Abstract: Process for preparing substitued polycyclo-alkylidene polycyclo-alkanes, such as substituted adamantylidene adamantanes, and the corresponding epidioxy compounds, in which polycyclo-alkylidene polycyclo-alkanes are halogenated with an N-halosuccinimide, tert. -butylhypohalite or sodium hypohalite/CH3COOH, the halogenation product is optionally subjected to a substitution reaction, and the substitued polycyclo-alkylidene polycyclo-alkanes are converted to the corresponding epidioxy compounds in a way known per se. Further, the invention relates to compounds of formula 44, in which A and B represent alkylene radicals, which alkylene radicals may be attached to each other via an alkylene radical C, and R1 represents a substituent, which, in case of 4-eq.-R1-2,2'-adamantylidene adamantane cannot be chloro, hydroxy, oxo, D or a group of formula (I), as well as to compounds of formula 45, in which A, B and C are as defined above, and R2 is a substituent which, in case of 4-eq.-R2-2,2'-epidioxy-2,2'-adamantyl adamantane cannot be chloro or hydroxy. Compounds of formula 45 are useful as thermochemiluminescent labels and probes in the study of biological processes and in immuno-assays.

Abstract: Dans un système de contrôle de position pour contrôler la position de plusieurs unités mobiles fonctionnant sur des itinéraires préétablis à partir d'une station de commande centrale et où chaque unité mobile (14) communique en partie avec une station de base (10), en partie avec des poteaux de signalisation (15, 16) situés à des positions précises le long d'itinéraires connues, desquels les unités mobiles (14) reçoivent pendant leur passage une information se rapportant spécifiquement à la position, les émetteurs (12, 15) à la fois de la station de base (10) et de chaque poteau individuel de signalisation (15, 16) sont disposés pour avoir la même fréquence de fonctionnement (F1). Cela économise un récepteur supplémentaire dans chacune des unités mobiles (14) tout en réduisant au minimum le besoin de canaux de transmission. De plus, l'antenne (16) du poteau de signalisation dispose d'une émission de signaux d'une portée restreinte autour d'elle et avec une intensité de signal telle que la réception de messsage des signaux d'un poteau de signalisation (15, 16) lors du passage est raisonnablement bonne (50 %); simultanément, la probabilité qu'un message provenant de la station de base (10) ne soit pas reçu est très faible (=0,1).

Abstract: A length measuring device is disclosed in which a bending rigid scale carrier is fastened to a slide piece of a machine tool at both ends by means of respective clamping shoes. A flexible measuring band is mounted on the surface of the scale carrier by means of an adhesive layer so as to be slightly shiftable in the measuring direction. The measuring band defines a graduation scanned by a scanning unit connected to the bed of the machine tool. The two ends of the measuring band are fastened by means of welding points to the ends of the scale carrier. In order to provide error correction, the end zone of the scale carrier is constructed as a stretching element formed via a joint as an integral part of the scale carrier. An adjusting screw engages directly on the scale carrier in order to adjust the longitudinal position of the stretching element in order to alter the effective length of the scale carrier and thereby adjust stretching forces applied to the measuring band to provide the desired error correction.

Abstract: An inert gas atmosphere of nitrogen and carbon dioxide is created in a refrigerated container having a diesel engine. A lower oxygen content is maintained by an oxygen limit control while the nitrogen is led into the interior of the container from a gas bottle connected with the container when the predetermined oxygen limit value is exceeded. While the inert gases are being supplied, a constant flow of cold gaseous nitrogen is produced by an electrical evaporator in the liquid nitrogen storage tank and connected to the generator of the diesel engine while carbon dioxide is removed from the gas bottle, heated, released to a constant pressure and fed into the container via throttle points constituting a parallel-switched group of such throttle points which can be individually activated.

Abstract: A display unit in which characters, symbols or images are formed by the presence or absence of physical display elements in rows and columns, and the display elements are put into a visible or invisible position in one direction (eg column direction) virtually simultaneously by means of a setting device driven (eg electromagnetically) by a data processing device, and one after another in the other direction (eg row direction) by moving the display elements past the setting device, and in which when the next axis (column or row) to be set during this movement has reached the setting position the data processing device is transmitted a return pulse which releases the drive of the setting device. Using a transport tape in which the display elements have been only partially punched out, it is possible for the display elements to be moved with the aid of a setting device in such a way that they come to be situated in front of or behind separating strips in the event of further transport of the transport tape. Since the transport tape with the display elements has a colour which contrasts with the separating strips, the set characters can be unambiguously perceived.

Abstract: Method for the site specific genomic modification of yeasts of the genus Pichia and novel DNA sequences useful therefor are provided. Pichia is transformed with a serially arranged linear DNA fragment comprising first and second insertable DNA fragments, which flank a marker gene. The insertable DNA sequences are homologous to defined portions of the Pichia genome and integrate by recombination at such defined sites. The resulting transformed organism contains the marker gene and any additional DNA sequences which are positioned between the insertable DNA fragments. In addition, the resulting transformed organism has either a disrupted or deleted sequence at the site of the genomic modification. Enhanced production of heterologous gene products is observed when using as the host for expression strains in which the alcohol oxidase gene has been disrupted. Upon disruption of the primary alcohol oxidase gene of Pichia, the existence of a second alcohol oxidase gene in Pichia was also discovered.

Abstract: An optical substantially afocal beam expander has a negative lens element (1) spaced from a positive lens element (2). The lens elements are of different materials with respective coefficients of refractive index change with respect to temperature such that the effect of a temperature change on one element is at least partially compensated by the effect of the temperature change on the other element. The beam expander is therefore substantially athermalised with respect to afocality.

Filed: 1986-12-22
Granted: 1993-07-21
Abstract: A channel bank speech synthesizer for reconstructing speech from externally-generated acoustic feature information without using externally-generated voicing or pitch information is disclosed. An N-channel pitch-excited channel bank synthesizer (340) is provided having a first low-frequency group of channel gain values (1 to M) and a second high-frequency group of channel gain values (+1 to N). The first group controls a first group of amplitude modulators (950) excited by a periodic pitch pulse source (920), and the second group controls amplitude modulators excited by a noise source (930). Both groups of modulated excitation signals are applied to the bandpass filters (960) to reconstruct the speech channels, and then combined at the summation network (970) to form a reconstructed synthesized speech signal. Additionally, the pitch pulse source (920) varies the pitch pulse period such that the pitch pulse rate decreases over the length of the word.
