Abstract: In a method for monitoring haemodiafiltration, an initial test is conducted on an ultrafiltrate pump (40) on the one hand and on a balance (58) on the other hand, using a monitoring device (74). In this test, a certain quantity of ultrafiltrate is conveyed from the ultrafiltrate pump (40) onto the balance (58), and the result of weighing is transmitted to the monitoring device (74). At the same time, the number of cycles produced by the ultrafiltrate pump (40) is transmitted to the monitoring device (74), which calculates the quantity conveyed, from the known pumping volume of the ultrafiltrate pump (40), and compares the calculated result with the result of weighing. Only if the two values coincide is the HDF machine approved. After the start of haemodiafiltration, the current result of weighing is on each occasion compared with the calculated result, which is calculated by the monitoring device (74) from QUF, QSub and T (quantity of ultrafiltrate to be converted and quantity of substituate, and treatment time) for the current point in time. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention is concerned with a method of manufacturing badges and insignia, for example of the type worn by policemen and army personnel. 
     The method comprises extruding metal, preferably aluminium, to form a channel-shaped section (5). The section has a flat planar surface portion (6) and a pair of spaced parallel flanges (7) projecting rearwardly from the rear face of the surface portion and at right angles to the face. The extruded section is passed through a punching machining machine, and side-acting punches remove portions of the metal forming the flanges (7) to form lugs (3). A badge is formed in the planar surface portion (6) of the section (5), and the completed badge is severed from the remainder of the extrusion. The invention also includes a badge made by the method which includes fastening lugs (3) projecting from the reverse of the badge and formed integrally with the badge by extrusion.

Abstract: A phase-locked loop (PLL) (10) frequency synthesizer having an analog, out-of-band component path and a digital, in-band component path to provide frequency modulation (FM) of the synthesized output signal (F out ) is described. The in-band FM component is octave scaled by an analog scaling means (43) and coupled to an analog-to-digital converter (21) to provide a digital number to be decade added to the PLL divide number to change the PLL frequency in response to the in-band FM signal. The out-of-band FM component is also scaled and applied to a loop summing node (19) and summed with the PLL error signal to vary the PLL frequency. The scaling in both the in-band component path (43,21,46,45,47,49) and out-of-band component path (32,31,33,19) is equalized to provide a flat frequency response. Additional, the in-band component is scaled to allow use of the analog-to-digital converter (21) over its maximum range to maintain a high signal-to-­noise ratio.

Abstract: The invention provides a thermodynamically stable fluid system for use in combination with a solid oxidizer to provide an explosive composition. The fluid system comprises 1-70% by weight of water, 5-20% by weight of a surfactant, 0-35% by weight of a cosurfactant, and 5-85% by weight of an organic oil. Any droplet formation within the system has diameter or a thickness of less than or equal to about 0.1 microns. In a preferred embodiment, the fluid system is a microemulsion. When the fluid system is combined with a solid oxidizer, an explosive composition is formed, and the resulting explosive composition has a density greater than ANFO under similar conditions.. The fluid system acts to increase the density of the oxidizer.

Abstract: The invention relates to an optical transducer for position or motion. The transducer comprises a light source (10), two optical measuring screens (21 and 22) and a light receiver. The measuring screens are arranged to enter dif­ferent positions relative to one another in the beam path be­tween light source and light receiver. Each measuring screen has first portions forwarding light from the light source to the light receiver and second portions not forwarding light from the light source to the light receiver. The measuring screens have different pitches and the width of the second portions of each measuring screen is substantially larger than the width of the first portions of the second measuring screen. When the measuring screens are in a first position re­lative to one another the light receiver can receive light from the light source via at least two first portions in each measuring screen at the same time. When the measuring screens are in a second position relative to one another the second portions shield the light receiver completely from the light of the light source.

Abstract: A treatment chamber holds powder to be granulated by sprayed liq. while fluidised by air from a wind-chamber below a sieve base preventing leakage of solids. Below the sieve is a circular plate rotatable on a central holow shaft with internal feed lines from base terminals for pressurised air and the granulating liq. Radial slots in the plate define entrance zones for upwardly directed air-streams controlled by a spring-loaded valve. The sieve-base has vertical guide fins, of which every second fin reaches the rotor centre. The combined jets of liq. and air extend from elongated arms with variable pitch projecting radially from the hollow shaft, ink nozzles whose spacing decreases towards the outer chamber wall to aid uniform distribution The fins carry a circular support track for rollers mounted on the rotor.

Abstract: In a process for obtaining juice, especially apple juice, from a fruit mash obtained by crushing, the juice extraction and the removal of pectin are to take place free of enzymatic or biochemical treatment stages and in a continuous manner. It is proposed for this purpose that the liquid phase obtained in a continuous centrifugation process from the mash, and the foam constituents which separate out of this phase during the centrifugation, bind the pectin constituents and float on the liquid phase are separated mechanically, for example by a shaken screen, from one another, it being necessary for this procedure and any subsequent separation procedures, such as, for example, the removal of residual cellulose fibres from the liquid phase in a centrifugal decanter, to be complete before reaction of the pectin with oxygen starts.

Abstract: Construction methods and clip apparatus for joining or repairing wall or ceiling panels such as sheet rock, gypsum boards, plywood, or other generally planar wall panels. The clip is enables permanent edgewise joining of wallboard panels, ceiling panels, or the like at any desired position along the length of the wall frame or ceiling framework independent of framing back- up studs or joists. A plurality of metallic clips unite to provide an edgewise mechanical bond between adjacent panel edges by creating an artificial backing in wall regions having no studs or support columns. A preferred clip comprises a generally planar, elongated body having a pair of parallel reinforcement grooves (68,69), and the body is preferably stamped from metal stock and selectively perforated. A pair of integral, spaced apart, prong-like spring tab structures (70) formed on opposite sides of the clip body initially grasp the edges of a panel. Each spring tab (70) includes an integral, upwardly extending vertical portion (73) disposed substantially perpendicularly to the body and an integral, arcuate, substantially horizontal flange portion (77). The flange portion (77) is separated from its vertical companion (73) by a weakened, scored tear edge (71) which permits manual removal of the flange by appropriate bending after clip installation. the spring tabs (70) project toward the clip front to maximize the working area of the clip body available for fastening to the second or later panels. A pair of opposing riser wings (92,93) extend upwardly from either side of the front body portion. When installed, the wallboard panel is contacted by the riser wings (92,93) and retained at an angular disposition relative to the next adjacent panel, to insure a smooth, gap-free seam.
