Patent AU-633474-B2 (AU)
Title: Homogeneous protection assay
IPC: C12Q1/6886
Filed: 1988-09-21
Granted: 1993-02-04
Abstract: Improved homogenous diagnostic assay methods and labels for detecting an analyte in a medium when the analyte is a member of a specific binding pair. The methods and labels provide procedures for reducing background and increasing sensitivity. The binding partner of the analyte is labeled with a substance, the stability of which detectably changes whenever said analyte is bound as a member of the specific binding pair. In a closely related system, the analyte is labeled with a substance susceptible to differential degradation depending on whether or not the analyte is bound as a member of its specific binding pair. After incubation and selective degradation or chemical or biochemical alteration, the amount of analyte bound is detected by measuring either the stability change or the extent of degradation of the label. In a particular system, chemiluminescent acridinium ester labeled probes are used in a homogenous hybridization assay format for sensitively detecting the presence of complement any target polynucleotide sequences.

IPC: F23G5/00
Filed: 1999-03-30
Granted: 2001-05-17
Abstract: Non-hazardous organic waste material is introduced into a slagging combustor where it is burned. The burning produces exhaust gases and a slag of molten, inorganic ash which is removed from the combustor. The exhaust gases are treated to cool and dry the gases and to remove a major portion of particulate matter contained therein. A portion of the treated exhaust gases is mixed with a source of concentrated oxygen in a proportion that results in mixed gases having an oxygen concentration of at least 30% by volume. The mixed gases are introduced into the combustor to support the burning of the waste material. Another portion of the treated exhaust gases is further treated to recover the carbon dioxide therefrom.

Title: Apparatus for rolling up a printed product and winding a wrapping around the roll
Inventor: STAUB SAMUEL
IPC: B65B25/14
Filed: 1993-05-03
Granted: 1995-07-06
Abstract: The winding mandrel (12) of the rolling-up device (10) is preceded by a band-conveyor arrangement (16) which determines the conveying path (18) for the printed products (20) to be rolled up. Into the conveying path (18) opens from below a delivery device (30) which delivers an enveloping element (28), to be wound up together with a respective printed product (20), in the conveying path (18). The enveloping element (28) projects with a respective edge portion beyond the roller (114) and is held by means of the blowing-nozzle arrangement (130) so as to cross the conveying path (18). This edge portion is laid around the leading end region of the printed product (20) supplied and is introduced, together with this, into the mandrel gap (14). After the printed product (20) and the enveloping element (28) have been rolled up, the winding mandrel (12) is moved out in the axial direction and the small pressure bands (26) are stopped, so that the enveloped roll (26), by rolling on the small pressure bands (96) and on the small driven bands (58') of the delivery band (58), moves away from the rolling-up device (10). <IMAGE>

Title: Method for heating glass sheets to be tempered or heat- strengthened
Inventor: VITKALA JORMA
IPC: C03B27/044
Filed: 1995-12-19
Granted: 1999-01-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for heating glass sheets to be tempered or heat-strengthened, in which method glass sheets are heated in a preheating furnace (1) by applying a hot-air blast and convection heating produced thereby to the opposite sides of a glass sheet and the preheated glass sheet is transferred from the preheating furnace (1) into a radiation heating furnace (2) for heating the glass sheet to a tempering temperature. During the convection heating of a glass sheet, the rotating speed of a hot-air fan (5) is increased while adjusting the heating effect of heating resistances (6) so as to maintain the temperature of blasted air substantially constant. Thus, the diminishing temperature difference between glass and air is compensated for by controlling the coefficient of heat transfer. <IMAGE>

Title: Method and apparatus for detecting impending overflow and/or underrun of elasticity buffer
Inventor: IANNARONE JOHN R
IPC: G06F5/10
Filed: 1989-04-26
Granted: 1991-05-02
Abstract: A parallel asynchronous elasticity buffer. Selection of the address of a storage element for writing or reading of data is provided by asynchronous input and output pointers implemented using circular gray code counters. The buffer is initialized once during transmission of each frame of data so that the pointers do not select the same storage element for writing and reading at the same time. Write overflow or read underrun of a storage element is detected before any data corruption can occur by comparing the input and output pointers. An error condition is detected if the input and output pointers overlap for a threshold period, which can be shorter than the period required for writing or reading of a multibit data unit to or from the buffer. The overlap time period is determined by comparing the pointers at one or more sampling times corresponding to selected phases of a clock signal.
Patent AU-763121-B2 (AU)
Title: Lockable pill container
Inventor: NOBLE TERRANCE O
IPC: A61J7/04
Filed: 1999-06-21
Granted: 2003-07-10
Abstract: A lockable pill container is disclosed including a main body with a plurality of individual compartments for receiving pills. Each compartment has a lid member connected to the main body by a hinge permitting it to be moved between open and closed positions. Each lid member has a downwardly projecting hook member that projects through an opening in the main body when the lid is closed. An elongated locking member is laterally inserted into the main body and transversely moveable relative to the hook members between first and second positions. In the first position, the elongated locking member engages the hook members of those lid members that are closed to lock them in the closed position. In the second position, the elongated locking member does not engage the hook members which may be opened and closed without the locking function. The elongated locking member is normally biased into the locking position by a transverse member that includes a downwardly projecting, externally accessible transverse member. The transverse member is formed from resilient material, which normally biases the elongated locking member to its first or locking position. The user may press the transverse member and thus move the elongated locking member against the bias to the second or nonlocking position. The elongated locking member may be selectively removed from the pill container to render the locking feature inoperative if the pill container is used in an environment where locking is not necessary.

Title: Extraction zone for solid fuel burner
Inventor: WILLIAMS PAUL DOUGLAS
IPC: F23L9/00
Filed: 1985-11-14
Granted: 1988-10-20
Abstract: @ A solid fuel burner 1 has a first chamber 2 for receiving a combustible fuel to be gasified and a substantially conical upwardly directed extraction zone connecting a bottom portion of the primary chamber 2 with a secondary chamber 8 through the apex region 42. The combustible fuel presents a relatively large surface area G into the extraction zone F and relatively low velocity gases can leave the primary combustion chamber 2 to maximise the extraction of gaseous fuel from the fuel while leaving fuel and other particulate material behind. The substantially conical shape of the extraction zone F which provides a convergent gas flow path does however enable a sufficiently high velocity or the hot gas entering into the secondary chamber 8.A transverse entry of cold air H by means of a tuyere assembly 46 is provided at the apex region 42. The high density of the cold air and its transverse flow ensures a good mixing of the cold air with the hot gas before its entry into the secondary chamber 8. The hot gas in the chamber 8 has a circular motion creating a vortex in the centre of the chamber 8. Hot gas leaves the chamber 8 from one side at outlet 9 while cold air flows into the chamber 8 from an opposite side.
