Title: Recovery of metal values from aqueous solutions
Inventor: TURCOTTE GILLES RENE
IPC: C22B26/10
Filed: 1989-10-24
Abstract: There is described the recovery, by extraction, of valuable metals, for example gallium, contained in an aqueous solution, the stages of the extraction comprising the bringing of the aqueous solution into contact with a water-immiscible organic phase containing a water- insoluble substituted 8-hydroxyquinoline, the valuable metals being transferred into the organic phase, separation of the organic phase from the aqueous solution and recovery of the valuable metals from the organic phase. The novelty consists in that the valuable metals are recovered by bringing the organic phase, containing the valuable metals, into contact with a concentrated aqueous solution of a strong base, with the valuable metals passing from the organic phase into the aqueous solution and the aqueous solution, containing the recovered valuable metals, having a total hydroxide concentration of at least 4.6 moles per litre, and in subsequently isolating the valuable metals from the aqueous phase.

IPC: H04W8/18
Filed: 1999-07-13
Abstract: The invention relates to selection of the implementation of a service, and particularly to selection of the implementation of a supplementary service in a mobile communication system, in a situation where a user can use different terminals the properties of which vary. In the solution of the invention, at least two different implementations are defined for a service, the terminal requirements of which differ from each other. The implementation of the service is selected ( 307, 308, 309, 317 , and 318 ) on the basis of the properties of the terminal used. Thus the implementation of the services is made as optimal and flexible as possible by implementing each service function at the most useful location considering the properties of the terminal and network.

Title: Automated method and apparatus for hydrating soft contact lenses
Inventor: KEENE DARREN SCOTT
IPC: B29C39/36
Filed: 1996-04-23
Abstract: An automated means for hydrating a molded hydrophilic contact lens is provided in which a first robotic assembly removes a plurality of contact lens molds from a production line carrier, each of the lens molds having a contact lens adhered therein. The first robotic assembly transports the molds to a first staging area where the lens molds are sandwiched between a lens mold carrier and a top chamber plate to form a first hydration carrier. A first rotary transfer device then hands the first hydration carrier to a second robotic assembly which immerses the first hydration carrier in a hydration bath to hydrate the lens and to release the lens from the lens mold. While the lens is immersed in the hydration bath, each lens is transferred from its respective mold to a lens transfer means found within the top chamber plate. After a predetermined period of time, the second robotic assembly removes the first hydration carrier from the hydration bath and hands the hydration carrier off to a second rotary transfer device which rotates the first hydration carrier and aligns it for transfer to a third robotic assembly. The third robotic assembly then carries the top chamber plate and contact lenses through a series of steps in which the lens mold carrier and lens molds are removed from the top chamber plate. The lenses carried on the lens transfer means are then flushed and transported for assembly with a hydration base member to form a second hydration carrier for processing the lens in subsequent extraction stations. The second hydration carrier is then transported through a plurality of flushing or extraction stations wherein fresh deionized water is introduced into the hydration chambers at each hydration station to flush leachable substances from the hydration chamber. At each flushing station, fresh deionized water is introduced into the hydration chamber to remove previously extracted impurities and the products of hydrolysis. A final robotic dis-assembly device separates the top chamber plate and lens transfer means from the hydration base member, to provide fully hydrated lenses in a concave lens holding means ready for transfer to inspection and packaging stations.

Title: Plasma arc torch and method for improved life of plasma arc torch consumable parts
Inventor: HORNER-RICHARDSON KEVIN D
IPC: H05H1/34
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: A plasma arc torch and method for improving the life of the consumable parts of the plasma are torch, including the electrode, the tip and the shield cap. The method includes turbulating gas as it flows over the exposed surfaces of the electrode, tip and shield cap to increase turbulence in the hydrodynamic boundary layer of the gas flow, thereby enhancing convective heat transfer. The result of enhanced cooling is improved consumable parts life. For example, to increase the turbulence of the gas flow over the outer surface of the electrode, the plasma arc torch electrode has a roughened, or textured outer surface formed with dimples, axially extending grooves or spiraling grooves formed in the outer surface of the electrode. The inner and outer surfaces of the tip and the inner surface of the shield cap are similarly textured.

Title: Forming a communication network
Inventor: KORPELA HARRI
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 2001-04-19
Abstract: This invention concerns the forming of a communication network. The invention offers an arrangement and a method to form a communication network. The inventive arrangement is divided into several modules, such as a logical or physical topology of the network concerning a specific technology, where each one of them represents one layer of the network. Depending on the network that is going to be formed, the necessary modules are used, i.e. the set of modules is chosen to form the network. Certain network parts are formed in a relevant module. Each module uses resources (capacities and routes for connections) from the module below, i.e. a module that represents the layer below, and provides recourses to the module above, i.e. a module that represents the layer above. Hence the resource flow is from a module to an adjacent module only, intermediate modules are not bypassed.
