Patent DE-69910067-D1 (DE)

Abstract: A method and apparatus for preparing glass beads utilizes an equation solving for the relaxation time of molten glass filaments, which is the elapsed time from when a molten stream breaks up as a result of force imparted on the stream until reaching the relaxation point, at which a maximum percentage of filaments have formed round beads. The equation for relaxation time is  tau =(d• mu )/ sigma , wherein  tau  is the relaxation time; d is the diameter of the formed round beads;  mu  is the viscosity of the filaments during the relaxation time; and  sigma  is the surface tension of the filaments during the relaxation time. The system for preparing glass beads is configured based on this equation by selecting certain parameters such that the relaxation point is achieved just when the round beads are exiting a heated region of the system and entering a cooling region, for example, the atmosphere. These parameters include the degree of heat applied both to melt the glass raw materials and to sustain the heated region, the length of the heated region, the force applied to the stream, and the composition of the molten glass. Typically, when designing a new system, all other parameters except for the length of the heated region are fixed, and the length is determined from the above equation. On the other hand, after a system is in place, the length of the heated region is usually fixed, and the force applied to the stream is determined based on the other parameters. In this way, a relatively high fraction of round beads are formed, even when relatively small beads are desired.

Abstract: In order to remove a component from solid particle material by extraction, use is made of a column with one or more tubes which extend between the ends of the column, at least one filter being fitted in the wall of each tube. The particle material is fed in at a first end of the column and, forced by hydraulic pressure, moves along the abovementioned tubes to scraping means fitted at the second end of the column. Extraction liquid is fed into the column at the abovementioned second end and flows in countercurrent to the particle material in the direction of the abovementioned first end of the column. Extraction liquid with component from the particle material dissolved in said extraction liquid passes by way of the above mentioned filters into the abovementioned tubes and flows in countercurrent to the particle material to an outlet at the abovementioned first end. The particle material is scraped off at the abovementioned second end by the scraping means.

Abstract: An esophageal prosthesis (10) for preventing reflux of gastric fluids through the esophagus. The esophageal prosthesis process includes a tubular frame (11) with a sleeve (13) disposed around and longitudinally along the tubular frame as well as extending from the distal end (14) of the frame. The lower portion (28) of the sleeve has a readily collapsible lumen (15) that forms a one-way valve for preventing the reflux of gastric fluids in an antegrade manner through the esophagus. Fluids however readily flow through the sleeve in a antegrade direction. In response to a pressure build up in the stomach of a patient wanting to belch or vomit, the lower portion of the sleeve inverts through the passage (12) of the tubular frame, thereby relieving the pressure build up or voiding the patient's stomach. The tubular frame includes a plurality (19) of self-expanding zig-zag wire stents (20, 21, and 23) that maintain the patency of the esophagus and, in particular, the lower esophageal sphincter and any tumor that is causing stricture of the esophagus.

Abstract: The invention relates primarily to a process for making a cartridge for dispensing flowable material such as liquids, solutions, dispersions, suspensions, gels and pastes, while maintaining the sterility and integrity of the flowable material. The process includes molding a housing (12) of a rigid and inert material, the housing having an outlet port (58). Further, a delivery block (30) is molded with at least two asymmetrical components to give a parting line on the delivery block and an internal channel (34, 40, 42) connecting an inlet (32) and outlets (36, 38). The next step in the process is the molding of an elastomeric sheath (44), the sheath having two asymmetrical components to give a parting line on the sheath. The sheath is placed over the delivery block to envelope the delivery block and to cover the outlet of the delivery block and then the sheath covered delivery block is placed in the housing so that in use an outlet valve (56) of the sheath directs the flowable material through the housing outlet port (58). The sheath and the delivery block have contact surfaces in contact with each other but the parting lines of both the delivery block and the sheath are on non-contact surfaces so that the parting lines are away from any smooth and sealing surfaces to ensure that in use the flowable material is not contaminated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for detecting a break occurred in an optical link system and quickly and accurately locating the position of such a break. The present invention provides for the use of an alarm indication signal (AIS) of the SDH regeneration section in a non compliant interface of the optical transport network. The basic idea consists in extending the application of the Alarm Indication Signal to the regeneration section of the SDH link layer. With the introduction of the Optical Layer, as lower layer in the Transport network, the event of the break in a cable as a fault condition in the Regeneration Section of an SDH network is replaced by the cable break event in the transmission section of an optical network. The tributary of the WDM terminal will construct an SDH-compliant Alarm Indication Signal as a result of the break in a fiber or of the reception of a lower or server layer fault signal. As a result, the SDH network manager will not be led in error as to the fault location. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Antibodies to two new epitopes on the HCV envelope proteins were identified which allow routine detection of native HCV envelope antigens, in tissue or cells derived from the host. The new epitopes are: the E1 region aa 307-326 and the N-terminal hyper variable region of E2 aa 395-415. Surprisingly, we characterized an antibody which reacts with various sequences of the hypervariabie domain of E2. Specific monoclonal antibodies directed against these epitopes and allowing routine detection of viral antigen are described.

Abstract: An engine capable of use with multiple different types of fuels including gasoline and alcohol based flues and heavy fuels such as diesel fuel, JP5, JP8, Jet A and kerosene based fuels. The engine includes a main cylinder having a compression chamber at one end and a piston that is movable along the length of the cylinder and which connects to a crankshaft for the engine. A fuel delivery system delivers a combustible mixture of fuel and air through a fuel delivery valve into the combustion chamber at a sonic velocity of flow such that the fuel is substantially atomized into the air of the combustible mixture delivered to the combustion chamber. The combustible mixture is ignited by an igniter within the combustion chamber to urge the piston along the cylinder for driving the crankshaft of the engine.
