Title: Ladder, in particular ladder head, and running gear for simple ladders
Inventor: BUSENHART EDWIN
IPC: E06C7/48
Filed: 1996-06-11
Abstract: A running gear with running wheels is disclosed for the top end of both uprights of a simple ladder that form forward-facing bearing points on wall surfaces. Compared with the prior art, the running wheels (5, 5') have additional, diametrically opposed bearing points (9, 9') for corners that when used for outer corners (20) face inwards and when used for inner corners face outwards. The running wheels (5, 5') are preferably designed as elastic bodies. The new ladder above all allows telescopic ladders to be drawn out and set against a straight wall or edges and offers a safety that was hitherto impossible to achieve, in particular when the ladder was set against wall corners. Also disclosed is a ladder head to be mounted on a ladder and selectively provided with immovable bearing surfaces or running wheels. Both solutions have forward-facing bearing points for flat wall surfaces and diametrically opposed bearing points for outer and inner corners. The user may choose between both setting up modes according to his requirements.

Patent AU-6031899-A (AU)
Title: Leptin induced genes
Inventor: WHITE DAVID
IPC: A61K48/00
Filed: 1999-09-10
Abstract: Six genes whose expression is induced by leptin are disclosed (LIG46; LIG56; Tgtp, encoding a T cell-specific GTP-binding protein; LRG-47, encoding an interferon (IFN) inducible protein; RC10-II, encoding a subunit of a 20S brain proteasome; and Stra13, encoding a retinoic acid inducible protein). These six leptin-inducible genes and the proteins they encode represent targets for the development of therapeutic agents for use in modulating body weight. For example, agents that alter the expression or activity of one or more of the leptin-induced proteins can be used to modulate body weight. Such agents can be identified using cellular, in vitro, or in vivo assays which monitor the expression or activity of one or more of the six leptin-induced proteins. Potentially useful therapeutic agents can also be identified through the use of assays designed to identify agents that bind to one of the leptin-induced proteins. The leptin-induced genes of the invention and the proteins they encode may themselves be useful therapeutically and diagnostically.
Patent AU-6044099-A (AU)
Title: Adaptive channel characterization using decoded symbols
Inventor: KHAYRALLAH ALI S
IPC: H04B3/06
Filed: 1999-09-14
Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for channel tracking utilizing multi-pass demodulation in which, during the second pass, decoded symbols are treated as known symbols which are used to calculate the error term used in updating the propagation characterization during the second pass. This allows a higher bandwidth to be used for updating the propagation characterization while known symbols are being processed. In particular, the propagation characterization may be provided by a channel tracker or a multi-antenna receiver, such as an interference rejection/combining (IRC) system, with an impairment correlation matrix estimator or a combination of both. Accordingly, the spatial diversity characteristics of the received signal (from IRC) and the temporal (or timing) characteristics (from the channel tracker) may both be tracked at different bandwidths for decoded and undecoded symbols to allow improved performance under fast changing channel conditions while maintaining desired performance characteristics while processing undecoded symbols.

Title: Furnace valve
Inventor: KING PATRICK DANA
IPC: B22D41/08
Filed: 1987-06-29
Abstract: A sliding gate valve assembly employed on the side of a furnace as a furnace valve is so structured that the shut off of metal flow from the furnace occurs by directing the slide gate (21) to the up position rather than the down position. In addition, to facilitate a reduction in space at the slide gate, the slide gate is desirably configured to be asymmetrical, with the short end extending upwardly from the pour opening (29) in the nozzle. A refractory lined heat shield (26) protects the sliding gate carrier (22) and also serves to mount a collector extension (30) when used. The slide gate (21) is provided with a metallic frame (60) which retains a monolithic refractory (80) into which erosion resistant refractory inserts or performed members (29,70) are cast. Means are desirably provided to remove the spent refractory for remanufacture thereby reclaiming the casting. Similarly in the stationary plate (20), means are provided for remanufacture and for facilitating proper orientation of erosion-resistant refractory inserts in the manufacture of the stationary plate. The stationary plate is symmetrical to provide full travel pressure face relationship with the sliding gate (21). Both the stationary plate (20) and slide gate (21) casting have spring pad back up reinforcements. The statutory plate desirably has means for securing a well nozzle (19) to it.

Title: Racket-stringing tester
IPC: A63B51/005
Filed: 1987-08-27
Abstract: A device for testing the stringing tension of a racket is made up of two components. The first component has a racket support surface with a recess therein. The second component is a cylinder containing a spring in compression with a slot in the cylinder indicating the compression load on the spring. The components are connected together with a connecting bolt passing through the racket. A spindle mounted on the connecting bolt and the first component applies pressure between the two components, acts on the strings of the racket and indicates racket tension by the amount of compression applied to the spring of the second component. The connecting bolt can also be threaded and the second component cylinder can be threaded thereon to apply pressure between the components. Distance sensing electrical contacts in the recess of the first component indicate when the reading is to be made.
