Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé servant à commander un dispositif de gravage utilisé pour graver des formes d'impression, au moyen d'un burin de gravage (2) commandé par un système d'entraînement. A partir de données de gravage, des valeurs exigées de profondeur de gravage pour les godets et des valeurs de signal de gravage sont produites comme signal de commande pour le système d'entraînement (4, 5). Les courses de travail du burin de gravage (2) et les écarts (A) entre la forme d'impression (3) et le burin de gravage (2) sont mesurés, et des valeurs réelles de profondeur de gravage sont déterminées à partir des différences et comparées avec les valeurs exigées de profondeur de gravage. Le signal de commande destiné au système d'entraînement (4, 5) est émis chaque fois que le gravage d'un godet commence et est interrompu lorsque la profondeur de gravage est atteinte, à la fin du gravage du godet. En outre, des valeurs exigées de force d'impression et des valeurs exigées de force de traction sont déterminées à partir des données de gravage et comparées avec les valeurs réelles de la force de pression s'exerçant sur le burin de gravage (2) et avec les valeurs réelles de la force de traction s'exerçant sur l'élément de rappel (9) du burin de gravage (2). Les dépassements des valeurs exigées sont indiqués. Afin qu'il soit tenu compte des différentes duretés du matériau de la forme d'impression (3), le signal de commande est corrigé en fonction de la mesure de la force de pression et/ou de traction.

Le système d'admission comprend un collecteur d'admission avec une chambre (22) en communication avec l'atmosphère par l'intermédiaire d'un étrangleur principal (24) et ayant une pluralité de branches (20) allant chacune de la chambre (22) à un port d'admission (14) d'un cylindre respectif du moteur. Plusieurs conduites d'emmagasinage (30) sont connectées chacune parallèlement à une branche respective (20) du collecteur d'admission, chaque conduite d'emmagasinage (30) étant reliée à une extrémité (34) à la chambre (22) et à l'autre extrémité (32) au port d'admission associé (14). Plusieurs conduites (36) de recirculation des gaz d'échappement sont prévues pour amener les gaz d'échappement depuis le système d'échappement (40) du moteur, à un point situé le long de la conduite d'emmagasinage (30). La position le long de la conduite d'emmagasinage (30) du point de raccordement avec la conduite (36) de recirculation est choisie pour que, quand la soupape d'admission associée (12) est fermée, les gaz d'échappement soient aspirés par l'effet de la dépression dans le collecteur d'admission uniquement dans la conduite d'emmagasinage (30) et pour que, quand la soupape d'admission associée (12) est ensuite ouverte, l'air de la branche (20) du collecteur d'admission et les gaz d'échappement emmagasinés dans la conduite d'emmagasinage (30), entrent dans le cylindre comme des flux parallèles pour former dans le cylindre des régions stratifiées d'air et de gaz d'échappement. Au lieu de stratifier les gaz d'échappement, on peut, selon une variante de l'invention, stratifier les gaz provenant de l'alimentation en carburant vaporisé.

Abstract: Subject of this invention is a process for the chemical synthesis of polynucleotides having totally or partially random sequences, based on the utilization, as synthesis monomer units for the random sequence part, or presynthesized mononucleotides and dinucleotides. Said synthesis is carried out on separate supports, so that on each of those supports is alternated at least one reaction cycle wherein a mixture of said dinucleotides is bound, with at least one reaction cycle wherein a mononucleotide is bound, and that in a preferred embodiment at the end of the n cycles required for a codon synthesis, the supports are mixed and then redivided into one or more reaction containers. The resulting polynucleotides are such that, for the random sequence part, each trinucleotide unit is fit to match only a limited number of codons, predefined for each unity in number and sequence, and the genetic code degeneracy effects can thus be eliminated. FIG. 1 shows the chemical structure of the dinucleotides utilized as monomer units for the synthesis of codons forming the final sequence.
