Patent AU-619561-B2 (AU)
Title: Process and apparatus for ion exchangers, particularly for regeneration after softening and demineralization of aqueous solutions
Inventor: KUNZ GERHARD K
IPC: B01J49/90
Filed: 1989-06-21
Granted: 1992-01-30
Abstract: The invention concerns an ion exchange process and system, particularly for the regeneration step following a softening or desalination of aqueous solutions. The regenerant solution is fed in an upward stream through the ion exchanger in a direction opposite to the charging direction, as a sequence of intermittent pulse intervals consisting of pulse flow followed by a period of no flow. During the pulse flow, there is limited hydrodynamic lifting of the ion exchange resin beds in layers, followed by subsequent sedimentation during the pause period, without mixing of the layers.

Title: Apparatus and method for flipping and positioning articles
Inventor: MIMS HERMAN D
IPC: B65G47/252
Filed: 1996-03-27
Granted: 1999-07-29
Abstract: An apparatus for receiving, in an infeed section, a stream of distributed items deposited in rows of like position. A slide mechanism is is selectively movable between a slide position and a flip position. In the slide position, the item drops off the edge of the belt and slides across the primary slide surface and onto a second slide mechanism having a secondary slide surface that is positioned to be in substantially the same plane as the primary slide surface. The slide mechanism is moved into the flip position for every other row of items. The items to be flipped come off the conveyor belt and come into contact with an abutting surface. This surface changes the direction of the item as it moves towards the transport mechanism in conjunction with a reverse slide surface of the second slide mechanism. The item slides down the reverse slide surface on its top surface, thus flipping over approximately 180 DEG  from its orientation on the infeed conveyor belt. A first row of items fed from the infeed conveyor is flipped and is subsequently held on the transport mechanism by a gate while a second row of items is allowed to slide directly onto the transport mechanism at a position in front of the first row. A plurality of rows can be conveyed by the transport mechanism to the filling and capping stations of an automatic sandwich making system, with alternate rows oriented with their bottom surfaces facing upwards from the surface of the transport mechanism at a high speed while allowing the items adequate settling time during transfer.

Title: Forming a continuous optical waveguide blank and articles formed therefrom
Inventor: SCHULTZ PETER CHARLES
IPC: C03B37/075
Filed: 1980-02-01
Granted: 1981-01-29
Abstract: A preform is formed by providing a substantially longitudinally continuous core member (10) and affixing it to a starting member (12). Particulate material is applied to the exterior surface of the core member to form an adherent coating (18) having an index of refraction less than that of the core member (10). The starting member (12) and the core member (10) are longitudinally translated while simultaneously applying the adherent coating (18) of particulate material to the core member to form a continuous and substantially homogeneous adherent coating of substantially uniform thickness. The composite so formed is simultaneously or subsequently heated to sinter or consolidate the applied adherent coating thereby forming a solid blank which may be heated to the drawing temperature of the material thereof and drawn to reduce the cross-sectional area thereof forming a substantially continuous optical waveguide, the core member (10) comprising the core while the consolidated coating (18) comprising the cladding of the optical waveguide. The adherent coating (18) may be sintered or consolidated to form a solid blank and thereafter drawn in a separate operation or subsequently drawn as part of a continuing operation. As an alternate, the optical waveguide may be drawn immediately following the sintering or consolidation step employing a single heating of the structure.

Abstract: A bait station (10) used in the reduction of pest populations is polygonal, having a first wall (14) that is straight and adapted to fit against a room wall, a second wall (16) with two portions at right angles adapted to fit in a room corner, two threshold portions (20,22) extending between the first wall (14) and the second wall (16), and third wall portions (18) oriented in a direction parallel to adjacent portions of the second wall (16) to define a right-angle passageway (34) between the second wall (16) and the third wall portions (18) and a bait containment chamber (40) between the first wall (14) and the third wall portions (18). The threshold portions (20,22) have pest access entrances (36,38) leading to passageway (34). An opening (40) to the bait containment chamber (32) is formed at the bend in the passageway (34). The passageway (34) makes the pest comfortable by providing a sense of easy access and retreat. The threshold portions (20,22) are angled to allow the pest equally facilitated access whether the bait station (10) is positioned against a corner created by the intersection of two walls or against a straight segment of wall. <IMAGE>

Title: Catalyst composition and method for conversion of C`` and C`` hydrocarbons
Inventor: KOLTS JOHN HENRY
IPC: C07C11/02
Filed: 1986-07-17
Granted: 1989-01-27
Abstract: Novel compositions of matter include: mixed oxides of (a) at least one oxide of chromium, at least one oxide of manganese and at least one oxide of magnesium, Lanthanum Series metals, preferably lanthanum and cerium, and/or niobium; (b) at least one oxide of chromium, at least one oxide of calcium, strontium, tin and/or antimony, at least one oxide of manganese and at least one oxide of magnesium, Lanthanum Series metals and/or niobium; - (c) at least one oxide of chromium, at least one oxide of iron and at least one oxide of magnesium, , Lanthanum Series metals and/or niobium; and (d) at least one oxide of chromium, at least one oxide of liron, at least one oxide of manganese and at least one oxide of magnesium, Lanthanum Series metals and/or niobium. These compositions are particularly effective as catalyst compositions for the conversion of C, and C, hydrocarbons to less saturated hydrocarbons, with high selectivities to ethylene and ethane and particularly ethylene, and the addition of the chromium significantly extends the activity of the catalyst for such selective conversion before regeneration is necessary. A method of converting C, and C, hydrocarbons to less saturated hydrocarbons, and selectively to ethylene and ethane and particularly ethylene, is also disclosed. Carrying out the process in the presence of steam is essential to the process when the catalyst contains iron and is optional when the catalyst does not contain iron. Limiting the amount of bound or fixed sulfur in the catalyst also improves the catalyst.

Title: Method and kit for detecting betalactam-containing compounds
Inventor: LOFAS STEFAN
IPC: C12Q1/37
Filed: 2000-06-26
Granted: 2004-06-24
Abstract: Methods and kits are disclosed for detecting betalactam-containing compounds in a sample, and typically liquid products intended for human consumption such as milk. Betalactam-containing compounds include the class of betalactam antibiotics which may be present as undesired contaminates of milk. The methods involves contacting the sample with a D,D-carboxypeptidase and a substrate having a carboxyterminal D-alanine-D-alanine to form a reaction mixture, wherein the D,D-carboxypeptidase is capable of cleaving the terminal D-alanine from the substrate to yield a cleaved substrate. In an optional step, the reaction mixture is further contacted with a ligand specific to the cleaved substrate or substrate. The cleaved substrate or substrate of the reaction mixture, or the ligand specific to the cleaved substrate or substrate, is then captured by a surface-bound binding partner, with the amount of captured material being indicative to the amount of betalactam-containing compound in the sample. Kits for performing the methods of this invention are also disclosed.
