Title: Led wayside signal for a railway
Inventor: SANDERSON JOHN RICHARD
IPC: B61L5/18
Filed: 2000-10-27
Abstract: A wayside signal for a railway includes a plurality of light emitting diodes housed in a housing. The light emitting diodes output indication signals. Further, the light emitting diodes are configured on a first circuit board which is thermally coupled to the housing. The housing may also include heat sink fins to dissipate heat generated by the light emitting diodes and associated driving circuitry for driving the light emitting diodes also contained within the housing. An additional light emitting diode may also be contained within the housing to point in an opposite direction than the indication signal light emitting diodes, which additional light emitting diode may be formed on a second circuit board with the driving circuitry. The additional light emitting diode provides an indication to anyone behind the wayside signal as to the indication of the wayside signal. The wayside signal is further optimized for thermal efficiency and to be sealed against the elements. In regard to thermal efficiency, the first circuit board may be metal clad and the housing may be formed of black anodized aluminum. Also, a plastic insulator may be attached to the housing and covered with a lamp base. The lamp base may be configured to be inserted into a conventional socket for a wayside signal, so that the wayside signal of the present invention can be utilized with existing circuitry.

Title: Rotary valve controlled apparatus for stripping cans from bodymaking ram
Inventor: MAIN RALPH M
IPC: F16K21/00
Filed: 1995-03-16
Abstract: A press for forming the relatively long cylindrical body of a so-called two piece beverage can utilizes a horizontally reciprocating ram to drive a relatively short cup through a circular die pack. Compressed air applied through a rotary valve is utilized to strip the bodies from the ram. Such valve includes a continuously rotating rotor that is mechanically connected to the drive for the ram such that for each rotor revolution the ram moves through a complete cycle consisting of a forward working stroke followed by a rearward return stroke. The rotor is constructed of two disks that abut face to face. A rotor drive shaft extends through the center of the rotor and the angular position of the disks relative to each other is adjustable to adjust the portion of each rotor revolution during which compressed air is applied for stripping. Each disk is provided with an arcuate aperture and the extent to which these apertures overlap determines how long compressed air is applied for stripping. The angular position of the rotor on the drive shaft determines when compressed air is applied for stripping.

Inventor: KOLTA PETER
IPC: B01F5/00
Filed: 1988-10-21
Abstract: A method for introducing gas like oxygen, air or carbon dioxide into water, in which a water flow enriched in the gas is passed through a reaction chamber so that the flow rotates around and moves along the longitudinal axis, a sudden pressure minimum is provided in a section of this axis where gas comprised in the flow gets collected and mixed with vapor, the pressure is increased after the minimum, whereby gas is swallowed by water so that gas molecules get bound to water molecules. The apparatus for carrying out the method comprises a closed recirculating path with the reaction chamber (15), the flow is maintained by a pump (14), and the gas is introduced in the water either by a vortex stream or by a water jet pump. The so obtained water comprises the gas in stable and bound state in a concentration exceeding normal saturation.

Title: Preparations for the treatment of Aids comprising peptides derived from a human protein Ezrin
Inventor: HOLMS RUPERT DONALD
IPC: C07K14/16
Filed: 1995-06-02
Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to provide preparations for the treatment or prophylaxis of AIDS and systemic lupus erythematosus and related disorders. The invention is based on the discovery of the process triggered in the immune system by HIV which leads to AIDS. HIV has a specific mechanism to activate the immune system to allow it to replicate and this same immune activation leads to an autoimmune process which eventually leads to AIDS. The preparation for treatment comprises novel synthesized peptides whose amino acid sequences are derived from a human protein called ezrin and are based on the following sequence: NH2ThrGluLysLysArgArgGluThrValGluArgGluLysGluCOOH SEQ ID. No. 2. The mechanism of action of these peptides is that they switch off specific retrovirally induced immune responses by immunological tolerance.

Inventor: SANDISON MALCOLM
IPC: D21B1/36
Filed: 1999-03-08
Abstract: The invention provides a process and apparatus for the treatment and recovery of fiberboard and particle board waste. Waste fiberboard and particle board is fed into a steam chamber and steam treated with steam under pressure from a steam generator. When the steam treatment is completed any effluent and excess steam are evacuated from the chamber and the steam treated waste is passed through a rotating trommel. Woodfibers and woodchips pass through the screens of the trommel and are collected for drying and further processing. Waste material, such as melamine coatings, passes through the trommel for collection and disposal. The collected woodfiber and woodchips can be processed for reuse in paper, cardboard or particle board manufacture or as mulch and other ground cover material.

Patent AU-3138995-A (AU)
Title: Electrical connections with deformable contacts
Inventor: DISTEFANO THOMAS H
IPC: H05K3/42
Filed: 1995-07-19
Abstract: An interposer for interconnection between microelectronic circuit panels (260) has contacts (250) at its surfaces. Each contact has a central axis normal to the surface and a peripheral portion adapted to expand radially outwardly from the central axis responsive to a force applied by a pad (262) on the engaged circuit panel. Thus, when the circuit panels (260) are compressed with the interposers, the contacts expand radially and wipe across the pads (262). The wiping action facilitates bonding of the contacts to the pads, as by conductive bonding material (246) carried on the contacts themselves.   <IMAGE>

Filed: 2000-05-08
Abstract: The system uses a correction applied to the local oscillator, in response to measurement of base station transmissions. In order to resolve the problem of ageing of a local oscillator and its consequent drift, in a mobile telephone, a shift is applied (6) to the oscillator frequency (Fi). A measurement is made of the FCH type frequency signal received from the base stat in order to determine the precise frequency being used for the communication. In response to this measurement the local frequenc adjusted in order to match the required transmission frequency. A correction circuit is used, with an algorithm provided to pred the correction which must be applied in order to achieve the desired frequency.

Title: Method for generating an alarm indication signal (ais)
Inventor: THOMA WOLFGANG
IPC: H04B17/40
Filed: 1989-05-17
Abstract: In centrally controlled network changeover systems, the central stations are only informed about a reception of AIS signals or the finding of defects in the digital signal by digital cross-connect units but not by other link devices. Since the digital cross-connect units cannot recognise where an AIS signal has been fed in, identical messages may be supplied several times without indicating to the central station whether there is one or several fault points along the link. 
<??>A modified AIS signal is introduced which consists of the familiar standardised AIS signal in the form of an all-ones signal and an identification. These are either equidistantly inserted single zeros with a frequency of less than 10<-3> or is an additional signal. When a digital cross-connect unit (8) receives a standardised AIS signal or recognises any other defect, it feeds a modified AIS signal into the outgoing link (15). Only the subsequent digital cross-connect units (9, 10, 11, 12) detect the modification and, in turn, feed in such a signal and dispense with a message to a regional centre (3, 4). The network management centre 1 switches a stand-by link (16) on the basis of the message of the digital cross-connect unit (8). 
<??>The invention is used in centrally controlled network changeover systems.
