Abstract: Un actuateur sous-marin commandant une vanne (20) ou analogue comporte un élément de paroi amovible (19) fixé à une tige pouvant coulisser de manière axiale, ledit élément de paroi servant à séparer une chambre de compression (2) d'un espace (3) soumis à la pression hydrostatique de l'eau de mer ambiante. Un clapet sélecteur (11) sert à relier ladite chambre (2) à une source de fluide sous pression telle qu'une source de gaz sous pression (14), ou à une voie d'écoulement pouvant être reliée à l'atmosphère par l'intermédiaire d'un réservoir de pression (12) et d'un tuyau (15). On a prévu une vanne de purge (16) et un clapet de drainage (13) pour éjecter le liquide accumulé dans le réservoir (12). L'espace (3) peut être relié à un récipient à fond ouvert (17) pour former une barrière de gaz entre l'eau de mer et l'intérieur de l'actuateur. L'arrivée de gaz sous pression dans la chambre (2) pousse l'élément (19) vers l'avant, ce qui permet au gaz de passer autour dudit élément pour rentrer dans l'espace (3) et aider l'éjection d'eau du récipient (17) ainsi que l'éjection des contaminants qui pourraient se trouver dans l'actuateur. Lorsque l'on met la chambre (2) en communication avec la pression barométrique, la pression hydrostatique de l'eau de mer pousse ledit élément (19) dans le sens contraire.

Abstract: A dry powder inhaler (10) consists of a chamber (12) into which powder is introduced from a metering system, and a mouthpiece (26) through which a patient inhales, connected by a duct (16), so that air flows through the chamber carrying the powder into the patient's lungs. Within the duct is an impactor (25) consisting of a plate (27) spaced in front of a similarly sized aperture, and between the chamber and the impactor plate is an orifice (18) narrower than the duct, so the air stream is diverted along S-shaped paths to avoid the plate. The presence of the impactor can improve the efficiency of delivery of a drug to the lungs, and decrease the unwanted dose to the mouth and throat, as the latter is principally due to agglomerates or larger particles which are intercepted or broken up by the impactor.

Abstract: A curtain arrangement for closing for instance a gate opening comprises a canvas member (1) which is attached at an upper edge (2) and which in an area halfway between the upper edge (2) and a lower edge (3) has a horizontal rolling rod (4), non-rotatably connected to the canvas member in order, upon rotation, to permit winding the canvas member on the rod. To at least one of the ends of the rolling rod (4) is connected a pull rope (5) serving to effect raising and rotation of the rolling rod. To the rolling rod (4) is also connected a second rope (6) axially spaced apart from the pull rope (5) and arranged, upon rotation and raising of the pulling rod, to exert a downwardly directed counterforce on the rolling rod so as to force the canvas member to be wound on the rod in a stretched condition, said counterforce rope being connected to a counterweight or other equivalent means (12) ensuring the resiliency of the counterforce rope in spite of the fact that the counterforce continuously acts on it during the combined rotating and raising movement of the rod.

Abstract: It comprises a box 1 in which is located a primary chamber 3 divided into two parts by a free piston 4. This primary chamber 3 communicates with a secondary chamber 7 by means of a suction channel in which is located a non-return valve 9. The secondary chamber 7 comprises a piston 16 sliding freely in the latter and securely fastened to a push button 17 emerging from the box 1. The secondary chamber 7 communicates with an orifice 2 for discharging the product, by means of a discharge channel fitted with a non-return valve 12. Under the action of the control piston 16, the metered quantity of product contained in the secondary chamber 7 is discharged. When the piston 16 returns into position, a new metered quantity of product passes from the primary chamber 3 into the secondary chamber 7, the non-return valve 12 preventing any air suction towards the inside of the box. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus (1) for hiring trolleys. The apparatus (1) consists of a number of trolleys (2, 2') which are equipped with coupling parts (9) for coupling them together, and of a collection point (4). Each coupling part (9) has an insertion part (14) and a locking well (11). The trolleys (2, 2') can be uncoupled from the collection point (4) against payment of a coin deposit and can be coupled to this again after use, the coin deposit being refunded. To prevent the stacked row (22) of returned trolleys (2, 2') from increasing beyond a predetermined length, the invention proposes arranging at the end of the collection point (4) a magnet (7) which, when a trolley (2, 2') moves past, influences a blocking member located in the coupling part (9) of this trolley (2, 2'), in such a way that, as long as the coupling part (9) is in the effective range (8) of the magnet (7), this blocking member projects into the locking well (11) of the coupling part (9), so that the insertion part (14) of a trolley (2) located in front cannot be introduced into the coupling part (9) of a trolley (2') which is to be pushed in. This measure ensures an automatic limitation of the length of a stacked row (22). <IMAGE>

Date Apr. 29, 1993.A binding assay process for an analyte, using a capture binding agent with binding sites specific for the analyte and a developing binding material capable of binding with the bound analyte or with the binding sites on the capture binding agent either occupied by the bound analyte or the remaining unoccupied binding sites, employs the capture binding agent in an amount such that only an insignificant fraction of the sample analyte becomes bound to the capture binding agent, which is preferably provided at high surface density on microspots. A label is used in relation to the developing binding material and is provided by microspheres which are less than 5  mu m and carry a marker preferably fluorescent dye molecules. To determine the concentration of sample analyte, the signal strength, which represents the fractional occupancy of the binding sites on the capture binding agent by the analyte, is compared with a dose-response curve computed from standard samples. To detect an analyte comprising a single-stranded DNA sequence the analyte presence is detected by the existence of a signal. A kit for the process comprises the capture binding agent immobilised on a solid support, a developing reagent with the developing binding material attached to the microspheres and, for quantitative assays, standards of known amounts of concentrations of the analyte of interest.
