Date Oct. 19, 1995A suspension conveyor system with a multiplicity of rollers traveling on a rail network. A load attachment device with a hook designed to carry the hook of a clothes hanger is pivotally mounted on each roller in order to permit loading and unloading of the hook. The load attachment device also has an inclined slide ramp thereon opposite the opening of the hook which engages a leading ramp on a rail parallel to the path of conveyance at a loading/unloading station to pivot the load attachment device into a raised position in which the hook of the clothes hanger to drop through an opening between the slide ramp and onto the rail. When the slide ramp contacts one of a row of clothes hanger already deposited on the rail the load attachment device will pivot upward slightly to lift the end of the hook from the rail thereby releasing the hook of the clothes hanger. The load attachment device will pivot slightly downwards after the slide ramp has cleared the last clothes hanger in the row so that the end of the hook will engage the hook of the last clothes hanger in the row. The rail has a longitudinal recess is formed in its trailing edge which allows the hook to drop below the top surface of the rail and capture the hook the clothes hanger in the bottom of the hook of the load attachment device.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur certains composés nouveaux, leurs dérivés, leur synthèse et leur utilisation en tant qu'antagonistes sélectifs du récepteur adrénergique alpha1C. L'une de leurs applications réside dans le traitement de l'hypertrophie bénigne de la prostate. Ces composés présentent une capacité sélective de relaxation des tissus de muscles lisses enrichis en sous-catégorie du récepteur alpha1-C sans pour autant provoquer d'hypotension orthostatique. L'un de ces tissus entoure l'endothélium de l'urètre. L'un des intérêts de ces composés à action instantanée est donc d'apporter un soulagement rapide aux patients souffrant d'hypertrophie bénigne de la prostate en réduisant les obstacles au flux urinaire, un autre étant que, combinés avec un composé inhibiteur de la 5-alpha réductase humaine, ils peuvent soulager les effets aigus et chroniques de ladite hypertrophie.

Abstract: A corner element of a puzzle game that constitutes a three-dimensional pictorial representation of a building-like structure. The corner element comprises first and second backing members bonded to a flexible lithographic film. A hinge area separates the first and second backing members, allowing to bring them in a corner configuration by folding the lithographic film at the hinge area. The film has an exposed image-bearing surface constituting a pictorial entity that contributes to a complete representation of the building-like structure. The corner element is made from a blank that includes a layer of backing material laminated to the lithographic film. The backing material is die-cut at controlled depth to form the first and second backing members in a spaced apart relationship, separated by a waste strip. Prior to assembling the puzzle pieces, the user is required to peel off the waste strip from the blank in order to form the hinge area between the first and second backing members.

Abstract: Boîtier de fibres optiques comportant un nombre limité de pièces et dont toutes les pièces principales sont fabriquées par découpage, matriçage ou cintrage et comprennent très peu d'éléments de fixation, ce qui limite les coûts et simplifie le montage du boîtier. Malgré sa conception simplifiée, ce boîtier conserve une grande souplesse de montage des fibres et des connecteurs correspondants, ceci étant dû à un châssis unique complètement amovible du boîtier, ainsi qu'à un bâti arrière également amovible du châssis. L'invention concerne également une nouvelle plaque de séparation, ainsi qu'un procédé servant à fixer cette dernière au bâti. Le châssis peut posséder un plancher central affaissé, afin d'utiliser l'espace plus efficacement et de constituer, cependant, des surfaces incurvées, de façon à faire sortir facilement les fibres du boîtier.
