IPC: G01N21/78
Filed: 2000-05-11
Abstract: The technologies disclosed by the present invention allow quantitative
measurement to be conducted accurately on the concentration of at least
one analyte contained in liquid sample, includes: a chromatographic strip (10)
with a plurality of reaction areas (6A, 6B) retaining a binding reagent to make
an specific reaction with the analytes, thereby making it possible for the
binding reagent to take on a coloration; and a coloration level measuring
means (11) to carry out quantitative measurement with a numerical expression
on the coloration level of at least two or more of reaction areas out of the
plurality of reaction areas. The coloration level measuring means has a capability
of conducting measurement of the extent of a coloration occurring as a
result of a reaction between the binding reagent and the analytes. The
measurement result is subjected to computation processing in a computation
processing device (12), thereby deriving by computation the concentration of
the analytes in a numerical expression.

Title: Brake force transmission mechanism for a brake booster
Inventor: SCHONLAU JUERGEN
IPC: B60T13/575
Filed: 2000-04-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a brake force transmission mechanism (1) for a brake booster. The mechanism comprises an elastic reaction member (7), an input element (4) to which an active area is assigned and an output element (6) to which an active area is assigned, and presents a first transmission ratio which is defined by a ratio of the active areas to each other, said areas being actively connected to the reaction member (7). The invention aims to give greater support to the driver of a motor vehicle when high brake forces are required. To this end the invention provides for means (10) which when a given pressure is detected in the reaction member (7) reduce the reaction force applied to the input element (4) by a defined extent. As a result the driver not only is given additional support but also, in response to his action, is able to utilize a part of the reaction force so as to be able to control the remaining braking process.

Abstract: A system for the controlled addition of detergent formulations and the like to a carbon dioxide cleaning apparatus comprises: (a) a high pressure wash vessel; (b) an auxiliary vessel; (c) a drain line connecting the auxiliary vessel to the wash vessel; (d) optionally but preferably, a separate vent line connecting the auxiliary vessel to the wash vessel; (e) a detergent reservoir; and (f) a detergent supply line connecting the detergent reservoir to the auxiliary vessel. An advantage of this apparatus is that, because the detergent formulation can be pumped into the auxiliary vessel in a predetermined aliquot or amount, which predetermined aliquot or amount can then be transferred into the wash vessel where it combines with the liquid carbon dioxide cleaning solution, the detergent formulation can be added to the cleaning solution in a more controlled or accurate manner. An alternate embodiment adapted for the addition of aqueous detergent formulations and the like to a carbon dioxide dry cleaning system under turbulent conditions comprises: (a) a high pressure wash vessel; (b) a filter; (c) a carbon dioxide cleaning solution drain line interconnecting the wash vessel to the filter; (d) a carbon dioxide cleaning solution supply line connecting the filter to the wash vessel; (e) a first high pressure pump (i.e., a pump that is capable of pumping liquid solutions comprising liquid carbon dioxide) operably connected to the drain line; (f) a detergent formulation reservoir; (g) a detergent formulation supply line connecting the reservoir to the carbon dioxide cleaning solution supply line; and (h) a second high pressure pump operably connected to the detergent formulation supply line for transferring detergent formulation from the detergent formulation reservoir into the carbon dioxide cleaning solution under turbulent conditions.

Title: Process for the formation of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes
Inventor: LICHTENHAN JOSEPH D
IPC: C07F7/08
Filed: 2000-08-03
Abstract: Three processes for the manufacture of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) which utilize the action of bases that are capable of either attacking silicon or any compound that can react with a protic solvent (e.g. ROH, H2O etc.) and generate hydroxide [OH]<->; alkoxide [RO]<->, etc. The first process utilizes such bases to effectively redistribute the silicon-oxygen frameworks in polymeric silsesquioxanes [RSiO1.5] INFINITY  where  INFINITY =1-1,000,000 or higher into POSS nanostructures of formulas [(RSiO1.5)n] SIGMA #, homoleptic, [(RXSiO1.5)n] SIGMA #, functionalized homoleptic, [(RSiO1.5)m(R'SiO1.5)n] SIGMA #, heteroleptic, and {(RSiO1.5)m(RXSiO1.0)n} SIGMA #, functionalized heteroleptic nanostructures. The second process utilizes base to aid in the formation of POSS nanostructures of formulas [(RSiO1.5)n] SIGMA #, homoleptic and [(RSiO1.5)m(R'SiO1.5)n] SIGMA #, heteroleptic and [(RSiO1.5)m(RXSiO1.0)n] SIGMA #, functionalized heteroleptic nanostructures from silanes RSiX3 and linear or cyclic silsesquioxanes of the formula RX2Si-(OSiRX)m-OSiRX2 where m=0-10, X=OH, Cl, Br, I, alkoxide OR, acetate OOCR, peroxide OOR, amine NR2, isocyanate NCO, and R. The third process utilizes base to selectively ring-open the silicon-oxygen-silicon (Si-O-Si) bonds in POSS structures to form POSS species with incompletely condensed nanostructures. These proceses also afford stereochemical control over X. The three processes result in new POSS species that can undergo additional chemical manipulations to ultimately be converted into POSS-species suitable for polymerization, grafting, or other desirable chemical reactions.

IPC: H02P1/16

Abstract: An electrical machine comprises a rotor without windings, a stator having an armature winding 24, 25 and a field winding 10 for generating a magnetomotive force in a direction extending transversely of the magnetomotive force generated by the armature winding. An electronic circuit 40 is provided for controlling the current in the armature winding 24, 25 such that periods in which a magnetomotive force in one direction is associated with a first current pulse alternate with periods in which a magnetomotive force in the opposite direction is associated with a second current pulse. A position sensor is provided for monitoring the rotational position of the rotor and for supplying output signals at a rate dependent on the speed of rotation of the rotor. Furthermore a control system supplies control signals to the circuit 40 to control the current in the armature winding 24, 25 in response to the output signals. The control system uses a control signal of extended duration at the beginning of the first current pulse on start-up of the motor from rest as compared with the duration of the control signals produced over the remainder of the first current pulse during acceleration of the rotor. Such an arrangement produces efficient starting from rest, and enables control of acceleration, no-load speed, loaded torque-speed characteristics of the machine to be achieved with simple on-off control of armature and field switching devices, so that the control circuitry can be produced at relatively low cost. Simplification of the control circuitry is further ensured by the fact that such control can be effected without current sensing.
