Title: Repressurizing dispenser for carbonated beverage containers
Inventor: DE LA GUARDIA MARIO
IPC: F04F1/00
Filed: 2001-11-26
Abstract: A repressurizing beverage dispenser (10) attaches to the threaded neck (N) of a carbonated beverage container (B) and includes a main body (12), handle (14), and a head portion (16). A pivotal valve spout (50) on the head portion is moveable between closed and open position and includes a ball-shaped portion (52) disposed in mating, sealing engagement with a resilient dish-shaped valve seat (62). Movement of the valve spout to the open position rotates the ball-shaped portion until a through passage (55) in the valve spout aligns with the central opening (38) of the cap (30). A hand operated squeeze bulb pump (62) fitted to the handle delivers air through the discharge opening (80) and pressurizes the container when the valve spout is closed, thereby preserving the carbonated beverage. The handle portion is structured to hold the squeeze bulb in a manner which prevents undesirable movement of the squeeze bulb and blockage of airflow to the beverage container.
Patent NZ-534435-A (NZ)
Title: Handle assembly for power tool
Inventor: STONES KEVIN
IPC: H01H9/06
Filed: 2004-07-30
Abstract: A handle assembly for a power tool is disclosed, in which the power tool has a housing, a motor provided in the housing, and an output shaft adapted to be caused by the motor to actuate a working member extending form the housing along a first axis. The handle assembly (102) comprises a front handle (106), a rear handle integral with the front handle, and a mounting portion adapted to be mounted to the housing of the tool, wherein the front handle forms an obtuse angle with the axis of the working member in use. This last feature makes the power tool more comfortable for a user to operate, provided that the center of mass of the power tool lies in the region between the front handle and the rear handle (107). This will usually be the case, since the heaviest parts of the tool are generally the working member and the motor housing thereof. Thus the user does not have to stretch his forward arm as far relative to the rear handle as he would have to do when using the handle assembly of a conventional power tool of this type.

Patent NZ-543111-A (NZ)
Title: Method and use for the reversible aggregation and/or dissociation of polypeptides (comprising peptide repeats derived from prion, such as hexa- or octa-peptides) using a pH dependency mechanism
Inventor: ZAHN RALPH
IPC: C07K14/47
Filed: 2004-03-23
Abstract: An alternative method of reversible aggregation and/or dissociation of polypeptides is described. The proteins or polypeptides have an inherent aggregation capability, wherein the aggregation is an oligomerisation of the polypeptide that is based on the presence and the structure of peptide repeats localised in a flexibly disordered domain of this polypeptide. The flexibly disordered domain comprising the peptide repeats is located in close proximity with the N-terminus of the protein amino acid sequence. Preferably, each of the peptide repeats has a sequence that comprises one to four identical octapeptides with the amino acid sequence: PHGGGWGQ. Preferred proteins are selected from the group comprising cellular prion proteins (PrPc) and engineered polypeptides or fusion proteins with a respective inherent reversible aggregation and dissociation capability. Because of the mechanism of aggregation described, the oligomerisation reaction of the protein is reversible in a fluidic environment depending on the pH of this fluidic environment. Oligomerisation occurs at a pH of 6.2 to 7.8, and the dissociation into monomers is reported to be at a pH range of 4.5 to 5.5. Fig 1 shows the primary structure of the human prion protein

Abstract: A so-called self-sustaining emagnetodynamic machine includes a stator with a circular array of equally spaced and magnetically isolated permanent magnets 18, 19, 20 with poles of like polarity directed to the centre of the circle, and a rotor with a composite magnet having a leading pole and a trailing pole, the leading pole leading the trailing pole during rotation of the rotor, the composite magnet being attached to a central journalled shaft 11,so that the composite magnet rotates closely past the inner stator poles and rotates the shaft as it does so. The stator includes a release electromagnet 22 to magnetically cooperate with the composite magnet of the rotor, by developing a magnetic polarity similar to the array of permanent magnet poles of the stator and timed to switch off at the point that the trailing magnetic pole of the composite magnet is to be released. Apparently the composite magnet provides a rotational force on the rotor when the composite magnet becomes proximate each to the permanent magnets in the stator array, the direction of the rotational force being that produced when the polarity of the composite pole is similar to that of the stator poles. An energy feedback loop transfers energy from the rotor to the release electromagnet. The feedback loop includes a current generator coupled to the rotor and a current pulse generator and a booster which supplies power from the current pulse generator to operate the release electromagnet.

Abstract: 593845 A method and system for producing hydrocarbons from a hydrocarbon containing hydrate reservoir is disclosed. The method includes providing at least one producer well (36) in fluid communication with a producing facility and with a hydrocarbon containing hydrate reservoir comprising a hydrate formation (22). The hydrate reservoir is in fluid communication with a head space (32) disposed above the hydrate formation. The head space contains disassociated hydrocarbons and water. A sweep gas is swept through the head space to remove the disassociated gas and water from the hydrate reservoir and to transport the disassociated gas and water to the at least one producer well. Preferably, the sweep gas is introduced into the head space utilizing one or more injector wells (34). The sweep gas may be heated. The additional pressure and/or heat provided by the sweep gas may help inhibit the reformation of disassociated gas and water into hydrates allowing for enhanced production rates.
