Patent AU-3889195-A (AU)
Title: High solids copolymer dispersion from a latex and its use in sealants
Inventor: DUNAWAY JAMES H
IPC: C08F291/00
Filed: 1995-10-04
Abstract: A method for polymerizing predominantly one or more acrylate and/or vinyl acetate monomers in the presence of a latex results in high solids dispersions of polymer particles with lower viscosities than traditionally observed. A significant wt. % of added monomers can be present in large particles, having nonspherical shapes. Some of the original latex particles are retained during the polymerization and these increase the solids content and lower the viscosity by packing in the interstices between large particles. The total polymer solids content can easily be varied from 70 to 92 or more wt. % which are higher than achieved in any previously reported aqueous polymerizations. The viscosities at very high solids contents become paste-like but the materials still are stable to storage and further handling without breaking the dispersion into an agglomerated polymer portion and released water. The dispersions are useful to form sealants, membranes, etc., either with or without other additives. A preferred use is as an acrylate water-based caulking compound where the high solids and thixotropy of the dispersion allows for formation of a water-based caulk with low shrinkage.

Title: Remote smart filtering communication management system
Inventor: NILAKANTAN CHANDRASEKHARAN
IPC: H04L12/56
Filed: 1995-10-12
Abstract: Network traffic from a central device across a communication link to a remote device is controlled based upon central traffic management resources in the central device. The central traffic management resources are coupled to a communication link and monitor data packets received across the communication link to learn characteristics of the remote network. Based on the learned characteristics, traffic management messages are generated in the central traffic management resources. These messages are forwarded to an interface device on the remote network, where traffic on the communication link is controlled in response to the traffic management messages. Thus, the remote interface is configured automatically by central traffic management resources running in the central device without human intervention at the remote network. The traffic management messages manage traffic across a communication link of two types. First, traffic management messages identify types of packets to be forwarded from the remote interface across the communication link. Second, traffic management messages identify types of packets to be composed by the remote interface for communication to users of the remote network. Thus, packages originating on the remote network are filtered so that only necessary packets are forwarded to the central site. Similarly, packets which normally originate from the central site are "spoofed" at the remote site in response to management messages generated at the central site. The central traffic management resources execute a transport protocol for the traffic management messages which are independent of a network address for the remote interface.
Patent AU-4037395-A (AU)
Title: Genomic DNA fragments containing regulatory and coding sequences for the Beta2-subunit of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptor and transgenic animals made using these fragments or mutated fragments
Inventor: CHANGEUX JEAN-PIERRE
IPC: C12N15/85
Filed: 1995-12-13
Abstract: Several genes encoding subunits of the neuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors have been cloned and regulatory elements involved in the transcription of the  alpha :2 and  alpha :7-subunit genes have been described. Yet, the detailed mechanisms governing the neuron-specific transcription and the spatio-temporal expression pattern of these genes remain largely uninvestigated. The  beta 2-subunit is the most widely expressed neuronal nicotinic receptors subunit in the nervous system. We have studied the structural and regulatory properties of the 5' sequence of this gene. A fragment of 1163 bp of upstream sequence is sufficient to drive the cell-specific transcription of a reporter gene in both transient transfection assays and in transgenic mice. Deletion analysis and site-directed mutagenesis of this promoter reveal two negative and one positive element. The positively acting sequence includes one functional E-box. One of the repressor elements is located in the transcribed region and is the NRSE/RE1 sequence already described in promoters of neuronal genes.

Title: Method for the coating of a potato product
Inventor: STOVER REINHOLD
IPC: A23P20/13
Filed: 2001-01-10
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the production of a potato product, coated by means of starch, in particular, of baton-shaped potato products (chips/french fries). The coating bulk (mass) contains starch and optionally various spices, or other food additives and is of a liquid, pasty or powdery consistency. The aim of the invention is to improve the quality of the potato products. Said aim is achieved with a method for production of a potato product, coated or moistened with a coating mass, in particular, a baton-shaped product (chips/french fries), whereby the baton-shaped product is transported through a drum and turned at least once during said transportation and/or displaced perpendicular to the direction of transport and/or revolved. The coating mass is added either dissolved in a fluid, or dry, during the introduction of the potato product into the drum and/or to the drum.

Patent AU-4484700-A (AU)
Title: Scr top connector
Inventor: HAUN RICHARD DAVID
IPC: F16L21/08
Filed: 2000-04-20
Abstract: A mechanical joint assembly (600, 610, 700, 800, 900) for a steel catenary riser (400) (SCR). The lower section of the mechanical joint assembly (600, 610, 700, 800, 900) is comprised of steel or alternate high strength components, rather than elastomers to absorb the high loads and increase life of the unit. The lower mechanical joint assembly provides for reduction of bending moments and resulting fatigue stresses at the SCR top by removing resistance to movement in all angular directions, providing increased construction tolerances for the pipeline approach corridor. Pipeline approach angle increase is accommodated by providing dual orthogonal trunnions (635, 681) in addition to an axial swivel. The upper mechanical joint assembly, acting without riser tension loads, allows for the use of either flexible high-pressure pipe or swivel arrangements (700) to accommodate angular flexure before the rigid deck piping (500). The mechanical joint assembly provides for upstream (900) and downstream (800) valving for safety and maintenance without decreasing the fatigue life of SCR's.
