Title: Structural members and structures
Inventor: JOHN DAVID NICHOLAS
IPC: E04B2/76
Filed: 2007-04-19
Abstract: A panel support post <B>60</B> comprises a structural member having a first elongate channel <B>62</B> for receiving the edge of a panel or board <B>66</B> and a second channel extending parallel to and in communication with the first channel <B>62</B>. An elongate gripping member <B>64</B> is disposed in the second channel and protrudes into the first channel to grip the edge of a panel or board inserted in the first channel. The gripping member <B>64</B> may be in the form of a barb so that it is easier to insert the panel than it is to remove it. The second channel may be positioned at one side of the first channel <B>62</B> opposite to a scalloped side of the first channel. Alternatively two second channels may be provided opposing each other. The structural member may have two or four first channels, each with associated second channels. The first channels may be arranged to be collinear in cross section, at right angles to each other or at a user-adjustable angle to each other. The structural member <B>60</B> may be used as a post to support signs or advertising boards or to support partitions.

Title: Bar clamp with lever that is not straight
Inventor: ALEXANDER JOHN
IPC: B25B5/06
Filed: 2008-04-03
Abstract: A clamp (10, fig 1) includes a bar 120 and a jaw assembly (14, 16, fig 1). The jaw assembly receives the bar so that it is slidably positionable along the bar. The jaw assembly comprises a lever 114 that forms an aperture 118 through which the bar passes, the lever being movable between an engaged position (fig 3C) and a disengaged position within the jaw assembly (fig 3A). If the lever is in the disengaged position within the jaw assembly, the lever is slidable along the bar; and if the lever is in the engaged position within the jaw assembly, the lever engages the bar to hold the lever at a fixed position along the bar. The lever has a shape that is not substantially straight and reduces the positional difference between the engaged and disengaged positions. The lever may have an arcuate, hook shape. Alternatively, the lever may have first and second parallel tabs (140, 142, fig 4A), which are offset from one another.

Title: Acid mediated deacylation of 6-0-trichlorogalactosucrose to trichlorogalactosucrose
Inventor: RATNAM RAKESH
IPC: C07H1/00
Filed: 2008-04-21
Abstract: A process is described for acid mediated deacylation of acyl derivatives of chlorinated sucrose compounds comprising generating a predominantly organic phase condition in a process stream requiring deacylation treatment but allowing an optimum quantity of water content which is capable of participating in a hydrolysis reaction; this objective being achieved for the said process stream by following steps of (a) adding to it alcoholic solvent in an amount such that water content of final reaction mixture is between about 5% to 0.5%, (b) adding acid chloride to the same (c) adjusting the pH to 4 by adding acetate buffer in a methanolic solution and, (d) stirring the reaction until deacylation is complete. This process can be integrated in a process for production of a chlorinated compound, involving use of dimethylformamide during the process, to achieve deacylation without decomposition of dimethylformamide as well as the chlorinated sucrose product.
