Abstract: PCT No. PCT/CA91/00006 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 21, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 21, 1993 PCT Filed Jan. 8, 1991 PCT Pub. No. WO92/00152 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 9, 1992.This invention pertains to a method and apparatus for reclaiming gypsum from waste paper laminated gypsum wallboard. The invention is directed to an apparatus that is useful for separating paper laminate from gypsum wallboard comprising: a roller and a plate spatially disposed from the roller. The aperture between the roller and the plate is sized to be slightly less than the wallboard thickness thereby creating a fracturing action between the gypsum and the paper laminate. The first roller can be driven by a power source. A roller can be substituted for the plate and can be undriven or driven independently of the first roller.

Title: Use of isovaleramide as a mild anxiolytic and mild sedative agent
Inventor: BALANDRIN MANUEL F
IPC: A61K31/16
Filed: 1994-06-10
Granted: 1999-01-28
Abstract: Isovaleramide has been found to exhibit mild anxiolytic activity at low to moderate dosage levels and mildly sedative at somewhat higher dosage levels. In contrast to certain other materials thought to be anxiolytic or mildly sedative, isovaleramide is non-cytotoxic and does not paradoxically stimulate the central nervous system. Isovaleramide is therefore useful as a mild anxiolytic and mild sedative which can be made available to the general public.

Title: Novel enzymes and metabolites involved in skatole metabolism
Inventor: SQUIRES E JAMES
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 2000-09-29
Granted: 2005-06-16
Abstract: Novel metabolites and enzymes involved in skatole metabolism are disclosed. The novel metabolites are 3-OH-3-methylindolenine (HMI); 3-methyloxindole (3MOI); indole-3-carbinol (I-3C); and 2-aminoacetophenone (2-AM). Measuring levels of these metabolites in a pig may be useful in identifying the pig's ability to metabolize skatole and its susceptibility to boar taint. The novel enzymes involved in skatole metabolism are aldehyde oxidase and CYP2A6. Enhancing the activity of these enzymes may be useful in enhancing skatole metabolism and reducing boar taint. The identification of the enzyme also allows the development of screening assays for substances that interact with these enzymes and skatole metabolism or for genetic screening to identify pigs on the basis of their skatole metabolism. Pigs having high levels of these enzymes may be selected and bred to produce pigs that have a lower incidence of boar taint.

Title: Ink bottle with puncturable diaphragm closure
Inventor: DROEGE CURTIS R
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 1998-07-23
Granted: 2002-05-02
Abstract: This invention relates to a replaceable ink container or bottle (1) for an ink jet printing apparatus in which the mouth of the bottled is closed by a puncturable diaphragm (19). A puncturing member (35) carried by the ink reservoir (21) of the ink jet printing apparatus pierces through the diaphragm upon the container being installed in the ink jet printing apparatus. Upon the puncturing member (35) puncturing through the diaphragm (19), the diaphragm sealingly engages the sides of the puncturing tube so as to substantially prevent the ink from leaking therepast, and the puncturing tube opens communication between the ink within the container and the ink reservoir thereby permitting ink to flow from the bottle into the ink reservoir via the puncturing member. An air path (37) is provided which is in communication with the atmosphere and with the reservoir so that ink from within the container and atmospheric air may be exchanged via the puncturing member so that ink is free to flow from the container into the reservoir, and so that the pressure within the container is maintained substantially at atmospheric pressure. A method of supplying ink to such an ink jet printing apparatus also is disclosed.

Abstract: Information is transmitted by the time-division multiplex system from individual stations to a central control in an interrogation cycle, using counters whose capacity equals the number of steps in the cycle. the stations contain several groups of information storage devices having different priorities. Groups having the same priority are allocated consecutive stages in the counters which can be set in partial cycles. Synchronous operation of all the counters is effected by a clock generator which generates a series of pulses for at least the first partial cycle in each interrogation cycle. Pref. the number of clock pulses for one or more associated partial cycles can be programmed.

Patent JP-3598119-B2 (JP)
IPC: G11C11/413
Filed: 1993-02-01
Granted: 2004-12-08
Abstract: An integrated circuit memory is disclosed which has its primary memory array arranged into blocks and which has redundant columns, each of which can replace a column in any one of the blocks. The redundant columns are selected by way of a redundant column decoder, associated with each column. A plurality of redundant sense amplifiers are each associated with selected redundant columns. Each of the redundant column decoders includes a set of address fuses for storing the column address responsive to which its associated redundant column is to be selected, and which are in series with pass gates which are turned on when redundancy is enabled, and turned off otherwise. This arrangement of address fuses and pass gates reduces and balances the loading of the decoder on the address lines, may be implemented with fewer transistors and thus in reduced chip area relative to conventional decoders, and also reduces the propagation delay through the decoder. The coupling of each redundant sense amplifier is controlled by a redundant multiplexer associated with each of the input/output terminals. Each redundant multiplexer receives the redundant column select signals from each redundant column decoder corresponding thereto, and includes fuses which indicate if its input/output terminal is to be placed in communication with its associated sense amplifier upon selection of a redundant column. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Respective samples of input speech data are transformed by a discrete Fourier transformer to obtain a spectrum of the speech data. Simultaneously, values of times of the respective samples are multiplied with the input speech data by a multiplier and a differential spectrum is obtained by transforming a result of the multiplication by a discrete Fourier transformer. A real part of a value obtained by dividing the differential spectrum by the spectrum by a quotient real part calculator and the real part is inverse-transformed by a discrete inverse Fourier transformer. The result of the inverse-transformation is divided by the values of the times of the respective samples to obtain a time function corresponding to phase. On the other hand, a time function corresponding to a logarithmic amplitude spectrum is obtained from an output of the inverse-Fourier transformer by means of a logarithmic amplitude spectrum calculator. A complex cepstrum is obtained by adding the both time functions at respective times by an adder.

Patent JP-S5625362-B2 (JP)
IPC: B27K3/50
Filed: 1977-03-15
Abstract: A wood treating impregnant is deposited in wood by a non-aqueous wood treating system that has the ability to control the distribution, to immobilize and to more permanently fix the impregnant in the wood. The wood is treated with a liquid carrier containing the impregnant and a reactive solvent so that both the impregnant and reactive solvent penetrate into the wood. The reactive solvent is soluble in the liquid carrier and the impregnant is substantially insoluble in the liquid carrier but soluble in the reactive solvent. After the impregnant, reactive solvent and liquid carrier have penetrated the wood, the reactive solvent is reacted to become a nonsolvent for the impregnant. Since the impregnant is no longer soluble in the reacted reactive solvent, the impregnant is immobilized in the wood and, therefore, is unable to bloom. After the reaction, the liquid carrier and optionally the reacted reactive solvent are recovered from the treated wood which is clean and need not be washed.
