Abstract: A nozzle is used to remove by means of suction dust and chips resulting from a drilling machine (13) in an industrial plant. The nozzle (20) has two opposite end portions (21, 22) communicating with one other: a first tubular portion (22) for connection to a suction tube (18), and a second tubular portion (21) with an intake opening (27). An outer flange (24) extends transversely from an intermediate position between the first tubular portion (22) and the second tubular portion (21). The intake opening (27) is directed in a lateral direction, parallel to the transverse direction of the flange (24). A magnetic element (25) is incorporated in the flange. The nozzle can be applied to a drilling template (10) having a plurality of cylindrical through-openings (11) in which respective bushings (12) made of ferromagnetic material are fixed. When the second tubular portion (21) is inserted through a cylindrical bushing (12), the magnetic element (25) acts on the bushing, opposing axial and rotational movements of the nozzle with respect to the template.

Abstract: The invention is in the field of molecular diagnostics. More in particular it provides marker genes for determining the immunotoxicity of compounds. A method according to the invention employs samples obtained from a cell exposed to a potentially immunotoxic compound and determines expression levels of a number of marker genes in order to distinguish between immunotoxic compounds and non-immunotoxic compounds. More in particular, the invention relates to an in  vitro  method for determining whether a compound is immunotoxic wherein the expression level of at least one marker gene is determined in a sample obtained from a nucleated cell exposed to the compound, wherein the at least one marker gene is selected from the group consisting of  ABCA1, CHAC1, CRIM1 and HMGCS1,  and wherein it is concluded that the compound is immunotoxic if the expression level of said at least one marker gene is below or above a predetermined reference value.

Abstract: An access node of a communication system is configured to control crosstalk between channels of the system. Vectoring circuitry in the access node estimates crosstalk between channels of the system, generates a compensation matrix based on the crosstalk estimates, and generates compensated signals based on the compensation matrix. The compensation matrix, which may be a precoder matrix or a postcoder matrix, is generated using a multiplicative update process in which a previous version of the compensation matrix comprising one or more non-zero off-diagonal elements is updated by at least one of pre-multiplying by a first auxiliary matrix and post-multiplying by a second auxiliary matrix, with a given one of the auxiliary matrices also comprising one or more non-zero off-diagonal elements. The compensated signals may be pre-compensated signals or post-compensated signals.

Title: Agencement et procédé de rotation de bois d'uvre

IPC: B27B31/06
Filed: 2012-01-10
Abstract: La présente invention porte sur un agencement et un procédé pour surveiller la progression de rotation de bois d'œuvre avant un banc de scie dans une scierie. Cet objectif est atteint par utilisation d'un dispositif de balayage de rotation 3D séparé qui identifie la bille précédemment balayée et mesurée en 3D et qui mesure la progression de rotation dans le tourne-bille en temps réel. Selon le procédé, le bois d'œuvre (bille) déjà balayé et mesuré est de nouveau balayé à l'aide d'un dispositif de balayage de rotation 3D supplémentaire et la position nouvellement balayée du bois d'œuvre est comparée aux paramètres des données précédemment balayées et, en conséquence, le processus de rotation du bois d'œuvre (bille) peut être évalué en temps réel. Ainsi, il est surveillé si le bois d'œuvre (bille) est fait tourner dans une position optimisée avant de pénétrer dans un banc de scie et, si une correction de la position du bois d'œuvre (de la bille) est nécessaire, le dispositif de balayage indiquera au tourne-bille ou à l'opérateur de faire cela.
