Title: Scavenging oxygen
Inventor: ADRIAN CARMICHAEL
IPC: B65D51/24
Filed: 2010-04-08
Abstract: A closure (40) includes a body (42) with a screw threaded portion (44) for engaging the closure with a container, for example a bottle. Inwards of portion (44) is a liner (46) comprising a hydrogen generating device, wherein the liner includes one layer (48) which incorporates a hydride dispersed in a polymeric matrix and, on opposite sides of layer (48) are arranged PET layers (50, 52). Layer (50) is arranged to act as a control layer to control the rate of passage of water vapour from the beverage in the container to the hydride containing layer (48) and thereby control generation of hydrogen by the hydrogen generating device. In use, water vapour passes through layer (50) and contacts the hydride associated with layer (48) which results in production of molecular hydrogen which combines with oxygen which may have entered a container with which the closure (40) is associated. Thereafter, a reaction between the hydrogen and oxygen takes place, catalysed by a catalyst associated with the container thereby to scavenge the oxygen.

Title: Method and apparatus for non-invasive treatment of hypertension through ultrasound renal denervation
Inventor: WARNKING REINHARD J
IPC: A61N7/02
Filed: 2010-10-29
Abstract: Non-invasive inactivation of nerve conduction in a treatment region of a mammalian subject as, for example, a region encompassing a renal artery. A therapeutic ultrasound transducer (31) is engaged with the body of the subject outside of the treatment region, preferably with the skin of the subject in proximity to the treatment region (10). The transducer is actuated to transmit therapeutically effective softly focused ultrasound energy at a level which brings tissues throughout a relatively large impact volume (22), desirably 1 cm or larger, to a temperature sufficient to inactivate conduction nerves but insufficient to cause rapid necrosis. The impact volume can be aligned with the treatment region using imaging techniques. The treatment can be applied without imaging or precisely locating individual nerves, and can be used, for example, to inactive renal nerves in treatment of hypertension.

Title: Apparatus and method for gripping and releasing objects
Inventor: ELLIS JOSEPH D
IPC: B25J15/06
Filed: 2010-03-16
Abstract: Improved devices and methods for gripping, supporting and releasing objects, which may be used with robotic arms, manipulators or vehicles, to hold, move or rotate objects in automated manufacturing, packaging, assembling and construction applications. The device comprises a body, an adapter flange for mounting an object gripper with an intake, a vacuum supply port, an airflow passageway configured to couple the intake to the vacuum supply port to define a substantially contiguous vacuum path, and an actuating system to open and close a breach in the substantially contiguous vacuum path.
