Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP93/00981 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 17, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 17, 1995 PCT Filed Apr. 22, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/22675 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 11, 1993A method is revealed for the quantitative determination of the proportion of the free form of a thyroid hormone ligand in a sample of a biological fluid in which the ligand is present partly in the free form and also partly in a form in which it is bound to physiological binding proteins. In the first step, a ligand derivative of the thyroid hormone with an immunoglobulin, a labelled specific binder, and a test tube whose walls are coated with an excess of a protein material are provided. In the second step, a sample of the biological fluid containing an unknown amount of the free thyroid hormone ligand, a solution containing a known amount of the ligand derivative, and a solution containing a known, less than stoichiometric amount of the labelled specific binder are added to the test tube to form a liquid reaction mixture. In the third step, the reaction mixture is incubated to allow the free thyroid hormone ligand and the ligand derivative in the liquid reaction mixture to compete for the binding sites of the labelled specific binder, and to allow, in a concomitant slower reaction, the binding of the immunoglobulin part of the ligand derivative to the excess of the protein material on the walls of the test tube. In the fourth step, the remaining liquid reaction mixture is removed from the test tube. In the final steps, the amount of labelled specific binder bound to the walls of the test tube is determined and the amount of the free thyroid hormone ligand calculated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for the continous galvanisation of steel strip, with a pair of blow-off nozzles downstream of at least a guide roller (5) which can be fed with a blow-off medium, especially compressed air, between the nozzle bodies (2) of which the strip (1) is guided at a distance from the nozzle slots extending transversely to the direction of travel of the strip. In order to improve the uniformity of the coating, in a first embodiment of the invention there is allocated to one of the two nozzle bodies (2) an optical measuring instrument (4) to detect the distance between the nozzle slot (3) and the surface of the metal strip, the output signal of which can be fed to the adjusting device for the guide roller (5) and/or that for the nozzle body (2) in such a way that the distance between the nozzle slot (3) and the surface of the metal strip can take a predetermined value. In a second embodiment of the invention, the optical measuring instrument (4, 4a, 4b) can be moved parallel to the nozzle slot covering at least the region of an edge (K) of the metal strip and the opposite nozzle body (2) has a reflector (18) on which the optical axis (a) of the measuring instrument (4b, 4) is directed in its position outside the edge (K) of the metal strip.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to an instrument for measuring the viscoelastic properties of rubber and like materials comprising two opposed dies, (11) and (12), each die having a die housing (13), (14), the dies and housings being moveable between an open position and a closed position, and wherein: a) each die is separated from its housing by a substantially uniform circumferential gap (20, (21) such that the die is rotatable relative to its housing, and one die is rotatable relative to the other, b) in the closed position, the two dies define between them a cavity (15) for holding under pressure a sample of material to be tested, (c) the design of the dies and housings is such that during movement from the open position to the closed position, a sample of test material located between the dies (11), (12) is compressed so that excess material is extruded radially from between the dies, across the gap (20), (21) between 15 each die and its housing and through a narrowing space (16) separating the housings until the two housings (13), (14) reach their closed position, in which position the said space (16) is sealed. In prior art instruments, at least one annular seal (5) of heat-resistant elastomeric material is positioned between each die (1), (2) and its housing (3), (4) to ensure that a sample of material in the die cavity (6) is maintained under pressure during a test. In the instrument of the present invention, no such seal is required. The radial dimension of the gap (20), (21) between each die and its housing is significantly less than in prior art instruments, and sheets of film (18), (19) of heat and distortion-resistant material are used to bridge the gaps (20), (21).

Abstract: The yarn pieces to be joined are stretched between the two pairs of suction tubes (28, 29; 30, 31) and untwisted by being wound about spindles (20, 21). Hot compressed air fed along the surface of two blocks (32, 33) adjacent to the untwisted yarn portions remove free fibers and distribute the fiber tufts in the base of a channel formed in said blocks (32, 33). Said tufts are retained in the base of the channel by an electrostatic field formed with the aid of conductors (46) and the generator (GE). The blocks are then rotated about the rotation shafts (4, 5) until the channel edges are in contact with each other. Air is fed perpendicularly to the plane containing the fiber tufts in proximity to their respective ends in order to cause the fibers of the two tufts to interpenetrate, the spindles (20, 21) then being driven in the reverse direction in order to twist the fiber tufts and to disengage the yarn.

Abstract: A tape cassette has one or more manually settable slider elements that are detected to prevent erroneous erasure of information recorded on the cassette. The or each slider (50) slides in a through hole (31) in the cassette case (2, 3) and includes stops (53a, 53b) that limit the travel of the slider element (50) by co-operating with protrusions or shoulders that are formed by the respective half cases (2, 3) making up the cassette case. The slider element (50) also includes a click-stop protrusion (51) that co-operates with a protrusion (32) in the through hole (31) that is formed in only one of the two half-cases (2, 3). The slider element (50) further includes a through slot (55) that permits deformation of the slider element (50) as the click-stop protrusion (51) goes over the protrusion (32) in the through-hole (31), thereby requiring less force to move the element. The stops (53a, 53b) can be formed by two spaced apart protrusions that also permit deformation of the slide element as the click-stop protrusion (51) travels past the protrusion (32) in the through-hole (31). <IMAGE>

IPC: B29C45/16
Filed: 1988-10-08
Abstract: A method is proposed of injection moulding hollow formed parts from thermoplastic resins in which first of all an amount of the molten resin sufficient for forming the part is forced into the injection mould. Then, a flowable medium, in particular gas, is forced into the injection mould and/or the thermoplastic resin at a pressure which distributes the resin compound evenly over the surface of the mould cavity, forming a hollow article. Thereafter, the hollow article is cooled in the injection mould whilst kept under the pressure of the medium. Finally, the hollow article is relieved of the pressure of the medium and then the formed part is released and removed from the injection mould. What is essential here is that the pressure of the medium within the injection mould, or on the resin compound distributed over the surface of the mould cavity, is varied at least for a time during its cooling, to be precise by closed-loop and/or open-loop control according to a pressure profile specified for the respective formed part and/or resin material.

Abstract: The magnetic drive of an electromagnetic contactor comprises two spaced coils (10, 11) having a coaxial bore in which an armature (14) is mounted for reciprocal movement between two end positions. A control slider (21) is disposed between the coils (10, 11) with its two sides forming stops for the armature (14). When the armature (14) is changed over from one to the other end position, the slider is also changed over and limits in the mid-position the return movement of the armature (14) from the respective end position. In a contactor designed for tri-stable operation, undesired movement of the armature beyond the mid-position is avoided, which could otherwise lead to an inadvertent change-over of the armature (14) to the other end position. If the contactor is designed for monostable mid-position operation, oscillation of the armature (14) about the mid-position is prevented, so that this mid-position is stabilized.
