Abstract: Fine slits are formed in the metal sheet B at the slit forming section 11 by plate cutters 15, excluding portions in the center and on both sides in a widthwise direction of the metal sheet B, after which the areas where the slits have been formed are drawn out at the expanding section 12 thereby opening the slits and obtaining a mesn sheet C which has solid portions in the central portion and on both sides. This mesh sheet C is flattened at the rolling section 14 to obtain an expanded mesh sheet D. An electrode sheet is prepared by applying an active material onto the portions of the expanded mesh sheet D where the mesh has been formed, and collectors for a battery are cut out from this electrode sheet such that lead connecting portions thereof are located at the solid portion of the mesh sheet where there is no openings, with which a positive and negative electrode plates for the battery are manufactured.

Filed: 1999-09-28
Granted: 2004-11-23
Abstract: A straw chopper with a housing that is provided with a chopping region and a discharge region, a chopping and conveying element and a distributor having several guide vanes for the transverse dispersal of the chopped straw, wherein the discharge region of the housing can be pivoted about a first axis relative to the chopping region of the housing and chopped straw is conducted by the conveying element past the chopping and the discharge regions in the direction toward the guide vanes. Choppers such as this are applied to harvesting machines such as combines, in order to distribute chopped straw on a field. In order to attain an optimum transverse distribution of the straw and to be able to bring the distributor into a favorable position for transport on the road, it is proposed that the distributor be arranged so as to be able to pivot relative to the chopping region of the housing, separately from the discharge region of the housing.

Title: Gastric-retentive oral drug dosage forms for controlled release of highly soluble drugs
Inventor: LOUIE-HELM JENNY
IPC: A61K31/70
Filed: 1998-06-05
Granted: 2006-12-05
Abstract: Drugs that are freely or highly soluble in water are formulated as unit dosage forms by incorporating them into polymeric matrices comprised of high molecular weight hydrophilic polymers that swell upon imbibition of water. The dosage form can be a single compressed tablets, or two or three compressed tablets retained in a single gelatin capsule. The oral formulation is designed for gastric retention and controlled delivery of an incorporated drug into the gastric cavity, and thus administered, the drug is released from the matrix into the gastric fluid by solution diffusion. The swollen polymeric matrix, having achieved sufficient size, remains in the gastric cavity for several hours if administered while the patient is in the fed mode, and remains intact long enough for substantially all of the drug to be released before substantial erosion of the matrix occurs. The swelling matrix lowers the accessibility of the gastric fluid to the drug and thereby limits the drug release rate. This process, together with diffusion retardation by selection of specific polymers, polymer molecular weights, and other variables, results in a sustained and controlled delivery rate of the drug to the gastric environment.

IPC: G10L19/02
Filed: 1998-07-07
Granted: 2004-06-15
Abstract: The present invention permits a combination of a scalable audio coder with the TNS technique. In a method for coding time signals sampled in a first sampling rate, second time signals are first generated whose sampling rate is smaller than the first sampling rate. The second time signals are then coded according to a first coding algorithm and written into a bit stream. The coded second time signals are, however, decoded again, and, like the first time signals, transformed into the frequency domain. From a spectral representation of the first time signals, TNS prediction coefficients are calculated. The transformed output signal of the coder/decoder with the first coding algorithm, like the spectral representation of the first time signal, undergoes a prediction over the frequency to obtain residual spectral values for both signals, though only the prediction coefficients calculated on the basis of the first time signals are used. These two signals are evaluated against each other. The evaluated residual spectral values are then coded by means of a second coding algorithm to obtain coded evaluated residual spectral values, which, together with the side information containing the calculated prediction coefficients, are written into the bit stream.

Title: Integration of solvent deasphalting, gasification, and hydrotreating
Inventor: WALLACE PAUL S
IPC: C10G67/04
Filed: 2000-01-11
Granted: 2010-07-20
Abstract: During the hydrotreating process, hydrogen sulfide and short chain hydrocarbons such as methane, ethane, propane, butane and pentane are formed. The separation of gas from hydrotreated liquid hydrocarbons is achieved using a stripper and a flash drum. High pressure steam or nitrogen is contacted with the hydrotreated liquid hydrocarbon material. This high pressure steam strips the volatiles, i.e., hydrogen, the volatile hydrocarbons, hydrogen sulfide, and the like, from the oil. The gaseous streams is then separated and cooled to remove condensables, including primarily water, short chain hydrocarbons, and hydrogen sulfide in the water. The condensables are advantageously sent to the gasifier, where the hydrocarbons are gasified, the water moderates the gasifier temperature and increases the yield of hydrogen, and where hydrogen sulfide is routed with the produced synthesis gas to the acid gas removal process.
