IPC: B65D85/48
Filed: 2000-11-24
Abstract: An assembly of stacked modular containers for handling, transporting and storing microscope specimen slides is described. The side walls of the rectangular-shaped containers have slide interconnections so that the containers may be longitudinally slid relative to one another. A releasable locking arrangement is provided on the extension of one of the other container walls to prevent unwarranted longitudinal sliding movement of the containers and to retain them in a secured stack formation. The extension of the container wall is made flexible to enable manual disengagement of locking members on the extension to thereby allow the sliding of containers for insertion or removal of slides into and from the containers.

Title: Method and system for displaying and configuring component and process structures
Inventor: MUEHLECK PETER
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 1999-08-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a computer-aided system which is capable of displaying component and process structures for configurable product classes, said product classes being stored in a data structure.      Product classes in the data structure are represented by product nodes. Components, which are abstractions of actual items used in the product, are represented by component nodes. Component nodes are mapped onto each product class to which the component is allocated, and are allocated to one or more component variants, these being actual items used in the production of a particular product variant. Process nodes, which are abstractions of actual steps required to produce a product variant, known as process variants, are represented by process nodes. On receiving the selection of a particular product class, the computer-aided system transfers all of the component nodes and process nodes that are allocated to this product class and is able to represent them graphically, for example.      Alternatively, the system receives the input of a product variant and displays all of the component variants used in the production of this product variant, in the form of lists of materials.

Title: Process for the treatment of waste water containing heavy metals
Inventor: DIJKMAN HENK
IPC: B01J8/12
Filed: 1999-12-29
Abstract: A process for the treatment of waste water containing heavy metals is disclosed in which sulphur components and/or metals are biologically reduced to precipitate the metals as water-insoluble metal species, which are separated from the waste water. The biological reduction and the precipitation of the metal species are carried out in a moving sand bed, in which sand particles partly immobilise the bacteria and retain the precipitated metal species, treated waste water is separated from the precipitated metal species, and the precipitated metal species are subsequently separated from the sand particles. Metals like selenium and uranium can be precipitated without sulphur components, whereas metals like antimony, cadmium, copper, zinc and the like are precipitated as sulphides.

Title: Cdma signal transmission control
Inventor: FUNK THOMAS J
IPC: H04B1/707
Filed: 2000-03-10
Abstract: The invention is a CDMA transmission control technology (600) that includes various combinations of the following functionality: decresting, in-band to out-of-band ratio (RIO), (611) power control, and spectral shaping (614). Decresting reduces peaks in the CDMA signal. RIO (612) generates a ratio based on the signal strength of in-band versus out-of-band portions of the CDMA signal. Power control adjusts the gain of the CDMA signal based on quadrature signal calculations.  Spectral shaping attenuates in-band portions of the CDMA signal adjacent to the corner frequencies. The CDMA transmission control technology can be implemented in a CDMA base station to extend range and capacity.
