Title: Device for ejection of ground coffee pressed into a cake from a brewing apparatus of a coffee machine
Inventor: LUESSI ANDRE
IPC: A47J31/24
Filed: 1992-07-28
Granted: 2000-11-21
Abstract: The ejecting device comprises an ejector (17) which is pivotably secured to an infusion cylinder (9) arranged to move along a parallel drive spindle (6) and a lug (22) arranged towards the bottom of a side-membee (2) of a frame (I). A second piston (8) arranged to move in the infusion cylinder (9) can be moved to the upper end of said infusion cylindee (9) as the latter moves downwards. A compressed block of ground coffee (40) is forced out of the infusion cylinder (9) during the movement. It lies on the convex surface (42) of the second piston (8). The ejector (17) comprises two pivoted levers (18, 19) extending along the infusion cylinder (9) and beside it. In the lower region of the infusion cylinder (9) they are pivotable about an axis (23). The ends of the pivoting levers (18, 19) away from the axis are connected to an ejector plate (20). One of the pivoting levers has an L-shaped extension (21). This co-operates with the lug (22) as an actuator to cause the ejector (17) to pivot outwards. Because both one end (41) of the infusion cylinder (9) and the surface (42) of the second piston (8) are convex and mutually matched in such a way that a sliding surface (50) of the ejection plate (20) passes across the surfaces (41, 42) virtually without any gaps when the ejector pivots, the compressed block can be stripped off without any significant quantity of grounds' being left behind.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for separating high density lipoproteins from blood serum or plasma. The method involves contacting the blood sample with an absorbant material comprising porous silica or silicate to adsorb the high density lipoprotein in preference to other lipoproteins in the blood sample. When combined with means for removing very low density lipoproteins and chylomicrons from the blood sample, the remaining low density lipoproteins can be measured directly.

Abstract: A triode-type electrophoretic display (10) includes a pair of substantially identical glass faceplates (12, 14) sealed against a peripheral sealing wall (16) to form a fluid-tight envelope for containing an electrophoretic fluid. A first faceplate (12) bears the anode which is composed of a plurality of elongated substanitially parallel vertical conductor members (18) disposed within a first plane and a plurality of elongated substantially parallel vertical conductor member(20). The horizontal and vertical members are insulated from each other by interstitial insulator strips underlying the vertical members and by a SiO2 layer. The vertical and horizontal members are slotted and grouped into: groups so that the area of the intersection of a vertical group and a horizontal group approximates that of a single character. The cathode and grid are formed on the other faceplate in essentially the same manner as the composite anode. By placing the proper voltages on the horizontal and vertical elements of the anode, selective characters  may be erased from the display.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for the non-intrusive testing of evaporative fuel vapor systems of motor vehicles.          A portable pressure control and monitoring unit is inserted into the fuel filler neck of a vehicle. The vapor vent line, leading from the fuel tank to the charcoal canister of the evaporative system, is temporarily clamped off.          Pressurized gas is introduced into the unit from an operator's console, expanding a ring bladder and sealing an annular volume between the unit and the filler neck. Gas is then passed through the unit into the contained volume of the evaporative system. After the neck cap is replaced, an automatic timer deflates the ring bladder, charging the remaining volume of the evaporative system. Pressure decay data is collected and stored in the unit's digital storage device Initially, this data is used in a pass/fail determination made by a microprocessor in the unit. Later, the data is downloaded into a separate computer for archival purposes.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a quilted film laminate wherein a film having a plurality of generally parallel slits is laminated to a substrate layer such as a fibrous nonwoven web.      Due to processing conditions, once the slit film layer and substrate layer have been laminated to one another, the composite is allowed to retract thereby giving the composite a puckered or quilted appearance with an undulating surface.      The undulating surface also causes the slits to form a plurality of openings which are generally perpendicular to the central plane of the film. In addition, due to the undulating nature of the surface of the film, the apertures so created reside in, above and below the central plane of the film layer. The composite so produced has a wide variety of uses not the least of which include a cover material or body side liner for personal care absorbent products. The process for producing the composite is also disclosed.

Title: Hematopoietic facilitatory cells and their uses
Inventor: ILDSTAD SUZANNE T
IPC: A61K35/28
Filed: 1993-07-09
Granted: 2006-09-19
Abstract: The present invention relates to mammalian hematopoietic facilitatory cells (FC). In particular, it relates to the isolation, characterization and uses of the FC. The FC of the present invention can be distinguished from all other known bone marrow cells by their morphology, cell surface phenotype and in vivo function. It has now been established that purified hematopoietic stem cells alone or bone marrow cells depleted of FC do not readily engraft in a recipient. When co-administered with other bone marrow cells, especially the hematopoietic stem cells into a recipient, the FC  enhance their engraftment, without apparent adverse biologic activities. In fact, the ability of the FC to enhance the engraftment of bone marrow cells in establishing lymphohematopoietic chimerism without producing graft versus host disease also induces donor-specific tolerance to permit the permanent acceptance of donor's cells, tissues and organs. Therefore, FC may have a wide range of applications, including, but not limited to, hematopoietic reconstitution by bone marrow transplantation for the treatment of cancers, anemias, autoimmunity, immunodeficiency, viral infections and metabolic disorders as well as facilitation of solid organ, tissue and cellular transplantation.

Abstract: Dynamo-electric machine armatures which have commutators and cores that are axially close to one another are wound with the aid of wire guiding hooking plates that are inclined to reach into the portion of the commutator that is axially adjacent to the core where the coil leads must be attached to the commutator. The hooking plate may also perform an additional extension motion in order to press the coil leads out of the way of a subsequent fusing operation.    This function may alternatively be performed by a separate pusher member which is either associated with the hooking plate or independent of the hooking plate.      The fusing electrode may be specially shaped to facilitate performing fusing operations axially close to the armature core.
