Abstract: To manufacture electrical circuit bases with extremely fine conducting paths, laminates without metal foil coverings are used as the initial materials; to produce the holes, a temporary metal layer is applied to the laminate surfaces, that metal layer is structured and etched and removed from the laminate surfaces once the holes have been etched in the laminate. A foundation metal layer is then deposited on the laminate surfaces, including the hole walls, to create the conducting paths; this is done by the glow discharge decomposition of volatile metal compounds. Further metal layers are applied to those layers without current and/or electrolytically. The metal layers are structured using photomask techniques.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de détermination de la richesse optimale d'un mélange air/carburant alimentant un moteur à combustion interne. Ce moteur comporte notamment un régulateur de vitesse afin de maintenir le moteur à une vitesse de rotation constante. Le procédé consiste à alimenter en mélange initial air/carburant le moteur et à réguler la vitesse de rotation du moteur, en agissant sur la position du papillon. Le procédé selon l'invention consiste en outre à: provoquer une pluralité de sauts de richesse dans le mélange alimentant le moteur; mesurer les variations de la position du papillon correspondantes à chacun des sauts de richesse; en déduire, lorsque les variations de position du papillon sont inférieures à un seuil, que le mélange est à la richesse optimale et, lorsque les variations de position de papillon sont supérieures à ce seuil, que la richesse du mélange doit être modifiée, et effectuer le cas échéant une correction de la richesse du mélange initial alimentant le moteur en tenant compte de l'amplitude des variations de position papillon mesurées. La présente invention vise plus particulièrement les moteurs utilisés dans les tondeuses à gazon, les groupes électrogènes, etc.

Abstract: Immunoapheresis treatment for cardiomyopathy comprises passing the patient's plasma over a column having coupled thereto a specific ligand for human immunoglobulin, thereby removing a significant portion of the immunoglobulin from the patient's plasma, and then reinfusing the plasma to the patient. The invention is the use of a specific ligand for human immunoglobulin in the manufacture of a column having the ligand coupled thereto, the column being useful for immunoapheresis treatment of a patient with cardiomyopathy. The specific ligand binds, and thereby removes, human autoantibodies which are harmful to cardiac tissue such as antibodies against beta<SUB>1</SUB>-adrenergic receptors, ADP-ATP carriers, alpha and beta myosin heavy chains, and adenine nucleotide translocators. Immunoapheresis treatment using the column results in improvement of hemodynamic parameters such as mean arterial pressure, mean pulmonary pressure, pumonary capillary wedge pressure, right atrial pressure, cardiac output, cariac index, stroke volume index, and systemic vascular resistance.

Abstract: The subject matter of the invention is a power feed box for supplying electrical power to busbars in an electrical distribution system, with several contact units (26) arranged in a housing (20) and made from an electrically conducting material. The contact unit (26) is provided, in order to allow electrical connection of a supply cable (54) to a free end of a corresponding busbar (4), with a cable recipient (36) and a first contact element. The contact unit (26) is provided with a second contact element to allow electrical connection of the supply cable (54) to a free end of a second busbar of the same phase and connected to the first busbar (4). The cable recipient (36) is thus electrically connected to the adjacent free ends of two identical-phase busbars (4). A power feed box for supplying electrical energy to busbars in an electrical distribution system and capable of being connected at virtually any point in the energy distribution system and subsequently moved to another point in the system is achieved by the co-operation between the first and second contact elements of the contact units (26) and first and second contact elements of the busbar (4) such that the power feed box (18) can be fitted over the busbars (4) at right angles to their longitudinal axes.

Abstract: The method allows automatic adaptation of terminals in the telephone network esp. coin or card operated telephones, to new or different block tariffs. The charging or debiting is controlled by the tariff information transmitted from a network node e.g. the 16 kHz pulse with analogue circuits and the value information per tariff unit with ISDN systems. Each input or dialled telephone number is monitored by the telephone to determine if it relates to a number with block tariff charging. The first time it is determined that the number is a block tariff number the telephone does not break the connection because of too little credit. Data on the connection, namely the telephone number and the number of tariff pulses in the block are stored in a memory in the terminal. From the number of tariff pulses a special treatment is set for this telephone number.

Abstract: The present invention describes a novel method for the solid phase synthesis of polyamides containing imidazole and pyrrole carboxamides. The polyamides are prepared on a solid support from aromatic carboxylic acids and aromatic amines with high stepwise coupling yields (>99%), providing milligram quantities of highly pure polyamides. The present invention also describes the synthesis of analogs of the natural products Netropsin and Distamycin A, two antiviral antibiotics. The present invention also describes a novel method for the solid phase synthesis of imidazole and pyrrole carboxamide polyamide-oligonucleotide conjugates. This methodology will greatly increase both the complexity and quantity of minor-groove binding polyamides and minor-groove binding polyamide-oligonucleotide conjugates which can be synthesized and tested.
