Patent EP-0252128-B1 (EP)
IPC: G01N21/75
Filed: 1986-12-22
Granted: 1993-08-11
Abstract: The peak verify time for kinetic nephelometric measurements of reactions between antigens and antibodies is adjusted as a function of the magnitude of the peak rate in order to reduce the time required for peak verification. The scatter signal is zeroed following the end of the peak verification period and the reaction is tested for antigen excess. Reactions during the antigen excess check having rates that exceed a threshold value are accepted as being valid, and no additional measurements are made for such samples. Reactions during the antigen excess check having rates that are less than the threshold value are rejected as being in antigen excess. Samples found to be in antigen excess are diluted and then reanalyzed.

Abstract: A dielectric block filter (501) which may be mounted on a printed circuit board or other substrate as a single component. The dielectric filter utilizes metallized hole foreshortened resonators (529-535) in the dielectric block (501), which employs capacitive coupling between resonators controlled in part by an electrode strip (553-558) coupled to the conductive material covering the majority of the dielectric block (501) surface. Input and output coupling is accomplished via terminals (505-507) asymmetrically arranged in a mounting bracket (503). Mounting tabs (515-523) on the bracket (503) opposite a recessed area holding the dielectric block secure the filter (501) to the circuit board and provide ground connection for the filter. Two or more filters (501) may be arranged on the circuit board to form a duplexer.

Abstract: In a steerable vehicle with two or more axles and with at least rear axle drive, the conventional brake system consisting of service brake device and parking brake device, possibly complemented by an antiblocking system and an antislip control, is assigned an auxiliary brake device for a one-sided braking of the vehicle, the said auxiliary braking device operating in a steering angle-dependent manner. This auxiliary braking device can be actuated as required and, if a predetermined minimum steering angle of the steered wheels is undershot at a driving speed below a specific value, a one-sided braking of the wheel or wheels on the inside of the bend, at least of the driven rear axle or axles of the vehicle, is effected by selective provision of brake pressure. In this way, it is ensured that tight bends are passed through in a track-holding manner following the steering angle to the greatest extent without the vehicle being forced over to the outside of the bend. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Procédé et appareil de production d'une mèche de torons comprenant une multitude de torons avec des boucles s'étendant axialement et emmêlés à des boucles s'étendant trans-axialement. La mèche de la présente invention est fabriquée par un procédé qui utilise une roue (32) à doigts pour former des boucles s'étendant axialement en torons et une fileuse (36) placée en aval de la roue à doigts. Les torons bouclés passent de la roue à doigts à travers d'un passage relativement non restreint dans la fileuse qui confère aux torons bouclés une torsion, puis au travers d'un orifice de sortie relativement restreint (42) situé en aval de la sortie de la fileuse. Un puddlage des torons bouclés se produit dans la fileuse à proximité de sa sortie, ce puddlage étant dû à la longueur axiale des boucles dans les torons et au rétrécissement de l'orifice de sortie de la fileuse, et ce puddlage des torons dans la fileuse, associé à leur filature, se traduit par la formation de boucles trans-axiales dans les boucles axiales des torons.

Le toit ouvrant comporte au moins une partie de couverture (7) pouvant s'ouvrir et se fermer et un bâti (4) en plusieurs pièces se bloquant directement sur la couverture de toit (2) et possédant un cadre extérieur (5) d'une seule pièce entourant l'ouverture de toit (3) et se posant par en-haut sur la couverture de toit (2), un cadre intérieur (9) d'une seule pièce entourant l'ouverture de toit (3) et se fixant sur le cadre extérieur (5) dans une région à l'intérieur de l'ouverture de toit (3) et pouvant être supporté par en-bas directement sur l'ouverture de toit (2), ainsi que, de préférence, un profilé de supportage (19; 20; 20B; 21) supportant par en-bas l'habillage de plafond solide (10). Lors du montage d'un toit ouvrant de ce type, l'ouverture de toit (3) dans la couverture de toit (2) peut être aussi grande que l'ouverture dans l'habillage de plafond solide située sous ladite couverture. L'habillage de plafond n'a donc pas besoin d'être recoupé, par rapport à cette ouverture de toit, sur au moins une mais de préférence sur plusieurs arêtes d'ouverture, comme c'était le cas par le passé si on voulait bloquer la couverture de toit directement entre le cadre extérieur et le cadre intérieur. On y parvient grâce au fait que la région (a) du cadre intérieur (9) s'engageant sous la couverture de toit (2) se présente sous la forme d'un rebord (rebord de serrage 18) insérable entre la couvertrue de toit et l'habillage de plafond solide (10).

Title: Method and apparatus for determining the tangent or the line of penetration between a main body and at least one auxiliary body for flame cutting
IPC: B23K7/00
Filed: 1989-05-26
Granted: 1992-11-25
Abstract: To determine the tangent or the line of penetration between a main body and an auxiliary body for flame cutting which touch or penetrate one another, first of all the mutual spatially fixed arrangement of the main body and the auxiliary body as well as, on both, in each case an area containing the common tangent or line of penetration are predetermined. The spatial contour of the two areas is then measured, and the measured values for the two contours are stored in a memory. Then, while maintaining the mutual spatial wall thickness of the main body and/or the auxiliary body, the common tangential trace or penetration trace closed upon itself is calculated from the stored values for the two areas, and the common tangent or line of penetration is calculated with the calculated values for the common tangential or penetration trace and the predetermined cross-section of the weld, and the flame cutting is controlled with these calculated values. <IMAGE>

Title: Method of quickly abandoning large caverns excavated in a saline formation
IPC: B65G5/00
Filed: 1989-05-26
Granted: 1992-12-23
Abstract: At the end of their leaching, the rock salt cavities 4 contain a large quantity of brine 8 whose temperature is lower than that of the enclosing mass of earth 2. It is consequently not possible to seal them quickly because of the progressive expansion of the brine as it warms up. The process of the present invention makes it possible to shorten the period between the end of exploitation of the cavity and its abandonment from about thirty years to approximately two years. 
<??>It consists in injecting into the cavity 4 quantities of a mixture 12 which is denser than the brine 8 and capable of setting, while equivalent quantities of brine 8 are discharged at the surface to keep the cavity 4 open at the end of the complete filling of the cavity 4 with the mixture 12, while the creep of the rock salt 2 closes the shrinkage voids which have appeared during the setting of the mixture 12, and in then sealing the cavity 4. It is advantageous, for this purpose, to employ chiefly wastes to constitute the mixture 12.
