Abstract: The invention relates to a tool head for a device that is used to automatically isolate and treat cell clones by means of a cloning dome, which isolates the respective cell clone from the environment, said cloning dome being held in a detachable manner by the tip of a pipette and the latter being fixed by a non-positive fit to a conical receiving element of the tool head. To hold the cloning dome on the tip of the pipette, the latter comprises a conical section, over which a complementary conical section of the cloning dome is folded and the tool head is fixed to an arm of a robot system. According to the invention, the end of the arm that is located on the tool head side is equipped with a receiving block ( 1 ), which has a lower ( 2 ) and an upper ( 3 ) stop to delimit the displacement path of a displaceable holder ( 4 ) for the pipette tip receiving element, said holder ( 4 ) being guided on the receiving block ( 1 ) by means of a linear guide ( 5 ). In addition, the upper stop ( 3 ) is configured as a graduated, laminated spring assembly ( 12, 13, 14 ) that is fixed on one side, in such a way that graduated stop forces are produced over the predetermined constant displacement path during the displacement of the arm and tool head towards a fixed point, thus producing a defined frictional connection of the conical holders of the tip of the pipette and the cloning dome.

Patent CA-2571105-A1 (CA)
Inventor: KEERTHI ARVIND VIJAY
IPC: H04L25/02
Filed: 2005-06-14
Abstract: To perform time synchronization using spectral estimation, a receiver obtains a frequency response estimate for pilot symbols received on each set of frequency subbands used for pilot transmission. The receiver performs spectral estimation on frequency response estimates for different sets of subbands to obtain a measured arrival time for a transmission from a transmitter. The spectral estimation determines a dominant frequency component in the frequency response estimates and derives the measured arrival time based on this dominant frequency component. A time error between the measured arrival time and a desired arrival time is computed and possibly filtered. The filtered or unfiltered time error is scaled with a fixed or adjustable gain. A time adjustment is then generated based on the scaled time error and using linear and/or non-linear functions. The time adjustment is sent to the transmitter and used to adjust the transmit timing at the transmitter.

Title: Flare stack combustion method and apparatus
Inventor: MASHHOUR MAZEN M
IPC: F23D1/00
Filed: 2005-12-02
Abstract: High-pressure air is discharged in the form of jets moving at a high velocity from nozzles mounted on a ring around the interior of the flare stack, placed at a predetermined distance from the flare tip and the portion of the surrounding stack wall downstream of the jets is perforated with air passages to admit atmospheric air. The high-velocity air movement induces a larger volume of air from the atmosphere to enter the stack where it rises to the flame zone, thereby lifting the flame and enhancing turbulent mixing of air and gas in the flame zone. Adequate stoichiometric amounts of oxygen to assure complete combustion are determined by measuring any variations of the mass flow rate of the fuel gas and/or undesired chemical and effecting a corresponding adjustment of an air flow control valve to admit a predetermined amount of pressurized air and/or atmospheric air to the flaring tip. A Coanda-effect body is positioned proximate the open end of the flare stack to improve the mixing of the air feedstream with atmospheric air and combustible components and to elevate the heat of the flame above the metal structural elements that control air flow at the top of the flare stack.
