Abstract: Digital data processing means employing a method for separating acceptable spellings of words from nonacceptable spellings wherein each word comprises characters assigned positions. The character positions in each word are assigned increasing values from one end of the word to the other, positions of the same number of characters from the same end of each word being assigned the same value. Two words to be compared are called a query word and a candidate word. The method incudes the following steps. A representation of a character in a given position of the query word is compared with representations of characters in the next lower position, the same position, and the next higher position in the candidate word and a compare type indication is formed representing a match or a mismatch between each query word character and the candidate word characters under comparison. The given position of the query word under comparison is changed to the next higher valued position of the query word and the preceding step is repeated to form another compare type indication. The compare type indications are processed to thereby form a spelling classification indication for one of the words under comparison representing an acceptable spelling or a nonacceptable spelling with *  respect to the other.

Abstract: A process for the affinity chromatographic separation of at least one biological or related substance from a mixture wherein the at least one biological or related substance is bound to a binding material, having a ligand containing at least one of the groups anthraquinone, phthalocyanine or aromatic azo, in the presence of at least one metal ion selected from the group Ca<sup>2+</sup>, Sr<sup>2+</sup>, Ba<sup>2+</sup>, A1<sup>3+</sup>, Co2+ Ni<sup>2+</sup>, Cu2+ or <sub>Zn2+</sub>. The preferred metal ions are Co2+, Ni<sup>2+</sup> and Zn<sup>2+</sup>, with Zn<sup>2+</sup> being particularly preferred.The ligand may be linked directly to the matrix or via a spacer arm. The process may be performed at atmospheric pressure or under pressure, especially high pressure (100-3500psi). The nature of the contact, washing and eluting solutions depends on the substance to be separated. Generally the contact solution is made up of the substance to be separated and a metal salt dissolved in a buffer solution, whilst the washing solution comprises the same metal salt dissolved in the same buffer. The eluting solution, may be a buffer solution, either alone or containing a chelating agent or it may be an alkali metal salt or a specific desorbing agent. Alternatively the eluting solution may be a mixture of two or more of these solutions or two or more of these solutions used consecutively.

Abstract: In a combinatorial weighing method of measuring out a desired quantity of articles, respective batches of articles are delivered to weighing machines which provide respective measures of the individual weights of those batches. Respective total weights of different combinations of the batches are then calculated, using those measures, and a "best" combination (having a total weight equal or closest to a preselected value) is identified. The batches of that identified combination are brought together to make up the desired quantity of articles. To speed up such calculation the different combinations whose respective total weights are calculated are restricted in number, as compared with the total number of possible different combinations of the batches, so as to exclude at least one preselected type of combination that is inherently unlikely to be identified as the "best" combination.

Abstract: This invention provides an aspirator apparatus for the in line string up of a rapidly advancing filament from a continuous forming operation onto a rotating winding wheel. A top aspirator plate is disposed opposite and in facing relation to a bottom plate and is movable relative thereto.

This aspiration zone has at least one aspirator inlet portion to receive filament, an aspirator outlet portion to exit the filament and an aspirator jet portion to capture, tension and direct the filament. A fluid jet means communicates with the jet portion to provide an aspirating jet of pressurized fluid therein, and a transport means moves the apparatus to effect filament string-up.

Abstract: Locking means in a gearchange mechanism for fixing the neutral position and the gear end positions, a locking element (3) which is guided and restrained in the gear-shift housing (5) being pressed under the action of a spring (4) against an actuating member (2), which also actuates shifting clutches, the correspondingly configured blocking element locking into a notch (21) of this shifting finger in the neutral position and locking taking place in the end position or positions at the outer contour (22, 22A) or in further notches. If the locking element (3) is pressed in the direction of a gear end position (E) on displacing the shifting finger (2) from the neutral position (N), this element is raised and performs a tilting movement until the shifting finger (2) has reached the gear end position (E). The locking element (3) is supported by bolts (6, 6A), which are fixed in the gear-shift housing (5), in the neutral position and in the gear end positions, whereas on displacement, that is to say during the tilting movement, rotation is effected about a bolt with a very low bearing force and a small friction path. As a result of this tilting movement, a very easy gear shift with a reliable locking is achieved. <IMAGE>
