Patent AU-6368194-A (AU)
Title: Improved absorbent members having improved fluid distribution via low density and basis weight acquisition zones
Inventor: PAYNE MICHAEL
IPC: B01J20/24
Filed: 1994-03-22
Abstract: An absorbent article having a dual-layer absorbent member, wherein the deposition region of its upper acquisition layer comprises a distribution zone and an acquisition zone having a lower average density and a lower average basis weight per unit area than the distribution zone. The acquisition zone is positioned toward the front of either the absorbent member or the absorbent article so that the acquisition zone may most effectively and efficiently rapidly acquire discharged liquids. The lower storage layer comprises a mixture of hydrophilic fibrous material and discrete particles of absorbent gelling material having a particular size distribution so as to enhance the absorbent capacity and acquisition rate of the dual-layer absorbent member. The upper acquisition layer comprises a homogeneous composition of stiffened, twisted, and curled cellulose fibers which provide enhanced wicking action in the densified distribution zone. The upper acquisition layer serves to rapidly and evenly distribute fluids to the lower storage layer for storage, while freeing the acquisition zone for the next discharge of fluid.

Title: An automatically-closing connector for connecting a liquid injection head to an injection outlet
Inventor: HUET JEAN-MAX
IPC: A61M5/168
Filed: 2000-12-14
Abstract: A compression chamber (14) is formed in a housing (2) around a closing piston (5), and defined upstream by the end wall of the housing and downstream by a peripheral sealing gasket (7) carried by the piston. The closing piston has an internal passage (9) which has an inlet (9a) open into the compression chamber, and an outlet (9b) communicating with an injection outlet. The injection outlet of the connector is located downstream from the gasket which is carried by the rigid and non-deformable piston. The housing is defined in a case (1) and accessible through an injection inlet duct (3) open into the housing through the housing end wall. The housing communicates with the injection outlet. The inlet duct is designed to enable the injection head to be inserted with lateral sealing into the duct towards the housing. The piston can move in the housing and inlet duct between upstream position and downstream position. A spring (12) urges the piston towards the upstream position. The compression chamber is accessible to the liquid injected by the injection head, and communicates with the outlet of the connector. The volume of the compression chamber varies with the displacement of the closing piston so that the withdrawing of the injection head causes the volume of the compression chamber to reduce and excess liquid in the chamber is expelled towards the injection outlet.

Title: A method for making multispecific antibodies having heteromultimeric and common components
Inventor: ARATHOON ROBERT
IPC: C07K16/00
Filed: 1998-04-30
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of preparing heteromultimeric polypeptides such as bispecific antibodies, bispecific immunoadhesins and antibody-immunoadhesin chimeras. The invention also relates to the heteromultimers prepared using the method. Generally, the method provides a multispecific antibody having a common light chain associated with each heteromeric polypeptide having an antibody binding domain. Additionally the method further involves introducing into the multispecific antibody a specific and complementary interaction at the interface of a first polypeptide and the interface of a second polypeptide, so as to promote heteromultimer formation and hinder homomultimer formation; and/or a free thiol-containing residue at the interface of a first polypeptide and a corresponding free thiol-containing residue in the interface of a second polypeptide, such that a non-naturally occurring disulfide bond is formed between the first and second polypeptide. The method allows for the enhanced formation of the desired heteromultimer relative to undesired heteromultimers and homomultimers.
Patent AU-7275696-A (AU)
Title: Process and device for cooling a space
Inventor: SOKOLEAN HELMUT
IPC: F24F5/00
Filed: 1996-11-01
Abstract: In order to cool a room, a cooling element fitted in the ceiling region is cooled to below the freezing point, preferably to about -40 DEG  C., during the cooling phases so that condensate forming thereon freezes immediately. During regeneration phases when the room is not in use, the cooling element is defrosted and the melted condensate is caught in a condensate tray beneath the cooling element and drained via a discharge. The great temperature difference between the room to be cooled and the cooling element also makes it possible to obtain a strong cooling effect with a small cooling element, especially by indirect radiation exchange between the room and the cooling element via an intermediate ceiling. In addition, the air in the room is dehumidified since water vapour is deposited on and bonded to the cooling element in the form of ice. Moreover, the cooling element itself is supported by a tray and a stand upon a floor, and detachable from the floor so that the cooling element is capable of being relocated to different locations.

Title: Method for manufacture of printed circuit boards
Inventor: KUKANSKIS PETER E
IPC: C23C28/00
Filed: 1987-06-25
Abstract: Printed circuit boards containing thru-holes requiring metallization are manufactured by first applying to the board material an alkaline strippable resist in a predetermined desired pattern, thereafter applying material catalytic to subsequent metallization, thereafter treating the board with an aqueous alkaline solution to remove catalytic material from resist surfaces without adversely affecting the catalyst at non-resist areas, and then metallizing the non-resist areas. The ability to preliminarily apply the resist pattern before catalyst application, metallization, etc., yet prevent metallization of the resist, enables the manufacturing process to proceed straight through the activation, metallization, etc. steps without need for interruption for resist application.

Title: Method of controlling press power in a limbing knife assembly in a single-grip harvester head
Inventor: JOHANSSON ANDERS
IPC: A01G23/083
Filed: 2001-09-13
Abstract: In a method, when using a single-grip harvester head for felling and processing trees, of controlling the press power which, by means of a limbing knife assembly (6), is exerted on a stem (3) which is horizontally fed through th head with its butt end first, the diameter of the stem is measured and the press power is reduced in accordance with a control diagram as the diameter decreases during the feeding. The measured diameter values are registered, and each measured diameter value is compared with a predetermined diameter value which is selected from the diameter values of the stem (3) which are previously registered during the feeding of the stem. If a measured diameter value is found to equal or be greater than this predetermined diameter value, the press power is increased to a corrective power value, which is maintained until a later measured diameter value falls below a reference value.
