Title: Microbeads of diltiazem, a process for their manufacture and a sustained-release pharmaceutical composition containing them
Inventor: DESMOLIN HENRI
IPC: A61K9/52
Filed: 1989-04-24
Granted: 1991-08-15
Abstract: The microspheres are composed of a core containing the active principle and a microporous membrane which is insoluble in aqueous media, the membrane consisting of a film-forming polymer, a plasticiser and a filler. The membrane has a thickness such that, in vitro, the diltiazem is released at a substantially constant rate for at least 6 hours, after a latency time of less than 1 hour. The active principle may be mixed intimately with the core, or coated in a layer of polyvinylpyrrolidone surrounding a carrier particle. The sustained-release microspheres are formed by application to the core of a dispersion of the constituents of the membrane in a solvent, and evaporation of the solvent. The pharmaceutical compositions consist of hard gelatine capsules containing the microspheres. They are administered, according to the dose, once to twice a day orally for the treatment of angina or hypertension.

Title: Communications network
Inventor: TURNER ROBERT CHARLES
IPC: H04L12/64
Filed: 1986-07-16
Granted: 1989-07-06
Abstract: A network for carrying real-time (RTS) and data services comprises stations (12) on a ring (11). Frames on the ring have a fixed boundary (15) between a real-time portion of the frame and a data portion. A sequence of cycles is initiated by a priority station. During a refresh cycle a bit map on the ring is marked by each station in turn to indicate which slots in the real-time portions are occupied. Next the stations bid for slots needed for new calls. During a third cycle information transfer for RTS calls takes place. After these cycles, priority is passed to the next station. The data portion may use a slotted ring or token ring data control protocol, and data transfer proceeds during RTS cycles. In an alternative version the boundary (15') may be relocated periodically depending on the level of real-time traffic.

Title: Hammer drill with a pneumatically driven striker piston
Inventor: CHROMY FRANZ
IPC: B25D17/06
Filed: 1986-10-31
Granted: 1989-05-11
Abstract: A hammer drill has a cylinder within a housing with the cylinder forming a piston chamber. A drive piston is reciprocally mounted within the piston chamber and is displaced by a motor. A percussion piston is located within the piston chamber with an air cushion space located between the two pistons. As the drive piston reciprocates, it moves the percussion piston back and forth by way of the air cushion located between them. One of the pistons has a conduit open at one end to the air cushion space and at the other end to the exterior of the cylinder. A closure plug is located in the one end of the conduit and closes off air flow from the air cushion space into the conduit at regular operating temperatures. If the temperature in the air cushion space rises due to air leakage from the space, the closure plug melts and connects the conduit with the air space so that the reciprocation of the percussion piston stops before the pistons strike against one another and cause damage.

Title: Redox flow battery
Inventor: SEKIGUCHI SUMIE
IPC: H01M8/04
Filed: 2000-09-20
Granted: 2004-05-20
Abstract: Conventional redox flow batteries have a shortcoming in that the electrolytes in the positive and negative cells migrate through the membrane over the course of charge and discharge, leading to an increase and decrease in the electrolytes, which substantially reduces electric power over cycles of charge and discharge. The present invention provides a redox flow type battery which is a liquid-circulating battery comprising a battery cell and storage tanks for positive and negative electrolytes, wherein the battery cell is separated by a membrane to provide a positive cell and a negative cell, each cell having a liquid-permeable porous electrode disposed therein, wherein the positive and negative electrolytes are sulfuric acid aqueous solutions with vanadium ion concentrations of 0.5 mol/l to 8 mol/l and the electrolyte which migrates through the membrane over cycles of charge and discharge is returned from the storage tank where the liquid increases to the storage tank where the liquid decreases through a pipe in order to keep the change in the amounts of the positive and negative electrolytes in a certain range while charge and discharge are carried out. It is preferable to set a difference in the liquid levels in two storage tanks to reflux the increased electrolyte by overflow. The battery is capable of continuous charge and discharge for a longer period of time without substantially decreasing the battery characteristics. <IMAGE>
