Patent AU-2847484-A (AU)
Title: Optical sensing arrangements
Inventor: DAKIN JOHN PHILIP
IPC: G02B5/30
Filed: 1984-05-22
Abstract: Polarised light is applied for the detection of acoustic waves and/or temperature or magnetic field changes, to the input end (5) of an optical sensor (1) for transmission therethrough. A path length difference is produced between orthogonal components of the polarised light at the output end of the optical sensor (1), and path length optical compensation means (4) is optically coupled to and so oriented with respect to the input end or output end of the sensor, that the path length difference between the orthogonally polarised components transmitted through the compensator means (4) and the corresponding path length difference in the optical sensor (1) are mutually opposite, thereby reducing the noise content of an output signal derived from the arrangement and fed to polarisation analyser means (3) for producing an indication of structural changes which have occurred in the optical sensor.

Title: Improved sulfur separation system
Inventor: NAGL GARY J
IPC: B01D17/02
Filed: 1995-09-18
Abstract: A liquid separator system for separating molten sulfur from liquid redox solution or reslurry water. The system includes a vessel with a top part and a bottom part. The vessel has a larger diameter at the top part than at the bottom part, and the cross section of the vessel downwardly decreases from the top part to the bottom part of the vessel. The system also includes an inlet for introducing a redox solution or reslurry water and molten sulfur, which is denser than redox solution or reslurry water, into the vessel. An outlet near the bottom part of the vessel allows a flow of the molten sulfur from the vessel. An interface control structure senses an interface level between the redox solution or reslurry water and the molten sulfur, and the interface control structure controls the flow of molten sulfur from the outlet. The interface control structure is adjusted to optimally alter the vertical height of the interface level within the vessel so that the residence time of the molten sulfur in the vessel does not decrease as the sulfur production throughput decreases, and so that the interface area of the molten sulfur and the redox solution is reduced as the sulfur throughput decreases.

Title: Promotion of wound healing by chemically-modified tetracyclines
Inventor: RAMAMURTHY NUNGAVARAM S
IPC: A61K45/06
Filed: 1997-08-01
Abstract: A method for improving the healing response of epithelialized tissue (e.g., skin, mucosae) to acute traumatic injury is disclosed. The method includes employing a tetracycline compound, having substantially no antibacterial activity, to improve the capacity of the epithelialized tissue to heal acute wounds. Specifically, the method involves increasing the rate of collagen accumulation of the healing epithelialized tissue above that associated with wound healing in the individual. The method decreases proteolytic activity in the epithelialized tissue by means of the tetracycline compound, most commonly decreasing collagenolytic activity and/or decreasing gelatinolytic activity. Collagenase and gelatinase activity have been shown to be decreased by the method of the invention. Preferably, the method is employed to improve the wound healing capacity of human or animal subjects in whom such capacity is impaired. Also, the non-antibiotic tetracycline is preferably administered topically at the site of the wound.

Title: Traffic hot spot locating method
Inventor: VAARA TOMI
IPC: H04W24/00
Filed: 1997-10-07
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method and an arrangement for determining a hot spot of telephone traffic in a cell. The invention uses simultaneously two basic measurements of digital radio systems; timing advance and adjacent cell measurement. Timing advance informs the distance of the mobile station from the base station but not the direction. On the basis of the measured signal strengths of adjacent cells it is possible to determine a set of possible locations of the mobile station when there is information about the coverage area of individual adjacent cells. When these measurements are used simultaneously, they exclude the inaccuracies of each other and enable very accurate location determination for monitoring traffic distribution. Timing advance is utilized to determine a set of circular, base-station-centric areas and adjacent cell measurements are utilized to determine the direction of the mobile station to the base

Title: Drawing machine
Inventor: ENAMI TOSHIAKI
IPC: B21D25/02
Filed: 1989-12-22
Abstract: A drawing machine for drawing a workpiece (41) comprises first and second drawing dies (42, 43), first and second push rods (45, 46, 47, 48) and first and second junction rods (53, 54). When the first push rods (45, 46) are downwardly moved, the first junction rod (53) is pressed and moved by the first push rod (45) to press the first drawing die (42). Consequently, the first drawing die (42) forms a first-stage drawn part in the workpiece (41). When the second push rods (47, 48) are downwardly moved, the second junction rod (54) is pressed and moved by the second push rod (48), to press the second drawing die (43). Consequently, the second drawing die (43) forms a second-stage drawn part in the workpiece (42). Thus, a plurality of stages of drawn parts can be formed by the same machine. A large number of holes (51, 52) may be provided in a junction die (55) for receiving junction rods (53), to insert the junction rods (53) in only prescribed ones of the holes. When the second drawing die (43) is changed in configuration or size, the positions of the junction rods (53) are also changed in response. Thus, jigs and tools can be efficiently exchanged in a short time in order to upper die with different patterns of drawing.

Title: Yieldable anchoring element
Inventor: HERBST THOMAS
IPC: E21D21/00
Filed: 1986-01-28
Abstract: An anchoring apparatus for insertion into a borehole in a rock stratum for supporting the rock surface or wall, such as in a rock tunnel or rock excavation, includes a tension member in the form of an axially elongated steel rod with force transmission ribs on its outer surface and an anchoring element, such an anchoring nut, engageable with the rod. The anchoring element has an inside surface with inwardly extending projections and the adjacent flanks on the projections form grooves within which the force transmission ribs engage. The anchoring element is formed of a higher strength material than the rod. When a predetermined axially extending tension force acting on the rod is exceeded, relative movement takes place between the anchoring element and the rod. The flanks on the projections on the anchoring element in contact with the ribs on the rod shear off a portion of the ribs contacted. Accordingly, while the predetermined force is exceeded, the shearing action proceeds and affords a sliding anchoring effect between the rod and the anchoring element.
