Title: Device for bridging expansion joints in roadways, particularly in bridge decks
IPC: E01D19/06
Filed: 1983-05-20
Abstract: An arrangement for bridging expansion joints in carriageways, especially bridges. One or more parallel plates run at right-angles to the direction of the carriageway adjacent at the top to the surface of the carriageway. The plates are supported at the bottom on bars which run at right-angles to the expansion joint and transmit loads directly or indirectly into the edges of the joint adjacent thereto. For controlling the spacing of the plates, control cables are provided. The plates are connected to the cable runs of the control cables. The cable runs run parallel to the bars and are attached either to the load-transmitting bars themselves or to separate control bars.

IPC: A22C7/00
Filed: 1983-08-05
Abstract: The present specification discloses a method and appar­
atus for treating meat, especially bacon pieces. Convention­
ally bacon pieces are individually frozen and then compress­
ed, before slicing. This produces waste from the ends of the 
bacon pieces and also requires an amount of handling which 
reduces the temperature of the bacon pieces and thus 
impairs slicing unless the bacon piece is frozen to a great 
extent. However, such deep freezing impairs the quality of 
the bacon.  
     The present invention provides a method and apparatus 
wherein, if used to handle bacon, the bacon pieces are first 
compressed in a press (5) to attain a desired transverse 
cross-section. Then the compressed bacon pieces are passed 
through an elongate duct (1) which is refrigerated so that the 
bacon pieces are chilled or frozen to a limited extent before 
passing to the slicer (6). Thus handling is reduced and also 
by chilling and squaring off the ends of the bacon pieces, and 
freezing adjacent bacon pieces together, wastage during 
slicing is obviated.

Title: Subsea wellhead assembly
IPC: E21B33/035
Filed: 1983-08-17
Abstract: A subsea wellhead assembly for areas subject to iceberg scouring including an upper conductor 20 in a well bore 16 and a lower conductor 26 in the well bore with the upper end of the lower conductor being within the lower end of the upper conductor and connected thereto by a weak connection and the upper end of the lower conductor being below the maximum iceberg scour depth and means for connecting said conductors, said connecting means having sufficient strenght to withstand bending loads during drilling and being removable for installation of production equipment. Additionally production equipment in the well bore includes a block valve 40 supported within the second conductor and a production string 42 extending upward from the block valve 40 and having a weak point within the upper end of the second conductor whereby the well control is not lost by deep iceberg scouring since the production control equipment is within the second conductor which is not damaged by the scouring and the production equipment extending thereabove fails without damage to the lower control equipment of loss of the well.

Abstract: An introducing catheter (10) for use in placing a large 
guidewire (48) after a small guidewire (46) is in position. The 
catheter has a tapered distal tip (18), decreased lumen size 
at the distal end, a side port (20) and a ramp (26) disposed 
within the tube at the distal end of the side port. The ramp

Title: Immunochemical test process for hapteus and proteins
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 1985-09-11
Abstract: This invention describes a process for immuno-chemical quantitative determination of immunologically active substances. The method involves a first incubation of a sample containing the active substance with a labelled binder, which contains an antibody or antibody fragment. After complexing has taken place, solid phase bound active substance identical to the substance being quantitatively determined is added. The solid phase bound substance binds with free binder, and the solid and liquid phases are separated. A second antibody which is specific either to antibody or the solid phase antibody-substance complex is then added to the liquid phase. This second antibody is non cross-reactive with individual complex components. The amount of labelled first antibody bound to second antibody is then determined.

IPC: H01H35/14
Filed: 1985-08-09
Abstract: A vibration sensitive switch has a pair of spaced apart 
parallel contacts (4) housed in a switch body (1,2,3) and a 
movably supported activated mass (5) inside a chamber (6) 
in the body. The mass (5) is supported by contact bridging 
means in the form of a pair of bars (14, 16) secured in the 
mass and located between the two contacts (4) with the 
centre of gravity (Cg) of the mass (5) spaced from the points 
of contact between the contacts (4) and the bars so that bars 
are urged against the contacts (4) by a lever action as a result 
of the gravitational force acting on the mass (5). The forces 
at the contact points are thus greater than that which would 
be obtained by simply allowing the mass to rest on the 
contacts, which enables a relatively small mass to be used 
having a greater sensitivity to high frequency vibrations.

Abstract: A coating comprising aluminum and at least one of the 
transition metals of the groups IVB, VB and VIB are prepared 
comprising a unique microstructure which may be a solid 
solution of the transition metal in an aluminide matrix or a 
pseudo solid solution of the transition metal in an aluminum 
matrix. By means of special processes a super fine distribu­
tion of the transition metal within the matrix may be obtained 
in the form of a metastable pseudo solid solution even though 
thermodynamic considerations disfavour such fine distribu­
tions. The coating may, with advantage, be applied to 
superalloys and be heat treated together with the substrate 
in order to form a stable aluminide coating comprising tran­
sition metal dispersions in an aluminide matrix. One of the 
preferred manufacturing processes of such coatings is the 
electrodeposition thereof from non-aqueous electrolytes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for the intermittent or continuous low-emission preparation of a bituminous mixture 5 by the use of a usually high proportion of granular asphalt 2 from broken-up or cut-off road covering layers which are supplemented by heated additives 1, fillers 3 and bitumen 4 in a mixer 8 to form a recycled composite material 5, a temperature synchronisation of the individual fractions being necessary. The additives 1 are usually heated in a drum dryer fired in counterflow and the broken granulate in a drum dryer fired in co-flow. The dwell time of the additives and the granulates is determined by an appropriate adjustment of the drum inclination. <IMAGE>

Title: Optical disc and disc drive apparatus for writing/reading data into/from the disc
IPC: G11B7/007
Filed: 1987-01-29
Abstract: A read only type optical disc, and disc drive apparatus for reading/additionally writing data into the disc. The disc has a recording material (7) formed in all of the tracks (6) by which data can be additionally recorded on the disc (l). This optical disc has a plurality of sectors (S0 - Sn) forming a data read-only area (4) and a write/read area (3). Each area has track sectors (S0 - Sn) each having a sector identifier portion (ID) in which address information is recorded and a data field portion (DF) to record data. Datafield identification flags (F1, F2) indicative of the read-only area (4) and the write/read area (3) are recorded in the respective identifier portions. On reading or writing this optical disc, the data field identification flag is detected to identify (l6, 26, 28) the kind of related area i.e., read-only area or write/read area. Thus, it is possible to avoid (l8 - 22; 28, 34) erroneous recording of data into the read-only area. Upon reading operation, waveform equalization and binary-clipping level of reproduction signals can be well controlled (26, 37, 39). The gain of the servo loop can be switched (53, 54). The track searching operation can be stably performed (58 - 63). The data reading and data writing into the data write/read area can be improved.
