Title: Inter-vertebral implant
Inventor: COTTLE WILLIAM
IPC: A61F2/46
Filed: 1996-10-03
Granted: 2004-03-09
Abstract: The inter-vertebral implant consists of a frame-like cage enclosing a space, with a top and bottom surface, two side surfaces, a front and a rear wall. The top and bottom surfaces have a plurality of perforations, the total area of which amounts to 40 to 55 % of the total area of said surfaces. The individual area of a single perforation is at most 20 % of the total area of the top and bottom surfaces. The ratio VH/VK between the volume VH of the space and the total volume VK of the cage is in the range from 70 to 90 %. The cage is substantially wedge-shaped with top and bottom surfaces diverging towards the front wall. This gives the advantage that, owing to the large bone bearing area of the top and bottom surfaces, the implant is prevented from sinking into the end plates of the body of the vertebra.

Title: Node device and scheme for sharing common virtual connection identifier between end-nodes
Inventor: KATSUBE YASUHIRO
IPC: H04L12/70
Filed: 1998-03-10
Granted: 2002-03-05
Abstract: A scheme for sharing a common virtual connection identifier between end-nodes, which enable sharing of a common identifier of a sufficient information length at both end-nodes of a virtual connection. In this scheme, the first message containing a first identifier for provisionally identifying a virtual connection commonly between neighboring nodes is exchanged between neighboring nodes, at a time of setting up the virtual connection. Then, the second message containing a second identifier having a larger information size than the first identifier for formally identifying the virtual connection commonly between neighboring nodes, in a form that enables establishing of a correspondence between the first identifier and the second identifier, is exchanged between neighboring nodes through another virtual connection different from the virtual connection to be set up. The correspondence between the first identifier and the second identifier is managed at each node according to the first message and the second message so as to share the second identifier between neighboring nodes.

Granted: 2001-12-18
Abstract: The capsules or other products (1) are fed by suitable means (4, 5, 10, 11, 12, 112, 13) in single file and taken up one at a time by a tangential wheel (16) which is fitted with reference teeth (18), with each tooth supporting one product, and has suction holes (19) so as to retain the said products. When the products reach or are about to reach a position above suitably shaped associated weighing heads (24), the suction that holds them against the wheel is cut off and the said products fall, positioning themselves correctly on the said heads, aided in part by the halting action exerted by the teeth in front. The products deposited on the heads are weighed and are then discharged by the pushing action of the wheel (16) teeth (18) which place the next product on the said heads. A chute (25) collects the products ejected from the heads and a deflection plate (26), controlled by the central processing and control system (32), separates products of the correct weight from those to be rejected. Several apparatus of this type are placed next to each other so as to obtain high production rates.

Title: Transparent functional membrane containing functional ultrafine particles, transparent functional film, and process for producing the same
Inventor: YOSHIHARA TOSHIO
IPC: G02B1/18
Filed: 1994-12-02
Granted: 2000-11-07
Abstract: The present invention provides a transparent functional film comprising a transparent plastic substrate film and a hard coat layer provided thereon, wherein functional ultrafine particles are present in a highly localized form, thereby enabling the functional ultrafine particles to effectively exhibit their function and, at the same time, the hard coat layer to have a good adhesion to the functional ultrafine particle layer; and also an antireflection film and processes for producing the transparent functional film and the antireflection film.     A functional ultrafine particle layer 2 is formed on a release film 1.  Separately, a resin composition for a hard coat layer is coated on a transparent plastic substrate film 3.  The coated release film is laminated by press bonding to the coated transparent plastic substrate film so that the functional ultrafine particle layer 2 faces the resin composition coating, thereby causing part of the functional ultrafine particles 5 to be embedded in the resin composition coating for a hard coat layer.  The resultant laminate is cured, and the release film 1 is then peeled off.  In the resultant transparent functional film, the functional ultrafine particle layer 2 is partly embedded in and fixed to the hard coat layer 4, and the functional ultrafine particles 5 are localized in the hard coat layer 4 on its surface side.

Title: An apparatus and method for processing, creating, and dispensing a roughage ration for livestock
Inventor: PATTERSON R C
IPC: A01K5/00
Filed: 1999-09-30
Granted: 2007-01-02
Abstract: A machine adapted to be towed by a tractor and powered by the PTO and hydraulic power system of the tractor for transporting, processing and blending two different types of roughage of substantial size and weight into a desired ration for a more efficient and economical nutritional balance and better palatability as well as dispensing the ration to livestock. This improved machine is characterized by two independently hydraulically driven floor chains that are each capable of carrying a large bale (or bales) of roughage through a series of vertically aligned shredders at different rates of speed. This produces a blend of differing types of roughage consistent with the desired nutritional component considered most economical and efficient for the particular livestock being fed. The processed ration is dropped onto a conveyor chain and immediately delivered into feed bunks for livestock consumption. The shredders and conveyor chain are mechanically driven. The variable speed of one hydraulically driven floor chain is controlled by a flow control divertor, while the speed of the other hydraulically driven floor chain remains constant.
