Title: Method and apparatus for cleaning reusable containers
Inventor: COOMBS JOHN ANTHONY
IPC: B08B3/14
Filed: 1984-04-18
Abstract: An apparatus for cleansing objects by passage through a tank containing a detergent liquor, which is subjected to ultrasonic vibration is provided with sprayers for rinsing the articles emerging from the detergent liquor by liquid drawn from the detergent bath. In order to control the build up of solids in the detergent bath, the liquor supplied to the sprayers is filtered through a moving filter band, from which the accumulated solids are removed by spraying wash liquor onto the reverse surface of the filter band. The filter band is mounted on a frame, which is supported by a pivot at one end and incorporates a suction box into which filtered liquid is drawn through the filter band. The filter band rests upon a support roller or the like. The weight of the frame tensions the belt. When the frmae and band are lifted out, the band is loose on the frame and may be replace very simply. The band may be driven by the external support roller or through a drive roller in contact with the reverse face of the band.

Title: Muffle furnace for continuous heat treatments during passage of the material
Inventor: LOGUE MICHEL
IPC: F27B9/10
Filed: 1985-03-13
Abstract: This invention relates to a muffle furnace, for continuous heat treatment during passage of material therethrough, of products, the production cycle of which includes a treatment of predetermined duration at a temperature which may be about 1100 DEG  to about 1150 DEG  C., which furnace is heated by a flame producing burner without the combustion gases directly contacting the products to be treated. This furnace comprises: an inlet zone provided with a means for preheating, by circulating recycled combustion gases in a double casing provided around the muffle; a heating zone, provided inside a heat-insulated chamber provided with at least one means for circulating combustion gases around the heating zone of the muffle; and an outlet zone provided with at least one means for controlling the cooling rate of the treated product. For the heat treatment of refractory or carbon-containing products, impregnated with a carbon-containing material such as pitch, the pyrolysis of which produces combustible vapors, the heating zone is divided into three sections by means of an additional partition: a zone for exuding and removing volatile materials from the pitch; a zone for pyrolyzing and carbonizing the pitch; and a final firing zone.

Abstract: The invention relates to a flat pack or housing for a radio apparatus having a rectangular cross-section comprising an opening at the front side and an opening at the back side which are respectively closable with a cover and also relates to a support mount for the radio apparatus. Such a radio apparatus provides the user with the possibility of versatile use at various use locations and is securable in a receptacle. To this end, the housing is divided into two tub-shaped main chambers by a bottom plate oriented parallel to the plane of the openings. The individual assemblies of the radio apparatus are disposed RF-shielded in the main chambers and the main chambers being closed by the covers by means of a central screw. Outside guide rails for acceptance into the support mount are disposed at opposite lateral faces of the housing. The support mount is composed of a sheet metal panel bent at three sides. The lower, bent part of the panel forms a chamber with a further bent sheet metal part which carries contacting elements and further assemblies for additional functions of the radio apparatus are accommodated in said latter chamber. A carrying shackle pivotable by 90 DEG  is attached at the upper side of the radio apparatus. This carrying shackle provides a latching function when the radio apparatus is inserted in the support mount.

Title: Record carrier and device for reading such a record carrier
Inventor: MONS JOHANNES JAN
IPC: G11B20/18
Filed: 1995-02-14
Abstract: A record carrier (36) has a data signal recorded on it which represents data words, added codewords of a first type and added codewords of a second type. The added codewords of the first type have a predefined first relation to the data words. The added codewords of the second type have a second predefined relation to data words and added codewords of the first type. The added codewords of the first and the second type make an error correction possible according to a given algorithm. The data signal is divided into blocks (1) which contain each a control portion (20) with control data and a data portion (21) with user-supplied data. The data words and added first and second codewords are ordered and interrelated in a manner in which the order of the data words, once the error correction has been effected according to the given criterion, is not affected. Furthermore, the application proposes a device for reading a data signal recorded on the record carrier (36). The device comprises first and second error correcting means (45, 47) for correcting errors in the data words in response to the added codewords of the second type and first type. The device further comprises decoding means (50) for separating the control portions (20) of the blocks (1) in response to the data words produced by the first correcting means (45), whilst the results generated by the second correcting means (46) are discarded.

Abstract: A system is disclosed for generating a page for display for example on a WAP-enabled device (10) or a web browser. The system comprises a database 38 a selection stage 34 for receiving a user request and selecting references from the database, a ranking stage 40 for ordering the references selected from the database, and a page generation stage 42 for generating data to define a page. The page is generated based upon the references ordered by the ranking stage 40. The ranking stage 40 orders the data in a non-constant manner in accordance with predetermined rules. For example, the data may be ordered randomly, pseudo-randomly, weighted randomly, in rotation, or in accordance with a prioritisation set on a commercial basis. An aim of the system is to reduce the effect of the limited capacity for display of data that is inherent in display devices such as WAP-enabled mobile telephones.

Title: Electric traction current-collector
Inventor: FERGUSON IAN CAMPBELL
IPC: B60L5/20
Filed: 1981-10-22
Granted: 1985-04-24
Abstract: An electric traction current-collector, such as is described in United Kingdom Patent Specification No. 1 374 972, has a carbon current-collector block (1) housing a rupturable tubular container (7) for air under pressure applied through a pneumatic control system for a pantograph or other carrier so that loss of air pressure due to rupture of the container causes the current-collector block to be retracted. The container (7) is so thin that, if it is not completely housed and supported, it bursts under the applied air pressure and consequently any defect in the carbon block which spoils complete support of the container causes retraction of the current-collector.

Title: A gene coding for glucuronide permease
Inventor: JEFFERSON RICHARD ANTHONY
IPC: C12N1/21
Filed: 1990-04-26
Granted: 1992-01-22
Abstract: The present invention relates to the gene encoding the transport protein, glucuronide permease. Recombinant vectors encoding glucuronide permease can be used to transfect host cells. Expression of glucuronide permease by the transformants allow cellular uptake of beta -glucuronides. This system permits the detection of  beta -glucuronidase activity in vivo, and can conveniently be used together with GUS gene fusions. In addition to providing an important complement to the GUS system, glucuronide permease also can be used in a method to selectively alter the permeability of cells. Because of the variety of substances which can be conjugated to  beta -glucuronides, glucuronide permease provides a cellular entrance for a multitude of compounds.
