Abstract: Disposable chemical reaction packs are known for use in automatic analysis equipment. Manually-applied external pressure is applied to each chamber of the pack to open a normally closed seal. However, this process is tedious, time consuming and inexact as inconsistencies or variations in pressure and time can adversely effect the chemical reactions taking place within the pack. Described herein is transfer apparatus for transferring a liquid between chambers of such a pack. The apparatus (10) includes a series of actuation modules (14), each having a first major surface (18) and a second major surface (20), which are arranged so that the first major surface (18) of one module confronts the second major surface (20) of an adjacent module. The space between the two major surfaces (18, 20) of adjacent modules defines a receiving station (16) for a chemical reaction pack. Each actuation module (14) includes pressure applicators (24) for applying external pressure to the chambers of the reaction pack and temperature control elements (40, 42) for heating and cooling the test liquid within the chemical reaction pack.

Abstract: A polymer film laminate is provided having improved machinability on modern high speed belt drive machines, particularly when these machines are set up to form lap back seals. A method of assembling such a film is also provided. The film includes an outside web having an upper surface layer containing a silicone oil. This laminating web can be used with virtually any co-laminate, metallized or not, which is bonded thereto with an adhesive. Upon winding the composite film laminate upon a core, silicone oil is transferred to the inside surface of the laminate, thus providing an inside coefficient friction which is about equal to or less than the outside coefficient of friction. Hot slip properties are also improved upon such transfer. The outside and inside webs are independently formed, which allows the inside web to include coatings or film layers which are not ordinarily usable in a silicone oil-containing film.

A multiple channel head with at least three channels, each having at least one element for reading or writing, is used to access the tracks on the tape. The head is moved proximate one of a plurality of predetermined positions. The channels are located so that, in any one predetermined position of the head, one channel accesses the center of a dedicated servo track on the tape and at least two other channels will access the center of distinct data tracks. Depending on the predetermined position of the head, different channels will access a dedicated servo track. The position information on a dedicated servo track is used to move the head to one of the predetermined positions once the head has been moved proximate that predetermined position.

Abstract: Disclosed is a proces for the gas-phase preparation of a thin film. In this process, atoms or molecules present in the reaction system are irradiated with laser beams having an appropriately selected wavelength, to excite a target atom or molecule, whereby a selective excitation and ionization are effected. The target atom or molecule is separated from another atom or molecule by an electric field to form a high purity thin film, or the target atom or molecule unnecessary for formation of thin film is taken out by an electric field, and a high-purity thin film is formed. Furthermore, the selectively excited atom or molecule is selectively reacted with an atom or molecule independently introduced, and the reaction product is separated to form a high purity thin film, or the reaction product unnecessary for a formation of a thin film is taken out and a high purity thin film is formed. A thin film having a high purity can be prepared according to this process.

Abstract: A line driver (12) is coupled by a pair of signal lines (10,11) to a receiver (13). Preprocessing circuitry (18), for processing signals arriving on the pair of signal lines at the receiver, includes regulating means (Fig. 2) for regulating the potential between the signal lines between predetermined limits and thereby modifying the sensitivity of the system to compensate for changes in line conditions and reject interference when the line driver is powered down. The regulating means comprise: bias means (Q1-Q3,Q12) for putting a bias on the signal passing through to the receiver, so as to hold the receiver input away from the triggering voltage level so that it is not triggered by noise; and bias limiting means (Q6-Q7,Q9-Q11) responsive to signals from the driver so as to limit or reduce the effective bias, so that the sensitivity of the system to true signals from the driver is not reduced below a desired level.
