Title: Hollow wall structure
Inventor: JOHNSTON CURTIS F
IPC: B29C48/30
Filed: 2009-04-15
Abstract: A flexible extruded plastic wall structure with a hollow core is presented along with a method of making the same. The wall structure has an overall flat back wall, an overall front wall and at least one support wall extending between and confined to the interior surfaces of the overall back wall and the overall front wall; the overall back wall, the overall front wall and the at least one support wall having a generally uniform thickness and defining at least two defined spaces. The wall structure includes sections, where the rear wall of each section is flat from the bottom of the wall structure to the top of the wall structure. The hollow wall structure has a front wall having vertically disposed sections with different contours. The method includes using extrusion die for heating and extruding plastics using a multi-functional insert within the die and air pressure to create a hollow core in the wall structure, The hollow core allows less material to flow though the die so that the die stays hotter and the flow of the extruded plastic is not impeded. The resulting extruded plastic wall structure is comprised of a generally thick portion, a generally thin portion and a profile on the face or front of the wall structure.

Patent CA-2677998-A1 (CA)
Inventor: FEINBERG BRUCE G
IPC: A23L5/10
Filed: 2007-11-27
Abstract: A commercial device and method for cooking food product in cooking oil includes a fry vat containing an amount of cooking oil used to cook discrete batches of uncooked food in discrete batches of a weight relative to the amount of cooking oil in the range of from about 0.0375 to about 0.1, with the total amount of food being cooked at any one time relative to the amount of oil in the fry vat being about 0.1 or less. Cooking the food results in an uptake of oil by the food in an amount of from about 5.5% to about 13% by weight of the uncooked food, and an oil turnover ratio of from about 0.0026 to about 0.007 per discrete batch. Replacement oil is periodically added, and a sufficient number of batches are cooked over 60 hours of operation to achieve at least one vat oil turnover. Automated intermittent filtration is employed in the device and method that can include monitoring the elapsed time since the last filtration of the cooking oil, monitoring the amount of food by number of batches or by weight of food product cooked in the oil since the last filtration, and filtering the oil when a predetermined threshold value is reached based on the elapsed time since the last filtration and the amount of food cooked. An automated device and method for maintaining a level of oil in a fry vat having a volume includes sensing the level of oil in the vat. When the sensed level of oil in the vat is less than or equal to a first predetermined level, replacement oil is automatically added to the fry vat, typically when at ambient temperature at a low average flow rate in the range of about 0.008 to about 0.08 gallons per minute per gallon of the oil present in the vat at the first predetermined level. The low average flow rate of added oil avoids a temperature drop of more than 15°F, 100F or 5°F in the bulk oil present in the fry vat as result of adding the oil as desired.

Title: Glycosidase inhibitors and methods of synthesizing same
Inventor: PINTO BRIAN MARIO
IPC: A61K31/095
Filed: 2007-03-02
Abstract: Methods for synthesizing Salacinol, its stereoisomers, and analogues, homologues and other derivatives thereof potentially useful as glycosidase inhibitors are described. In some embodiments the compounds of the invention may have the general formula (I) or (II). The synthetic schemes may comprise reacting a cyclic sulfate with a 5-membered ring sugar containing a heteroatom (X). The heteroatom preferably comprises sulfur, selenium, or nitrogen. The cyclic sulfate and ring sugar reagents may be readily prepared from carbohydrate precursors, such as D-glucose, L-glucose, D-xylose and L-xylose. The target compounds are prepared by opening of the cyclic sulfates by nucleophilic attack of the heteroatoms on the 5-membered ring sugars. The resulting heterocyclic compounds have a stable, inner salt structure comprising a heteroatom cation and a sulfate anion. The synthetic schemes yield various stereoisomers of the target compounds in moderate to good yields with limited side-reactions. Chain-extended analogues of Salacinol are also described.

Abstract: There is described a method of laying pipe (20) through a fill (12) of loosely packed materials, where the pipe is installed between a pointed front section (36) and a rear section (50) of a tool, and the rear section is subjected to a drive force in the longitudinal direction, so that the pointed section and the pipe is pushed into the loosely packed materials. The method is characterized by that in the event that the progress is halted due to an inadvertent hindrance in the loosely packed materials, the tool and the pipe connected thereto is pulled back by exerting a tractive force on a tractive means (80) connected to the pointed front section. Preferably the tractive means is a line (80) in the shape of a wire and/or a chain, fixed to the front section (32), where the line runs within the pipe connected to the rear section (50), and the tractive force is controlled by the tool operator.
