Title: Safety seat
Inventor: AMESAR PANKAJ TULSIDAS
IPC: B60N2/28
Filed: 2006-09-06
Granted: 2009-06-30
Abstract: A seat for providing an improved level of protection to a child by reducing the amount of farce restraining straps exert upon the child during a collision. The seat includes a seat frame and a cover positioned over the seat frame to provide comfort to a seat occupant.

Title: Train handling techniques and analysis
Inventor: HAWTHORNE MICHAEL J
IPC: G09B9/04
Filed: 2000-09-16
Granted: 2008-02-19
Abstract: This is a method of analyzing train handling by setting a standard for the run, collecting train operating or handling data from the run and determining operating constraints during the run which are not included in the standard run. The determination of operating constraints during a run also includes determining differences between the operating constraints during the run of those included in the standard. The train handling data is compared to the standard and the comparison is adjusted for the operating constraints. The adjustment of the comparison includes nullifying any deviation of the handling data from the standard resulting from the operating constraints. A report is created from the standard and the handling data correlating the energy usage for specific categories. These categories include one or more of pneumatic braking, dynamic braking and track topology. The report further includes energy adjustments for the operating constraints determined during the run.

Title: Disque de derivation en forme de u et appareil de livraison

Abstract: Le disque intervertébral ne contient aucun vaisseau sanguin. Les nutriments et les déchets sont diffusés principalement à travers les corps vertébraux adjacents. Avec l'âge, des couches calcifiées se forment entre le disque et les corps vertébraux, bloquant la diffusion. Le disque commence à manquer de nutrition et à s'aplatir. Le poids passe anormalement du disque aux facettes articulaires, provoquant une tension mécanique et des maux de dos. Sous des conditions anaérobies, de l'acide lactique est produit, provoquant une irritation acide et des douleurs non spécifiques. L'invention concerne une dérivation de disque en forme de U, livrée et scellée dans le disque dégénéré simplement par une piqûre d'aiguille puis son retrait, permettant de faire passer des nutriments de la circulation corporelle dans le disque avasculaire. Un approvisionnement continuel en nutriments augmente la biosynthèse de glycosaminoglycanes sulfatées retenant l'eau, provoquant ainsi une pression par gonflement dans le disque. Le poids repasse des facettes articulaires au disque régénéré, éliminant les maux de dos. Grâce à l'oxygène transporté à travers la dérivation, la production anaérobie d'acide lactique est minimisée. De plus, l'acide lactique résiduel est expulsé, à travers la dérivation en U lors de la compression du disque, dans la circulation corporelle afin de soulager des douleurs non spécifiques.
