Patent AU-3510384-A (AU)
Title: Concrete floor panel and floor system
Inventor: MORRIS RICHARD PAUL
IPC: E04F15/024
Filed: 1984-11-05
Abstract: A thin lightweight, strong cementitious floor panel (10) has a flat upper surface (12) and a ribbed lower surface (14). Reinforcing rods (32,34) extend through the ribs (16) near the bottom of the panel and are arranged one (32) along each side of the panel and two (34) in a crossed configuration in the centre. The ends of the crossed bars (34) rest on the side bars (32) and the side bars (32) extend to regions adjacent corners of the panel at which the panel can be supported in a floor so that the bars tend to transfer loads imposed on the panel to the panel support regions.
Patent AU-3521097-A (AU)
Title: A suction catheter device
Inventor: SCHNEIDER JAMES
IPC: A61M15/00
Filed: 1997-08-22
Abstract: The invention relates to a respiratory support system (10) which includes a suction catheter device (41), a suction control valve (79), and a ventilator manifold (11). The catheter device (41) includes a proximal end connector (72) having a valve (75) therein which prevents air flow through the catheter (54) until the suction control valve (79) is attached thereto, and a distal end connector (40). The suction control valve (79) includes an actuator (113) which is linearly movable between a first position to a second position. The valve also includes a rotatable valve core (135) which can be rotated by the actuator (113) to a third position to disable its linear movement and to open an ancillary access port. When the actuator (113) is in the first position, atmospheric air can pass through the valve (79) and into the suction pressure source in such a manner that a "hissing" auditory signal is generated, indicative of the presence of suction pressure within the valve (79). The ventilator (11) includes an access port (15) for attachment and detachment of the suction catheter device (41) thereto. The access port (15) has a normally closed valve (16) therein. The placement of the specially designed connector (40) of the suctioning device (41) in the access port (15) forces the normally closed valve (16) to an open position.

Patent AU-3791589-A (AU)
Title: Improved syringe and catheter apparatus
Inventor: WALLING PETER THORBURN
IPC: A61F2/958
Filed: 1989-07-06
Abstract: To inflate the balloon element on the distal end of a pulmonary artery catheter an improved gas syringe is provided which is both volume and pressure-limited so that the syringe is capable of discharging into the catheter no more than the maximum design gas inlet volume thereof while at the same reducing the maximum attainable pressure within the catheter to a predeterminable level substantially below that reached when a conventional volume-limited syringe of the same gas discharge capacity is used. The syringe volume delivery limitation is achieved by forming rearwardly disposed plunger stop members, or a suitable vent opening, in a sidewall portion of the syringe body. The pressure limitation is obtained by forming a pressure absorption zone which defines a substantially inextensible enlargement of the gas-receiving interior of the catheter. In an alternate embodiment of the syringe, an orifice plate having a small orifice opening therein is secured across the syringe outlet to limit the balloon inflation rate during an initial portion of the operation of the syringe.

Title: Method and apparatus for conveying tubular printed product packs and their grouping to form despatch units
Inventor: MEIER JACQUES
IPC: B65G57/03

Abstract: Tubular bundles containing a wound imbricated formation of sheet-like products, in particular printed products, are conveyed via predeterminable conveying zones from at least one bundle-producing device (W.1, W.2) to at least one loading or intermediate storage station (A). For this purpose, the bundles, with axes aligned in the conveying direction, are conveyed away from the bundle-producing device (W.1, W.2) in a longitudinal conveying direction (FPl). Then, in a distribution station (VU) or deflection station (U) for distributing the bundles to various dispatch units and/or for merging the bundles to form identical dispatch units, the conveying direction of at least some of the bundles is changed by essentially 90 DEG  in a transverse conveying direction (FPq) with their axial position remaining the same. Merged bundles can be pressed together in a merging station (ZU) and bound together with a wrapping means to form double or multiple bundles (PP). Individual, double or multiple bundles are tilted in the loading or intermediate storage station (A) such that they come to stand on their end faces. <IMAGE>

Title: A device for dispensing accurately-controlled small doses of liquid
Inventor: RENAUD PHILIPPE
IPC: B01J4/02
Filed: 2001-04-03
Abstract: The invention provides a device for dispensing accurately-controlled small quantities of at least one liquid, comprising a liquid supply (L); a gas supply (G), arranged to selectively supply a gas pressure; and a capillary duct ( 20 ) adapted to be filled with liquid to be dispensed, and to eject the liquid. The device has a filling configuration wherein liquid from the supply is in contact with an end ( 20 a) of the capillary duct to fill the capillary duct with liquid; and a liquid separation and ejection configuration, in which liquid remaining in the liquid supply is separated from liquid that fills the capillary duct to form a discrete quantity (V) of liquid filling the capillary duct ( 20 ) out of contact with the remaining liquid of the liquid supply. The capillary duct, filled with this discrete quantity (V) of liquid then has one end in contact with the gas supply and another end in contact with the atmosphere. The discrete quantity of liquid (V), forming an exact dose of liquid to be dispensed, is ejectable from the second end ( 20 b) of the capillary duct by the application of gas pressure.

Patent AU-4513400-A (AU)
Title: Compliant high temperature seals for dissimilar materials
Inventor: RYNDERS STEVEN WALTON
IPC: C04B37/02
Filed: 2000-07-07
Abstract: A high temperature, gas-tight seal is formed by utilizing one or more compliant metallic toroidal ring sealing elements, where the applied pressure serves to activate the seal, thus improving the quality of the seal. The compliant nature of the sealing element compensates for differences in thermal expansion between the materials to be sealed, and is particularly useful in sealing a metallic member and a ceramic tube art elevated temperatures. The performance of the seal may be improved by coating the sealing element with a soft or flowable coating such as silver or gold and/or by backing the sealing element with a bed of fine powder. The material of the sealing element is chosen such that the element responds to stress elastically, even at elevated temperatures, permitting the seal to operate through multiple thermal cycles.  <IMAGE>
