) is further provided with a liquid dispersion system. <IMAGE>

Title: Food processing apparatus including magnetic drive
Inventor: KARKOS JOHN F JR
IPC: A47J43/08
Filed: 2000-01-11
Granted: 2003-10-16
Abstract: A magnetic induction drive for a rotatable driven member in a sealed housing, in particular, a shaft-mounted blade in a blender cup or a shaft-mounted blade in an ice shaver, uses a comparatively thin circular drive plate of a magnetizable material with circumferentially arrayed poles enclosed within a housing secured to a drive shaft. A brushless d.c. motor in a base separate from the housing has a rotor formed as an array of pie-shaped permanent magnet regions that interact with an electronically controlled, rotating electromagnetic field produced by a ring of stator coils. A second such permanent magnet is coupled to rotate coaxially and in unison with the rotor, with poles of opposite polarity aligned and adjacent one another. A steel disc is sandwiched between and bonded to the rotor and the second permanent magnet. The magnetic field (lines of flux) of the second magnet extends axially away from the rotor to induce magnetic poles of opposite polarity in the drive plate. This second magnet-to-plate magnetic coupling operates across a closely-spaced gap that includes the bottom wall of the base, the upper wall of the housing, and air gaps between these walls, and the plate and the second magnet. A gear train assembly can be coupled to the drive shaft to increase or decrease the amount of torque transmitted from the drive plate to the driven member.

Title: Predistortion generator coupled with an RF amplifier
Inventor: ZHOU SHOTUNG
IPC: H03F1/32
Filed: 2000-01-13
Granted: 2004-02-19
Abstract: An in-line distortion generator is coupled to an RF amplifier on a single PC board for producing an output signal of useful amplitude but with low composite triple beat and cross modulation distortions. The backplane under the section of the PC board upon which the distortion circuit resides is removed and the portion of the heat sink under the removed portion of the backplane is also removed. This eliminates any parasitic capacitances that could degrade the performance of the RF amplifier, thereby making the distortion circuit transparent to the RF amplifier. Furthermore, the layout of the predistortion circuitry has been specifically designed to enhance the performance of the circuitry without inducing any negative operating characteristics on the associated RF amplifier.

Date Nov. 30, 1989.Containers of explosive liquids can be prevented from exploding by filling the containers with meshes made from metal foil which occupies a negligible fraction of the volume of the container although it must completely fill the container. In order to refill the containers, the rib mesh (1) must consist of sufficiently small, spherical bodies (24). The invention also deals with the production of these filling bodies (24) from aluminum strip expanded into a mesh. The aluminum strip is first passed through a calibration opening (4) which compacts it into a bar (2) of circular cross-section which is then compacted perpendicularly to its length and continuously transported in the longitudinal direction as it is being squeezed. The front piece of the bar is then detached and pressed in a mould with a hemispherical bottom (21) by a die with the same inner contour to form a spherical filling body.
