Inventor: TOBACCOWALA SAFDARALI
IPC: B07C7/00
Filed: 2000-03-24
Abstract: A garment sorter for semi-automating the sorting of bulk used clothing, and a method of sorting such clothing. Bales of clothing are uncompressed, and single articles of clothing are fed to an operator. Equally, the system can be used for sorting loose clothing.

Abstract: The present invention provides methods for enhancing the development of APC from precursor cells by administering a combination of GM-CSF and IL-4. The precursor cells include: cells contained in peripheral blood, CD14<+> cells and precursors in bone marrow. Thus, administration of GM-CSF  and IL-4 can be used as a form of cytokine immunotherapy. One embodiment of the present invention involves systemic administration of GM-CSF and IL-4. In this embodiment, APC are required to directly access tumor antigens as they exist in vivo within the patient. A further embodiment of the present invention involves co-administration of a tumor-associated or tumor-specific antigen, with GM-CSF and IL-4, to induce antigen-specific immunity mediated by APC. Yet another embodiment of the present invention describes systemic administration of GM-CSF and IL-4 to achieve reduced tumor burden.

Title: Catalytic multi-phase reactor
Inventor: RYTTER ERLING
IPC: C10G2/00
Filed: 1993-02-24
Abstract: A reactor for conducting a continuous multi-phase catalytic reaction such as the conversion of syngas to higher hydrocarbon fuels. Gaseous reactants are introduced via a gas-permeable plate into a slurry which includes the product and a finely divided catalyst. The liquid product is separated from the remainder of the slurry by means of a filter unit including a filter member. A pressure differential is established across the filter member by means of a constant level device within the filter unit which maintains a level of filtrate within the filter unit below the level of the slurry. The slurry is maintained in a constant state of agitation by the introduction of the gaseous components as a steam of bubbles. Fluctuations in the pressure differential across the filter member prevent the filter member from clogging and the gas spaces above the filtrate and the slurry are in communication.

Title: Method and apparatus for inverse quantization of mpeg-4 video
Inventor: CHEN XUEMIN
IPC: H04N7/50
Filed: 1999-04-27
Abstract: Inverse quantization (36, 44, 60) of a two-dimensional array of video coefficients QF[v][u] is provided. A first weighting matrix {overscore (W)}[0][v][u]=2*W[0][v][u] for intra-coded macroblocks and a second weighting matrix {overscore (W)}[1][v][u]=2*W[1][v][u] for non-intra-coded macroblocks are pre-computed and stored (88). A quantization difference (quanti+1)to be used in selecting a weight factor is computed (70) based on a current macroblock quantization level. The weight factor is output from one of the weighting matrices in response to the quantization difference and a macroblock type identifier (66) (i.e., intra-coded or non-intra-coded). Subsequent weights Wi+1[w][v][u] are then computed (86) from a current weight Wi[w][v][u] and the weight factor. The array of coefficients QF[v][u] is multiplied (92) by the weights Wi+1[w][v][u] to reconstruct unquantized coefficients.

Filed: 1985-07-17
Abstract: A method and apparatus wherein there is provided a source (11) of fiber forming material, with said fiber forming material being pumped into a die (23) having a plurality of spinnerets about its periphery. The die (23) is rotated at a predetermined adjustable speed, whereby the liquid is expelled from the die (23) so as to form fibers (25). it is preferred that the fiber forming material be cooled as it is leaving the holes in the spinnerets during drawdown.
