Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif d'administration percutanée d'une substance par l'intermédiaire du mouvement rotatif d'un dispositif micro-abrasif; ce dispositif et ce procédé permettant de réduire les incidences de la variabilité de l'opérateur. Le procédé décrit dans cette invention consiste à appliquer une substance sur une zone de la peau d'un patient par l'intermédiaire du mouvement rotatif de microprotubérances. Le mouvement des microprotubérances peut être communiqué par un dispositif à ressort ou par tout autre dispositif analogue placé dans le dispositif micro-abrasif, ou par le déplacement de l'opérateur au moyen de la poignée du dispositif micro-abrasif. Le déplacement rotatif limite l'administration du médicament ou de la dose de vaccin à la zone de peau abrasée. Le dispositif décrit dans cette invention peut comprendre un moyen qui permet de contrôler la pression exercée sur la peau par le dispositif et, ainsi, de favoriser la continuité entre les applications, et de réguler la profondeur de pénétration. La substance, le médicament ou le vaccin peut être placé sur les microprotubérances et un liquide de reconstitution peut être inclus dans le dispositif micro-abrasif.

Abstract: The braking device (28) is provided a set of shape memory alloy activators (58) positioned, in an agonistic-antagonistic configuration on each side of a brake lever (42). Braking and releasing phases are dictated by the austenitic transformation of the shape memory alloy activators. During brake activation, shrinking of the braking activator brings the friction pad (52) in contact with a rotating drum (40) creating a braking friction torque. Once the brake has been activated, deformation of a flexible fiberglass component (52) prevents brake releasing by applying sufficient normal force between the drum and the friction pad. Conversely, upon heating of the releasing activator, the pad looses its grip and the drum is free to rotate.

Title: Cyclonic separating apparatus
Inventor: STRUTT BENJAMIN JOHN
IPC: B04C5/26
Filed: 2004-10-11
Granted: 2011-08-16
Abstract: The invention provides separating apparatus (100) comprising a separating chamber (132) in which cyclonic separation is able to take place, an inlet (118) to the separating chamber (132) and a shroud (124) comprising a wall (126) having a multiplicity of through-holes (128) forming an outlet from the separating chamber (132), the shroud (124) further comprising a lip (130;  130') extending from the wall (126) into the separating chamber (132), characterized in that lip (130; 130') has a plurality of apertures (136) therethrough. The provision of apertures (136) in the depending lip (130;  130') allows the airflow to be drawn through the apertures (136) whilst it is still in the separating chamber (132). This has the effect of capturing some of the dirt and dust which remains entrained within the airflow so that it collects on the upstream side (130a) of the lip (130; 130'). Thus the shroud through-holes (128) are presented with less entrained dirt and dust and the risk of the through-holes (128) becoming blocked is reduced.

Title: Load binder locking device
Inventor: STOLK FRANK M
IPC: B66D3/02
Filed: 2006-07-13
Granted: 2010-11-23
Abstract: A device for releasably locking a lever-type load binder in the closed or tightened position includes a length of cable or other suitable flexible material with a loop formed in one end. The cable passes through an opening in an abutment plate, such that the abutment plate can slide along the cable between a pair of spaced stop members fixed to the cable near its free end. When a lever-type load binder is engaged with a load--securing chain, the locking device may be used to lock the lever in the closed position by passing the loop end of the cable through a selected chain link adjacent to the lever, extending the free end of the cable around the load binder lever, and then passing the abutment plate and the free end of the cable through the loop such that the loop is disposed behind the abutment plate, with the abutment plate preventing the loop from moving toward the free end of the cable. The locking device may be removed by angularly orienting the abutment plate so that it can be pushed back through the loop.

Title: Panel assembly and method for its production
Inventor: DE WINTER HUGO
IPC: B60J10/00
Filed: 2005-03-17
Granted: 2012-08-14
Abstract: The panel assembly comprises a panel (2) and a gasket (1) adhered to the panel and extending along at least a portion of the periphery. For producing the panel assembly a curable composition is applied either directly or indirectly onto the panel and onto a mould surface (6) onto which the panel has been positioned. When being applied on the mould 5 surface, the curable composition has a dynamic viscosity which is lower than the dynamic viscosity of extrusion materials. In this way, a better surface quality can be achieved without having to exert a high pressure onto the curable composition. In contrast to the known RIM processes, the curable composition is not injected in a closed mould but is applied 10 onto an open mould surface by means of an applicator device (9) moving along at least said portion of the periphery of the panel (2). In this way, cheaper moulds can be used and in particular moulds made of a soft, resilient material (8).
