Patent EP-0598003-B1 (EP)
Inventor: SHEEHY TIMOTHY M

Granted: 1999-02-10
Abstract: A substrate for surface-enhanced analytical procedures, such substrates prepared for use in specific procedures to detect specific binding partner molecules, and a method for making them. The substrate is a body having a substrate surface on which there are randomly spaced apart metal islands. A continuous layer of coupling agent coats the islands and any intervening substrate surface. First binding partner molecules are bonded to the coupling agent. These are specifically attractive to specified second partner molecules for an analytical procedure for detecting the presence of, and perhaps the concentration of second partner molecules, or in some procedures, of a specified third binding partner molecule which becomes bonded to the second binding partner molecule. The thickness of the coupling agent layer is selected to improve the sensitivity of a given analytical procedure for detecting or measuring the specific binding partner molecule.

Abstract: A simulcast transmission system (10) and method provides for time synchronizing data transmissions from a plurality of transmission stations (16, 18). The transmission stations (16, 18) include transmission clocks (36) for controlling the time of transmission of synchronization timing signals and data. The synchronization timing signals indicate a local time of transmission which are transmitted in response to system timing signals received from the control station (12). The control station (12) comprises apparatus (20) for generating and distributing the system timing signals, apparatus (26) for receiving the synchronization timing signals from the transmission stations, and apparatus (20, 22, 28) for generating and distributing time adjustment factor signals to the transmission stations (16, 18) in response to receiving the synchronization timing signals. The transmission clocks (36) are adjusted in response to the time adjustment factor signals for controlling the time of transmission of the data signals.

Abstract: The transmission system provides digital data corresp. to an alternative frequency or programme information code, identifying the other frequencies providing the same radio programme. This information is obtained by short-term switching of the receiver to each alternative frequency with evaluation of the reception quality to allow switching from the tuned frequency when an improved signal is obtained. Pref. the reception quality is evaluated using the signal distortion on its own or in addition to the reception field intensity, with the bit error rate of the radio data signal used as the criteria for the signal distortion.

Abstract: A packet switched communication system employing ANR and/or multicast tree routing is improved by using a Copy ID field in the network header of the packet. The Copy ID field defines a control function and allows packet processing to be distributed among the several processors of each node. The selection of the processor (or processors) to receive the packet may be accomplished by making use of the routing field of the network header to qualify the control function specified in the Copy ID field. The control message is processed as defined for the control function by the processor receiving the packet. In multicast tree routing the control function is performed at all nodes in the multicast tree. In ANR routing, a prefacing "selective copy" bit is included in each label in the routing field of the network header; each node employed in the packet transmission path uses one label. The selective copy bit in each label triggers or not (according to its setting) the copy function in that node. The network control function specified in the Copy ID field may be performed in a given node when the copy function is triggered for that node. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The air-conditioning process relates, for example, to the interior of a building, in particular an office room, the ceiling of which is at least partly equipped with coolable elements. In the event of work being performed over a limited period of the day, heat is emitted. This heat is dissipated by means of the cooling ceiling (1), a cooling device (3) and a circulating cooling medium and released to the environment. According to the invention, the masonry (2) of the building is used as an additional heat sink; periodically, during times when no work is being done, this heat sink is regenerated by a temperature drop produced by means of the cooling ceiling in the interior room. With the process according to the invention it is possible to create the required comfort conditions using a cooling ceiling which is unable to dissipate an instantaneous heat load. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system and method is disclosed for providing control of a fuel-operable burner assembly of a firefighter trainer in accordance with a sensed environmental parameter such as the temperature of an object such as a metal grating or prop that is positioned adjacent to the burner assembly. The control system and method are particularly advantageous to simulate fire reflash following substantial extinguishment of the fire, as operational parameters such as the rate of flame growth, maximum flame height, and reflash delay can be selected and varied from one scenario to the other to modify the training scenario in accordance with such factors as trainee proficiency and the type or class of fire. Burner control is preferably accomplished by an automated processing system in accordance with the foregoing environmental and operational parameters.

Abstract: A fuel preheater for use with internal combustion engines is disclosed. The preheater works on the principle that by preheating the fuel, the fuel is more effectively vaporized, resulting in more efficient combustion. This preheating is accomplished using heat normally wasted via the radiator. The preheater has a housing, through which heated engine coolant on its way from the engine block to the radiator is routed. A coiled steel gas line is routed through the housing, and is connected between the regular fuel line and the engine.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for steering an agricultural machine and to an agricultural machine. Especially when treating rows of crops (14, 15) it is important that, for the cultivation operation concerned, a differentiation is made between the crops located in the rows and that which is located between them. For this reason, accurate steering of the agricultural machine has to follow a series of desired positions (15, 18). The driver lines up the agricultural machine with said series with the aid of a marker (25). Furthermore, according to the invention, actual direction of travel of the agricultural machine and not just actual position of the agricultural machine is involved in the determination of the steering corrections to be made.
