The apparatus uses a treatment device having at least one piezoelectric transducer element to supply ultrasonic waves focussed onto a focal point or region that determines the tissue zone submitted to therapy. The treatment device, which is controlled by a control device, supplies two types of ultrasonic waves, the first one being thermal waves that produce a predominantly thermal effect on the tissue being treated and the second one being cavitation waves that produce a predominantly cavitation effect on the tissue to be treated.

Abstract: Bearing assembly (11) for mounting a bearing journal (2) of a rotatable roll (1). The bearing journal (2) is supported by a spherical bearing element (2a) in a bearing housing (5). The bearing journal (2) is fixed in the direction of the longitudinal axis (L) of the bearing assembly (11) in the bearing housing (5). The bearing housing (5) is connected with the aid of axial guide elements to a base (10), which is fastened on a framework (15) or foundation (or on a swivel lever). The axial guide elements are guide rods (12a, 12b) which are parallel to the longitudinal axis (L) and which engage in the bearing housing (5) and in the base (10). The one guide rod (12b) is displaceable transversely to its axis, so that the bearing housing (5) can expand transversely to the longitudinal axis (L) relative to the base (10).

Abstract: A motorised drive device for a door leaf which has a door leaf shaft (6) coupled thereto, to which the drive shaft (26) of a drive motor unit (5) contained in a drive housing (25) is connected via a torque transmission device contained in a gear casing (2, 3), which has an input shaft (7) connected to the drive shaft (26) of the drive motor unit (5) and an output shaft (8) connected to the door leaf shaft (6) which, looking perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of these shafts (7, 8), is at a distance from the input shaft amounting to a multiple of the sum of the half-diameters of the intercoupled gear wheels arranged on these shafts. To reduce the torque-determined holding load for the drive unit (5), the drive casing (25) of the drive motor unit (5) is maintained fixed and secured (29, 30) to the transmission casing (2, 3) of the torque transmission device so as not to rotate in such a way that torques between the door leaf shaft (6) and the drive shaft (26) are exerted in the manner of a rigid lever.

Abstract: A drinking mug, especially for small children, handicapped and hospital patients, comprising a cup (1), a lid (3) and a suction tube (5), is configured in an airtight manner so that the only access to the inside of the mug is through the suction tube (5). Tightness is achieved by disposing the suction tube (5) on the inside of the lid (3) on a drinking spout (15), and by providing a sealing ring (29) in the joint between the lid (3) and the cup (1). Due to the airtight construction, when liquid is sucked up an underpressure is created inside the mug which subsequently empties the suction tube of liquid. Correspondingly, an attempt by the liquid to run out through the suction tube (5) when the mug is tipped over is counteracted by the siphon effect which results from the airtight construction.

Abstract: The channel resistance of a MOSFET is made independent of VS-VD by maintaining the ends of the gate electrode (24) adjacent the source (20) and drain (22) regions at an offset voltage with respect to the source and drain regions, respectively, and by maintaining the portions of the body regions adjacent to the source and drain regions at another offset voltage with respect to the source and drain regions, respectively. In this manner, VS-VD appears across the channel, across the gate, and across the body region beneath the channel. The resulting linear voltage drops along each of the three causes the channel-to-gate and channel-to-body potentials to be constant along the entire length of the channel, thereby avoiding variations in the number of carriers, mobility variations and body effect in the channel.

Abstract: We have discovered that growth hormones form ternary complexes with their receptors in which site 1 on the hormone first binds to one molecule of receptor and then hormone site 2 then binds to another molecule of receptor, thereby producing a 1:2 complex. We believe this phenomenon is shared by other ligands having similar conformational structure. Assays based on this phenomenon are useful for identifying ligand agonists and antagonists. Sites 1 and 2 are structurally identified to facilitate generation of amino acid sequence variants of ternary complex-forming ligands. Novel variants of growth hormone, prolactin placental lactogen and other related ligands are provided. As a result of our studies with the ternary complex we have determined that selected antibodies to the receptor for these ligands are capable of acting as ligand agonists or antagonists. Novel growth hormones and novel uses for anti-growth hormone receptor antibodies are described. Methods for inhibiting the growth of breast cancer cells are also described.
