Title: Process for manufacturing cellulose moulded bodies
Inventor: ZIKELI STEFAN
IPC: D01F2/02
Filed: 1993-03-17
Granted: 1996-05-15
Abstract: To give a cellulose marked body, a cellulose soln. is shaped while hot in a tert. amine oxide and the shaped soln. is fed to a pptn. bath. Before the hot and shaped soln. is passed to the bath, it is cooled directly after shaping. An appts. has a feed for cooling gas directly below the openings of a spinnerette to cool the cellulose filaments. A gas stream (6) is used to cool the warm material, at right angles to it, or the film formation is at right angles to the gas stream. Two gas streams (6) are used for cooling, from opposite sides of the warm material. In another form, one gas stream can be directed radially inwards at the material and the other stream radially outwards. For the cooling action, heat is extracted from the material at least at 20 kj/kg of soln. and pref. 20-350 kj/kg of soln.

Abstract: There is presented for a multiprocessor-controlled system MPS, which has decentralised processor devices DZP arranged on electronic modules BG, an electronic module BG which can be used both for a loadable version of the system and for a system version provided with a PROM. To this end, the module BG has a first memory region ROM which is designed as a read-only memory and in which there is stored a loading sequence which controls program transfer to the module BG. Prior to initial commissioning of the module BG, the control program sequence for implementing the module function is stored in a second memory region FLEP which is designed as a flash EPROM, the flash EPROM being used to store a new control program sequence, which replaces the stored control program sequence and can be communicated by means of program transfer, when the module is contained in a loadable version. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for immunoassay of a viral antigen is performed on a membrane precoated with an inert protein. Nonimmunological capture of antigen takes place by absorption onto the coated membrane. Captured antigen binds to a tracer which includes a label conjugated to a specific antibody, the inert protein concomitantly inhibiting nonspecific binding of tracer. The label may be an enzyme which converts a substrate to a detectable product or converts a blocked inhibitor to an inhibitor whereby a second enzyme is inhibited from converting a substrate to a product. The invention includes a kit of materials for performing an assay in accordance with the method of the invention.

Abstract: Described is a device for dissolving gases in liquids, in particular for the continuous upgrading of aquarium water with CO2 gas. The device consists of at least two chambers (1) disposed one above the other and open underneath, the chamber openings (2) facing downwards when the device is placed in its position of operation in order to provide well defined gas exchange surfaces (5) with the neighbouring liquid. Adjacent chambers (1) are disposed one above the other in such a way that, when the gas is passed into a lower chamber or the gas-feed chamber (18), the gas which overflows when this chamber is full is trapped in the chamber (1) immediately above it which acts an an air trap. The device is characterized in that at least two consecutive chambers (1) are integrated in a housing made up of two longitudinal elements (3, 4), each of which forms part of the wall of each chamber (1) integrated in the housing (6).

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un support métallique pour catalyseur de nettoyage des gaz d'échappement d'automobiles, de motocycles et de machines d'industrie, ainsi qu'à un procédé de fabrication correspondant. Dans ce support, un noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique est ajusté par pression dans un cylindre métallique externe, et les parties collées d'éléments plats et ondulés, qui constituent le noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique, sont composées de soudure appliquée sur les sommets ou les arêtes des éléments ondulés, la soudure étant appliquée par points ou sous forme d'une pluralité de bandes ou de lignes. L'épaisseur de la soudure au niveau des parties collées des éléments plats et ondulés est inférieure à 100 νm, et les positions des parties collées des surfaces externe et interne de chacun des éléments plats et ondulés diffèrent les unes des autres. Ces parties collées sont en outre entourées d'une partie non colllée s'étendant à partir d'une surface terminale du noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique du côté introduction des gaz d'échappement, sur une longueur non inférieure à 5 % de la longueur totale du noyau à structure en nid d'abeille. Ce support se caractérise en outre par le fait que les parties collées de la surface circonférentielle externe d'un noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique et de la surface circonférentielle interne du cylindre métallique externe se présentent sous la forme d'une pluralité de bandes ou rubans, ou par le fait que les parties collées des éléments plats et ondulés les plus externes du noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique et celles du cylindre métallique externe ne sont pas allignées les unes sur les autres, le noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique et le cylindre métallique externe étant reliés par un collage intermittent à la fois dans la direction axiale et dans la direction circonférentielle. Le procédé pour fabriquer un tel support métallique se caractérise par le fait qu'on combine un cylindre métallique externe et un noyau à structure en nid d'abeille métallique en ajustant par pression le noyau dans le cylindre, de sorte que la soudure sous forme de pâte épaisse appliquée sur le sommet des éléments ondulés est maintenue fluidifiée, tandis que la soudure appliquée sur la surface interne du cylindre métallique externe n'est pas maintenue fluidifiée.

Abstract: Un microscope acoustique permet de mesurer en même temps la topographie et les propriétés d'élasticité d'un échantillon (11). La déviation d'une pointe de mesure (1) est mesurée au moyen de la déflexion d'un faisceau laser (22). Pour mesurer la topographie, la déviation moyenne de la pointe de mesure (1) est maintenue constante par un circuit de régulation. Le circuit de régulation comprend une photodiode segmentée (24) qui fournit un signal neutre à la sortie d'un amplificateur de normalisation (29) lorsque la déviation de la pointe de mesure (1) est moyenne. Des écarts par rapport au signal neutre peuvent être compensés par une électrode z (8) d'un cristal piézoélectrique. Afin de mesurer les propriétés d'élasticité de l'échantillon, des ultrasons sont transmis à l'échantillon par une tête de transmission (9) et la déviation de haute fréquence de la pointe de mesure (1) peut être détectée par un deuxième dispositif de détection constitué d'un dispositif d'obscurcissement (36) et d'une photodiode rapide (37). Le deuxième dispositif de détection peut également être constitué d'un interféromètre hétérodyne à temps de propagation ou d'un dispositif capacitif de détection purement électronique.

The sensor (S) has a light projector and a light receptor. The sensor (S) is adjusted in such a manner that a directional axis (d) of a region (detecting region) where a projecting region of the light projector and a light receiving region of the light receptor overlap intersects a discharge flow of water and an angle of intersection is constantly made equal to or smaller than 70 DEG  irrespective of an amount of water flow. A level of reflected light detected by the light receptor is periodically sampled so that a mean value and a dispersion value are calculated from the latest height lots of sample data. So, starting and stopping of discharge of water is controlled on the basis of the mean value and dispersion value. <IMAGE>
