Title: Method of depositing a dry powder and dispensing device
Inventor: CHRAI SUGGY S
IPC: A61J7/00
Filed: 1999-10-25
Granted: 2002-12-19
Abstract: A dry powder, for example, a medicament for an inhaler, comprises elongated particles with an aspect ratio sufficient to cause the particles to be bound to a preferably metal or non-metallic sheet material substrate at the particle tips by electrostatic deposition and for aligning a plurality of particles with their major axes aligned normal to the substrate and oriented tip-to-tip. Particles deposited form a low density, high relative void deposition to minimize attractive forces between the particles. This minimizes agglomeration and bonding forces to the substrate facilitating the release of a powdered medicament in an inhaler. Medicament dosages in a substrate pocket are covered by a sealing layer. An embodiment of a drug dosage inhaler substrate and inhaler is disclosed.

Title: Optical fibre processor
Inventor: SHAW HERBERT JOHN
IPC: G06E3/00
Filed: 1983-06-20
Granted: 1988-04-21
Abstract: An array (48, 49, 50, 51) of fiber optic couplers coupling an input (45) and an output (46) waveguide. The output waveguide (46) is routed among the couplers of the array such that either backward or forward coupling exists. With backward coupling, energy coupled into the output waveguide (46) in a coupler of the array is guided back to the preceding coupler for coupling back into the input waveguide (45). The backward coupling allows recirculations to occur between couplers to create poles and zeroes in the transfer function of the array which transfer function can be programmed or tailored somewhat to have specific characteristics. Further, the backward coupling allows the array to be used for matrix-vector multiplication.

Title: Techniques for providing ink-jet cartridges with a universal body structure
Inventor: BECKER RICHARD A
IPC: B41J2/175
Filed: 2000-11-13
Granted: 2003-12-11
Abstract: A universal inkjet cartridge body with multiple ink reservoirs that can be used for single color or multiple color applications. The ink flow routing is accomplished by merely changing the printhead-to-body sealing structure, which can be an adhesive pattern. This allows for all the reservoirs' inks to be mixed at the head for one cartridge configuration, or the respective inks can be directed to different parts of the printhead for a multiple color application. The same cartridge body structure can be used for two or more cartridge configurations. A nose piece structure defines multiple ink channels leading from the respective ink reservoirs to a printhead mounting region. The sealing structure is applied to mount the printhead to the nose piece and to complete the ink path routing from the reservoirs to the printhead nozzle array(s).

Title: Expanded film base reinforcement for papermaker's belts
Inventor: ROMANSKI ERIC R
IPC: D21F3/02
Filed: 2000-04-12
Granted: 2003-06-05
Abstract: A resin-coated endless belt (16) for a long nip press(10) has a base which is a polymeric film structure in the form of an endless loop with an inner surface (52), an outer surface (54), a transverse direction and a longitudinal direction. The polymeric film structure has a plurality of perforations (56) which may be aligned in one or both of these directions. The polymeric film structure is stretched in the presence of heat to orient the molecular chains in the unperforated intervals between the perforations to provide the structure with tenacity and resistance to further stretching. At least the inner surface (52) of the base (polymeric film structure) is coated with a polymeric resin material, such as polyurethane. The polymeric resin material coats the base and upon curing, forms a mechanical interlock therewith by virtue of the perforations, and renders it impermeable to oil and water. In addition to being useful for a long nip press, the belt may also be used in other papermaking applications, for example, as a calender belt on a calender of the shoe type or on a calender having two or more rolls, or as a transfer belt. <IMAGE>

Title: New heparin derivatives and process for their preparation
Inventor: PIANI SILVANO
IPC: C08B37/10
Filed: 1989-05-24
Granted: 1991-05-30
Abstract: New heparin derivatives having antithrombotic activity, also endowed with reduced hemorrhagic and anticoagulant effects, obtained by treating in a basic medium heparins of various origin, optionally in the presence of alkali metal salts and of a reducing agent. The heparin derivatives obtained through this treatment show peculiar chemico-physical characteristics, like new signals at about 53 and 54 p.p.m. in the <1><3>C-NMR spectrum and a raise of the specific rotatory power, compared to that of the starting heparins, to values between +50 DEG  to +90 DEG . Said structural modifications produce an improvement of the biological properties of the heparin, substantially keeping the antithrombotic activity while diminishing the hemorrhagic effect in vivo and the anticoagulant activity in vitro.

Title: Cosmetic composition and process for making it
Inventor: GOUGH ANTHONY DAVID
IPC: A61Q5/02

Patent AU-678151-B2 (AU)
Title: Apparatus and method for reducing power consumption in a mobile communications receiver
Inventor: TIEDEMANN EDWARD G JR
IPC: H04B7/26
Filed: 1993-03-04
Granted: 1997-05-22
Abstract: A system for reducing receiver power consumption in communication system having a transmitter and one or more receivers schedules periodic messages in "slots." Each receiver is assigned a slot during which it monitors the transmissions. The transmitter transmits messages to the receiver only during the assigned slots. The receiver is in an "active state" during its assigned slot. It may remain in the active state after its assigned slot if the message requires the receiver to perform additional actions. During the "inactive state," which is the time period between successive occurrences of its assigned slot, the receiver may perform any action not requiring coordination with the transmitter. It may conserve power during this time by removing power from one or more components such as those used for monitoring the transmissions. At a time during the inactive state shortly before the assigned slot, the receiver applies power to these components and performs initializations. Such initializations may include reacquiring a pilot channel signal to which the receiver may synchronize itself if its timing signals have drifted out of synchronization with those of the transmitter during the preceding inactive state.
