Title: Dry compositions for preparing submicron emulsions
Inventor: FRIEDMAN DORON
IPC: A61K47/18
Filed: 1993-02-17
Granted: 1997-02-27
Abstract: The present invention relates to dry, stable compositions which can be reconstituted to form pharmaceutical or cosmetic emulsions, and to methods for making such compositions. An emulsion is formed from about 0.2 to 25 weight percent of a first component of an oil, about 0.1 to 5 weight percent of a second component of an emulsifier, about 0.25 to 25 weight percent of a cryoprotectant of an amino compound, such as one or more amino acids, peptides or protein hydrolysates, and an aqueous component, wherein the amino compound is present in an amount that is equal to or greater than that of the first component. Optionally, a co-emulsifier, a suspension agent, a preservative, an antioxidant and a drug can be added to these emulsions. Thereafter, the emulsion is lyophilized to form dry compositions that have from about 40 to about 90 weight percent of the amino compound; from about 0.1 to about 20 weight percent of the emulsifier; and from about 0.2 to about 40 weight percent of the oily component. By combining the dry composition with an appropriate quantity of an aqueous liquid, the composition is reformed as an oil-in-water emulsion.

Title: Suspension ladder
Inventor: WATLING NIGEL CLIVE
IPC: B63B27/14
Filed: 1985-09-09
Granted: 1988-06-30
Abstract: A suspension ladder comprises a string of identical rigid rectangular sections (1) which are hinged together about a series of parallel axes adjacent their longer rear edges (2), and each of which has one or more apertures (11) forming a rung of the ladder. Each section (1) has a trapezoidal cross sectional profile providing the section with sloping top and bottom edge faces (4) and (5) which converge towards the front face (6) from the longitudinal rear edges (2) and form stops which limit the extent to which adjoining sections can pivot towards each other in a forward direction. The ladder therefore cannot be flexed in this direction beyond a predetermined minimum radius of curvature and will therefore form a substantially rigid cradle (21) when its lower end is lifted while its upper end is suspended. In contrast adjacent sections can pivot flat against each other in the rearward direction so that the ladder can be rolled up tightly for easy storage.

Date Mar. 27, 1986.Method for producing castings from cast-iron containing structure-modifying additives. A sample from a bath of molten iron is permitted to solidify during 0.5 to 10 minutes. The temperature is recorded simultaneously by two temperature responsive means, one of which is placed in the center of the sample and the other in the immediate vicinity of the vessel wall. The dispersion degree of the graphite phase is assessed in relation to known reference values by aid of recorded values of supercooling at the vessel wall, the recalescence at the vessel wall, the difference between the temperature at the vessel wall and at the centrum of the vessel and the derivative of the temperature decrease at the vessel wall during the time of constant eutectic growth temperature at the center. When necessary a graphite nucleating agent is added to the molten bath or the dispersion is lowered by implementing a holding time prior to casting. The morphology of the graphite precipitation is also determined by aid of recorded values and possibly corrected by changing the amount of structure-modifying agents present.

Title: Tools for disassembling universal joints
Inventor: LOSTRA JOHN M
IPC: B23P19/02
Filed: 1986-02-18
Granted: 1988-09-15
Abstract: Tools for the disassembly of a universal joint comprise two embodiments, a push-type tool and a pull-type tool. With respect to the push-type tool (Fig. 6), a cylinder/piston combination (18, 20) is mounted on a pushing or support assembly (80), and the cylinder/piston combination (18, 20) is operated to force the piston (20) against the support assembly (80), which in turn exerts a pushing force on the cross (intersection point of the yoke members) of the universal joint. At the same time, the cylinder (18), which is connected to the near end of a yoke member of the universal joint, exerts a pulling force on the universal joint, thereby forcing a journal bearing out of the yoke member. In the pull-type tool (Fig. 3), a cylinder/piston combination (18, 20) interposed between a pulling assembly (12, 14, 16) and a pushing assembly (28, 30) operates to cause the exertion of pulling and pushing forces on the universal joint, so that a journal bearing is forced out of the universal joint.

Date May 29, 1997A multi-compartment container is charged with a plurality of doses of powdered medicament so that the volume of each dose is than that of the respective compartments in which it is contained. A respective protuberance is inserted into each respective compartment, which is then filled with medicament and the protuberance is then removed. The container may take the form of an apertured plate, in which case the filling step can be achieved by placing the container on a porous bed and in communication with a reservoir of particulate material, and then passing gas through the reservoir, the apertures in the container and the bed. There is also shown apparatus for performing the method, the apparatus comprising a reservoir for the particulate material and a conduit for relaying particulate material from the reservoir to the compartments, the conduit including protuberances which are insertable into the compartments to reduce the available volume of the latter. The size of the doses can be controlled by appropriate selection of protuberance dimensions, and a plate-type container, when filled by the method, can be relatively easily sealed by, for example, the application of laminated foil.
