Patent EP-1184609-A2 (EP)
Inventor: RINALDO JOHN M
IPC: F16J15/00
Filed: 2001-08-21
Abstract: A non-contacting seal includes a stationary tooth (18)
that radially overlaps a tooth (16) on a rotatable shaft
(10), with the sealing action resulting from controlled
clearance both radially between the stationary tooth (18) and
the shaft (10), and axially between the stationary tooth (18)
and the shaft (10). The seal may also be in the form of a
stationary tooth (14) that is approximately in the same
radial plane as a tooth (12) on a rotatable shaft (10), with
the sealing action resulting from both a controlled clearance
gap between the two teeth (14, 12) and from the momentum of
liquid travelling outwards from the rotating tooth (12)
making it difficult for the liquid to turn to go axially
through the gap (15) between the rotating tooth (12) and the
stationary tooth (14). The seal may also comprise a
combination of the two seals described above.

Abstract: The supply voltage to a driving circuit (100) and LCD (200)
generated by a power supply circuit (350) is controlled to be
periodically turned on and off during a power save mode, using a
timer circuit (260) or timer such as a counting circuit. In this
manner, during the power save mode, the power consumption can be
reduced by turning off the power supply, and, at the same time,
the display can be periodically shown without any further manipulation.
By suspending the output of the gate selection signals to the display
panels before the control to turn off the power supply, the display
immediately before the turn off operation can be maintained even
after the power supply is turned off.

Abstract: A reagent composition adapted to be coated onto a support surface in order to provide that surface with a high density of reactive groups. The surface, thus coated, can be used for any suitable purpose, and is particularly well suited for use as a solid phase synthesis support surface. The synthesis support surface, in turn, can be used in repetitive and combinatorial syntheses such as the synthesis of polynucleotides, polypeptides and polysaccharides. The polymeric coating can be used to provide increased effective surface area, particularly in situations in which the effective area of the support surface is itself limited, as on the surface of a silicon wafer. In so doing, the polymeric coating provides an optimal combination of such properties as reactive density and surface area or volume.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for transferring information over a communications link includes transmitting information at a first power level, monitoring for correct reception of the transmitted information and transmitting further information at a second, power level other than that used for the original transmission if correct reception did not occur. The further information allows the content of the originally transmitted information to be established and in one embodiment constitutes a retransmission of the originally transmitted information. By retransmitting at a different power level the probability of correct reception may be enhanced, especially when the communications link is wireless. The first and second transmission power levels are governed using closed loop power control such that transmission power level is controlled to achieve a required quality of reception parameter at the receiving end of the link. In one arrangement the quality or reception parameter is the signal-to-interference ratio.
