Title: Apparatus for discharging molten metal in a casting device and method of use
Inventor: HOOVER DONALD BRUCE
IPC: C04B35/66
Filed: 1996-04-26
Granted: 2000-04-06
Abstract: A nozzle or tube which is useful for pouring molten metal, especially aluminum killed molten steel. The nozzle is formed from a blend of doloma and graphite which is bonded together in a carbonized matrix. Nozzles or tubes made in accordance with this invention have enhanced thermal shock resistance. Furthermore, the nozzles or tubes of this invention resist the formation of aluminum oxide therein when they are used for pouring molten aluminum killed steel. Consequently, these tubes or nozzles can be used in a continuous casting process for a long period of time without having to periodically stop the procedure and change the tubes as they become blocked with aluminum oxide. As a result of the thermal shock resistance, the usual preheating step prior to contacting the nozzle with the molten metal is greatly reduced.

Title: Driven running gear with steerable individual units
IPC: B61G5/02
Filed: 1990-08-17
Granted: 1993-03-25
Abstract: The driven running gear is intended for underslung rail vehicles with at least two articulated body units. It has two individual sets of running gear (2, 2') fitted with steering means (15, 15', 16). These are interconnected to pivot about their horizontal axis beneath the centre of the wheel axles (8, 8') by a link (3), which, at its ends, has transverse bearers (4, 4') to support a body unit to which are secured at least one motor (21, 21') and a brake (23, 23', 24, 24') which drive and brake the running gear (1) via telescopic transmission shafts (25, 25') and bevel gear drives (26, 26') fitted on the outsides of the wheels on both individual sets of running gear (2, 2'). Thus, when the vehicle is taking a curve, the angle formed between a leading body unit beneath which there is such a set of running gear and a trailing body unit also supported on an axle is transmitted to the steerable individual running gears units so that the pairs of wheels assume the desired radial position.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB90/01274 Sec. 371 Date May 21, 1991 Sec. 102(e) Date May 21, 1991 PCT Filed Aug. 14, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO91/02578 PCT Pub. Date Mar. 7, 1991.A filter element generally indicated at 10 comprising a spring 11 whose coils are so formed that the filter gaps 12 progressively increase in size from one end 13 of the coil to the other end 14. The increase in the size of the gaps is carefully chosen so that the available deflection for any coil section, when the spring is vertically orientated, is sufficient to develop an upward force which can support the coils in the spring 11 which extend above that particular coil section. Similar results can be achieved by varying the resilience or stiffness characteristics through the filter element.

Title: Method and apparatus for efficient data transmission in a voice-over-data communication system
Inventor: YAO YU-DONG
IPC: H04L12/28
Filed: 2000-07-14
Granted: 2004-04-22
Abstract: A method and apparatus for increasing the probability of successful data frame transmission from a transmitter to a receiver. When a data frame is generated by a processor, it is stored in a transmit queue and a copy of the data frame is stored in a secondary queue. An elapsed time device tracks the elapsed time that the data frame copy has been stored in the secondary queue. When no data frames are generated by the processor, data frame copies from the secondary queue are placed into the transmit queue, thereby increasing the redundancy of transmitted data frames and thus the probability of successful transmission to the receiver.
Patent AU-698465-B2 (AU)
Title: Electrochemiluminescent enzyme biosensors
Inventor: MARTIN MARK T
IPC: G01N27/42
Filed: 1996-06-06
Granted: 1998-10-29
Abstract: Electrochemiluminescent enzymes, their preparation and use as biosensors are disclosed. Specifically, two appendages are covalently attached to a desired dehydrogenase enzyme; (1) a nicotinamide adenine cofactor or analog thereof, and (2) a luminescent ruthenium complex. For example, glucose concentrations is the following way. A doubly-modified glucose dehydrogenase could oxidize glucose with concomitant reduction of the attached NAD<+> to NADH. Because NADH, but not NAD<+>, is able to interact with surface ruthenium to promote ECL, only enzyme molecules that have reacted with glucose will emit light from their ruthenium label in an ECL instrument. The relative close proximity of NADH and ruthenium on the enzyme surface enhances light emission as compared to the same concentrations in free solution. When NADH reduces ruthenium, it returns to become NAD<+>, permitting multiple cycles of ECL light emission from a single enzyme molecule. Such biosensors can be used in solution or bound to a solid surface. Assays employing the biosensor molecules can be performed on an IGEN Origen<R >Analyzer.
