Patent AU-718089-B2 (AU)
Title: Signal modulating method, signal modulating apparatus, signal demodulating method and signal demodulating apparatus
Inventor: OKAZAKI TORU
IPC: H03M13/31
Filed: 1999-01-08
Granted: 2000-04-06
Abstract: In the present invention, a partly duplexed conversion table is used as a conversion table for converting an M-bit based data string directly into an N-bit based code string without using margin bits. This conversion table is constituted by first and second sub-tables including plural code groups, respectively. The plural code groups include different codes for the same input data. The second sub-table is a table which is partly duplexed with the first sub-table and is produced by allocating different codes to data from first input data to second input data in the first sub-table. The first and second sub-tables are so designed that code sets of the duplexed portions take variants of digital sum variations which are opposite in sign. Codes are allocated to all the code groups in the duplexed portions of the first and second sub-tables with respect to input data sequentially from a code having a maximum absolute value of variant of the digital sum variation. Thus, according to the present invention, low frequency components of modulated signals may be restricted properly.

Filed: 1988-08-26
Granted: 1991-01-03
Abstract: A resilient squeeze bottle dispensing package capable of dispensing viscous products without excessive air entrainment and belching on successive dispensing cycles. In a preferred embodiment, the viscous product (60) is preferably suspended inside a resilient squeeze bottle (12) in a thin flexible bag (10). The flexible bag (10) is secured about its perimeter to the interior of the squeeze bottle at its top (14) and approximately at its midpoint (11) to facilitate both complete emptying of product and desirable suckback characteristics when the opposed squeezing forces are removed from the resilient outer wall of the bottle. A suckback valve (30) is located between the dispensing orifice (20) in the shroud of the package and the flexible bag (10) to limit the amount of air which can enter the package through the dispensing orifice (20) at the conclusion of each dispensing cycle and to prevent slumping of viscous product remaining in the shroud (22) into the bottom of the flexible bag (10) between dispensing cycles. An air check valve (1) is preferably provided in the bottom (2) of the resilient squeeze bottle to facilitate a pressure buildup within the bottle when opposed squeezing forces are applied thereto.

Title: Improving the water-resistance of fine-vermiculite articles
Inventor: ATKINSON ALAN WILLIAM
IPC: C04B41/50
Filed: 1989-04-20
Granted: 1991-06-06
Abstract: Certain articles required to function in air at temperatures of 250 DEG C or higher comprise very fine particles of vermiculite from which the interstitial magnesium ions have been at least partially removed and which has been swollen in water. These articles are not ordinarily exposed to water when in use, but if they are they are likely to disintegrate quickly because of the ready dispersibility of the vermiculite particles. By the invention, water-resistance is given to such articles by treating them with a solution of an aluminate salt eg NaAlO2 or a zirconyl salt eg ZrOCl2.

Title: Fatty acid-drug conjugate for delivery of the drug across the blood-brain barrier
IPC: A61K31/165
Filed: 1989-02-24
Granted: 1993-03-18
Abstract: The invention involves the formation of a prodrug from a fatty acid carrier and a neuroactive drug. The prodrug is stable in the environment of both the stomach and the bloodstream and may be delivered by ingestion. The prodrug passes readily through the blood brain barrier. Once in the central nervous system, the prodrug is hydrolyzed into the fatty acid carrier and the drug to release the drug. In a preferred embodiment, the carrier is 4,7,10,13,16,19 docosahexa-enoic acid and the drug is dopamine. Both are normal components of the central nervous system. The covalent bond between the drug and the carrier preferably is an amide bond, which bond may survive the conditions in the stomach. Thus, the prodrug may be ingested and will not be hydrolyzed completely into the carrier molecule and drug molecule in the stomach.

Granted: 2002-05-16
Abstract: A method of manufacturing spectacles by obtaining accurate frame shape information without performing a frame shape measurement in the spectacle store. In this method, frame shape information is first obtained after a spectacle frame is manufactured in a factory. Moreover, frame-related information, which includes the obtained frame shape information, or readout information, according to which this frame-related information is read out, is preliminarily added to the spectacle frame. Thereafter, in a spectacle store, the frame-related information is read from the spectacle itself or from a storage unit or the like by using the information added to the spectacle frame as a key. Thus, frame shape information, which is needed when obtaining lens processing information, is obtained therein. The present invention further provides a spectacle frame for use in this method. <IMAGE>
