Abstract: A main drive shaft of a power loom reaches the rated operating rpm of the loom by the time of the first beat-up of the reed, thus avoiding start-up faults in the fabric. A flywheel mass is accelerated to a start-up rpm that is higher than the rated operating rpm before it is coupled with the main drive shaft. The start-up rpm is determined automatically and iteratively, with ever-increasing accuracy in successive starts of the loom. When the main drive shaft is coupled to the flywheel mass, the flywheel mass rpm decreases simultaneously as the main drive shaft rpm increases from standstill to the operating rpm. The actual main drive shaft rpm is measured at least at the time of the first beat-up and any deviation from the rated operating rpm is evaluated by the loom control. After each start-up, a new data set is generated based on the measured values and is used to calculate an updated or modified flywheel start-up rpm in the next start-up operation so that the main drive shaft more accurately reaches at least the rated operating rpm by the time of the first beat-up of the reed.

Abstract: A flywheel energy conversion device provides highly efficient conversion between kinetic and electrical energy. The flywheel produces increased output by providing armature coils in an air gap formed about the flywheel (both radial and axial embodiments are described). In preferred embodiments, field coils of a magnetic circuit are energized with DC drive current that creates homopolar flux within a rotating solid rotor having teeth cut from a flat disk. The total reluctance of the magnetic circuit and total flux remain substantially constant as the rotor rotates. The flux may travel radially outward and exit the flat disk through the teeth passing across an armature air gap. Airgap armature coils are preferably utilized in which the changing flux density (due to the rotating teeth) induces an output voltage in the coils. The flux is diffused before returning to the rotor in one of several ways such that core losses are effectively reduced, thereby enabling the flywheel to operate efficiently at high frequencies.

Abstract: A method and device for producing an X-ray pixel detector, for X-ray photons, the detector presenting high efficiency combined with high resolution for obtaining a high image quality detector while at the same time minimizing the X-ray dose used. The application is particularly important whenever the X-ray photon absorption distance is much longer than the required pixel size. The arrangement presents a structure based on light-guiding of secondarily produced photons within a scintillating pixel detector in conjuction with, a CCD or a CMOS pixel detector. The structure presents a matrix (8) having deep pores (10) fabricated by high-aspect ratio silicon etching techniques producing very thin walls and with a pore spacing less or equal to the size of a pixel (2) of the image detector used. The pore matrix is subsequently filled by melting a scintillating material into the pores such that, in each pore, a single scintillating block is formed. The silicon matrix (8) may further utilize a reflective layer to increase light guiding down to the image detector chip.

Abstract: The inventive device comprises a seat which is situated in the device housing and which is provided for the insertion of an identification provider. A holding element located inside the seat engages with a lateral indentation of the identification provider. The opening of the seat is normally closed by a spring-loaded cover element. In order to create a functionally reliable and economic design, the invention provides that the cover element is configured as a pivotal flap which can pivot from the identification provider out of an outwardly pivoted position covering the opening of the seat and into an inwardly pivoted position inside the seat. A projection is provided on the outer side of the flap and functions as a holding element for the identification provider. A recess is arranged next to the seat for the inward pivotal movement of the flap. During insertion and removal of the information provider, the projection of the flap runs along the contour of the information provider and temporarily pivots the flap further back into an overturned position. A profiled control surface is transferred into an effective blocking position which limits the space for the inwardly pivoted position of the flap thus ensuring the engagement of the projection of the flap inside the indentation of the identification provider.

Abstract: Dans les entreprises de restauration, la plonge manuelle est généralement effectuée dans un évier à plusieurs compartiments. Dans un bassin la vaisselle est mise en contact avec une solution aqueuse d'un agent tensioactif. La vaisselle est rincée dans un autre bassin, puis désinfectée dans un troisième bassin au moyen d'une solution désinfectante. Des décolorants à base d'hypochlorite fortement oxydant, permettent, lorsque le pH est ajusté à une valeur convenable, de maintenir une capacité sensiblement désinfectante tout en ne décolorant pas des colorants sensibles à l'oxydation. Dans le procédé de l'invention, la solution désinfectante, ajustée à un pH inférieur à environ 7, contenant un colorant, permet de garder une coloration stable durant une période supérieure à la durée requise pour épuiser 90 % ou plus d'ion OCl-1 en solution. Il en résulte une indication satisfaisante de la présence de désinfectant actif sur la base de la couleur de la solution désinfectante.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur une étude sur la modulation du niveau d'ascorbate chez des souris capables de synthétiser de novo l'ascorbate. Lorsqu'on administre à des souris de l'ascorbate exogène ou son précurseur physiologique, le L-gulono-gamma-lactone, le niveau de l'ascorbate du plasma s'élève sensiblement, mais revient immédiatement aux niveaux de base. Par comparaison, l'administration d'ascorbate oxydase provoque un abaissement rapide du niveau de l'ascorbate du plasma,suivi d'un retour immédiat au niveau de départ. Ces résultats soulignent les difficultés rencontrées pour moduler le niveau d'ascorbate du plasma chez l'animal. Cependant, on a pu prolonger la durée de circulation de l'ascorbate oxydase exogène par des modifications chimiques à l'aide de méthoxypolyéthylèneglycol. L'enzyme modifiée conserve sa pleine activité et assure une diminution remarquablement longue de l'ascorbate du plasma par rapport à l'enzyme naturelle. L'étude suggère que l'ascorbate oxydase chimiquement modifiée peut avoir de nombreuses utilisation dans l'étude de l'ascorbate chez l'animal, puisqu'elle diminue le niveau d'ascorbate du plasma même chez l'animal synthétisant l'ascorbate et en l'absence de régime. Cette enzyme devrait prouver son utilité dans la régulation des tumeurs puisque les systèmes de tumeurs de l'homme et de la souris sont sensibles aux variations du niveau d'ascorbate.

Abstract: A method/assay for detecting various aggregated forms of amyloid peptide using amyloid-specific spectroscopic probes, such as Congo red and related analogs, is described. Such an assay could be used to assess the aggregation state of the peptide in the presence of other potential inhibitors of fibrillogenesis, providing a useful model by which to test inhibitors of aggregation in in vitro models. Results of such an assay can be useful in determining the stage at which the process of aggregation can be intervened to reduce the toxicity of amyloid peptide to neuronal cells. In specific examples, circular dichroism, UV absorption, and fluorescence spectroscopy are each used to evaluate the aggregation form of beta-amyloid peptide.
