Abstract: A carry on cabin trolley with a hard shell and four wheels expands to become a trolley suitcase with the push of two buttons situated on the top part of the suitcase, accommodating trips of longer duration. Using the same buttons the suitcase is contracted into the carry on cabin trolley with the standard dimensions accepted in the cabin compartment of any aircraft.  The above is shown on Fig. 1.  The expansion is achieved with a spring piston or any other automatic/manual lifting mechanism.   Honeycomb structured aluminium core composite panels sandwiched in PVC are used for the construction of the shell of the suitcase, which makes the suitcase lighter and more durable. The suitcase has a single expandable handle with triple usage to hand carry or push the suitcase in 2 different ways. The suitcase provides a lid compartment for the storage and easy access of small items of frequent use.

Inventor: PUDI RENUKA
IPC: C07K14/47
Filed: 2006-04-24
Abstract: Disclosed herein is a small peptide, LaR2C, corresponding to the C terminus of RRM2 of the human La protein that binds to the IRES element of hepatitis C  virus RNA and its derivatives. This invention demonstrates that human La protein interacts with the HCV IRES element both in vitro and in vivo and also shown that this interaction enhances the efficiency of viral RNA translation (Pudi et al, J of Biol Chem, 2003). La protein has three putative RNA  recognition motifs (RRM1-3). It has been established that RRM2 binds with high affinity around the GCAC sequence near the initiator AUG and the binding induces a conformational change in the HCV IRES which is critical for the internal initiation of translation (Pudi et al, J of Biol Chem, 2004).

Title: Generic radar architecture
Inventor: ELLEAUME PHILIPPE
IPC: H04J3/06
Filed: 2006-06-09
Abstract: The invention relates to general architectures of complex electronic and/or information systems for which exchanges are embodied in the form of irregular data fluxes generated by time-varying processing functions. The aim of said invention is to develop an architecture adapted to electronic systems provided with a plurality of processing nodes, wherein each node carries out a function or a part thereof used by the system. Said architecture is built on a single synchronisation link, which supplies a common synchronisation message containing synchronisation data elements and a simplified heading to all modules, and on a plurality of data exchange asynchronous links each of which makes it possible to exchange data between two individual processing nodes, wherein the exchanged messages comprise the processable data elements accompanied by a generic heading. The generic heading of asynchronous links contains the totality of information items related to the system-operating step to which the exchanged data elements correspond. The synchronous link simplified heading makes it possible to determine a stream of data to which the associated synchronisation information items are applicable. Each processing node comprises means for interfacing with synchronous and asynchronous links. Said invention is particularly suitable to the structure of electromagnetic or acoustical sensors such as radars and sonars.

Title: Blades with functional balance asymmetries for use with ultrasonic surgical instruments
Inventor: MESSERLY JEFFREY D
IPC: A61B17/28
Filed: 2000-09-08
Abstract: Disclosed is an ultrasonic surgical instrument that combines end-effector geometry to best affect the multiple functions of a shears-type configuration. The shape of the blade is characterized by a radiused cut offset by some distance to form a curved geometry. The cut creates a curved surface with multiple asymmetries causing multiple imbalances within the blade. Imbalance due to the curve of the instrument is corrected by a non-functional asymmetry proximal to the functional asymmetry.  Imbalance due to the asymmetric cross-section of the blade is corrected by the appropriate selection of the volume and location of material removed from a functional asymmetry. The shape of the blade in one embodiment of the present invention is characterized by two radiused cuts offset by some distance to form a curved and potentially tapered geometry. These two cuts create curved surfaces including a concave surface and a convex surface. The length of the radiused cuts affects, in part, the acoustic balancing of the transverse motion induced by the curved shape.
