Abstract: To re-establish the plant and animal life of stream upper courses, in particular conventional stream pipework in the area of overpasses, a device is proposed which is intended for inserting into the respective pipe and consists of a basic body like a cylinder shell (4), e.g. an elastic mat, which extends coaxially to the respective pipe and is equipped with stones (5) on its side facing the water course, the distribution and surface character of which stones (5), in combination with the surface character of the basic body, reproduce to the greatest extent the conditions of the natural course of a stream bed. By insertion of cylinder shells (4) of this type into the pipe, the pipework area is bridged and, despite the pipework, continuous development of natural living conditions making possible upstream migration of small life forms as well as the spread of plant life specific to the stream is promoted. In the case of larger pipe lengths, further cylinder shells can be linked via hooks (7) and eye rings (8) which are fastened to the end faces of the cylinder shell (4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: An electronic device (10) includes a package (16) having two posts (30) suitable for insertion in PCB holes. Package (16) presents a lengthwise molding plane (32) along which the upper portion (42) and bottom portion (44) of package (16) are mated during the molding process. Posts (30) are disposed substantially exclusively in bottom portion (44) so that posts (30) are asymmetric about lengthwise molding plane (32). Thus, even if a top mold (42a) and a bottom mold (44a) are misaligned there will be no effect on the dimensional tolerance of posts (30) and thus the tolerance of post (30) can be closely matched with a PCB hole (20) tolerance to insure a snug fit. Thus, device (10) is mounted edgewise on a PCB (18) by insertion of posts (30) into PCB holes (20) so that tips (24) of lead fingers (14) can be connected to PCB (18) by surfacing-mounting techniques or the like.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for the quantitative determination of disease-specific antigens in a patient's sample with preset volume or weight by analysis. There have repeatedly been problems with such methods in the prior art because the analytical sensitivity was frequently insufficient. The invention remedies this by subjecting the patient's sample initially to a freeze-concentration and only thereafter analysing it, and by calculating back the original volume or weight on the resulting measurement. It is possible according to the invention in this way to achieve an excellent improvement in sensitivity (cf. Tab. 1).

Abstract: The present invention relates to liquid dentifrices which contain particulate abrasive material, stably suspended in an aqueous vehicle with the aid of a polysaccharide gum as suspending agent. It has been found that high levels of the particulate abrasive material can be stably suspended with less polysaccharide gum than in the prior art, if a small amount of an alkalimetal bicarbonate is included in the dentifrices. This also significantly reduces the loss of available F⁻ in the dentifrice if a fluorine-containing anticaries agent such as sodium monofluorophosphate is included.

Abstract: A signal processor is described for sampling rate conversion of a digitally sampled analog signal, the signal processor comprising: means for generating an output sampled value for each output sampling instant, the output sampled value being equal to the input sampled value at the last input sampling instant if an input sampling instant has not occurred since the last output sampling instant and being calculated as an interpolation of input values at successive input sampling instants if an input sampling instant has occurred since the last output sampling instant. An virtual, analytic A/D-D/A conversion is employed using digital processing to convert from a given sampling rate to an arbitrary desired rate.

Abstract: Control circuitry for maintaining the magnitude of an RF signal from an RF signal amplifier at a predetermined level includes a detector (100) which is supplied with a signal indicative of the power level of the output from the amplifier and outputs a signal which is dependant upon the input signal. A detector (100) is provided with a negative feedback loop (200) which supplies a biasing voltage Vb to the input of the detector, whereby the biasing voltage Vb decreases if the magnitude of the signal (P) input and hence the output signal (Vr), increases, thus serving to decrease the output voltage (Vr), and vice versa. This has the advantage of increasing the dynamic range of the detector.

Abstract: The fastener (10), to be inserted into a receiving hole (12) in a panel (14), has a cylindrical body with a longitudinal axis (16) and a straight bore (20) through the body with an axis (22) that is inclined relative to the axis (16) of the body. In another type of fastener (110), the fastener (110) has a body formed of cylinders (114, 116) that are joined end-to-end and have axes (120, 122) that are inclined relative to each other. One cylinder (116) is a right cylinder. A straight bore (118) passes through both cylinders (114, 116) such that the bore axis (120) is aligned with the right cylinder (116). Generally, the axis (120) of the straight bore (118) is perpendicular to the panel surfaces (126, 128) and the axis (122) of the inclined cylinder (114) is inclined at between 5° and 60° relative to the bore axis (120). The axis of the receiving hole (124) is aligned with the axis (122) of the inclined cylinder (114). When the fastener (110) is inserted into the panel (112), the inclination of the receiving hole (124) cooperates with the fastener body to prevent rotation and provide an axial holding force when a fastener bolt is threaded into the fastener (110).
