Title: Electrically conductive compositions and methods for the preparation and use thereof
Inventor: CAPOTE MIGUEL ALBERT
IPC: H05K1/09
Filed: 1992-10-01
Granted: 1995-10-05
Abstract: Electrically conductive adhesive compositions and methods for the preparation and use thereof, in which a solder powder, a chemically protected cross-linking agent with fluxing properties and a reactive monomer or polymer are the principal components. Depending upon the intended end use, the compositions comprise three or more of the following: a relatively high melting metal powder; solder powder; the active cross-linking agent which also serves as a fluxing agent; a resin; and a reactive monomer or polymer. The compositions are useful as improved conductive adhesives, such as for attaching electrical components to electrical circuits; the compositions comprising metal powder are ideally suited for creating the conductive paths on printed circuits. The compositions for forming conductive paths may first be applied to a substrate in the desired pattern of an electrical circuit, and then heated to cure it. During heating, the action of the cross-linking agent and optional reactive monomer or polymer within the mixture fluxes the metals, enabling sintering to occur between the metal powder and the solder powder.

Title: Process for simultaneously transmitting signals from N-signal sources
Inventor: BRANDENBURG KARL-HEINZ
IPC: H04S1/00
Filed: 1992-10-28
Granted: 1996-02-08
Abstract: A process is disclosed for simultaneously transmitting signals from N-signal sources over a corresponding number of transmission channels. The individual signals are subdivided into blocks and the blocks are converted into spectral coefficients by transformation or filtering, and the latter are then subjected to a data reduction process. The invention is characterized in that the blocks belonging to the individual signals are subdivided into section. The momentary sections of all signals are processed together, the admissible disturbance is determined for each section by using a perception-specific model and the momentarily required total transmission capacity is calculated. The allocation of the maximum available transmission capacity for each individual signal is calculated from the total available transmission capacity and the total momentarily required transmission capacity. Each individual signal is coded and transmitted with the thus determined capacity.

Title: Operation of vertical shaft furnaces
Inventor: WESTLEY DAVID RUPERT
IPC: F27B1/16
Filed: 1993-01-25
Granted: 1995-02-23
Abstract: A hot coke bed 32 is established at the bottom of a vertical shaft furnace, e.g. an iron melting cupola 2. The cupola 2 is then charged with alternate layers 34 and 36 of ferrous metal and coke respectively. Burners 18 burn hydrocarbon fuel in the presence of a stoichiometric excess of oxygen-enriched air and thus form a hot gas mixture including oxygen. The hot gas mixture passes upwards through the shaft 4 of the cupola 2 thereby providing sufficient heat to melt the ferrous metal. Molten ferrous metal flows downwards under gravity into and through the coke bed 32 and may be removed through a tap hole 28. At least one jet of oxygen is injected into the hot coke bed 32 so as to maintain it at a temperature sufficient to superheat the molten metal. Preferably a fan 11 is operated to dilute with air the combustion gases above the level of the charge in the shaft 4 and thereby create secondary flames. No air blast is supplied to the cupola. A significant degree of superheating can be achieved while keeping down the proportion of environmentally undesirable components (i.e. particulates and carbon monoxide) in the gas exhausted from the cupola. <IMAGE>

Title: Expression and purification of recombinant soluble tissue factor
Inventor: REZAIE ALIREZA
IPC: C07K14/745
Filed: 1992-12-29
Granted: 1996-12-19
Abstract: A method is disclosed to make any protein in a form that can be isolated rapidly from a solution using a specific monoclonal antibody designated "HPC-4". It has now been determined that it is possible to form a fusion protein of the epitope with a protein to be isolated, and isolate the protein using HPC-4-based affinity chromatography. In the preferred embodiment, a specific protease cleavage site is inserted between the epitope and the protein so that the epitope can be easily removed from the isolated protein. In an example, a functionally active soluble tissue factor including the twelve amino acid epitope recognized in combination with calcium by HPC-4 and a factor Xa cleavage site was expressed from a vector inserted into a procaryotic expression system. The recombinant tissue factor can be rapidly isolated in a single chromatographic step using the HPC-4 monoclonal antibody immobilized on a suitable substrate. Once isolated, the Protein C epitope is removed by cleavage with factor Xa, leaving the functionally active, soluble tissue factor.
