Inventor: SCHADT HERBERT
IPC: G06F1/16
Filed: 1997-10-16
Abstract: The device transmits data between a notebook computer, and a printer, which are arranged in a suitcase. The computer is removably assembled in the suitcase. A microprocessor (5) at the computer side changes the data to be transferred into a serial bit stream. A modulator modulates a carrier frequency with the bit current, and an infrared transmitter (7) emits the amplitude-modulated carrier frequency in a direction towards a reflecting surface area. The microprocessor, the modulator, and the infrared transmitter are located in a computer module (22), which is connected over an emulated interface (20) as a plug module with an interface connector of the computer (1). An infrared receiver (8) is provided at the printer side, which receives the reflected infrared radiation, and a converter (11,21) converts the information into printing data for a printer module (23) connected over an interface (13) to the printer (14).

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed which is particularly suitable for the
DIY cultivation of plants and vegetables using a water soluble membrane
(10) to which seeds are attached. The membrane (10) is preferably made of
paper and placed over a container (20) containing an organic growing
medium (22). It is then watered sufficiently to cause the paper membrane

Abstract: A temperature sensor includes a semiconductor wafer 26 having a
thermocouple junction 46 formed on or placed upon the wafer surface 30. The
thermocouple junction 46 may consist of a first patterned conductor 36 overlying
the wafer 26 with a second patterned conductor 40 disposed from it. The first and
second patterned conductors 36 and 40 make electrical contact with one another
at an overlapping region to create the thermocouple junction 46. Additional
thermocouple junctions 89 may be formed vertically above the thermocouple
junction 46 to provide a plurality of vertically stacked thermocouples to measure
vertical thermal gradients. A method of forming the temperature sensor includes
overlying a semiconductor substrate 26 with an insulating material 66. The
thermocouple junction 46 is formed on the insulating layer 66 by forming two
dissimilar conductor materials such that they are disposed from one another except
for at their ends, where they make electrical contact and form the thermocouple
junction 46.

Abstract: A stencil printing apparatus is provided, which
comprises: 
   a pressure chamber comprising a first plate member (1)
on which a sheet (P) to be printed is placed, an airtight
elastic frame (3) which is placed on said first plate
member (1) to surround said sheet, and a second plate
member (2) which is placed on said elastic frame and
supports a stencil (6) opposite to said sheet; a resilient
air chamber (4) which is layered below said first plate
member (1) of said pressure chamber and communicates with
said pressure chamber; and a check valve (5) which allows
air to be exhausted from said air chamber (4) to the
outside of said printing apparatus but inhibits said air
chamber from sucking in air from the outside. Stencil
printing can be effected by placing a stencil printing ink
(7) on the stencil (6), disposing the stencil (6) and the
sheet (P) to be printed in the pressure chamber,
compressing said air chamber (4) to exhaust air to the
outside and then releasing the compression of said air
chamber while said air chamber is kept sealed from the
outside, so that said pressure chamber is depressurized to
allow the pair of plate members (1,2) to come close to each
other and simultaneously bring said stencil (6) into close
contact with said sheet (P) to transfer said ink (7) to
said sheet by virtue of suction caused by said air chamber
that is restoring its shape.

Abstract: The composite used for the casing is a carbon and silicon fibre in aluminium composite. Channels (16, 17) are cut into the base (11) either from below or above and aluminium (21) is deposited on the walls under vacuum by ionic vapour deposition. This enables the aluminium sheet (19, 20) to be fixed to the walls and a cover (18) to be soldered onto the base to seal the channels. The thermal contact between the upper surface (13) of the base and the alumina board (14) supporting the components is ensured by tin-lead-silver or indium lead soldering of all the lower surface of the board and coating the upper base surface with silver. A titanium cover (24) is soldered to the walls by laser.

Abstract: A feed system for a combustive, e.g. air, to the combustion chamber of a gas turbine, has a series of regulating diaphragms (11a, 11b), each with a series of vanes (12a, 12b) forming inlet channels and an outer ring (16a, 16b) with apertures linked to the channels. The diaphragms in each pair are controlled by regulators (27a, 27b) connected to a common control member (21). One regulator in each pair acts on the vanes of a diaphragm unit, turning them relative to the ring, while the other one acts on the ring and adjusts it relative to the vanes to control the combustive flow.

Abstract: The method for supplying to a consumer pipe (15), during an interval of time, a variable demand flow of a component of air, in particular oxygen, produced by an air distillation device, by: a) sucking from the device a total flow of the component of constant value (D1); b) dividing the time interval into different periods, so that eventually there is at least a first period during which the flow required (D) is equal to the total flow (D1); c) at least a second period during which the flow is less than the total flow; and at least a third period during which the flow is greater than the total flow. During the first period(s) the total flow is brought to the user pressure (P) and sent to the consumer pipe. During the second period(s), the required flow is brought to the pressure (P) and sent to the consumer pipe and a storage flow (equal to the difference between the supply and the required flow) is brought to a higher pressure (P1) greater than the user pressure and stored in a balancing store. During the third period(s), the total flow is brought to the user pressure and sent to the consumer pipe and a complementary flow (equal to the difference between the required flow and the supply) is delivered from the balancing store and expanded to the user pressure.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé qui permet d'omettre les phases de dégraissage et d'oxydation requises dans le processus classique: il s'agit d'enduire de résine une feuille d'acier utilisée pour la fabrication de nombreuses pièces usinées d'un tube image couleur intérieur. Ainsi, on réduit les risques pour l'environnement et les phénomènes de rouille sur les pièces usinées induits par la solution de dégraissage et l'huile en cours d'oxydation. Par ailleurs, la feuille d'acier lubrifiée est rentable car le procédé de fabrication omet quelques étapes.

Abstract: An intravascular balloon occlusion device according to the invention is shown. The device is ideally suited for use in a coronary artery bypass graft procedure. The device includes a body having at least one selectively inflated balloon provided on the distal end thereof. Preferably, the body is a closed end body so that fluid can only flow from the proximal end of the body into the balloon. In use, the distal end of the body and the balloon are inserted into an aperture provided in the aorta. The ballon is inflated and then the device is rectracted until the ballon seats against the incision or aperture in the aorta, thereby effectively sealing the aperture from the blood flow through the aorta, but not occluding blood flow through the body of the aorta itself. Next, the graft vessel is telescopically positioned on the occlusion device and mounted to the aorta. Once the vessel is secured thereto, the balloon is deflated and then the occlusion device is retracted from both the aorta and the graft vessel. Finally, the second end of the graft vessel is mounted to the appropriate coronary artery.

A primary administration of a live attenuated strain of RSV or PIV first is made to the host followed by a booster administration of at least one purified RSV or PIV protein or immunogenic fragment thereof, which may be adjuvanted with alum. This immunization strategy provides a safe and effective means of controlling disease caused by RSV and PIV infections. The strategy leads to a stronger protective immune response than other strategies and to the induction of a more balanced Th-1/Th-2 type response than previously attained.
