Title: Hypodermic syringe with selectively retractable needle
Inventor: COHN SIMON
IPC: A61M5/32
Filed: 2001-08-28
Abstract: A hypodermic syringe with a selectively retractable needle includes an elongate barrel having an open proximal end, an open distal end and a hollow bore. The syringe includes an elongate plunger including a hollow outer housing having an open proximal end and an open distal end. The plunger has a hollow inner sleeve defining a cavity therein. The plunger has releasable engagement elements preventing relative axial movement between the outer housing and the inner sleeve, the elements allowing the relative axial movement when released and a distal stopper. There is an open cutter mounted at a proximal end of the inner sleeve to cut through the stopper to expose the cavity in the inner sleeve when the engagement elements are released and sufficient distal axial force is applied to the plunger. The syringe has a hub housing with an open proximal end having an inwardly projecting shoulder, a hub with a proximal flange and an axial stem, sized to fit within the hub housing. There is a spring disposed about the stem between the flange and the shoulder. The syringe has a needle with a sharp point extending outwardly. The needle retracts into the cavity in the plunger when sufficient distal force is applied to the plunger to release the engagement elements. The release allows movement of the inner sleeve with respect to the outer housing so that the cutter cuts through the stopper and the flange and the spring urges movement of the needle into the cavity.

Title: Authenticating or signature method with reduced computations
Inventor: GIRAULT MARC
IPC: G09C1/00
Filed: 2000-01-26
Abstract: Authentication and signature process with reduced number of calculations. The process involves a first entity called the “prover”, which possesses a public key v and a secret key s, these keys verify the relation v=s−t (mod n), where n is an integer called modulus and t is a parameter, and a second entity called a “verifier”, which knows the public key v. This process implies exchange of information following a “zero-knowledge protocol” between the verifier and the prover and cryptographic calculations on this information, some calculations being carried out “modulo n”. The process of the invention is characterised by the fact that the modulus n is specific to the prover that communicates this modulus to the verifier.

Abstract: Les informations génétiques, biochimiques, biophysiques et anatomiques sont intégrées au niveau cellulaire et infracellulaire. On utilise au moins une base de données contenant des informations biologiques pour générer une structure de données à laquelle un attribut au moins se trouve associé. Une interface permet, de façon interactive, de visualiser et de relier les attributs d'une pluralité de structures de données, pour créer au moins une description hiérarchique des fonctions cellulaire et infracellulaire. Un moteur informatique permet de générer au moins une structure de données à partir de cette description hiérarchique. On accède ensuite aux informations génétiques, on les met en tableaux et on les combine à des informations fonctionnelles relatives au rôle biochimique et physiologique des produits géniques. Des modèles informatiques des processus génétiques, biochimiques et biophysiques à l'intérieur des cellules sont automatiquement établis, résolus et analysés sur la base de la combinaison des informations génétiques et des informatiques fonctionnelles ajoutées. On obtient ainsi un outil dynamique permettant la réalisation d'objectifs, parmi lesquels une meilleure compréhension des processus biologiques, l'identification de nouvelles cibles médicamenteuses pour l'intervention thérapeutique, et les prédictions quant aux résultats du criblage de médicaments.

A processor element (28) is disposed in the enclosure (100) and is adapted for coupling to a fuel senor (86) disposed in the storage vessel (20). A communication interface (14) is provided for coupling data through the enclosure (100) between the processor (28) and a processor external to the package through a dielectric (90) transmission media passing through the enclosure (100). A power supply (104) for the processor element (28) disposed in the enclosure (100), such power supply (104) being adapted to generate power for the processing element (28) in response to input energy. An energy interface (110) is provided for coupling the input energy from a source external to the enclosure (100) through dielectric (90) transmission media passing through the enclosure (100). With such an arrangement both data to the electro-statically shielded processor (28) and energy to the electro-statically shield power supply (104) are coupled to the electro-statically shielded enclosure (100) though dielectric (90) media.  Therefore, electrical disturbances external to the enclosure (100) will not be carried by conductive wires into the enclosure (100) and then into the fuel tank (20) which might thereby cause a hazardous condition in the fuel in the tank (20).

Abstract: The present application a transporter (100) for transport-ing specimen carriers (8) to a processing station (40), comprising a first vertical input magazine (1) of carriers (8), a second vertical output magazine (6) of carriers, and a singulator (3) located between the first and second magazines (1, 6). The first and second magazines (1, 6) may be located one above the other. Preferably, the first and second magazines (1, 6) and the singulator (3) are vertically aligned so that a carrier (8) follows a straight vertical path. This provides a compact arrangement which takes up the minimum of floor space in the laboratory. The singulator (3) receives carriers (8) one-at-a-time from the input magazine (1) and moves them vertically to a processing position (40). After processing, the singulator (3) then delivers each carrier to an output location where it is transferred to the output magazine (6). The singulator (3) may move a carrier (8) upwards or downwards at the processing position (40) independent of any movement of the carriers (8) in the input and/or output magazines (1, 6). The drives for the input and output magazine (1, 6) are preferably simply gravity drives but the present invention is not limited thereto. The drive (10) for the singulator is preferably a stepping motor or DC servo-motor.

IPC: C12N15/09
Filed: 2002-04-05
Abstract: A system and method for manipulating magnetically responsive particles in a solution to separate nucleic acid molecules from cell components in a cell solution. The system and method employ a device capable of receiving a plurality of tubes, each of which contain respective sample and magnetically responsive particles. The device includes heating and cooling devices to facilitate a lysing step to release the nucleic acid molecules from the cells in the cell solution. The device further includes moveable magnets which can be moved proximate to and away from the tube to hold the magnetically responsive particles to which the nucleic acid molecules become bound, so that the molecule-bound particles can be separated from the remainder of the solution, and washed as appropriate. The system also employs an electromagnet which is capable of demagnetizing the particles to allow the particles to freely mix with solution, such as elution solutions which are used to unbind the molecules from the particles.

Title: Prevention of oil backflow from a screw compressor in a refrigeration chiller
Inventor: BEEKMAN DENNIS M
IPC: F04C29/12
Filed: 2000-08-03
Abstract: A screw compressor (12) in a refrigeration chiller (10) includes one or more baffles (68, 80) disposed in the compressor housing (24) so as to intercept and redirect oil which may flow and/or be blown, under certain operating conditions, in an upstream direction against the stream of suction gas that flows into the compressor (12) from the evaporator (18). The baffles (68, 80) cause oil to be retained in the compressor (12) rather than being blown back to the system evaporator (18) to ensure that sufficient oil is available to the compressor (12) under all operating conditions and eliminates the need for structure/apparatus in the evaporator (18) dedicated to returning such oil to the compressor (12).
