Inventor: LUDOLPH JUERGEN
IPC: C07C15/00
Filed: 1997-07-30
Abstract: Process for the recovery of pure hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbon feed mixture, more particularly, a high aromatics content hydrocarbon feed mixture, by extractive distillation in an extractive distillation column.  A first solvent feed for a first sub-flow of a selective solvent is provided between the top part of the column and the bottom part thereof.  The selective solvent used is an N-substituted morpholine.  Substantially non-aromatics are withdrawn as the raffinate from the head of the extractive distillation column and substantially aromatics and selective solvent are withdrawn as the extract from the sump of the extractive distillation column.  A second sub-flow of the selective solvent is introduced via a second solvent feed in the top part of the column above the first solvent feed.  The quantity of solvent supplied with the second sub-flow constitutes less than 50% of the total quantity of solvent.  A high yield of pure aromatics and non-aromatics is achieved.  Temperature and solvent flow fluctuations have substantially no effect on the aromatics content in the column head.

Abstract: On a découvert que les glucocorticoïdes prolongent le blocage nerveux induit par les anesthésiants locaux issus de systèmes d'administration locale tels que les microsphères. Le blocage se prolonge proportionnellement à la puissance des glucocorticoïdes. On utilise de préférence des anesthésiants locaux qui soulagent la douleur localement ou provoquent un engourdissement, et en particulier les produits suivants: bupivacaïne, dibucaïne, etidocaïne et tétracaïne, de préférence en base libre de l'anesthésiant local. Les glucocorticoïdes préférés sont les suivants: dexaméthasone, méthylprednisolone, bétaméthasone et hydrocortisone. On utilise de préférence des polymers synthétiques pour la formation des microparticules en vue de l'administration locale des anesthésiants et des glucocorticoïdes. Il est préférable d'incorporer les glucocorticoïdes à la matrice polymérique ou de les administrer par l'intermédiaire des microsphéres. Celles-ci sont injectées à l'endroit où il est prévu de libérer les anesthésiants. On peut effectuer cette opération au moment d'une intervention chirurgicale ou bien d'une irrigation ou d'une perfusion de blessure.

Patent CA-2228499-A1 (CA)
Title: Optical measurement of marine conditions
Inventor: HERMAN ALEX W
IPC: G01N15/02
Filed: 1998-02-02
Abstract: An apparatus for optically measuring marine conditions comprising a tunnel defining a sampling volume for water, a laser diode line generator for generating a beam of light and reflector means for directing the beam of light across the sampling volume through the water in a direction substantially perpendicular to the direction of flow of the water, and a plurality of photo-sensor elements of similar size disposed for receiving and measuring the intensity of the light beam after passage through the water. The effective size of each photo-sensor element (about 1 mm 2) is greater than the smallest particle to be detected and smaller than the largest organism to be measure. The photo-sensor elements generate an output signal providing an average level representative of turbidity of the water sample, and an rapidly changing attenuated level caused by passage of an organism or particle. Measuring the attenuation of the output signal caused by passage of a particle or organism provides a measure of the size of the particle or organism. By measuring the number of adjacent photo-sensor elements having an attenuated level caused by occlusion by an organism larger than a single photo-sensor element, the transverse size of an organism can be determined. Measurement of the transit time of an attenuated level, indicates the longitudinal size of an organism, or the rate of passage of a particle four providing a measure of the flow rate through the tunnel.  Combining transverse and longitudinal size data provides a shape outline of the organism.

Title: Gas turbine shroud and platform seal system
Inventor: ITO EISAKU
IPC: F01D11/00
Filed: 1998-02-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a gas turbine shroud and platform seal system,  in which a flowing-out of a sealing air does not disturb a combustion gas flow, and an aerodynamic loss is removed.  A leaking air (60) leaks from between a platform (2) of moving blade (1) and an inside shroud (12) in a stationary blade (11),  however,  in a front of the moving blade (1),  the leaking air (60) flows in an S-shaped manner within a space (8, 17) by a projecting end portion (12b) of the shroud, a honeycomb seal (14) and a projecting portion (4) of the platform, and flows out to the same flow direction as thalt of a combustion gas (50) along a surface of the platform (2).  At a rear of the moving blade (1), the leaking air (60) flows in an S-shaped manner within a space (6, 9) by a projecting end portion (2b) of the platform,  a projecting end portion (12b) of the shroud, a honeycomb seal (13) and a seal plate (3) and flows to the same flow direction as that of the combustion gas (50) along a surface of the shroud (12).  Thus,  the air (60) flows in the same direction as that of the combustion gas (50),  and a flow loss is removed,  the air is hard to be leaked,  and a cooling effect of the platform and the shroud is increased by a film cooling effect.

Patent CA-2230869-A1 (CA)
Inventor: WARREN WALTER BRUCE
IPC: G08G1/0967
Filed: 1996-08-28
Abstract: A system for transmitting messages, such as safety hazard warning messages, to vehicles causes alerts to be generated in conventional radar detectors and more detailed messages to be provided to drivers with message capable radar receivers. The transmitted radar signal is modulated in frequency or phase or swept in frequency in different directions or at different rates to define the logical state of each bit of the message. A continuous wave (CW) maker signal may also be transmitted to assure detection by a conventional police radar detector and to allow a receiver capable of decoding messages to make adjustments that center an intermediate frequency (IF) generated from the received signal in the receiver IF passband. A message capable receiver decodes the modulated signal to communicate to the vehicle operator the contents of the transmitted message or a stored message corresponding to a transmitted code. The signal modulation is such that conventional radar detectors do not reject the signal but cause an alert to be generated, indicating to the driver the need to reduce vehicle speed to accommodate upcoming road conditions or obstacles.

Title: Operator directed routing of soft permanent virtual circuits in a connection-orientated network
Inventor: MCALLISTER SHAWN
IPC: H04L45/28
Filed: 1998-05-28
Abstract: An operator-directed soft-permanent virtual circuit (ODR SPVC) is established by manually provisioning a preferred path for the connection, including a source node, destination node, and intermediate nodes or subnetworks therebetween.  The source network creates an SPVC Call Setup message which is signalled along the preferred path, whereby the intermediate nodes along the preferred path establish the bearer channel cross-sections. The operator also specifies a re-routing scheme for the ODR  SPVC in the event the connection setup is blocked or the connection becomes inoperative.  The re-routing scheme includes one of (a) the preferred path only; (b) a manually provisioned alternate path; and (c) any path. The ODR SPVC provides the benefits of a permanent virtual circuit (PVC) in terms of the ability to consciously route a connection with the benefits of a soft permanent virtual circuit (SPVC) in terms of the capability to efficiently re-route connections by the network as opposed to a central management authority.

Title: Electro-optical imaging detector array with two axis image motion compensation
Inventor: PFISTER WILLIAM R
IPC: H04N5/335
Filed: 1997-04-09
Abstract: An electro-optical imaging array (32) having pixels arranged in rows and columns electronically compensates for image motion in the plane of the array regardless of whether the motion vector is in the row direction, the column direction, or in a diagonal direction, i.e., in some vector combination of row and column directions. In an aerial reconnaissance application, the image motion may be due to rotation of the aircraft (22) about roll (R), pitch (PI) and/or yaw (Y) angles in addition to forward velocity (V) of the aircraft (22). The image motion compensation is achieved with no moving parts and does not require a stabilized platform. The pixel information in the array (32) is transferred in the row and column direction in a step-wise fashion in the row and column directions at a rate and direction substantially matching the image motion.
