Title: Valve plate assembly
Inventor: Stig Kildegaard Andersen
IPC: F04B53/10
Filed: 2020-12-14
Abstract: A valve plate assembly 1, of a hydraulic axial piston machine, comprising a wear plate 2 made of a ceramic material surrounded by a compression ring 4; the wear plate is connected to a support plate 3 by means of the compression ring. The valve plate could be part of a rotary axial piston pump (RAPP) where the wear plate is the sliding surface at the opposite end of the cylinder block (10, fig.6) to the swash plate. Benefits include resistance to thermal shock, improved wear resistance of the ceramic relative to PEEK (Poly-Ether Ether Ketone), improved absorption of axial forces, reduction of the material in the replaceable wear plate. The compression ring can have opening for fixing means to secure it to the support plate. A seal (19, fig.5), such as an O-ring, may be used between the wear plate and support plate. The support plate can be biased by a spring section 22 which transfers load symmetrically from the cylinder block, even if the block is misaligned, and distributes it through hinge 25 to the body of the support plate and on to the ceramic wear plate. Thrust pads 8 may abut against the support plate.

Title: Computer-implemented method and system for identifying objects in an environment
Inventor: YESHWANTH PULIJALA
IPC: G06V20/00
Filed: 2021-05-07
Abstract: The method comprises receiving image data from one or more cameras 10, analysing the image data to detect objects 11 and assigning each object a preliminary identification label and confidence factor 12. Environmental data (optionally audio data 13) may be analysed to detect classification indicators for each detected object, for example a user stating that an object is a scalpel. The assigned confidence factor is modified if the indicator correlates with the preliminary identification label. Alternatively, or additionally physical data (optionally weight 14) relating to a set of objects, including the detected objects, at a predefined location within the environment, may be used to adjust the confidence factor associated with each object if the data corresponds to an expected value. After analysis of the image, environmental and/or physical data the preliminary identification is confirmed as final 15 if the confidence factor meets a predefined criterion. Image analysis may comprise a shape-sensing algorithm, which may also indicate whether an object is cracked or broken. The method may be used to create a list of objects prior to a procedure (e.g. tracking surgical tools during an operation), and a second list after the procedure to account for the presence or absence of the items.

Title: Stable cell lines for inducible production of rAAV virions
Inventor: KENNETH PRENTICE
IPC: C12N15/864
Filed: 2021-07-30
Abstract: Production of recombinant adeno-associated virus (AAV) via the expression of a nucleic acid encoding Rep and Cap proteins and a second nucleic acid encoding adenoviral helper proteins, such as E2A and E4. Either nucleic acid is conditionally expressed. Exemplified is recombinant AAV production in HEK 293 cells via an inducible Cre/LoxP system wherein the Rep gene comprises an intron flanked by LoxP sites. Rep is conditionally expressed due to Rep toxicity. A second plasmid comprises E2A and E4 genes and an inducible Cre recombinase. Cre expression is induced via tamoxifen which excises the disruptive intron to induce Rep protein expression. There is also a plasmid comprises a transgene for packaging into the AAV, for example for gene therapy. The Rep intron may comprise a marker, such as GFP. The cells may also express VA genes and auxotrophic selection markers, such as DHFR. The DHFR sequence may be split across two sequences and functional DHFR formed via a leucine zipper for selection.

IPC: G08G5/00
Filed: 2018-12-11
Abstract: A method 150 of adjusting an operator workload during a travel segment including tracking 151 over a time period, using at least one sensor (103, 105, 106, 112, 117 in figure 4) and at least one of the inputs applied by an operator which are indicative of an operator workload. The sensor data may be image sensor data and/or a biometric parameter indicative of an operator stress level during the travel segment.

Patent GB-191214081-A (GB)
IPC: C06F1/20
Abstract: 14,081. Chasseigne, L. r. June 17. Matches, making. A continuous machine is shown in Fig. 5, for making strips of flat matches, folded and enclosed in wrappers, as shown in Fig. 4. The machine is fed at one end with matchboard or equivalent a<3>, paraffined near the edges, and at the other with cardboard T, previously printed, slit, and given a striking- surface, to form the wrappers. The matchboard is first slit at each side into pointed splints, projecting from a band with a central incision, in an apparatus a<1>, through which it is drawn by a reciprocating claw a<4>, operated by two levers and cams. Strips are then cut off by shears a<2> and fall upon a table, along which they are moved intermittently by side-rails h<2> having projections. These rails receive successively a lifting, advancing, lowering, and retracting movement from cams, through levers h', h<7>. The strips of splints are headed on opposite sides by two grooved rollers b<1>, Figs. 5 and 7, each turning in a waterjacketed tank of composition which fills the grooves. These tanks are mounted on slides b<3> reciprocated by a cam b<8>, fixed pawls b<5> turning the rollers on the outward movement. The headed strips of splints are dried on a conveyer, comprising spring clips c' on a steel band driven intermittently by an interrupted worm c<3>. The strips are introduced into and withdrawn from opposite sides of this conveyer by the rails h<2>, which afterwards advance them to the packing-mechanism, to which wrappers are supplied as follows. The cardboard band T is fed by a ratchet-driven pin-wheel d<2> engaging the slits in it, and by a roller, and receives paste near the centre from a narrow wheel e<1>, turning in a tank past a scraper. It is then cut into wrappers by a knife e<4>. Fig. 12 shows the first stage of the packing operation. A strip of matches advanced by the rails h<2>, Fig. 5, is. pushed laterally by a slide e<7> over a slot between two plates e<6>, below which a wrapper is inserted upon a second slot between plates e<14>. A plate e<10>, Figs. 5 and 12, is then lowered, and folds and presses the two together, the wrapper being bent at the pasted part. A reciprocating bar f<1>, having spring clips, feeds forward the wrapper and matches past spring pieces f<5>, Fig. 15, on a laterally-reciprocating slide f<14>. Two other spring pieces f<8> fold the wrapper, rocking spring-fingers f<10> insert the flap into its slit, and a third spring piece creases the fold. A rocking finger presses the completed packet into a curved guideway, opening in front of a piston g<3>, Fig. 5, which at each stroke discharges in a bunch a predetermined number of packets, according to the gear-ratio of the wheels that drive it.
