Title: Body massage apparatus
IPC: A61H23/04
Filed: 1990-06-19
Granted: 1992-11-19
Abstract: An apparatus for full length and localized massage of a user's body includes a bed structure having a housing defining an interior chamber, a liquid reservoir basin beneath the chamber, and an upwardly-facing opening horizontally across which a resiliently flexible membrane is sealingly affixed in tensioned condition to form a user body support surface. The reservoir basin contains a quantity of a massage liquid, preferably water, with the remainder of the chamber being filled with air. A massage head having multiple liquid emission openings therein is disposed within the chamber for lengthwise traversing travel with the emission openings facing the membrane. A pump communicates with the reservoir basin and with a downstream series of conduits connected to the massage head for withdrawing the massage liquid from the reservoir basin and supplying the liquid under pressure to the massage head for emission against the underside of the membrane to transmit a massaging effect to the body of a user laying thereon.

Title: Enhanced anti-cancer agent delivery to solid tumors by primer compounds
Inventor: RUBIN KRISTOFER
IPC: A61K31/5575
Filed: 1998-05-26
Granted: 2001-05-31
Abstract: Primer compositions for anti-cancer agent delivery to solid tumors in mammals, including man, are disclosed. The primer comprise a pharmaceutically acceptable agent which increases the intracellular levels of cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in the normal connective tissue cells within solid tumors. Such an agent may be selected from any agents which increase the intracellular levels of cAMP, e.g. agents binding to and stimulating receptors at the connective tissue cell surface within tumors, and agents inhibiting cAMP phosphodiesterase. Local administration of the primer to the solid tumor area results in a lowering of the interstitial pressure. Further, an agent delivery system and a method for delivery of anti-cancer agents to solid tumors are described.

Title: An internal combustion engine
Inventor: MERRITT DAN
IPC: F02B23/04
Filed: 1991-07-23
Granted: 1994-03-24
Abstract: An internal combustion engine has first and second cylinders (12, 14), the first cylinder (12) having a larger swept volume than the second cylinder (14) and the second cylinder being formed in the crown of the first cylinder. First and second pistons (16, 18) are reciprocable respectively in the first and second cylinders (12, 14), the second piston (18) being formed as a protrusion on the crown of the first piston (16). The first cylinder has an air inlet (25) and an exhaust outlet (27) whilst a first fuel source (34) provides fuel to the second cylinder (14). The second piston has a crown (35) which is spaced from and connected to the crown (36) of the first piston and which has an edge (37) which is relatively thin in the axial direction compared to the spacing of the first piston crown from the second piston crown. This defines a combustion space (20) between the piston crowns and a side wall (14a) of the second cylinder (14) when the pistons are substantially at the inner dead centre position. The combustion space (20) communicates with both cylinders (12,14) during part of the expansion stroke. Inhibiting means is also provided for inhibiting ingression prior to the pistons (16,18) arriving at or adjacent the inner dead centre position. This can take the form of a gap (128) between the second piston crown (35) and the second cylinder side wall (14a) with a peripheral groove (39) in the second cylinder wall at its upper end to enable the fuel/air mixture in the second cylinder (14) above the crown (35) to bypass the piston crown when the latter is at its inner dead centre position and enter the combustion space (20).

Patent DE-2038537-B2 (DE)
Title: Monitor cct. for teletype transmission lines - consists of relay transistor cct. with two time constants
IPC: H04L12/02
Filed: 1970-08-03
Abstract: A transistor based circuit for monitoring teletype transmission signal lengths is presented in which a fault condition, which negates a signal of too long a duration, activates a relay. The teletype transmission line current is passed through a series resistance across which a full wave diode bridge is connected. This drives a transistor circuit which in turn charges a capacitance with a time constant of some 12 mS. If this time is exceeded a further chain of two transistors is switched on, which then activates a relay, one contact of which operates on the pre-capacitance circuit to further charge up the capacitance to a higher level. It does this with a relatively short time constant and the capacitance remains so charged as long as the transmission line current exceeds the switching threshold.

Patent JP-2612160-B2 (JP)
IPC: A44C11/02
Filed: 1985-04-20
Granted: 1997-05-21
Abstract: A clasp with an interchangeable ornament includes a generally solid male clasp piece which is split longitudinally in a manner that it is transversely resilient, like a clip. A hollow female clasp piece has an insertion opening and an inwardly indented shoulder or lip at the insertion opening. When the male clasp piece is inserted into the female piece the shoulder of the female piece locks into a groove formed in the male clasp piece. Longitudinally extending slits in the peripheral wall of the female piece makes it transversely elastic and enables it to tightly hold an interchangeable ornamental sleeve that is fitted over the female piece. The ornamental sleeve in turn prevents the slit peripheral wall of the female piece from separating and assures that the inwardly indented shoulder remains locked in the groove of the male piece. Therefore, the male clasp part can not be a pulled out, except by squeezing the male piece to reduce its transverse cross-section to be smaller than the cross-section of the female piece.
