Abstract: A method of enhancing the appearance of a polished surface of an artifact is provided in which the artifact is formed from a non-ferrous alloy, in particular, but not exclusively, a precious metal alloy, chosen to exhibit a martensitic and a parent phase structure. The surface, or relevant part thereof, is polished in one of the phases, usually the parent phase, followed by heat treatment to effect a phase transformation, generally to the martensitic phase. This phase change causes a visible surface effect to the polished surface which may be described as a spangle effect.

Abstract: A method of forming a diffusion bonded joint during superplastic forming of a hollow metal structure (43) from sheet material (15, 16, 17, 18) using a two-piece die (1) having opposed clenching faces (9, 10) disposed along a split line (2) thereof, the structure 43 being formed with a joint at the split line, the method including placing the sheets (15, 16, 17, 18) between the faces (9, 10) clenching the sheets with a pressure sufficient to locate same during superplastic forming whilst being insufficient to deform the metal and prevent superplastic flow in the sheets between the clenching faces (9, 10), heating the sheets to a superplastic forming temperature and applying a gas pressure between the sheets to commence superplastic forming, when superplastic metal flow between the clenching faces substantially ceases upset forging metal from between the faces towards the interior of the die to increase wall thickness at the joint upon trimming off a flange formed by that part of the sheets trapped between the clenching faces. A die to carry out the above method, a die and sheet assembly and a structure manufactured according to the method are also provided.

Abstract: A decoded counter employing a shift register and a zero-detect circuit has the ability of returning to a correct state within a limited number of clock cycles if, by accidental reasons, an invalid state is assumed by the counter. One of the flip-flops is provided with synchronous set while all the other flip-flops of the shift register are provided with synchronous reset. The output of the last flip-flop of the register drives a single set-reset line common to all the flip-flops and the pull-up line of the zero-detect circuit is connected to the input of the first flip-flop of the register. Optionally, one of the flip-flops may be provided with asynchronous set and the others with an asynchronous reset, for initializing the counter in a certain state through a single clear-load line.

Abstract: A device for mixing and/or kneading dough comprises a frame (1) into which a container for the dough to be processed can be introduced by means of a truck (22). One introduced into the frame, the container (17) can be raised by means of a lifting device (23) into a position in which at least one tool (15) protrudes into it from above. Each tool (15) is located eccentrically in relation to the axis (42) of the container and mounted on a tool carrier (4) which can be rotated about the axis (42) under the action of a drive (51). In addition, another drive (50) is provided for the tools (15) which move in relation to the tool carrier (4). The latter is mounted at its circumference rotatably on a collar (2) of the frame and acts as a lid closing off the top opening of the container (17) in its raised position. A particularly intensive and even mixing of the dough in the container (17) is thereby achieved and the stress on the container (17) is reduced.

Abstract: Dans les soupapes à commande électromagnétique connues, le pointeau consiste en une partie induite tubulaire, une partie douille de soupape tubulaire et une partie obturateur de soupape. La partie induite est reliée à une extrémité de la partie douille de soupape au moyen d'une première soudure et la partie obturateur de soupape est reliée à l'autre extrémité de la partie douille de soupape au moyen d'une seconde soudure. Ce procédé de fabrication est relativement complexe et coûteux en raison des deux opérations de soudage qu'il implique. Dans le nouveau pointeau (58), un élément de commande (32) tubulaire consistant en une partie induite (36) et en une partie douille de soupape (38) est réalisé par moulage par injection, suivi d'un frittage, selon le procédé de moulage par injection de métal. Ensuite, l'élément de commande (32) est relié par une soudure (48) à une partie obturateur (46) de manière que le pointeau (58) soit de fabrication aisée et économique. Le pointeau présenté convient notamment aux soupapes d'injection de systèmes d'injection de carburant de moteurs à combustion interne.

Abstract: Une interface utilisateur de procédure ("IUP") simplifiée permettant de commander le fonctionnement d'un ordinateur (300) est définie en termes d'étapes ou de procédures nécessaires pour effectuer une opération donnée. L'IUP fonctionne comme une liste de contrôle graphique qui indique à l'utilisateur ce qu'il doit faire et commande ensuite l'opération nécessaire que l'on veut déclencher. L'IUP donne une représentation d'une tâche requise par l'utilisateur à l'aide d'icônes enchaînées en une série d'écrans hiérarchiques (50). Les icônes enchâinées (58, 60, 62) indiquent les étapes par lesquelles doit passer un utilisateur pour effectuer une tâche à l'aide de l'ordinateur. Les écrans hiérarchiques dans lesquels se trouvent les icônes fournissent un moyen de grouper logiquement les étapes de traitement correspondant à des tâches apparentées. Le concept de base est de simplifier l'utilisation de l'ordinateur en présentant uniquement la fonction nécessaire pour effectuer une tâche particulière à un moment donné.

Abstract: A description is given of a conductor bundle for electrical installations, especially for complete housing installations and installation networks for electrical energy supply and its control as well as for transmission of news, data and information. Using this, it is intended to make it possible to obtain a conductor bundle for installations which is easy to install and both provides energy supply and can be used for transmission of news, data and information. The same is achieved with the aid of two main strands which are connected to each other by means of a continuously extending and detachable bridge connector. This bridge connector has a notch running over the entire length and on both sides, for the possible splitting, and for the deliberate insertion of nails when nail fastening is being used. The special shaping of the periphery of the main strand jackets provides the advantage that the bridge connector runs approximately parallel to the support face of the connector bundle, which facilitates the cable fastening. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention provides a biologically active multimeric polypeptide molecule in which two or more monomeric subunits are linked together as a single polypeptide ("fusion multimer"). These fusion multimers are more easily and rapidly refolded than unfused multimers, because the reactions necessary to generate the biologically active multimeric form of the polypeptide proceed with first order, rather than second or higher order, reaction kinetics. Fusion multimers also eliminate the simultaneous formation of undesired polypeptide by-products during refolding. The fusion multimers of the present invention specifically include PDGF fusion dimers.
