Inventor: HIGUCHI TOSHIRO - CHIGASAKIMIN
IPC: B03C7/04
Filed: 1991-04-16
Abstract: An electrostatic actuator comprising a first member (1) having plural strip-like electrodes (4) which are insulated from each other and arranged in a predetermined direction and at predetermined spaces, a second member (10) whose surface facing the surface of the first member is in contact with it and made of a resistive substance, and a controlling means (11) which changes the voltages applied to the respective strip-like electrodes. The controlling means applies a predetermined voltage pattern of pulse voltages to the strip-like electrodes and causes the first and second members to move relatively to each other. The resistive substance in the second member is so selected that the time constant which is determined mainly by the volume resistivity and the dielectric constant of the substance is the double of the time being necessary in order that at least one of the first and second member moves relatively by the distance equal to the length between the electrodes.

According to the invention the sleeve (28) is provided with two protective rings (29, 30) and is brought to be fixed by a first tool (9) so that the sleeve (28) is firmly clamped between two parallel side supports (10, 11) and centered by centering elements (24) of the side supports, whereby a first rotatable unit (36) is formed. The cable or line (2) is attached to said first unit (36) and the unit (36) is brought to rotate in a coiling machine (3) so that the cable or line is formed to said coil (1). When the cable or line has been cut, a protective casing (40) is brought to surround the coil ( 1) between the protective rings (29, 30), and a plurality of bands (41) are brought to surround the sleeve (28) from the inside thereof, the protective rings (29, 30), the protective casing (40) and the coil (1) enclosed within these parts, without engagement with the side supports (10, 11), after which the bands (41) are tightened and their ends joined in a strong joint to form said parcel (27). A system is also described for handling the cable or line which is prepared and enveloped in the manner described, as well as tools of the structure described above and cable or line parcels manufactured according to said method.

Abstract: Soil microorganisms are obtained that produce a hemicellulase which is particularly useful in increasing the available energy content of hemicellulosic foodstuffs. These microorganisms can be cultured per se or can be used as sources of genetic information with which to engineer other microorganisms to produce the enzyme. Thus, commercially useful quantities of native or recombinant hemicellulase can be produced with cultures consisting essentially of microorganisms that produce the enzyme. The hemicellulase can then be employed in a feed composition containing complex carbohydrates which the enzyme degrades, enhancing the nutritional value of the composition.
