Abstract: Either one of a facsimile mode to function as a facsimile apparatus and a printer mode to function as a printer is indicated by a mode selection switch, and when a facsimile signal is received in the printer mode, the facsimile mode is automatically set. When a signal is received from an external equipment such as a computer in the facsimile mode, the printer mode is automatically set but the switching to the printer mode is inhibited if unprinted received data is stored in an image memory. 
     When data is not supplied from the external equipment for a predetermined time period in the printer mode, the facsimile mode is set.

Abstract: A method of measuring the velocities of water volumes flowing co-directionally in separate conduits (14, 18) nested such as in injection or production well-bores allows an oxygen activation measurement of the velocity of the water flow in the tubing-casing annulus (20) in the presence of water flowing in the tubing string in the same direction. The method provides continuous logging at variable or constant cable velocities or stationary logging. Based on the method of velocity gauging, the method isolates the signal from the annular flow and can produce a continuous log of linear and volumetric annular flow rates with depth.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a self-refrigerating process for cryogenic fractionation and purification of gas, and a heat exchanger for carrying out this process. The gaseous fluid is treated in an exchanger forming a unitary assembly: it is partially condensed by cooling in the circuits (C5) and (C1) and the uncondensed gaseous fraction is reheated in the circuit (C2). The required cold is supplied by the condensates which, after supercooling (C3) and pressure reduction (V1) evaporate (C4). The process can be carried out in an exchanger comprising multiple channels for each circuit. This process allows the purification of a gaseous fluid having a plurality of components which can be condensed by cooling. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A liquid medicine containing capsaicin in solution as active ingredient for the treatment of chronic rhinopathy is described. The active ingredient solution is a neutral, aqueous solution with a very low active ingredient concentration. Whereas capsaicin has hitherto regularly been applied by the physician, after preceding local anaesthesia, in highly concentrated form to the nasal mucosa, the composition according to the invention can be applied, in particular in the form of a nasal spray, by the patients themselves. The therapeutic efficacy is nevertheless surprisingly high and sufficient.

Filed: 1993-12-04
Abstract: The proposal is for a process for the adaptive knock control of an internal combustion engine designed to adjust the angular ignition spacing of an engine in the 'delay' direction when knocking occurs and then in the 'advance' direction. At the same time the engine is to have sub-divided operating ranges in which a delay value found during operation in a range is always stored when that range is left. Especially an average of all the angular ignition spacings issued in a range or a delay value added by a digital low-pass is to be stored hereby.

Abstract: An electrode catheter for mapping right sided supra-ventricular accessory electrical pathways comprises an elongated tubular catheter body and a tip portion which comprises a compound curve. The compound curve has a first bend and a second bend which forms a generally circular curve. The plane of the generally circular curve lies transverse to and preferably at an angle of about 30 DEG  to the axis of the catheter body. The generally circular curve portion of the tip portion carries a plurality of electrodes. A puller wire extends through the catheter body and into the tip portion, the distal end of the puller wire being fixedly attached to the distal end of the tip portion. A handle is provided at the proximal end of the catheter for controlling longitudinal movement of the puller wire relative to the catheter body. Proximal movement of the puller wire relative to the catheter body results in the angle of the first bend becoming more acute and a decrease in the diameter of the generally circular curve of the tip portion.

Abstract: In a process for continuously refining a quartz powder inside a rotating cylindrical quartz glass tube, the rotating cylindrical quartz glass tube is partitioned into at least 3 chambers comprising a pre-heating chamber, a reaction chamber, and a gas desorption chamber, said process characterized in that it comprises pre-heating the starting quartz powder by continuously supplying it into the pre-heating chamber, refining the powder by transferring it into the reaction chamber in which the powder is brought into contact with a chlorine-containing gas atmosphere, and transferring the powder into the gas desorption chamber; the chambers may be partitioned using a sectioning board having an opening. 
     The process for refining quartz powder according to the present invention favorably purifies a quartz powder, and particularly, it favorably removes alkali metal elements such as sodium and potassium, as well as transition metal elements such as iron, copper, chromium, and nickel from a powder of naturally occurring quartz. The process according to the present invention also removes alkaline earth metal elements such as magnesium and calcium. Furthermore, it is of high productivity because it can be operated continuously to yield high purity quartz powder at a low cost. Thus, the process is industrially advantageous.

Abstract: A corona source suitable for use in vehicle ignition systems uses a conductive coil (4) that receives an RF input (8) at one end and has a corona discharge site (10) at the other end, with a reference electrode (2) capacitively coupled to the coil. The pitch and the length of the coil are selected to produce a corona discharge in response to an RF input signal at a predetermined frequency and voltage, through quarter wavelength resonation. The new resonant coil can be used to remediate fluid-borne wastes by initiating and sustaining RF corona discharges within the fluid. The pulses used to initiate teh corona discharge preferably have alternating positive and negative components, with high initial voltages on the positive components to initiate discharge, followed by lower positive voltage levels to sustain the discharge. Unipolar pulses, preferably with progressively decreasing voltages levels, can also be used.
