Patent DE-69330203-T2 (DE)
Inventor: PODRAZHANSKY YURY
IPC: H01M10/48

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for rapidly charging a battery. The preferred charging method comprises applying one or more charging pulses (C1, C2), separated by a waiting period (CW1), with the last charging pulse, if there are more than one, being followed by a second waiting period (CW2). This is then followed by a series of discharging pulses (D1, D2, D3), which are separated by waiting periods (DW1, DW2), and followed by a last waiting period (DW3) before the occurrence of the next charging pulse (C1). The discharging pulses preferably have a magnitude which is approximately the same as the magnitude of the charging pulses but which have a duration which is substantially smaller than the duration of the charging pulses. The discharging pulses serve to create and disperse ions throughout the electrolyte of the battery so that the ions do not shield the plates of the battery from further charge transfer. Multiple discharge pulses are used rather than a single discharging pulse so that natural chemical and electrical gradients within the battery will serve to disperse the ions more evenly throughout the electrolyte. The use of discharging pulses of an extremely small duration does not cause any significant discharge of the battery but does increase the rate at which the battery can be charged and the efficiency with which the battery can be charged, thereby minimizing charging time and battery heating. Also disclosed are a method and an apparatus for thawing and charging a frozen battery, for formatting a new battery, for determining the state of formation of a battery, and for determining the state of charge of a battery.

Abstract: The present invention relates to dry, stable compositions which can be reconstituted to form pharmaceutical or cosmetic emulsions, and to methods for making such compositions. An emulsion is formed from about 0.2 to 25 weight percent of a first component of an oil, about 0.1 to 5 weight percent of a second component of an emulsifier, about 0.25 to 25 weight percent of a cryoprotectant of an amino compound, such as one or more amino acids, peptides or protein hydrolysates, and an aqueous component, wherein the amino compound is present in an amount that is equal to or greater than that of the first component. Optionally, a co-emulsifier, a suspension agent, a preservative, an antioxidant and a drug can be added to these emulsions. Thereafter, the emulsion is lyophilized to form dry compositions that have from about 40 to about 90 weight percent of the amino compound; from about 0.1 to about 20 weight percent of the emulsifier; and from about 0.2 to about 40 weight percent of the oily component. By combining the dry composition with an appropriate quantity of an aqueous liquid, the composition is reformed as an oil-in-water emulsion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for removing elemental sulfur which is present in a gas in the form of vapor and/or entrained particles, in which process the gas to be treated is cooled. The gas to be treated is introduced into a heat exchanger at the lower end thereof and with the aid of the temperature and/or the flow velocity of the cooling medium it is ensured that the wall of the heat exchanger has a temperature below the solidification point of sulfur and above the dew point of water, if any, present in the gas. The deposited sulfur is removed under the influence of gravity countercurrent to the gas to be treated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for automatic proving theorems describing physical systems in first order logic. This method is used to produce complex systems and is implemented with the aid of a computer in whose memory a theorem to be proved is represented by at least one binary decision diagram (BDD). The method seeks to reduce the BDD to a constant T, symbolizing truth, by a substitution, by constructing and exploring a search tree of possible substitutions. The tree is constructed by minimizing the branching factor and is explored by maximizing in accordance with the Shannon theory, the information gain obtained at each node of the search tree.

Abstract: A cartridge is provided to present a biological sample for analysis by an imaging instrument. The cartridge of the invention utilizes a series of channels, capillaries, reservoirs and stop junctions to precisely move a sample, reagent and diluent through the cartridge as a function of the sum of capillary, gravitational and low centrifugal forces. The operator applies a precise amount of sample to the cartridge; therefore, the cartridge fluidics need not meter the sample prior to dilution. A practical and cost effective cartridge and assay process is disclosed which overcomes many of the limitations of the prior art. Such a cartridge is especially useful with fixed volume assays which permit low centrifugal accelerations to move the fluids within the cartridge.
