Abstract: A tubular sand screen (42) is made in one piece entirely of powdered metal slivers (42A) which are molded and sintered to form a metallurgically integral rigid tubular structure. Aggregate metal particles, for example, stainless steel slivers, are bonded together by interatomic diffusion as a result of sintering the compacted slivers under high temperature and pressure conditions. The sintered metal sand screen performs the function of a conventional prepack assembly as well as the screen function. According to one aspect of the invention, the sintered metal screen is subjected to electropolishing to yield an effective porosity of 40-60 mesh, with pores (42B) having an average pore size of 150 microns. Most of the surface irregularities are removed by electropolishing, and very few nucleation sites remain where sand fines in the size range of 74 microns-100 microns can become captured or otherwise lodged to cause plugging of the screen.

Abstract: The invention relates to an appliance for wrapping a round bale of hay, half-hay or straw with a plastic foil. The appliance has a frame 6 and a wrapping table 31, attached to the latter, for receiving a round bale to be wrapped. The frame can be mounted on a round-bale press 21. The round bale to be wrapped is fed via a rolling grid 9 to a loading bar 11. For transferring the round bale onto the wrapping table 31, the latter is pivoted in the direction of the loading bar 11. For the transfer, the loading bar 11 and wrapping table 31 are pivoted until the wrapping table 31 is in the horizontal wrapping position. For unloading the ready-wrapped round bale, the wrapping table 31 is tilted rearwards, that is to say away from the loading bar 11. This design leads to a shorter construction and to an improved transfer of the round bale onto the wrapping table towards the wrapping position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A pressure relief panel assembly for protecting a building against over-pressure caused by explosion. The assembly has a panel (28) pivotally connected to a frame (30) and held by a calibrated magnet (36) and striker (40) set which releases when a predetermined over-pressure occurs. A cable restraint attached to a shock absorber (132), or a linkage of two arms (60, 62) attached to a shock absorber (132), limits the extent to which the panel (28) can blow open. A spring (102) mounted on one of the arms (62) catches the other arm (60) when the panel has blown open, preventing the panels from reclosing and thereby preventing implosion damage to the building. Alternatively, or additionally, the panel, after opening, may be held partly open by a stop bar (80) which pivots to prevent the panel from fully closing, to prevent implosion damage to the building after the explosion. <IMAGE>

La barre de plasma (80a-d) est destinée à amorcer un plasma pour empêcher que les agents contaminants adsorbés par voie chimique n'affectent gravement la surface de la première des deux couches déposées de la paire, améliorant ainsi la tension en circuit ouvert de la cellule solaire. De même, la barre de plasma (80a-d) peut également être placée entre les paires de couches en matériau à base d'alliage au silicium amorphe qui se combinent pour former la jonction semi-conductrice mineure de la cellule solaire. Enfin, une barre de plasma (80a-d) peut être disposée entre la face d'une couche à base d'oxyde et la face d'un rétro-réflecteur contiguë à ladite couche, afin de réduire la contamination par l'oxygène du matériau en alliage au silicium déposé sur le réflecteur.

Abstract: Fil de dérivation cardiaque temporaire permettant d'établir un contact électrique entre un tissu organique et un générateur d'impulsions. Le fil de dérivation comprend un conduteur souple muni d'une extrémité proximale et d'une extrémité distale. L'extrémité proximale du conducteur est reliée au générateur d'impulsions. Une électrode connectée à l'extrémité distale du conducteur permet d'établir un contact électrique avec le tissu organique. Un serpentin hélicoïdal est fixé à l'électrode et oppose une résistance en friction au mouvement du fil de dérivation par rapport au tissu organique. Le serpentin présente une section transversale généralement rectangulaire destinée à lui donner une forme globale plate, de façon à améliorer son positionnement à l'intérieur du tissu myocardique, ce qui permet de se passer d'accessoires auxiliaires tels que les disques en caoutchouc au silicium et de réduire la taille de la dérivation et de la rendre utilisable pour les applications auriculaires et pédiatriques.

Date Apr. 15, 1993.The method for detecting the sulfidoleukotrienes sLT of the group LTC4, LTD4 and LTE4 by a single immunoenzymatic ELISA assay is based on the interaction between one or several monoclonal anti-sLT antibodies and a sLT conjugated to a revealing enzyme. A biological sample, wherein a content of sLT is assumed, is contacted with a monoclonal anti-sLT antibody bound to a carrier. After the sLTs present in the sample are bound to the said antibody, a conjugate of a sLT with a revealing enzyme is added to the charged carrier. Finally the amount of the conjugate bound to the carrier is evaluated, which amount is in an inverse correlation with the sLT bound to the carrier. The method is useful for in vitro-tests for the diagnosis of inflammatory diseases, as rheumatic diseases, immuno deficiencies, allergies or pseudo-allergies. With a priming of the biological samples with cytokines, e.g. with IL3, IL5 or GM-CSF as priming agents, the sensitivity of the method can be increased.
