Title: 検出器の移動が簡単化されたｘ線分析装置
IPC: G01N23/207
Filed: 1996-04-17
Abstract: (57)【要約】
ローランド形状に基づく集束光学システムを用いるＸ線分析装置。この装置は、Ｘ線検出器（１４，１６）が固定位置を占める固定測定チャネルで動作するように構成される。分析結晶体（１２）（多層ミラー）の周期の機械的な公差及び拡がりを補償するため、結晶体を僅かに回動させる必要があり、その後分析すべきＸ線ビームは検出器（１４，１６）に完全に入射しない。本発明では、分析結晶体（１２）を、この結晶体の回動をローランド形状に基づく結晶体の変位に結合することにより再調整する。分析結晶体にたいする分析すべきＸ線の入射角が小さく、例えば３０°以下に維持される限り、検出器を変位させる必要がない。検査すべき別の波長選択も可能であり、この場合検出器を入射スリットを通る直線に沿って変位させるだけが単に必要となる。検出器の経路をローランンド形状に正確に追従させる機構を用いることなく上記直線的な変位のためのがいど容易に実現することができる。

Title: Multi-layer barrier liner with low permeability membranes
Inventor: ROBERTSON A M
IPC: E02D31/00
Filed: 1987-06-22
Abstract: A pressure barrier liner (38) has a plurality of low permeability membranes (42, 44) disposed one above the other. A region of relatively high permeability is encapsulated between each adjacent pair of membranes. Pressurizing means may be used to introduce (58) pressurized fluid such as air or water into a selected group of the high permeability regions (46) to pressurize them to a selected pressure or pressures, thereby ensuring that any flow through the membranes (42, 44) or through disruptions in the membranes will be from within the pressurized regions to the regions outside the membranes (42, 44) which encapsulate the pressurized regions, rather than from the fluid storage region above the membranes, through the membranes and into the region beneath the membranes which is to be protected by the liner. Alternatively, depressurizing means may be used to depressurize a selected group of the high permeability regions to a selected pressure or pressures thereby ensuring that any fluid flow through disruptions in the membranes (42, 44) is directed to and withdrawn by the depressurizing means, thus again preventing fluid escapement from the fluid containment region above the membranes, through the membranes and into the region beneath the membranes which is to be protected by the liner.

Title: The preparation of aromatic hydrocarbons in a chamber heated by radiant heating means with a variable heat flow
Inventor: RENARD PIERRE
IPC: C07C15/00
Filed: 1992-05-06
Abstract: A process is described for production of aromatic hydrocarbons from a charge of aliphatic hydrocarbons containing 2 to 12 carbon atoms, in an enclosure 1 comprising a plurality of pipes 3 which are filled with a catalyst and which are parallel and arranged in rows. A stage called reaction stage and a regeneration stage of the catalyst in the pipes of the enclosure are carried out. Heating of the pipes is produced by suitable radiant heating means 6, situated between two successive rows and arranged in sheets which are substantially perpendicular to the pipes. These sheets heat a first part of the pipes (feed side) with a heat flow greater than the mean heat flow of the heating means and a subsequent second part with a mean flow no greater than the mean heat flow, so that the isothermal condition (isothermicity) of the catalyst is substantially maintained, by virtue of suitable control means.

Date Apr. 1, 1993.A pilot-operated diaphragm valve adapted to deliver a compressed air pulse from its outlet includes a valve top and valve trigger sub-assembly that cooperate to cycle a flexible diaphragm of the valve toward and away from a diaphragm seat by application of an electric solenoid or external pneumatic pulse applied to the valve trigger. The valve top and trigger sub-assembly enclose a reciprocable hollow plunger that normally is held against a seat at its lower end by a reciprocable solid plunger supported for sliding movement above the hollow plunger in a sealed tube and biased by a spring into engagement with the hollow plunger. Activation of the solenoid or external pneumatic signal pulse drives the solid plunger out of engagement with the hollow plunger which in turn unseats producing low pressure above the diaphragm. The low pressure unseats the diaphragm allowing a high energy pulse of air to escape past the diaphragm through the outlet. Deactivation of the solenoid causes the solid plunger, hollow plunger, and diaphragm to return to their seated positions to stop the flow of air through the outlet.

Title: Methods for measurement and treatment predcated on the presence of advanced glycosylation endproducts in tobacco and its combustion byproducts
Inventor: CERAMI ANTHONY
IPC: A24B15/40
Filed: 1996-12-23
Abstract: ethods are disclosed for measuring the accumulation of advanced glycosylation endproducts (AGEs), and for lowering the accumulation of advanced glycosylation endproducts, which are predicated on the discovery that such AGEs and their precedent glycotoxins are present in tobacco and its byproducts. More particularly the methods focus on the observation that individuals who smoke or otherwise use tobacco have increased levels of AGEs relative to non-smoking individuals. The present methods relate to the measurement of AGE levels in both individuals and in tobacco and its byproduct, smoke, and to the treatment of such individuals with agents capable of reacting with glycosylation products to either avert or diminish the accretion of AGEs in the body. Methods are also disclosed for the evaluation of the tobacco products to determine their storage status and organoleptic capacity and potential, for the treatment of the ambient atmosphere to lower AGE levels, and for the treatment of the tobacco products and combustion byproducts to lower AGE levels therein. For example, air or other samples may be taken and evaluated by a dosimeter or like device, to determine whether AGE levels exceed normal, after which measures could be implemented to remediate the ambient condition. Likewise, filters and similar devices for removing AGEs from tobacco smoke are disclosed. All such methods and corresponding materials are contemplated and included.
