Abstract: The invention relates to a smoke apron for subdividing and/or channelling smoke and fumes in buildings such as for example industrial structures, shopping centres and the like, particularly in the event of fire, the apron comprising a housing 2, 3, 4, 5 extending along a subdividing or channelling line, the housing 2, 3, 4, 5 supporting an apron sheet 7 which preferably consists of a woven fabric, is adapted to be weighted, and which is capable of being raised and lowered. In order to be able to lower the apron an electric motor drive 9 used to raise the apron can be subjected to a holding voltage by a measured value processing means 9.1 just sufficient to support the apron in its starting position inside the housing 2, 3, 4, 5. When there is a short fall in the holding voltage, the apron 7 can overcome the holding action of the electric motor drive 9 and move into its extreme lowered position by the action of gravity and with the assistance of weight. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a gene fragment which codes for the variable regions of an antibody having an activity of neutralizing human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), a novel recombinant anti-HIV antibody expressed by using the above gene, and a process for preparing the same. A mouse-human chimeric antibody and a modified mouse-human antibody, having an activity of neutralizing HIV, are obtained by determining a specific nucleic acid sequence of a gene fragment which codes for the variable regions of the H and L chains of an antibody having an activity of neutralizing HIV and artificially fusing a DNA synthesized on the basis of the determined sequence with a gene which codes for human immunoglobulin. The novel anti-HIV antibody is useful for treating and preventing AIDS.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a system for ensuring that the correct container (10) containing a replenishment fluid is connected to a vessel (26) for that fluid. The container carries one component (18) of a pair of axially engageable members (20). The other (28) is carried by the vessel (26, 27), notably around the necks extending therefrom, so that the members (20, 30) have to engage and nest so as to allow the necks of the container and the vessel to engage fully and thus mount the container on the vessel, one of the members (18, 28) being a moveable fit upon the container (10) or vessel (26), preferably by virtue of being a snap fit thereon, so that the member can be rotated to align its projections (20) with the recesses (30) on the other member. The invention is of especial application in ink jet printers to identify solvent and ink refill bottles and ensure that they are connected to the correct reservoir and by the use of the snap fit members allows a conventional refill bottle and reservoir to be used to achieve this.

Abstract: Absorbent articles such as disposable diapers, incontinent briefs, diaper holders, training pants, and the like, that provide dynamic fit about the wearer by the use of elasticized hip panels. Such absorbent articles comprise a liquid pervious topsheet; a liquid impervious backsheet; an absorbent core disposed between the topsheet and the backsheet; elasticized side panels positioned in the side panels of the back waist region; and an elasticized hip panel positioned in the central region of the back waist region. The elasticized hip panel comprises a stretch laminate comprising one or more elongatable components and an elastic hip panel member that are mechanically stretched to allow expansion of the stretch laminate beyond the original planar state of the diaper in the lateral direction. By adding stretch to the middle-back of the absorbent article, the absorbent article is capable of expanding in the back waist region thereby creating a more three-dimensional fit to better contour the hips and buttocks and to more completely wrap the wearer's hips and buttocks. In an alternative embodiment, a single elastic hip panel member is positioned in most of the central region of the back waist region with the stretch laminate being mechanically stretched in selected zones or preferably over the entire area of the elastic hip panel member. The absorbent core is either stretchable or preferably not attached to the stretch laminate in the mechanically stretched zones to not encumber the stretch of the stretch laminate. The topsheet is also preferably stretchable.
