20100126658 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING A Z-SECTION COMPONENT FROM COMPOSITE MATERIAL - A method of manufacturing a Z-section component from composite material uses a mould having a convex mould portion and a concave mould portion. The method includes the preparation of a vacuum bag for a polymerization cycle, including the covering the fresh component with a layer of peel ply formed from a plurality of strips of peel ply and fixing the layer of peel ply perimetrically to the mould using an adhesive tape. A line of sealant is positioned perimetrically above the adhesive tape around the fresh component and a separator film is positioned above the layer of peel ply so as to cover the layer of peel ply and the perimetric line of sealant. A ventilation textile is placed perimetrically on the mould, the textile having an aperture which is positioned so as to leave uncovered an underlying part substantially coinciding with the fresh component. A vacuum bag is applied for the polymerization cycle. | 05-27-2010 |

20140304149 | INTER-CURRENCY CHEQUE PAYMENT CLEARING - A method of cheque payment clearing involves a payee financial institution receiving an electronic representation of a paper cheque. The electronic cheque representation identifies a payment amount, a payor financial institution and a payor account. The payment amount is payable from the payor account in a first currency. The payee institution (i) electronically transmits to the payor institution a transaction origination message identifying a payee account, the payment amount, and an equivalent amount that comprises the payment amount converted to a second currency different from the first currency; (ii) electronically receives from the payor institution a transaction response message identifying a confirmation of a debit entry in the payment amount posted to the payor account and, in accordance with the confirmation, (iii) applies to a payee account a credit entry in the equivalent amount. The equivalent amount is payable from the payee account in the second currency. | 10-09-2014 |
20140337235 | PERSON-TO-PERSON ELECTRONIC PAYMENT PROCESSING - A method of person-to-person anonymous electronic payment processing may involve a payment processing server receiving from a payor payment device a payment initiation request for a payment from a payor account. The payment initiation request may identify a payment amount and excludes payee particulars and the payee account. The server may also receive from a payee payment device a payment completion request requesting completion of the payment. The payment completion request may include a payee identifier and exclude the payment amount, payor account and payor particulars. The server may confirm that the payment completion request is uniquely associated with the payee payment device and the payee identifier, and determine the payment amount and the payor account by correlating the payment completion request with the payment initiation request. In accordance with an outcome of the confirming, the payment processing server may effect a transfer in the payment amount from the payor account to the payee account. | 11-13-2014 |
20150032634 | CLOUD-BASED ELECTRONIC PAYMENT PROCESSING - A payment processing server generates an asymmetric cryptographic key pair, over one secure communications channel providing a mobile device with one cryptographic key of the cryptographic key pair, and saves another cryptographic key of the cryptographic key pair in a pending transaction database in unique association with a single-use payment number and a financial account. The server encrypts the payment number, which does not identify the financial account, with the another cryptographic key and provides the mobile device with the encrypted payment number over another secure communications channel distinct from the one secure communications channel. The server receives from a payment terminal a payment completion request that includes the encrypted payment number decrypted with the one cryptographic key. The payment processing server queries the pending transaction database with the decrypted payment number to identify the associated financial account, and effects completion of the transaction using the identified financial account. | 01-29-2015 |

20140335038 | METHOD OF STRENGTHENING HAIR FIBRES - Hair can be damaged in a number of ways including exposure to heat, bleaching, use of shampoos and styling products, brushing and combing, and exposure to the environment, for example ultra-violet light. Existing treatments designed to repair damaged hair make use of surface active materials that mask the problem rather than actually repairing the hair. These materials modify fibre feel by changing consumer perceivable fibre sensory cues such as smoothness, may change some measurable physical properties such as hydrophobicity and hydrophilicity, but do not change other physical characteristics such as fibre stiffness, strength or structural integrity. The invention relates to a method of repairing hair fibres using flavonoids, hydrogen peroxide and a peroxidase enzyme. | 11-13-2014 |

20130202539 | ORAL CARE COMPOSITIONS - The invention provides an oral care composition obtainable by: (i) preparing an oil-in-water emulsion by dispersing an oil phase into an aqueous continuous phase, the aqueous continuous phase comprising an oil-in-water emulsifier which is selected from one or more hydrophobins, so that emulsified particles of oil phase are formed which are emulsified with the one or more hydrophobins; and (ii) combining the emulsion so obtained with an oral care base formulation which is suitable for treating the surfaces of the oral cavity. Compositions of the invention demonstrate enhanced deposition of oil phase components onto oral cavity surfaces such as tooth enamel and tooth dentine, and in particular onto damaged surfaces such as scratched and demineralised enamel. | 08-08-2013 |

20110226407 | METHOD OF MANUFACTURING SPARS, LONGERONS AND FUSELAGE BEAMS HAVING A VARIABLE H CROSS-SECTION - A beam of fibre-reinforced curable thermosetting composite material is preliminarily assembled in an uncured condition. The beam is placed between two forming tools, namely a lower and an upper tool, shaped in such a way as to give the lower and upper flanges a predetermined shape, at least one of the flanges having a non-rectilinear profile viewed in a longitudinal vertical plane. Two longitudinally elongate rigid inserts are placed between the flanges at the sides of the web and are covered in respective airtight tubular bags. The spaces between the upper tool and the lower tool on the two opposite longitudinal sides are sealed. The open opposite ends of the tubular bags are also sealed in such a manner that the pressure applied in an autoclave during the step of curing causes the tubular bags to swell and presses them against the two opposite faces of the web and against the flanges of the beam. On completion of curing, the upper forming tool is removed and the inserts are extracted sideways. | 09-22-2011 |

20150157733 | POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL DERIVATIVES OF PALMITOYLETHANOLAMIDE AND ANALOGOUS ACYLETHANOLAMIDES - The synthesis of a series of Polyethylene glycol conjugates (esters and carbonates) of PEA and its analogous acylethanolamides, have higher water solubility and good hydrophilic/lipophilic balance, resulting in (i) improved accumulation in tissues (particularly skin and mucosae), (ii) prolonged release, and (iii) increased bioavailability. Improvement of PEA and analogous acylethanolamides levels in the tissues—particularly in the skin and mucosae—and their prolonged release is due to the improved bioavailability of related conjugates. Conjugates are able to extend the time frame in which PEA and analogous acylethanolamides exert their pharmacological effects. | 06-11-2015 |

20080266081 | Wireless transceiver management system and method - A method of managing data communications in a wireless security system. A message is transmitted from a fixed location security device and received by at least two transceivers. Each transceiver analyzes the received message to generate RSSI data. A digital message including the RSSI data is sent from each transceiver via a wired connection to a control panel, which analyzes the RSSI data from each transceiver to determine which transceiver generated the highest RSSI. The control panel then designates data exchange responsibility to the transceiver with the highest RSSI. That transceiver will have responsibility for acknowledging messages from that security device and send data to that security device from the control panel. A transceiver will be allocated to a portable security device if it is the first to receive the wireless message rather than on RSSI data. | 10-30-2008 |
