Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif (100) servant à transporter des supports (8) de spécimen vers un poste de traitement (40) et comprenant un premier chargeur (1) vertical d'entrée effectuant l'alimentation en supports (8), un deuxième chargeur (6) vertical de sortie effectuant la réception des supports, ainsi qu'un séparateur (3) placé entre le premier et le deuxième chargeurs (1, 6). Ce premier et ce deuxième chargeurs (1, 6) peuvent être placés l'un au-dessus de l'autre. Le premier et le deuxième chargeurs (1, 6) et le séparateur (3) sont, de préférence, alignés verticalement, de sorte que le support (8) suit un trajet droit vertical. Ceci permet d'obtenir un système compact occupant un espace au sol minimum dans un laboratoire. Le séparateur (3) reçoit les supports (8) les uns après les autres depuis le chargeur d'entrée (1) et les déplace verticalement vers un poste de traitement (40). Après le traitement, le séparateur (3) transfère ensuite chaque support vers un emplacement de sortie au niveau duquel le support est transféré jusqu'au chargeur de sortie (6). Le séparateur (3) peut déplacer un support (8) vers le haut ou vers le bas au niveau du poste de traitement (40) indépendamment de tout mouvement des supports (8) dans les chargeurs d'entrée et/ou de sortie (1, 6). La commande des chargeurs d'entrée et de sortie (1, 6) s'effectue simplement sous l'effet de la gravité mais l'invention ne se limite pas à cette possibilité. L'unité d'entraînement (10) du séparateur est, de préférence, un moteur pas-à-pas ou un servomoteur à courant continu.

Title: Self-cleaning water filter
Inventor: LAING DAVID A
IPC: B01D29/64
Filed: 2002-06-04
Granted: 2008-08-12
Abstract: A self-cleaning water filter, coupled to a water flow having particulates therein, that includes a pair of canisters, each having a cylindrical wedge wire water filter screen. An elongated brush running the length of the screen is disposed between two confining walls also running the length of the screen to form a chamber. A elongated partition, including two sets of apertures, is used, along with the elongated brush, to divide the chamber into two particulate dislodge chambers and a drain subchamber. A drain is in fluid communication with the drain subchamber. During cleaning, the drain is opened and the screen is rotated against the brush for liberating the particulate contaminants and a limited amount of the water flow into the two dislodge subchambers. The particulate contaminants and the limited amount of water then pass through the apertures at a high velocity and into the drain subchamber which exits through the drain. Alternatively, a reverse flow of clean water can be used in combination with the elongated brush, for dislodging the particulate contaminants from the water filter. Finally, another variation of using a reverse flow of water for cleaning purposes is discussed whereby a stationary water filter is disposed in a system that isolates the water filter from the normal water flow during cleaning.

Title: Reset lockout and trip for circuit interrupting device
Inventor: GERMAIN FRANTZ
IPC: H01H83/04
Filed: 2003-04-29
Granted: 2011-11-29
Abstract: This invention relates to a circuit interrupting device having a trip button for disconnecting a Ioad from a source of electrical power and a reset button for resetting the device after it has tripped. When the device is operating in its reset state, a source of electrical power is connected to a load through a set of contacts located within the device. The contacts are held closed by the spring loaded reset button which holds captive and urges a latch plate to move up to close normally open contacts. In the preferred mechanical trip mechanism, depressing the trip button causes the latch plate to move forward and be released from the reset button. The latch plate, upon being released from the reset button moves down to allow the contacts, which are biased to be normally open, to assume their normally open position. At this time, pressing the reset button initiates an electrical cycle which causes the normally open contacts to close only if the device is operating properly and there is no fault on the Line. The device described is mechanically tripped and electrically reset, and it can be tripped without power being supplied to the device.

Abstract: A novel group of gastrokines called Gastric Antrum Mucosal Protein is characterized. A member of the group is designated AMP-18. AMP-18 genomic DNA, cDNA and the AMP-18 protein are sequenced for human, mouse and pig. The AMP-18 protein and active peptides derived from it are cellular growth factors. Surprisingly, peptides capable of inhibiting the effects of the complete protein, are also derived from the AMP-18 protein. Cytoprotection and control of mammalian gastro-intestinal tissue growth and repair (restitution) is facilitated by the use of the proteins, making the protein candidates for therapies in inflammatory bowel disease and gastric ulcers.

Granted: 2010-05-25
Abstract: Switching valve utilizing a rotatable seal suitable for use in a regenerative thermal oxidizer (10), and oxidizer (10) including the switching valve (20).  The valve (20) of the present invention exhibits excellent sealing characteristics and minimizes wear. The valve (20) has a seal plate (100) that defines two chambers, each chamber being a flow port (25) that leads to one of two regenerative beds of the oxidizer (10). The valve (20) also includes a switching flow distributor (50) that provides alternate channeling of the inlet or outlet process gas to each half of the seal plate. The valve operates between two modes: a stationary mode and a valve movement mode. In the stationary mode, a tight gas seal is used to minimize or prevent process gas leakage. The gas seal also seals during valve movement.
