Abstract: Selon l'invention, le stockage en vrac de gaz naturel ou de méthane est facilité par absorption du gaz dans un milieu liquéfié. L'invention concerne des systèmes et des procédés facilitant l'absorption de gaz naturel ou de méthane dans un milieu liquide ou liquide-vapeur en vue d'un stockage et d'un transport, puis l'extraction du gaz en vue d'une distribution sur un marché. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, on utilise les propriétés d'absorption de l'éthane, du propane et du butane dans des conditions modérées de température et de pression pour stocker un gaz naturel ou du méthane avec de meilleurs rapports volumétriques de compression. Le procédé de mélange préféré permet de combiner efficacement le gaz naturel ou le méthane avec un milieu sous forme de solvant tel que de l'éthane, du propane ou du butane liquide ou un autre fluide approprié, d'où la formation d'un mélange liquide ou liquide-vapeur concentré en vue d'un stockage et d'un transport.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un vecteur de médicament spécifique aux astrocytes contenant un dérivé de rétinoïde et/ou un analogue de la vitamine A comme constituant ; un procédé d'administration d'un médicament utilisant celui-ci ; un médicament contenant celui-ci ; et un procédé thérapeutique utilisant le médicament. En liant un vecteur de médicament à un dérivé de rétinoïde tel que la vitamine A ou un analogue de la vitamine A ou en encapsulant celui-ci dans le vecteur de médicament, on peut administrer un médicament à usage thérapeutique spécifiquement aux astrocytes. En conséquence, on peut inhiber ou éviter de façon efficace et effective une maladie liée aux astrocytes tout en minimisant les effets secondaires. Comme médicament inhibant l'activité ou le développement des astrocytes, par exemple, un ARNsi contre la protéine HSP47, laquelle est un chaperon moléculaire spécifique au collagène, peut être encapsulé dans le vecteur de médicament. Ainsi, la sécrétion de collagènes de types I à IV peut être inhibée en même temps et, à son tour, une fibrose peut être inhibée de façon efficace.

Granted: 2012-09-11
Abstract: A motor grader blade control system comprises that one ends of respective lift cylinders 11 a and 11 b are connected to a lifter bracket 7 respectively through first support means 20 a and 20 b, and other ends of the lift cylinders 11 a and 11 b are connected to a draw bar 3 respectively through second support means 21 a and 21 b. The one ends and the other ends of the lift cylinders 11 a and 11 b are offset from each other in a front-rear direction of the motor grader as viewed from above the motor grader. The pair of lift cylinders 11 a and 11 b are disposed inclined as viewed from a side of the motor grader.  With this structure, each end of the lift cylinders 11 a and 11 b and the lifter bracket 7 can be disposed such that a height position of each end of the lift cylinders 11 a and 11 b is substantially equal to a height position of the lifter bracket 7 as viewed from the side of the motor grader. So a visibility hindrance by the pair of lift cylinders can extremely be lowered.

Abstract: An air conditioning cooling coil and its associated drain pan are positionable in either a vertical or horizontal air flow orientation. With the drain pan in its vertical air flow orientation, generally horizontally disposed drainage trough portions of the drain pan around its periphery are sloped relative to one another in a manner such that all coil condensation received in the troughs flows by gravity therethrough into a downwardly projecting condensate well and outwardly through an outlet opening therein. When the drain pan is in its horizontal air flow orientation, the troughs are disposed generally in a vertical plane, and coil condensation falls on a specially designed horizontal drip shield, which may be connected to the pan without tools, separate fasteners or sealing material, and drains along the drip shield into one of the pan troughs for discharge from the main drain opening of the pan.
