Abstract: The present invention pertains to a process of improving the total yield of curcuminoids from curcuminoid-containing material. More specifically, there is provided a process wherein a second residue, previously considered a waste resulting from a crystallisation step of a curcuminoid-containing phase, is made useful by improving the colouring properties of this second residue by extraction with hexane and/or methanol at ambient temperature. The process improves the total yield of curcuminoids by 30-40 %.

Abstract: With the rising popularity in wireless personal communication systems (PCS), there is a need for low-power, low-cost radio receivers. Low cost can be achieved by integrating the required functions as much as possible, thus minimizing the number of off-chip components. The present invention discloses a novel topology for integrating an image reject filter with a traditional low-noise amplifier (LNA) for use in the front-end of a superheterodyne receiver. Previous topologies employing additional filter stages after the LNA have suffered from poor performance and excessive current consumption. Advantageously, the topology of the present invention requires minimal additional circuitry to perform the filtering function, uses only minimal additional current and does not suffer from the same performance limitations as previous topologies.

Abstract: A screwdriver with a bit storage member rotatable about a slotted, apertured core. A magnet-tipped push rod slides through the core. A magnetic lever arm is pivotally coupled to the core and biased toward its slot. The rod moves through the member between extended and retracted positions. In the extended position, the core is rotatable with respect to the member to position the slot adjacent a bit storage cavity; and, the lever arm is pivotally biased toward and through the slot, magnetically attracting the tool bit in the cavity. While the rod moves into the retracted position, the member is not rotatable about the core; the rod pushes the arm and bit away from the cavity, through the slot into the core; the rod's magnet moves forwardly magnetically attracting the bit; and, pushes the bit forwardly through a shaft to protrude through the shaft's open forward end.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a filter element having a non-porous extrusion laminated strip formed on at least one edge and at least one side of a membrane. The strip is used to provide a means for ensuring a good bond between the filter element and the material into which it is potted. The strip is formed by the use of one or more extrusion heads that apply molten or softened polymer to one or both of the surfaces of the filter in a width and height desired. The strip is then subjected to pressure such as through a nip to at least partially embed the polymer strip into the filter pores so as to create a strong mechanical bond between the strip and the filter element. Additionally, it allows for the simultaneous formation of more than one membrane with the edge lamination at the same time.

Abstract: A locking segment for use in connecting two lengths of pipe has a radically extending heel that serves as a rotational brake. By mating the brake into an annular trough, that is, by placing it between two walls, the rotation of the segment can continue only until points on the brake mure between the two walls. Rotation of the segment in response to increasing thrust pressures can thereby be arrested before the rotation causes the segment to bear on the spigot with a radially inward force great enough to penetrate the spigot.
