Title: Variable rail receiving unit
Inventor: SMITH GARY
IPC: E04F11/18
Filed: 2010-09-15
Abstract: The present invention relates to a handrail assembly (20), as well as the rail receiving unit and balusters which make up part of the assembly, which allows easy assembly of a handrail on both flat/horizontal and inclined surfaces. In particular the invention allows for a handrail to be assembled without the need for a skilled craftsman to determine angles, such that upper and lower rails remain at an even or predetermined distance from the ground even when the rail is positioned on an inclined surface such as a ramp or stairs. A rail receiving unit is provided which has an inner housing (23) within an outer housing (21), the inner housing being adapted to receive a rail and be pivotable about an axis in relation to the outer housing such that the angle at which the rail is received into the receiving unit is variable. A preferred embodiment allows the inner housing to be both pivotable and rotatable in relation to the outer housing, providing further flexibility to the user.

Title: Buffy coat separator float systems and methods
Inventor: HAUBERT THOMAS D
IPC: C12Q1/00
Filed: 2011-03-30
Abstract: Tube and float systems for separation and axial expansion of the buffy coat are provided. Generally, the systems include a flexible sample tube and a rigid separator float having a specific gravity intermediate that of red blood cells and plasma. The sample tube has an elongated sidewall having a first cross- sectional inner diameter. The float has a main body portion and one or more support members protruding from the main body portion to engage and support the sidewall of the sample tube. During centrifugation, the centrifugal force enlarges the diameter of the tube to permit density-based axial movement of the float in the tube. After centrifugation is ended, the tube sidewall returns to its first diameter, thereby capturing the float and trapping the buffy coat constituents in an annular volume. Several different systems for capturing and retrieving the buffy coat constituents are described.

Title: Abuse-Resistant Controlled-Release Opioid Dosage Form
Inventor: CARUSO FRANK S
IPC: A61K9/20
Filed: 2012-01-03
Abstract: Abuse-resistant, controlled release opioid tablets in combination containing an opioid antagonist such as naloxone at a level above that needed to suppress the euphoric effect of the opioid, if the combination were crushed to break the controlled release properties causing the opioid and opioid antagonist to be released as a immediate release product as a single dose. The controlled release nature of the tablet prevents the accumulation of orally effective amounts of opioid antagonist when taken normally. The opioid antagonist is contained in a controlled-release matrix and released, over time, with the opioid.

Title: Valve release mechanism
Inventor: SIMPSON GREGORY D
IPC: F16K31/72
Filed: 2012-01-06
Abstract: VALVE RELEASE MECHANISM A valve release mechanism has an actuator, a ring, a plurality of ball bearings, and a retainer. The retainer is positioned adjacent an inner diameter of the ring and has a plurality of circumferentially spaced holes therein. Each circumferentially spaced hole receives one of the plurality of ball bearings, which are movable therein. The ring has channels and lands along its inner diameter that allow the ball bearings to move varying distances relative to the retainer. The lands contact the ball bearings when the ring is in a first position and the channels receive the ball bearings when the ring is in a second position. The poppet has a groove that is vertically aligned with circumferentially spaced holes in the retainer when the poppet is in a first closed position. The ball bearings are pressed into the groove in the poppet by the lands of the ring. The resulting interference of the ball bearings with poppet locks the poppet in the first closed position. The ring can be moved from the first closed position to a second position by the actuator. 0 0' 20 6-28 3, O
