Title: Method and device for a combined treatment of domestic sewag e and domestic biodegradable garbage
Inventor: BRAUN ULRICH
IPC: C05F7/00
Filed: 1996-05-02
Abstract: The invention is a method and device for the combined treatment of sewage an/or waste water and biodegradable garbage. The treatment method for the liquid phase of the waste is mechanical treatment (rake, sand, trap, etc.), including fat and grease removal, primary aerobic treatment (BOD5 and COD removal and nitrification), secondary anaerobic treatment (Denitrification, Phosphorus removal) (8) and tertiary treatment before sterilisation. The treatment method for the biodegradable garbage from which the wooden compounds have been removed together with the different sludges (raw sewage sludge or primary sludge, secondary sludge from the primary treatment, tertiary sludge from the secondary treatment) is primary treated anaerobically in a hydrolysis device (9), secondary together with the fats and grease ananerobically in a methane fermenting device (11), tertiary aerobically in draining and/or drying device (13) and at least aerobically composted with the shredded wooden compounds in a composting device. The locally available natural energies (solar thermal energy, gravity) as well as the energy produced by the method and device itself (gassing pressure, aerobic catabolic excess heat) are used for the functions of the plant to avoid costly machinery. The plant is preferably designed as a compact tower, using the fucntional principle of fixed dome plants for ananerobic fermentation.

Title: Method for obtaining transgenic plants showing a modified fructan pattern
Inventor: SMEEKENS JOSEPHUS CHRISTIANUS
IPC: A23L29/244
Filed: 1993-12-28
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for obtaining transgenic plants showing a modified fructan pattern as compared to non-transformed plants, comprising the steps of: a) preparing a DNA construct comprising one or more fructosyltransferase genes, or modified versions thereof, being operably linked to a promoter sequence active in plants and a terminator sequence active in plants; b) transforming a plant cell with the construct; and c) regenerating a transgenic plant from the transformed plant cell. Preferably, the 5' untranslated region of the fructosyltransferase gene is modified such that the expression of the fructosyltransferase is not negatively affected. The DNA construct may also comprise a targeting sequence upstream from the fructosyltransferase gene for directing the fructosyltransferase to a specific plant tissue or plant cell compartment. The fructosyltransferases produced in the transgenic plants change the fructan pattern of the plants, thus leading to different plant performance due to altered sink-source relations and yield, increased tolerance for drought, cold or other stresses, higher dry matter content, better taste and storability, and improved nutritional value. The plants are also suitable for use as raw material for fructan production.

Title: Digitally controlled phase shifter
Inventor: GOLDENBERG YOAV
IPC: H03K5/13
Filed: 1993-12-22
Abstract: A clock is phase shifted by an amount controlled by the value of a control signal by establishing at least several discrete delay times to be imposed on the clock. The control signal value controls selection of the imposed discrete delay time. An analog-to-digital converter of a phase locked loop responds to intelligence representing variable phase bits and the selected phase shifted clock to control the signal value. The selected replica is derived by at least several cascaded substantially equal time delay units. In one embodiment, a multiplexer responds to the clock, and the signal value, which is Gray coded, to control connections from one of the delay units to an output terminal. In another embodiment, the number of cascaded delay units interposed between the clock and an output terminal is controlled by the signal value.

Filed: 2000-09-12
Abstract: A releasable grip-and-hold device for panelling boards (28), pivotally mounted on the extreme end of a pivoted boom (18) of liftable/lowerable board-handling apparatus. Said device comprises a board-supporting frame (26) with hooks (32) for securely holding opposite board edges until the moment of release from the device in the mounting position of the board. The hooks (32) are formed on respective end sections (34) of said frame (26) and are connected to the frame (26) in a pivoted, spring-loaded manner. A wire (62) leads from a fixed point (60) on the supporting frame (26) at the pivot point (30) thereof, to a constructional element on the board-handling apparatus. When the boomwork (18) is pivoted, the wire (62) provides for the supporting frame (26) to be rotated 180 DEG  from a stack of panelling boards (28) lying horizontally, and so that the supporting frame (26) with the panelling board (28) lying on top is sloping slightly in the longitudinal direction. This sloping position of the panelling board (28) resting on top of the supporting frame (26) via small pivoted supporting means (44), then bringing it into a displacing motion, so that it first pivots the supporting means (44) and then exerts a push force on the hooks (34), which pivot resiliently away in order to start the successive release of the panelling board (28) from its grip-and-hold device.
