Title: Resin-impregnation of fibers
Inventor: STEWART STEVEN LEE
IPC: B29C35/02
Filed: 1992-05-14
Granted: 1994-09-29
Abstract: Two co-reactive resin streams are mixed immediately adjacent the entrance (54) of an impregnation die (52) used to make products by the pultrusion process. The mixing occurs immediately adjacent the fibers as they are pulled into the central duct opening (58) of the die. The resin streams are delivered to the entrance of the impregnation die by use of a resin feed head (72) positioned at the inlet of the impregnation die. An ultrasonic driver (116) coupled to the resin feed head vibrates and agitates the resin streams impinging the fibers so as to thoroughly wet the fiber bundle prior to its passage through the die. <IMAGE>

Title: Site for access to the inside of a channel, and corresponding cannula
Inventor: CALEFFI LUCA
IPC: A61M39/02
Filed: 2001-12-05
Granted: 2005-06-23
Abstract: A site for access to the inside of a channel (1) comprises a receptable (2), communicating with the inside of the channel (1), in order to hold a plug (4) made of an elastic material and intended to form a leaktight barrier between the inside of the channel (1) and the outside.

Patent AU-612664-B2 (AU)
Title: Originality guarantee
Inventor: KOEHN JOCHEN
IPC: B65D55/02
Filed: 1988-07-07
Granted: 1991-07-18
Abstract: The tamper-proof device for closures of containers, in particular bottles, has a label (12) which, when it has been removed or damaged, makes opening recognisable. The closure parts (4, 6), which are to be moved apart for opening, are provided with flat depressions to accommodate the label (12). The depressions pass from one closure part into the other or others and jointly have the contour and size of the label. If such a label is torn or cut through, this makes opening recognisable. However, the invention prevents the possibility of the label being removed and stuck on again. The abovementioned depression can serve this purpose as it makes it impossible for a user to grip with the fingernail or a tool under the label and lift it off. Instead of a depression, a horseshoe-shaped wall (22) can be provided which surrounds at least part of the label. Said wall can be broken off so that the consumer has access to the label. However, due to parts of the material remaining, the breaking-off of the wall and thus the opening of the container is recognisable. Additionally, the label can be provided with an adhesive which allows only a single bonding operation, thus making it impossible for a removed label to be stuck on again after tampering with the contents.

Title: DNA amplification fingerprinting
Inventor: BASSAM BRANT J
IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 1995-11-24
Granted: 1997-06-26
Abstract: A method for amplifying nucleic acid sequences in a template comprising at least one nucleic acid or mixture of nucleic acids wherein each nucleic acid comprises at least one strand. The method comprises the steps of treating the template with at least one oligonucleotide primer having a nucleic acid sequence that is substantially complementary to at least one nucleic acid sequence on the template under conditions such that the primer will bind to a segment that is substantially complementary to the primer, producing primed strands of nucleic acid. The primed strands produce extension strands, wherein the extension strands comprise the primer in combination with a sequence of nucleic acids that is substantially complementary to the template in a 5' to 3' direction from the primer. The extension strands are further treated with the primer producing amplification strands which are treated with primer. The amplification strands are repeatedly treated with primer to produce large numbers of amplification strands whereby the nucleic acid sequences of the amplification strands are substantially similar to nucleic acid sequences in the original template.

Title: An apparatus for product/water interface measurement in a product storage tank
Inventor: WELCH MICHAEL
IPC: G01F23/284
Filed: 1993-05-27
Granted: 1996-04-04
Abstract: An apparatus and method for measuring the water level at the bottom of a storage tank, the water level being the product-water interface between product and water within the storage tank. The apparatus includes a sensor assembly which is located at the tank bottom. The assembly has a plurality of measurement sensors arranged in a housing having slots for product and water to enter and leave the housing. Each measurement sensor is an open-circuited co-axial transmission line with a probe at its open end which functions as a monopole antenna. In preferred embodiments, the transmission lines are quarter wavelength open-circuited coaxial transmission lines. Each probe is located at a different distance from the tank bottom to cover a measurement range. The transmission lines are excited with signals which are reflected by the probes. As the level of the product-water interface changes on the probes, the capacitance of the probes also change which, in turn, change the amplitude or voltage level of the reflected signals. The voltage measurements are converted to level by a microprocessor.
