Abstract: The portable household deep fryer of the present invention includes a housing (18), an oil pan(14) received therein, a heater (16), and at least two frying baskets (12). By employing multiple baskets, a home user can separately cook two different foods at the same time - a capability previously only existing in large non-portable deep fryers found in restaurants and other establishments. The oil pan (14) is preferably removable from the housing. Also, the deep fryer has a lid that can be closed over the oil pan and baskets. A gasket (58) can be employed to create a seal between the lid and the oil pan to prevent oil vapor escape to other areas of the deep fryer. The oil pan is preferably spaced and insulated from the lid and housing walls. The oil pan can be supported by a number of heat insulative mounts vertically positioning the oil pan within the housing and received within seats in the housing to also horizontally position the oil pan. By spacing and insulating the oil pan from the housing and lid, operating temperatures of the housing and lid can be maintained under 150 DEG C, permitting use of less expensive lower-temperature thermoplastic materials for the housing and lid. The deep fryer also preferably employs a control module (24) housing the deep fryer controls. The control module is preferably detachable from the deep fryer to permit easier and faster cleaning of the deep fryer, and provides improved protection for the controls against heat and oil vapor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention concerns chromatic dispersion and chromatic dispersion slope compensation in optical fibre transmission systems. It consists in using for chromatic dispersion compensation in the transmission fibre (4i) dispersion compensation fibre (12) and a plurality of Bragg gratings (15, 16, 17). Each Bragg grating has a bandwidth more than 25 nm, so as to enable the use of the system on widebands. Moreover, the Bragg grating compensates less than 250 ps/nm in absolute value, so that it is easy to produce in spite of the broadband. The invention is in particular applicable to very high rate systems (above 40 Gbits/s for each channel) with useful band between 1250 and 1650 nm.

Abstract: A transducer for measuring the relative velocity of movement of a body in a liquid or gaseous medium employs no reciprocating parts and functions by sensing the force applied to a diaphragm (6) die to its movement through the medium or the movement of the medium towards the diaphragm. The speed transducer makes use of a Hall effect solid state device (7) that produces an output when a magnetic field is applied to either of its surfaces. The level of the output voltage is proportional to the velocity of movement in the positive direction, i.e. when the force acts on diaphragm (6) in (FIG. 1). Since the transducer takes into account differential forces, an unwanted common force acting on both diaphragms simultaneously will have no effect on the measured speed. The tubular body (1) in which the Hall effect device is located may be made from any non-magnetic material suitable for the environment in which the transducer will be used.

Abstract: In a method of reducing bacterial growth in the water mixer (1) and an affiliated so-called consumer conduit (2), the supply conduits (5; 6) for hot and cold water are caused to communicate with one another via a short circuiting conduit (10). Upon termination of a water-consuming occasion, e.g. showering, an impulse is delivered for closing, for instance, the hot water conduit (6) via solenoid valve and therewith flush the mixer and consumer supply conduit with cold water, partly through a standard path and partly via the short circuiting conduit (10) and up to the end of the hot water conduit (6) proximal to the mixer. The flushing process is stopped when it can be certain that the risk of bacterial growth no longer exists, but can be repeated in response to an impulse from a sensor element. Alternatively, flushing with hot water can be effected through the medium of a mirror-image arrangement. Bactericidal substance can be delivered from a container (25) concurrently with the flushing process. The invention also relates to an arrangement for carrying out the method.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des boîtes de gel en plaquette, à parois parallèles (cassettes de gel en plaquette), utilisées dans l'électrophorèse de gel en plaquette verticale. Les boîtes sont fixées à un cadre (14) afin de former une chambre destinée à une solution tampon supérieure, la fixation comprenant une paire de pinces (16, 17) qui compriment les cassettes (12, 13) contre le cadre. Les pinces sont de préférence montées pivotantes sur le cadre de manière à permettre à un utilisateur de faire facilement pivoter les pinces d'une position ouverte à une position fermée. Une caractéristique additionnelle est une tige saillant de chaque pince dans une position qui entraîne ladite tige à se déplacer vers le haut contre le fond de la cassette et qui pousse cette dernière vers le haut tandis que la pince se referme, ce qui est particulièrement utile pour des cassettes formées de parois de hauteur inégale où la paroi la plus petite se place sous un épaulement inversé sur un joint, qui établit un contact étanche contre les deux parois.

Abstract: An automated cartridge for use in an automated system for low dose radioisotope procedures is replaceable in the automated system and has a housing that contains a selectively positionable member having a plurality of radioisotope seeds preloaded in chambers defined in the positionable member. An aperture in the housing allows an elongated member to selectively eject radioisotope seeds from chambers in the positionable member when a given chamber is aligned with the aperture. A mechanism in the cartridge automatically positions the selectively positionable member in alignment with the aperture. Preferably, a feedback mechanism generates a positional feedback signal of a position of the chambers of the positionable member relative to the aperture.
