Abstract: A process for reforming gasoline boiling range naphtha stream using a reforming process unit comprised of two independent process units, each of which are operated in two stages. The first stage is operated in a fixed-bed mode and is comprised of a plurality of serially connected fixed bed reactors (R1a to R3a and R1b to R3b), and the second stage is operated in moving bed reactors (4a and 4b) in a moving bed continuous catalyst regeneration mode. A hydrogen-rich stream is separated in separation zones (S1 and S2) and is recycled through both stages for each process unit and the moving reforming zones share a common regeneration zone (CR).

Abstract: A small pass machining apparatus which is fitted to the distal end of a wrist of a robot and is operated independently of a robot main body. First and second driving units (M1, M2) are fixed to a base (8) with their output shafts in parallel with each other. First and second rotary arms (11, 12) are fitted to output shafts (15, 16) of reduction gears (D1, D2) directly coupled to these driving units (M1, M2) and rotate on a plane orthogonally crossing the output shafts. These rotary arms (11, 12) and links (13, 14) connecting these rotary arms constitute a link mechanism having five joints, for example. A tool (2) is fitted to this link mechanism and the rotating quantities of the first and second rotary arms (11, 12) are detected. In this way, the position of the coordinates of the tool (2) can be computed.

Abstract: The present invention provides a sterile packaging which considerably reduces the risk for contamination of a part which shall be in contact with an area on the patient's body, and which can be exposed to the risk of infection. More specifically, the invention consists of a single-use air cushion unit (6) for use with a femoral compressor (1). The latter consists of an arch (2) and connecting part (17) on the arch. The air cushion unit (6) consists of a base plate (7) and an inflatable air cushion (8) attached to the baseplate (7). The distinguishing feature of the invention is that a shielding element (4) in the form of a lid made of a flexible material and which can be removed using a tab (5), is fused along the periphery of the air cushion (8). In this way the sterile air cushion's (8) contact surface (A) is protected in a safe way from contamination.

Abstract: An oxygen scavenging composition or concentrate of a carrier, such as a polymer, which is permeable to both oxygen and water or water vapor and an oxygen scavenging compound of an organic compound or salt thereof dispersed relatively uniformly throughout the polymer in an amount effective to act as an oxygen scavenger. The oxygen scavenging compound may be an ascorbate compound or a polycarboxylic or salicylic acid chelate or complex of a transition metal or a salt thereof. The oxygen scavenging composition is activated for scavenging oxygen by contact with water or water vapor which permeates into or through the carrier. A catalyzing agent is included in an amount sufficient to increase the rate of oxygen scavenging by the ascorbate compound. The oxygen scavenging compound may be added to the composition in a dry state, and is inactive until activated by contact with water or water vapor.

Abstract: In a nozzle group control each of the admission sectors is equipped with nozzle groups, the passage area of which corresponds to the passage opening of the respective control valve connected upstream. It is advantageous if at least two admission sectors have different passage areas and the control valves (1) are actuated so that by varying their combination more valve points can be set with full valve opening than there are control valves (1) fitted. The object of the invention is to reduce the necessary technical cost of this. According to the invention at least two control valves (1) are incorporated in a control block (4) so that they can be actuated in series by way of a common valve drive (5). The valves are actuated so that at one of the possible valve points all control valves (1a, 1b) of a control block (4b) are opened together with a further control valve (1c) and at another valve point only one of the control valves (1a) of the same control block (4b) is opened together with the same further control valve (1c). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for producing a plastic pipe, and to a plastic pipe. Worn-out pipelines are often lined by plastic pipes which often have a memory property such that they expand on heating. According to the invention, this memory property is achieved by causing a cross-linking reaction to occur in plastic material (4) in pipe forming means (1), and then passing the plastic pipe, while still hot, into a contraction mould (5). When the pipe (16) is still in a plastic state, it can be corrugated, if desired, in a corrugator (8) positioned after the constriction mould (5). The pipe (16) may be surrounded by a hose-like fabric (17). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An ultra-wideband (UWB) receiver utilizes a strobed input line with a sampler connected to an amplifier. In a differential configuration, +/-UWB inputs are connected to separate antennas or to two halves of a dipole antenna. The two input lines include samplers which are commonly strobed by a gating pulse with a very low duty cycle. In a single ended configuration, only a single strobed input line and sampler is utilized. The samplers integrate, or average, up to 10,000 pulses to achieve high sensitivity and good rejection of uncorrelated signals.

Abstract: Insect pests can be controlled by treating the pests or their loci with a combination of recombinant virus and organic insecticide. The recombinant virus preferably is a baculovirus. Combinations of recombinant baculovirus with chemical insecticides provide a dose-response in pests, such as insects, that is greater than additive. Preferred treatments of the invention are uses of recombinant baculoviruses that express a foreign protein or toxin, with pyrethroid insecticides. Treatments against pyrethroid resistant pests are especially useful.
