Patent ZA-916459-B (ZA)
Title: Shoe with a central fastener
Inventor: BERGER CHRISTOPH
IPC: A43C11/14
Filed: 1991-08-15
Abstract: The invention concerns a shoe, in particular a shoe for sport, leisure or rehabilitation purposes, with a centrally positioned clasp mounted on a dimensionally stable instep covering which can be moved towards or away from the instep. The clasp is designed so that it can be used with shoes having uppers made of material which is flexible with respect to tensional forces, i.e. with shoes which do not have dimensionally stable sheath-like uppers. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the centrally positioned clasp (24) is fitted on a mounting plate (23) which is attached to a flexible tongue (15). The mounting plate (23) is significantly smaller than the length on the instep (26), thus allowing substantial parts of the tongue (15) to remain flexible.

Title: Hydrophilic polyurethane membranes for electrochemical glucose sensors
Inventor: ALLEN DOUGLAS JAMES
IPC: C08G18/32
Filed: 1992-09-28
Abstract: Homogeneous membranes permeable to oxygen and glucose composed of hydrophilic polyurethanes that are capable of absorbing from 10 to 50% of their dry weight of water. Variations in the composition of the hydrophilic polyurethanes make possible the fabrication of membranes in which the ratios of the diffusion coefficients of oxygen to glucose can be varied over a wide range. These membranes can be used in the fabrication of an electrochemical glucose sensor intended for use in vivo as an aid in the treatment of diabetes mellitus.

Title: Process for the preparation of 3-(methylthio) propanal
Inventor: HSU YUNG C
IPC: C07C45/35
Filed: 1993-08-11
Abstract: A process for the continuous preparation of 3-(methylthio) propanal. A liquid reaction medium is contacted with a gaseous acrolein feed stream in a gas/liquid contact zone. The reaction medium contains 3-(methylthio) propanal, methyl mercaptan and a catalyst for the reaction between methyl mercaptan and acrolein. The gaseous acrolein feed stream comprises acrolein vapor and non-condensible gas. Acrolein is transferred from the acrolein feed stream to the reaction medium and reacts with methyl mercaptan in that medium to produce a liquid reaction product containing 3-(methylthio) propanal. The non-condensible gas is separated from the liquid reaction product. The reaction product is divided into a product fraction and a circulating fraction, and the circulating fraction is recycled to the gas/liquid contact zone. <IMAGE>

Title: Electronic timepieces with stepping motor driven time displays
IPC: G01R33/028
Filed: 1980-05-02
Granted: 1983-04-20
Abstract: An electronic timepiece has a stepping motor comprised of a stator, rotor and coil, and circuitry for producing and applying driving pulses to the coil to effect stepwise rotation of the rotor. The presence of an external alternating magnetic field is detected by switching the coil from an open-circuit condition to a low impedance loop comprised of the coil and a low impedance element. The rotation of the rotor is detected by alternately switching the coil between the low impedance loop and a high impedance loop comprised of the coil and a high impedance element. Control circuitry controls the switching operations to ensure that the magnetic field detection and the rotor rotation detection are carried out at different times.

Title: Sorting apparatus
Inventor: GILLARD-HICKMAN DOUGLAS R
IPC: B65G47/80
Filed: 1998-05-05
Granted: 2002-11-06
Abstract: A sorting apparatus is disclosed which allows automatic handling of, for example, baggage to be examined by an X-ray system. The apparatus comprises a conveyor belt system (30) which carries baggage through an X-ray unit (70) to allow monitoring of the contents of the baggage as it passes therethrough. Downstream of the X-ray unit (70) is a turntable (140). If an operator of the apparatus decides that further, manual investigation of the baggage that has passed through the X-ray unit (70) is not necessary, then the turntable (140) drives the baggage onto a collection bench (170). If, on the other hand, the operator decides that further investigation of the baggage is necessary, then the turntable (140) is rotated through 90 DEG , and baggage thereon is driven off onto an inspection bench (200) at right angles to the collection bench (170). The amount of lifting and carrying of baggage during examination is thereby reduced. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for file system disaster recovery
Inventor: KHALIDI YOUSEF A
IPC: G06F11/20
Filed: 1999-06-01
Granted: 2002-12-18
Abstract: A file disaster recovery system that employs geographical replication of data from a local site to remote site in a such a manner that file requests from clients of the local site can be handled by a file server on the remote site following a failover from the local site to the remote site. Geographical data replication software running on a local server checkpoints to a log in local stable storage all information on file operations that change the file state of the local file system. According to a selected mode, the local geographical data replication software flushes information in the log pertaining to the file operations since the last flush to the remote site. At the remote site, compatible remote geographical data replication software running on a remote file server receives the flushed log and replicates in sequence order the file operations represented in the flushed log. The results of the operations are stored on remote stable storage. The local and remote servers can be clusters or single servers. There is no need for commonality, except for operating and file systems, between the local and remote sites. Because operations are replicated and not low level, formatted data, the local and remote stable file storage can be completely different.
