Abstract: Improvements to the laser lighting assembly, illustrated and described in U.  S. Patent Application S/N 09151,479, pertain essentially to automatically controlling when the laser lighting assembly, mounted on a forklift, will be projecting a light beam parallel to and in the same plane as a fork, which itself is parallel to a floor or ground level.  Until the forks are parallel to a floor or a ground level the laser light will not be continuously on. When an operator of the forklift is adjusting the forks to be level, and then parallel to a floor or ground level, as the level positions are being approached, the laser light appears in a blinking sequence with the off periods initially being longer and then becoming shorter as the level positions are approached. Then when the level positions of the forks are reached the laser light is on full time. In addition, a laser light beam is provided which projects as a planar beam of light to match the planar location of both of the projecting forks of a forklift, and the operator then, if necessary, adjusts his or her controls of the forklift to insure the forks will also be in same planar location of the fork receiving volume of the loaded pallet, while remaining parallel to a floor or ground level. Thereafter, the forklift is advanced toward the pallet so both the forks will enter the fork receiving volume and there will be no damage of the load on the pallet. Also this on time of the laser light beam is further controlled, by only being on, when the laser light beam is being projected from an elevation above a selected height above a floor or ground level, when other persons may be in the operational area and moving about on a floor or ground level. In respect to this automatic control of turning off the laser lighting assembly below the selected height above a floor or ground level , an overriding control is available to the operator, so he or she may observe a laser light beam projected at any level above a floor or ground level. Moreover, there is an automatic control which turns off the laser lighting assembly, when there has been no operational activity of the forklift for a preselected time period. Then there is also a complete on or off control of the entire laser lighting assembly.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour déterminer la maturité et la qualité des fruits et des baies par la mesure de l'intensité de la fluorescence chlorophyllienne ainsi qu'un appareil pour trier les fruits et les baies. Selon le procédé, on détermine l'intensité de la fluorescence chlorophyllienne provenant des fruits et des baies. L'invention consiste à provoquer la fluorescence d'une molécule de chlorophylle en irradiant les fruits et les baies avec des rayons électromagnétiques ayant une longueur d'onde appropriée puis à mesurer le degré de fluorescence. Les avantages de ce procédé résident dans sa sensibilité très élevée, dans son caractère absolument non destructif et dans sa vitesse extrêmement élevée. Ces avantages permettent de construire une trieuse dans laquelle les baies et les fruits sont sélectionnés en fonction de la quantité de chlorophylle. Comme l'intensité de la fluorescence chlorophyllienne est directement liée à la quantité de chlorophylle, il est désormais possible de trier les fruits et les baies en fonction de leur maturité et de leur qualité.

Abstract: The anticancer drug taxol binds to beta-tubulin in assembled microtubules (M T) and causes cell cycle arrest in animal cells; in contrast, the effect of tax ol varies in fungi. For instance, the taxol-producer Pestalotiopsis microspora Ne32, an ascomycete, is resistant to taxol (1C50~11.7 M), whereas Pythium ultimum and Phytophthora cinnamomi, two oomycetes, are sensitive to taxol (IC50 0.1 .mu.M). cDNAs encoding beta-tubulin from P.microspora, P. ultimum,  and P. cinnamomi were isolated. The deduced amino acid sequences of beta- tubulin from P. microspora, P.ultimum, and P. cinnamomi can be used in (1) binding assays for the detection of taxol and taxol-like substances; (2) diagnostic assays for the pharmacologic efficacy of taxol against a tumor sample; (3) designing drugs with taxol-like activity via application of information regarding the effect of specific residues on taxol binding; and (4) detection of taxol and taxol-like activity via use of taxol-sensitive an d taxol-resistant isogenic strains of P.ultimum constructed by substitution of  residues necessary for taxol binding.

Patent CA-2372245-A1 (CA)
Title: Belt for continuously variable transmission
Inventor: SHIMADA TAKAMICHI
IPC: F16G5/16
Filed: 2000-12-22
Abstract: In a belt for a continuously variable transmission, a first clearance CL NH is defined between a projection and a recess formed on front and rear surfaces of a metal element, and a second clearance C Ly is defined between an upper surface of a metal ring assembly and a lower ear surface of the metal element. The setting of a relation, CLY > CL NH ensures that when the metal element has been pitched, the projection and the recess can be first brought into contact with each other, thereby preventing a reduction in durability which may otherwise occur by the lower ear surface coming into contact with the upper surface of the metal ring assembly. If the thickness of the metal ring assembly is represented by T L, and the vertical opening of the ring slot is represented by D, when the value of D/T L exceeds 11/8, the power transmitting efficiency is reduced. Therefore, the reduction in power transmitting efficiency can be prevented by setting D/T L at a smaller value than 11/8. Thus, it is possible to ensure a power transmitting efficiency, while preventing a reduction in durability of the metal ring assembly due to the pitching of the metal element.
