Abstract: A vertically oriented thermal processor for processing batches of semiconductor wafers held within a processing chamber. The processing chamber is contained within a processing vessel. A furnace liner surrounds the processing vessel in spaced relationship. A flow path for cooling fluid is supplied between the furnace liner and an inner wall of the furnace heater. The flow occurs through end and base segments forming part of the furnace heating enclosure. The end and base segments have interior ports which communicate with a manifold chamber. The manifold chamber is advantageously divided into inner and outer chambers by shields which reflect radiant heat. The inner and outer manifold chambers are connected by manifold connecting passages formed between the shields.

Title: Procede de preparation de produits absorbant l'eau par intramolecularite
Inventor: VALKANAS GEORGE N
IPC: C08F8/00
Filed: 1998-10-23
Granted: 2004-09-29
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé de réticulation de polymères et copolymères de polystyrène en vue de la formation de matériaux macroplegmatiques d'un Mc allant de 30 000 à 50 000. Lesdits matériaux se présentent sous forme de gel insoluble extrudé en morceaux de 3 à 5 cm soumis à une sulfonation: par de l'acide sulfurique dense, par de l'acide oléosulfurique, par du trioxyde de soufre, et par de l'acide chlorosulfonique, puis à l'introduction de groupes sulfoniques à haute densité, à l'introduction d'un groupe nitrique, et à l'introduction d'un groupe carboxylique avec le copolymère de styrène-acrylonitrille. Le groupe chlorosulphonique favorise la sulfonation et la réticulation avec formation de liaisons avec le groupe sulfone lequel est contrôlé par une adjonction de 10 à 20 % d'acide acétique comme régulateur. On obtient ainsi un volume insoluble de gel qui après élimination du solvant et mûrissement pendant 4 à 7 heures est traité à l'éthanol ou au propanol pour en extraire l'acide chlorosulfonique n'ayant pas réagi qui est neutralisé par de la soude ou de la potasse, ledit gel étant alors extrudé en morceaux de 3 à 5 cm. Après neutralisation et réduction de la teneur en eau à 10 %, les produits sont désodorisés à 160 °C sous vide, ce qui donne des matériaux dont les molécules absorbent l'eau jusqu'à 300 fois leur poids. En raison de leur teneur de 72, 75 % en substances minérales, ils présentent une grande stabilité dans les sols, ne se dégradent pas, et peuvent resservir indéfiniment pour l'absorption/libération d'eau. Ils constituent donc des promoteurs de fertilité pour tout type de sol où ils favorisent la croissance de l'herbe, la croissance des arbres et des forêts, et la maturation précoce des plantes alimentaires.

Abstract: A method for increasing the target-specific toxicity of a drug is effected by pretargeting an enzyme to a mammalian target site, and then administering a cytotoxic drug known to act at the target site, or a prodrug form thereof which is converted to the drug in situ, which drug is also detoxified to form an intermediate of lower toxicity using said mammal's ordinary metabolic processes, whereby the detoxified intermediate is reconverted to its more toxic form by the pretargeted enzyme and thus has enhanced cytotoxicity at the target site. Further enhancement can be achieved by pretargeting an enzyme which converts the prodrug to the cytotoxic drug at the target site. Kits for use with the method also are provided. The method and kits permit lower doses of cytotoxic agents, maximize target site activity and minimize systemic side effects.

Abstract: A fuel injector includes a spool control valve, a plunger which moves in a fuel pressure chamber between retracted and full stroke positions. The fuel injector may include a spill port for spilling fuel from the fuel pressure chamber, the spill port being open at the start and closed by the translating motion of the plunger to delay the start of injection. The fuel injector chamber may further include a control port which is closed at the start of plunger motion and is opened by the plunger to connect the pressure chamber to a needle back chamber to bias the needle valve closed. The needle back chamber becomes isolated from the pressure chamber by further movement of the plunger and includes a pressure control passage to allow the pressure therein to decay upon control port closure, thereby effecting split injection or rate shaping.

Title: Anti-heel and anti-capsize device acting in a manner autonomous from the action of the crew for sailing boats with one or more hulls
Inventor: IMMORDINO PIETRO
IPC: B23B/
Filed: 1995-06-21
Granted: 1997-10-31
Abstract: In general, sailing boats are subject to heeling as a result of the action of the wind on the sails. The purpose of the invention is to reduce or cancel the heeling of the boat (or of its main hull, in the case of multi-hulled boats); to obtain this result, the relative positions of the hull (or hulls), rigging and means for countering the heeling (countering means made up, for example, by the ballasted bulb keel or by the side hulls in the case of a single-hulled vessel of a multi-hulled vessel) are varied. The above-mentioned variations of the relative positions depend on the action of the wind on the sails and can be independent from the action of the crew. The effect of application of the invention is to increase the conditions of comfort and safety of the boat. <IMAGE>
