Abstract: Un appareil de sondage minier (10) comprend un cadre-support (12), supportant une plateforme inclinable (18). Un mécanisme d'inclinaison déplace la plateforme inclinable (18) avec un angle d'inclinaison par rapport au cadre-support (12) compris entre 0 et 45°. Un double dispositif de chariot (24, 32), échelonné en hauteur est supporté par la plateforme inclinable. Un système d'entraînement de sonde bidirectionnel (46) est monté sur le chariot supérieur (32). Les deux chariots sont montés de manière à permettre un mouvement de va et vient selon des axes indépendants, substantiellement perpendiculaires l'un par rapport à l'autre. Un dispositif de blocage de sonde (54) monté sur la plateforme inclinable, comporte un élément de pilotage conçu pour diriger les sections de sonde et un mécanisme permettant le déplacement de l'élément de pilotage selon deux plans séparés, le second plan étant perpendiculaire au premier. Le dispositif de blocage de sonde comporte également un plateau de blocage et de désaccouplement et un mécanisme conçu pour déplacer le plateau dans un troisième plan orthogonal au premier et au second plan. De cette manière, l'élément de pilotage, avec le plateau de blocage et de désaccouplement peuvent aussi être utilisés pour bloquer et maintenir une ligne de sondage en position, même dans le cas de couches très inclinées.

Abstract: Genes encoding the St-B17 serotonin receptor protein were cloned and characterized from a rat striatum mRNA and a human genomic library. The St-B17 receptor has nucleotide and amino acid homology with previously described 5-HT genes and can bind ligands that are known to interact with serotonin receptors. In addition, the levels of intracellular cAMP in cells transfected with the receptor gene respond in a dose dependent manner to introduction of serotonin in the media.

Abstract: The position sensor according to the invention exhibits a sensor (3), the output signal (Sd) of which is dependent on the distance (d) between a measurement division (1) and a scanning unit (2). So that the distance-dependent measurement signal (Sd) is independent of temperature changes, the sensor (3) consists of a voltage divider circuit with an active branch (4) and a supplementary branch (5). In the active branch (4), magnetoresistive elements (41) are arranged which scan the measurement division (1). In the supplementary branch (5), resistive elements (51) are arranged which have the same temperature characteristics as the magneto-resistive elements (41) of the active branch (4) but have no sensitivity to magnetic fields. The voltage across the active branch (4) is the distance-dependent measurement signal (Sd) by means of which the amplitude of the position-dependent scanning signals (S1, S2) of the measurement division (1) can be regulated. <IMAGE>

Date Aug. 18, 1994An implantable elbow prosthesis (1) comprises an ulnar component (2) and a humeral component (3) wherein the head (21) of the ulnar component is designed in a bifurcated shape with two horns (22, 23) and the head (31) of the humeral component comprises a rotatable spindle (34) between two projecting flanges (32, 33). The joint component of the prosthesis is formed by arranging the head (21) of the ulnar component to engage with the spindle (34) of the humeral component. In each of the horns (22, 23) on the ulnar component (2) there is provided a groove (24, 25) which terminates in a respective blind hold (24, 25) on each horn (22, 23). A C-ring form of clip (4) connects the heads (21, 31) of the ulnar component and the humeral component, while maintaining the desired degree of freedom of movement for the elbow joint and a predetermined tolerance of movement. The clip (4) embraces the spindle (34) on the humeral component (3) with a clearance (5) between the arc (43) of the clip and the spindle and is locked to the ulnar component (2), the ends (41, 42) of the clip being inserted into the grooves (24, 25) on the horns (22, 23) of the ulnar component and engaging with the blind holes (26, 27). This ensures that the ulnar component (2) does not lose its grip on the spindle (34) of the humeral component, while at the same time the desired play is obtained in the actual joint connection, a vital circumstance for the functional characteristics of the prosthesis.

Abstract: A therapeutic mattress overlay for supporting a recumbent human body so as to redistribute body weight away from prominent areas of the human body and also to support selected anatomical body portions, e.g., the lower extremities, of the recumbent human body has a substantially planer resilient member having top and bottom surfaces and first and second edges. Reinforcements extend from proximate the first edge to proximate the second edge of the planer resilient mender such that a patient may be rotated by grasping the reinforcements proximate the first edge of the resilient member and lifting the first edge thereof so as to cause the patient to roll toward the second edge thereof. The reinforcements prevent damage to the resilient member during lifting of the first edge. The pad is formed to have at least one area of less resistance thereon which corresponds to protruding portion(s) of a human body.

Abstract: A switching matrix includes at least two parallel circuit boards each having plural conductive traces and multiple matrix holes therethrough arranged to permit traces on one board to be connected to traces on the second board. Connection is achieved by means of a flexible non-conductive circuit jumper pin having a resilient conductive sleeve arranged to extend between an aligned pair of holes in the two boards. The holes are conductively plated to define female contacts to radially compress the conductive sleeve. Circuit jumper pins may be moved between different matrix positions manually or by a pick and place mechanism controlled from a remote location. In one embodiment, serving as a telephone cross-connect switch, connections are made in pairs, therebeing four circuit boards and two conductive sleeves on each pin, each sleeve interconnecting a pair of traces on a respective pair of boards. In this embodiment the pins are inserted to the first board and external connections to the matrix are made via plug-end connectors at the fourth board. Connections between the first and fourth boards are provided by jumper rods extending through aligned jumper holes defined in each board. Housekeeping holes are provided at the matrix periphery to jump signals between the first and second boards and between the third and fourth boards.

Abstract: The invention is directed to biological processes and apparatus for determining the efficacy of a sterilization cycle based upon the recovery of activity of interactive enzyme systems comprising enzymes, coenzymes, catalysts, cofactors, substrates or any other necessary reagents. The invention provides a vital process for expediting sterility verification before utilization of the articles thought to be sterilized. The invention involves the rapid detection of any surviving interactive enzymatic activity which directly relates to the probability of any biological spores surviving in a test sample. An absence of a change indicates that the sterilization process had inactivated the enzyme system thereby preventing the interactive reaction from taking place which is a rapid equivalent to directly detecting the survivability of bacterial spores in a similar test. The methods and apparatus of the invention are useful in the health care industry such as in hospitals, laboratories, and research institutions, in food and environmental technology, and in all technologies which utilize sterilization in manufacturing, production or waste disposal.

Abstract: A novel starch-based texturizing agent is disclosed. The texturizing agent is produced from high amylose (>40%) starch under specific conditions of temperature, pressure and shear. The texturizing agent functions to provide several fat-like attributes such as structure, viscosity, smoothness and opacity to reduce and/or essentially replace the fat content in foods. Additionally the texturizing agent can be used in full fat foods as a stabilizer. Foods containing the novel texturizing agents include mayonnaise, spoonable and pourable salad dressings, yogurt, cottage cheese, sour cream, cream cheese, peanut butter, frosting, cheesecake, mousse and several sauces, among others. The texturizing agent can also be incorporated into drug and cosmetic formulations.
