Abstract: Safety system for vehicles, applicable to transmitting information from a vehicle confronted with emergency conditions to a control centre, in such a way that the latter is able to locate the position of the said vehicle and to take the appropriate decisions. The system makes use of a device which sends/receives digital messages to or from a control centre via the GSM communications system. The said messages contain information relating to the position of the vehicle and are generated in response to a message coming from the control centre or by activation of alarm means which are provided in the vehicle. The control centre thus has available the relevant information on the vehicles and on the geographical area covered by the system and can process it jointly with the information transmitted to the vehicle and/or received therefrom. The interchange of information between the control centre and the vehicle or vehicles takes place in the form of short data messages through the short message service of the GSM network, with the intervention of a service centre of the said network for storing and distributing the said short messages. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a regenerative, rotating heat exchanger of the kind having a cylindrical part containing regenerative mass and sector plates (6) separating media flows, which sector plates have outer ends provided with sliding shoes (25) displaceable perpendicular to the sector plates and lockable, and maintaining a predetermined clearance between the ends of the sector plates (6) and an edge flange (12) or similar member of the cylindrical part against which edge flange (12) the sliding shoes (25) are arranged to slide. The sliding shoes (25) have wearing surfaces made of carbon or graphite and can be screwed by a screwing mechanism (51, 52) forward some mm at a time in correspondence to the abrasion. According to the invention an essential reduction of the wearing velocity is obtained due to the fact that each sliding shoe is provided with a guiding means (23, 29) which at the forward displacement of the sliding shoe (25) prevents its turning thereby maintaining a constant abrasion pattern.

Abstract: A process for resolving racemic alkyl 1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylates useful as intermediates in the synthesis of optically pure pharmaceutical compounds such as (S)-doxazosin is disclosed. The process utilizes a microbial enzyme derived from Serratia marcescens to catalyze the enantioselective hydrolysis of the alkyl (S)-1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylate enantiomer of the racemic mixture to its corresponding carboxylic acid at a faster rate than the R-enantiomer. An enantiomerically pure S-configured carboxylic acid is thereby formed for subsequent pharmaceutical synthesis. The nonhydrolyzed alkyl (R)-1,4-benzodioxan-2-carboxylate enantiomer can also be isolated and racemized, and the enzymatic hydrolysis reaction repeated.
