Patent AU-6286200-A (AU)
Title: Articulated arm for transferring fluid products balanced with springs in wide displacement
Inventor: PELLETIER FREDERIC
IPC: B67D7/00
Filed: 2000-06-13
Abstract: The invention proposes an articulated arm for transferring fluid products comprising two tubular sections (7, 8+2) connected to each other by a rotating joint (3) with a horizontal axis, and one of which, mobile in rotation, has an angular reference configuration in which it is balanced despite the effect of gravity. A balancing device (4, 10) compensates for variations in the effect of gravity on this mobile tubular section as a function of the orientation of this vis-a-vis the vertical, it is mounted between a fixed reference portion and a linkage portion of the mobile tubular section which is at a distance other than zero from the axis of rotation; it includes a spring (10) which tends to return the mobile section to its angular reference configuration (it is then idle) and applying to the mobile tubular section a force which is approximately proportional to the distance between this linkage portion and the location of this linkage portion in the angular reference configuration.
Patent AU-6303200-A (AU)
Title: Acoustic communication system
Inventor: BARTLETT DAVID
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2000-07-31
Abstract: A toy system is described in which a data signal is encoded using spread spectrum technology to form a spread signal which is combined with an audio track to form a modified audio track. The modified audio track is then transmitted as an acoustic signal to a toy having an electro-acoustic transducer for converting the acoustic signal into an electrical signal which is then despread in order to regenerate the data signal, and the toy responds to the data signal. By using spread spectrum technology to spread the data signal over a wide frequency range, the spread signal in the modified audio track can be made virtually inaudible to a listener. The techniques described have relevance to acoustic communication systems other than toy systems.

Patent AU-6729787-A (AU)
Title: Sleeve-type carrier
Inventor: WILSON JERRY FRANKLIN
IPC: B65D5/10
Filed: 1986-11-10
Abstract: A sleeve-type beverage can carrier having end dust flaps which mechanically interlock by means of locking tabs and cutouts. The flap containing the cutouts overlaps the flap containing the locking tabs so that the cutouts and tabs are aligned. The locking tab is folded back to allow the flap with the cutouts to be moved into place, then is inserted through the cutout and also through the portion of the bottom flap from which the locking tab was struck. This provides a secure mechanical lock. In addition, the blank from which the carrier is formed is designed so that the space between dust flaps is identical in shape to that of the dust flaps. This allows multiple widths of blanks to be cut from the sheet stock without scrap loss.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI82/00050 Sec. 371 Date Jun. 27, 1983 Sec. 102(e) Date Jun. 27, 1983 PCT Filed Oct. 27, 1982 PCT Pub. No. WO83/01679 PCT Pub. Date May 11, 1983.The invention concerns an automatic, mass-obturated hand firearm comprising a body (1) with handle (2), a barrel (3) joined to the body, a breech block (4) with guide (5) constituted by the body and with cocking and firing mechanism (7), the guide of the breech block ascending rearward so that the rearward path of motion of the breech block deviates upward from the center-line (8) of the barrel. The purpose is to eliminate the problem of automatic hand firearms that during shooting the barrel tends to rise upwards. As taught by the invention, when the breech block (4) is in its forward position its center of gravity (9) is located forward of the handle (2). The breech block (4) is preferably disposed to have its major part forward of the rear end (10) of the barrel (3). Furthermore, the center of gravity (9) of the breech block (4) is preferably located forward of the rear end (10) of the barrel (3). The guide (5) of the breech block (4) forms a preferably obliquely forward and downward inclined surface, against which the breech block rests so that when the rearward directed recoil force acts on the breech block this plug moves rearward and the surface of the breech block hits against the surface of the guide, producing on the body (1) a moment turning downward the muzzle of the barrel (3).

Abstract: A semiconstrained prosthetic knee for surgical replacement of a dysfunctional knee includes a tibial platform, a movable bearing element, and a femoral component. The femoral and tibial components are typically constructed of a cobalt-chromium alloy and each includes an extension for securing the component to the bone. The femoral component includes a polycentric convex bearing which slidably engages a movable bearing, typically constructed of high molecular weight polyethylene.

The inferior surface of the femoral component is generally convex with two or more offset portions of varying radii of curvature matching complimentary superior surfaces of the bearing element. The inferior surface of the femoral component may have more than one radii of curvature at different points along the convex surface. The superior surface of the tibial platform is generally flat and includes at least one protrusion for controlling the movement of the bearing element.
