Abstract: A tensioning device (10) for a conventional drive system, which includes pulleys (not shown) interconnected by a flexible drive element (12), includes a frame assembly (20), upper left and right contact rollers (22) and (24), and lower left and right contact rollers (26) and (28). The frame assembly (20) includes proximal and distal frame sidewalls (38) and (40) which are rectangular in shape. Each contact roller (22, 24, 26 and 28) engages the flexible drive element (12) and forms a U-shaped channel (30) with a bottom circumferential surface (22) and vertical sidewalls (34). The contact rollers (22, 24, 26 and 28) rotatably attach to bearing axles (72, 74, 76 and 78) which connect the contact rollers to the frame sidewalls through their respective positional locating apertures (42, 44, 46 and 48). The bearing axles of the contact rollers can also be selectively secured to the frame sidewalls through horizontal adjustment apertures (52, 54, 56 and 58) to adjustably secure the upper contact rollers (22 and 24) a selected distance from one another, and adjustably secure the lower contact rollers (26 and 28) a selected distance from one another, thereby optimizing the locations in which the tensioning device (10) applies biasing force to the drive belt (12). The bearing axles (72, 74, 76 and 78) of the contact rollers (22, 24, 26 and 28) can also be connected to the frame sidewalls (38 and 40) through the vertical adjustment apertures (62, 64, 66 and 68) to adjustably secure the upper contact rollers (22 and 24) a selected distance from the lower rollers (26 and 28), thereby adjusting the tensioning device (10) so as to apply a suitable tensioning force to the drive belt (12).

Abstract: The invention concerns a microparticulate system for delayed and controlled release of active principles whereof the in vivo absorption window is essentially limited to the high parts of the gastrointestinal tract, said system being designed for oral administration. The invention aims at providing a system for reliably releasing active principles through a double time-dependent and pH-dependent mechanism. Therefor, the invention proposes a multiple microcapsule galenic oral formulation designed so as to guarantee its therapeutic efficacy, and wherein the release of active principles is controlled by a double release-triggering mechanism: time-triggering and pH-triggering. Said system consists of microcapsules (200 to 600 mu m) comprising a core of active principles coated with a coating film (not more than 40 wt. %) including a hydrophilic polymer A (Eudradigit3L) and a hydrophobic compound B (vegetable wax with melting point between 40 to 90 DEG C), B/A ranging between 0.2 and 1.5. Said microcapsules have a dissolving behaviour in vitro such that at constant pH 1.4, a latent period ranging between 1 and 5 hours is observed followed by a release of active principles and such that the shift from pH 1.4 to of pH 6.8 results in a release of active principles without latent time in vitro.
