Title: Method of making fiber coupler having integral precision connection wells
Inventor: BERKEY GEORGE EDWARD
IPC: C03B37/15
Filed: 1989-09-12
Granted: 1991-09-26
Abstract: An optical fiber coupler is formed by providing a glass tube (10) having a longitudinal aperture (12). Two contiguous carbon tubes (14,15) are disposed within the longitudinal aperture which is thereafter collapsed thereon. A glass capillary tube (30) is formed by removing the carbon tubes. The tube can be stretched to form a precision capillary tube which is severed into coupler-length tubes (44). Two optical fibers (52,53), which are shorter in length than the aperture (46) of a coupler-length tube (44), are centered in that aperture. The midregion (59) of the resultant assembly is heated and collapsed about the central portions of the fibers. The central region of the resultant coupler preform is heated and drawn to reduce the diameter thereof. The end regions (77,78) of the aperture, which are not diminished in size by the aforementioned processing, function as receptacles into which optical fibers can be inserted to make connection to the coupler

Patent AU-782591-B2 (AU)
Title: Medicinal implant and device and method for loading and delivering implants containing drugs and cells
Inventor: TENHUISEN KEVOR S
IPC: A61M31/00
Filed: 2002-06-25
Granted: 2005-08-11
Abstract: A system for injecting controlled release medicinal implants has a syringe-like injector body with a lumen and plunger. A needle is attached to the injector body and receives therein an injectable implant with an internal hollow. The implant is retained in the needle by friction, which is overcome by the plunger upon dispensing. As the plunger moves from the retracted position to the deployed position, it forces a medicament previously loaded into the injector body into the implant hollow and then pushes the implant out of the needle into the creature into which the needle has been inserted. The implant may contain a filler to absorb flowable medicaments to aid in their retention within the implant. As in known implants, the medicament is released gradually depending upon the dissolution rate of the implant body which is formed from a biodegradable material. Because the medicament is loaded into the implant at the time of injection, issues concerning the reaction of the medicament with the implant material during preparation and storage are eliminated.

Granted: 1984-03-08
Abstract: A cap is made from a plurality of panels each having an upwardly extending tapered portion assembled with hems along the tapered edges of each panel sewn to the hems of adjacent panels to form the cap. The tapered portions of the panels are surface ornamented prior to assembly with a decoration having directionally oriented portions defined by lines extending across the seam of the cap at angles inclined to the lines of the seams. The said portions of the decoration are extended across the hems to the tapered edges of said panel in directions perpendicular to the tapered edges. When the panels are assembled into the crown of the cap, the portions of the decoration on the hem of one panel are placed against corresponding portions of the decoration on the hem of the adjacent panel before sewing the panels together, so that the said portions of the decoration on the panel on one side of a seam will be in exact register with the corresponding portions of the decoration on the panel on the other side of the seam. The said portions of the surface ornamentation can in the same way be arranged to extend from the panels on to the outer surface of the visor of the cap.

IPC: H04B14/04
Filed: 1982-07-12
Granted: 1983-06-16
Abstract: A process, and a device for carrying out the process, is provided for coding pulse-amplitude modulated signals into PCM signals in accordance with an approximated logarithmic characteristic curve. In the process, a partial coding characteristic curve which possesses a substantially reduced dynamic scope is first produced in a known manner. In accordance with the invention, a second pre-decision is carried out which subdivides the dynamic region of the partial coding characteristic curve into two sub-regions in such a manner that the coding of the lower and upper sub-regions is effected with the same number of weighting steps. This saves one weighting step with respect to prior processes.
