Title: Procede de nettoyage et de lavage a contre-courant
Inventor: JOHNSON WARREN THOMAS
IPC: B01D65/02

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé destiné à concentrer les solides d'une suspension liquide par utilisation d'un différentiel de pression dans les parois de membranes creuses perméables (6) immergées dans une suspension liquide (9). On applique la suspension liquide (9) sur la surface extérieure des membranes creuses poreuses (6) de façon à induire et entretenir la filtration à travers les parois de membranes (12), une partie de la suspension liquide traversant les parois (12) des membranes (6) en vue d'une récupération sous forme de liquide clarifié ou de perméat à partir des lumières de membranes creuses (11). En outre, une partie au moins des solides sont retenus sur ou dans les membranes creuses (6), ou sous la forme de solides en suspension dans le liquide (9) entourant les membranes (6). Ce procédé consiste à réaliser périodiquement le lavage à contre-courant des pores de membranes au moyen du perméat par application d'un gaz à une pression inférieure au point de bulle sur les lumières de membranes (11), ce qui permet de déplacer progressivement une partie au moins du perméat liquide dans les lumières (11) par l'intermédiaire des pores de membranes, d'où l'évacuation des solides retenus sur ou dans les membranes creuses en direction de la masse liquide (9) entourant les membranes (6).

Title: Extractor for towed linear antenna or the like
Inventor: SUPPA VITO
IPC: H02G1/10
Filed: 2004-07-15
Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for the automatic hauling of very long elongate objects. This device in particular allows very long tubular objects of relatively flexible and delicate structure such as, in particular, underwater cables, pipes or alternatively linear sonar antennas of the "streamer" type to be handled. The device chiefly comprises traction means consisting of at least two running strips with rough surfaces which are pressed on each side of the object and drag it along in a traction movement and gripping means which constantly keep the running strips pressed against the object in order to ensure good adhesion. Another subject of the invention is means for actuating the traction means and the gripping means in a coordinated manner so that the object that is to be hauled experiences continuous traction throughout the hauling operation. The device according to the invention has the advantage of being mounted on a stationary chassis and therefore of not requiring an operating area. It is thus particularly intended for vessels where the available space is restricted, such as submarines.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for isolating non-embryonic stem cells from a tissue that is located in immediate vicinity of immature, developing teeth or wisdom teeth. The invention further relates to non-embryonic stem cells derived from said tissue. The method according to the invention utilises a living soft tissue residing underneath the dental papilla 12 in immediate vicinity of the apical side of a developing tooth, which is clearly distinguished from other tooth tissue, such as dental papilla 12 or follicle. The pad-like tissue 16 can only be detected in a defined, specific developmental stage in an early phase of root formation. That is, identifying and separating the pad-like tissue 16 is only possible from the appearance of the bony alveolar fundus to the end of the formation of the root of the tooth.
