Publication number: 20100251664Abstract: The present invention is a tool for forming aligned repeating pattern impressions in a deformable material. This tool comprises an upper support plate with at least one handle and a lower forming surface adjacent the upper support plate. The lower forming surface has raised elements designed to form pattern impressions in the deformable material. The raised elements are defined in part by four opposite edges forming a lower perimeter adjacent an upper perimeter of the upper support plate. One of two edges of the lower perimeter is designed to create a respective impression that will match only with an impression created by a respective one of two opposite edges. To ensure proper alignment of the impression, the tool also is provided with alignment indicia to align a first impression made by one continuous perimeter edge of the raised elements to a subsequent impression made by the opposite perimeter edge of the raised elements.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 6, 2009Publication date: October 7, 2010Inventor: Antonio Pinto

Patent number: 7126173Abstract: An electronic power device of improved structure is fabricated with MOS technology to have a gate finger region and corresponding source regions on either sides of the gate region. This device has a first-level metal layer arranged to independently contact the gate region and source regions, and has a protective passivation layer arranged to cover the gate region. Advantageously, a wettable metal layer, deposited onto the passivation layer and the first-level metal layer, overlies said source regions. In this way, the additional wettable metal layer is made to act as a second-level metal.Type: GrantFiled: October 30, 2002Date of Patent: October 24, 2006Assignee: STMicroelectronics, S.r.l.Inventors: Ferruccio Frisina, Antonio Pinto, Angelo Magri

Publication number: 20060065401Abstract: A riser monitoring assembly is provided to monitor and manage a riser extending between subsea well equipment and a floating vessel. A riser measurement instrument module is connected adjacent a selected portion of the riser provides dynamic orientation data for the selected portion of the riser. A computer having a memory associated therewith and riser system analyzing management software stored thereon is in communication with the riser measurement module to process data received therefrom. The riser monitoring assembly can utilize real-time orientation data for the selected portion of the riser to analyze the riser dynamic behavior, to determine a model of the real-time structure of the riser, to determine and manage the existence of vortex induced vibration, to determine and manage riser stress levels, to manage riser inspection and riser maintenance, and to supplement determination and management of the position of the vessel.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2004Publication date: March 30, 2006Inventors: John Allen, Antonio Pinto

Publication number: 20060029618Abstract: This invention is concerned with a vaccine against dental caries obtained from the supernatant over cultures of the cariogenic bacteria Streptococcus sobrinus and S. mutans that consists of extracellular proteins. These proteins provide the suppression of the immune response in the host through the early production of IL-10, an anti-inflammatory cytokine and are, for that reason, virulent factors to the microorganism enhancing bacterial load in the host. These proteins were designated as virulence-associated immunomodulatory extracellular proteins (VIP). Vaccination through the host immunization with active VIP in a submitogenis dose, inactivated VIP or enolase in a dose unable to induce immunosuppression, induces the immunoneutralization of the VIP immunobiological effects. Vaccination can be used both as a preventive or therapeutic measure of dental caries as long as it is administered (intranasally, orally or subcutaneously) into mammals before or after bacterial infection, respectively.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 6, 2004Publication date: February 9, 2006Inventors: Maria da Conceicao Tavares Gomes, Paula das Neves Ferreira da Silva, Manuel Rua Vilanova, Antonio de Meneses Moreira da Fonseca, Antonio Silverio Cabrita, Antonio Pinto do Amaral Coutinho
