Patent EP-1207137-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CIRINCIONE RONALD A
IPC: C03B17/04
Filed: 2001-11-12
Abstract: Apparatus for delivering a cased glass stream having an inner core glass
surrounded by an outer casing glass includes a first or upper orifice ring (24) having at least one
orifice (22) for receiving core glass, and a second or lower orifice ring (26) secured beneath the
first orifice ring and having a second orifice (28) aligned with each first orifice. A chamber (30)
for receiving casing glass is formed between the first and second orifice rings surrounding the
second orifice. A bushing (58) is received in an opening in the second orifice ring to form each
second orifice in the second orifice ring. The bushing has a first radially extending flange (62)
supported on an upper surface (52) of the second orifice ring and a bushing end spaced upwardly
from the first flange for admitting casing glass from the chamber to the second orifice. The first
flange thus effectively spaces the bushing end above the surface of the second orifice ring,
eliminating any need for the ceramic pedestal that can erode due to casing glass flow along the
surface of the second orifice ring. The flange remains in firm facing abutment with the second
orifice ring surface, reducing leakage of casing glass between the bushing and the opposing
surface of the second orifice ring.

Abstract: In a data transmit/receive method for plurality of
devices connected by a 1394 bus, a receiving device obtains
a device-specific number of a transmitting device when
starting to receive data. When a bus reset occurs, the
receiving device again obtains the device-specific number
from the transmitting device, and checks whether the
device-specific numbers before and after the bus reset
match. If the device-specific numbers differ, the
receiving device obtains the device-specific number from
all devices connected to the bus. If a device with the
same device-specific numbers as prior to the bus reset is
present among the obtained device-specific numbers, the
channel number of the bus used for the transmitting of data
is determined, and the receiving device starts receiving
with that channel number. Then device authentication with
the transmitting device is carried out, and key information
for solving the encryption is obtained.

The median value d50 of the fiber diameter of the fibers of the covering layer is about 50-100% greater than that of the fibers of the base layer, producing a reinforced three-dimensional supporting framework in the covering layer increasing the plug passage strength.  An Independent claim is also included for a method for manufacturing the above insulating plate. Preferred Features: The median value d50 of the fiber diameter of the covering layer is 6-13, preferably 7-10, especially about 8  mu m.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de balayage optique petit et compact caractérisé par des exigences quant à la petite dimension d'ouverture, un large champ de regard et une dispersion chromatique minimale. Ces nouveaux système et procédé de balayage permettent d'orienter un faisceau optique dans une bande spectrale large et dans un large champ de regard. Ce système comprend un nouveau dispositif qui reçoit un front d'onde d'entrée d'énergie électromagnétique le long d'un premier axe et le réfracte comme un front d'onde de sortie le long d'un second axe. En outre, ce système présente une forme unique de réseau à cristaux liquides que l'on peut manipuler électriquement pour modifier l'indice de réfraction effectif de chaque pixel. L'indice de réfraction de ce dispositif varie en réaction à une tension appliquée. Cette tension est fournie par un microprocesseur et/ou un système de servocommande. En modifiant l'indice de réfraction, on peut orienter le front à phase incidente selon un certain angle par rapport au premier axe, et de ce fait le manipuler selon un motif variable d'indices induit dans le réseau. On oriente ainsi le faisceau de sortie en réponse à la tension appliquée.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a process for producing a polypropylene foam by mixing a high melt strength polypropylene and a blowing agent to form a melt mixture, reducing the temperature of the melt mixture at the exit of the apparatus to an exit temperature that is no more than 30 DEG C above the melt temperature of the neat polypropylene while maintaining the melt mixture at a pressure sufficient to prevent foaming; passing the mixture through said exit shaping orifice and exposing the mixture to atmospheric pressure, whereby the blowing agent expands causing cell formation resulting in foam formation, and orienting said foam. The foam is useful as tape backings, thermal and acoustical insulation and as a diffuse reflector for use in optical applications such as computer displays.

Abstract: The sialic acid component of a sialic acid unit-containing cell surface marker characteristic of cancerous mammalian cells is modified, so that cells normally expressing such a marker express instead a modified sialic acid unit-containing cell surface marker which is strongly immunogenic. For example, the present invention enables, in a portion of patient cells which regularly express GD3 (i.e. various types of cancer cells), the expression of a highly immunogenic surface antigen namely, GD3 in which the sialic acid residues are modified. The modification is suitably N-acylation of a precursor of the sialic acid, so that the N-acylated precursor becomes chemically incorporated in the sialic acid during its intracellular biochemical synthesis. Antibodies specific for the modified antigen, which can be induced using a conjugate of a suitable portion of the modified sialic acid unit-containing marker and a carrier, can then be used to eliminate cells which express the modified GD3. Vaccines can be prepared utilizing conjugates of the modified sialic acid-containing marker, or utilizing antibodies produced in response to exposure of a suitable subject to the modified sialic acid-containing marker, for managing cancer conditions which involve cancer cells characterized, at least in part, by expression of modified sialic acid unit-containing marker.
