Patent EP-0573997-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NOHDA SHIGETOSHI
IPC: H04N5/349
Filed: 1993-06-09
Abstract: A solid-state image pickup device for imaging an object using a CCD image sensor. The solid-state image pickup device includes a half wave plate (3) between first and second birefringence plates (2 and 4) shifting the optical path of the image pickup light the radiation of which is interrupted by on/off control of an electrical voltage. The half wave plate transforms an ordinary light ray into an extraordinary light ray and radiates the resulting extraordinary light ray, while transforming an extraordinary light ray into an ordinary light ray and radiates the resulting ordinary light ray. The image pickup light is radiated to the CCD image sensor (6) while the voltage to be applied across the first and second birefringence plates is on/off controlled simultaneously. When the voltage to be applied across the first and the second birefringence plates is turned off, the image pickup light ray is radiated to the CCD image sensor as an extraordinary light ray without its optical path being changed. When the voltage to be applied across the first and the second birefringence plates is turned off, the image pickup light is split into an ordinary light ray and an extraordinary light ray for light axis shifting. However, the extraordinary light ray and the ordinary light ray are summed at the second birefringence plate so as to be radiated on the CCD image sensor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a set of profiles for the quick mounting of panels for cladding wall regions which are to be covered over. In this arrangement, a basic profile with latching receiving means is assigned a clamping profile equipped with a mating notching. A receiving groove for the border of the panel is provided between the basic profile and the clamping profile. The invention consists in the fact that the basic profile (1) has at least one spacing central web (11). A bearing web (12) projects at right angles from said central web (11). Running, likewise at right angles, from said bearing web (12), at a defined border spacing (A) from the central web (11), is a latching web (13) which is equipped, on the one hand, with notches (131) and, on the other hand, with spacing webs (132, 133). Furthermore, there is latchably inserted, into the latching receiving means (21) formed between the upper wall (2) of a construction element (5) and the latching web (13), a latching web (31) which is provided with a mating notching (311) and belongs to an angular covering profile (3). The outer leg (32) of said latching web (31) runs at an angle towards the bearing web (12) and is equipped, at its point of connection (33) to the latching web (31) and at its free end (34), with a soft sealing lip (35, 36) in each case. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for regulating the voltage at which electric energy is supplied at the delivery points in a network for distributing electricity. The voltage of electric energy supplied through a high-voltage network is reduced to a voltage suitable for a medium-voltage network by means of at least one variable transformer. The voltage of the electric energy in the medium-voltage network is reduced, by means of at least one transformer, to a voltage suitable for a low-voltage network supplying the electric energy to the consumers. The adjustment of the variable transformer between a high-voltage network and a medium-voltage network is influenced by the actual voltage measured and the current or load at the output side of the variable transformer. The voltage prevailing at the delivery point is measured at the location of at least a number of consumers and the variable transformer is set partly in dependence on the voltage thus measured at the consumers' location.

Abstract: A method for preparing phycobiliprotein/amine-reactive dye conjugates is disclosed in which the conjugates so prepared overcome the energy transfer/fluorescent quenching dilemma encountered in the use of prior art conjugates. A phycobiliprotein, for example, phycoerythrin or allophycocyanin, is conjugated with an amine-reactive dye, for example, Texas Red or carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester, in the presence of a selective salt which causes a hydrophobic intramolecular rearrangement of the phycobiliprotein thereby exposing more hydrophobic sites for binding to the amine-reactive dye. The conjugates prepared according to the invention are useful in multiple color fluorescence assays without requiring the use of multiple exciting sources.

Abstract: A device for transmitting signals from an amplifer (8) to a loudspeaker (9) consists of a cable (1) having a number of forward and return conductors (2, 2') electrically connected to one another at their ends and a sound modification element (14) which exhibits a series inductance (L1, L2) and a series resistor (R1, R2). Using the sound modification element (14), the cable (1) can be optimally adapted to the given loudspeaker/amplifier combination (8, 9). The signal transmission device also exhibits an attenuator (13) at the cable end at the load. The attenuator (13) suppresses the tendency to oscillation of the amplifer which can occur in the case of cables having a high capacitance. In particular, long cable lengths which lead to a particularly high capacitance, thus do not present any problems in the signal transmission device according to the invention. <IMAGE>
