Des raccords sont intégrés dans les première et seconde couches de béton, de façon à lier les deux couches. Après le durcissement des première et seconde couches de béton, l'agrégat, les feuilles de support ou les sacs d'air sont enlevés, afin de créer de l'espace entre les couches de béton. Les panneaux peuvent être assemblés dans une structure de paroi. Une couche de béton intermédiaire peut être coulée dans l'espace entre les panneaux de paroi, de façon que les panneaux définissent la forme de la couche de béton intermédiaire et fassent partie intégrante de la structure de paroi. La structure de paroi peut s'étendre au-dessous ou au-dessus du sol et peut être multi-étagée. Les bords des panneaux de paroi peuvent être plats, pour un joint d'about, ou profilés, pour s'interverrouiller lorsqu'ils sont assemblés dans la structure de paroi. Des encoches peuvent être ménagées sur le bord supérieur des panneaux de paroi, afin de recevoir des structures de plancher.

Inventor: VERDINI ANTONIO
IPC: A61K47/48
Filed: 2000-07-21
Abstract: The invention describes new polypeptide dendrimers and processes for the synthesis of the same. The polypeptide dendrimers of the invention have a structure which consists of a multifunctional core moiety from which highly branched polypeptide chains, formed by short peptide branching units, extend radially outwards. The outermost branches surround a lower density space with hollows and channels into which bioactive substances employed in diagnosis and therapy can be entrapped or covalently linked. For these properties the said polypeptide dendrimers are particularly useful in a number of areas in biology and medicine as carriers for the delivery of bioactive substances, including drugs, or as carriers of bacterial, viral and parasite antigens, gene-therapy compounds and diagnostic imaging contrast agents.

IPC: A47L9/24
Filed: 2002-04-30
Abstract: A suction hose assembly for an upright type vacuum cleaner including a flexible hose connected to an air inlet of a cleaner body with one end thereof, a suction pipe connected to the other end of the flexible hose with one end thereof and connected to an extension hose of the suction brush with the other end thereof, and a connection portion for movably connecting the suction pipe to the flexible hose so that the suction pipe can rotate relative to the flexible hose in a rotational direction. The connection portion includes a pair of connection protrusions preferably formed on one end of either the suction pipe or flexible hose, and spaced from each other by a predetermined distance, a pair of connection grooves formed on one end of whichever the flexible hose or suction pipe that the connection protrusions are not formed on, to receive the pair of connection protrusions, and at least one guide protrusion provided between a contact surface defined between the connection protrusions and a contact surface defined between the connection grooves, to reduce area of contact defined between the contact surfaces. Since the suction pipe and the flexible hose are rotatably connected with the other while presenting minimum relative contact due to the guide protrusions, thereby decreasing the frictional resistance during the rotation of the suction pipe relative to the flexible hose. As a result, the suction pipe rotates more smoothly, and a user can more easily use the cleaner with added convenience.

Inventor: JOHNSON BUD T J
IPC: F03D3/00
Filed: 2002-05-17
Abstract: This invention relates to new and useful improvements in wind turbines, to achieve significant gains in efficiency over present state of the act. With intake enhancement, aperture control and positive displacement, this invention will have higher energy output than present state of the art systems. Aperture control allows for useful power output from very low to exceedingly high wind speeds, and positive displacement provides higher levels of torque at lowest wind speed. The end result is that rather than producing useful power output as little as 30% of the time, as experienced with present systems, this invention should be able to double that performance quite easily.
