Abstract: The method for pile production consists of supplying a binding construction material (6) to a drilled hole (1) or to the ground, while producing high-voltage discharges in the construction material (6) and of moving the region (7) of the construction material supply and of the discharge excitation above the height of the pile which is to be produced. A total discharge energy at a given depth is selected such that the expansion of a corresponding section of the drilled hole (1) or of the ground is achieved at this depth up to the desired diameter of the pile. A region (8) of anchored ground with an increased strength, and a region (9) of compressed ground with improved building properties are formed around the pile under the influence of discharges. The pile production tool contains a pipe (3) for supplying the construction material and a discharge device, having electrodes (10, 11) which are arranged coaxially and are displaced with respect to one another and which are mounted on an insulating bar (15) which runs inside the first electrode (10).

Title: INHIBITING TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR -g(b) TO PREVENT ACCUMULATION OF EXTRACELLULAR MATRIX.
Inventor: BORDER WAYNE A
IPC: C07K16/22
Filed: 1990-09-27
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for treating or arresting the progress of pathologies characterized by an accumulation of extracellular matrix components by providing an agent to suppress the activity of transforming growth factor  beta (TGF- beta ) a peptide growth factor which is anabolic and leads to fibrosis and angiogenesis. In one embodiment, such agent is anti-TGF- beta antobidy. Pathologies which can be so treated include the various fibrotic diseases. The invention further provides a method for the diagnosis of pathologies, or incipient pathologies, which are characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix components in tissues by determining the levels of TGF- beta  in the tissues, a high level being indicative of such pathologies. <IMAGE>

Inventor: YAMAMOTO MASAKAZU
IPC: F04D13/02
Filed: 1991-07-12
Abstract: A pump mounting structure of a canned submersible motor for a deep well pump is disclosed. The motor comprises a stator chamber and bearing brackets provided on opposite sides of the stator chamber. The bearing bracket on a load side of the motor includes a pump mounting flange (4d) for supporting the pump thereon. The improvement consists of a pump suction port (S) being formed in the load side bearing bracket to thereby make the load side bearing bracket serve as a pump suction casing, and of the pump mounting flange (4d) being constituted as a pump body mounting flange. By this means, heat generated in the stator chamber (1 a) is dissipated efficiently by the water passing through the suction port (S) provided in the bearing bracket. Also, as a pump suction casing is not necessary, an axial length of the pump can be shortened and the number of parts can be reduced.

IPC: B01D46/42
Filed: 1991-08-02
Abstract: Particulate material is separated from high temperature gas using a number of elongated porous walled tubular filter elements (17). The dirty sides of the filter elements (17) are operatively connected to a dirty gas inlet (13) to an upright vessel, while the clean side of the filter element (17) is in operative association with a clean gas outlet (18). A separated particle outlet (14) extends from the bottom of the vessel. Cleaning of the filter element (17) takes place by a pulse of high pressure cleansing gas which is supplied to the clean side of the filters (17). In order to prevent thermal shock or mechanical damage to the filters (17), especially since the cleansing gas is of a lower temperature than the gas being filtered, the volume of cleansing gas is positively controlled. This is accomplished by placing a restrictor (33) (e.g. Orifice or nozzle) between the high pressure source (28) of cleansing gas and a reservoir (32) having a volume sufficient to effect cleansing, but insufficient to cause thermal shock. A conduit (29), with a quick acting valve (30) therein, extends from the reservoir (32) to the clean side of the filter elements (17). Even if the valve (30) sticks in the open position, there is insufficient volume and/or flow rate of cleansing gas to cause thermal shock to the filters/(17).

Abstract: A compact deflecting device for the conveyance of letters or the like in one of a plurality of selectable directions, is formed by a large number of deflecting components (1-1. --, 1-4) placed at a mutually equal distance along an endless conveyor (15) driven in a main conveyance direction (A). Every component combines a deflecting and conveying function with relatively small space requirement. For this purpose, it comprises not only a downstream-pointing deflecting tongue (4) but also a guide roller (6) which are both mounted on a swivel arm construction (9, 10), which can be swivelled by activating a rotary magnet (2) between two positions. Every component (1-1, --, 1-4) is positioned and dimensioned in a manner such that, when swivelling from one position to the other, the access to a conveyance direction deviating from the main direction is freed or essentially closed off and that, in both positions, the guide roller (6) continues to interact in a conveying manner with the conveyor (15).
