Abstract: A self-clamping plate for use in a slide gate mechanism is described. The plate
comprises a refractory plate having at least one sliding surface and a metal sheath
around the peripheral edge of the plate. The metal sheath is adapted to secure the plate
to the slide gate mechanism using at least two lugs cooperating with corresponding
indentations. The lugs may be arranged or shaped to prevent misinsertion of the plate

ring having an inner chamfered edge mated to a similarly chamfered edge on the
peripheral edge of a refractory plate. An outer edge of the clamping ring is adapted to be
secured to the slide gate mechanism by at least two lugs cooperatively engaging
corresponding indentations. A mounting means urges together the chamfered edges of
the clamping ring and the refractory plate.

Abstract: The detection logic mechanism has a detector receiving distress signals, and makes comparisons (1) with a reference level to find if a distress signal exists, with subsequent signalling to the life saver. The life saver rotates the receiver around its vertical axis, and the maximum signal (3) is detected. The location of the victim is determined , and the life saver heads off in the appropriate direction until a high threshold level (6) is passed, signalling the location of the victim. There are also logic steps to reject directions where levels are too low and to repeat the cycle.

Abstract: Rigid (7) and flexible sections (35) are assembled using a rotary drum (12). The interface corresponds in shape with that of the drum. The rigid section is held in a housing formed as a recess into the periphery of the drum. An Independent claim is included for a vacuum cleaner filter made as above. Preferred Features: The front face of the assembly is defined by intersections of the drum shape with the protuberance of the rigid section, defined by a radius from the drum axis. Parts for assembly are carried by the drum, in continuous rotation. Operations other than assembly are carried out on the drum. The drum also detaches the product. The rigid section includes an opening; during assembly, the flexible structure is separated across the opening of the rigid section. Assembly is carried out with an ultrasonic welding unit (20, 22). The rigid section contour includes ridges, to direct the ultrasonic energy appropriately during assembly. A development of the method completes a vacuum cleaner filter unit made of both flexible and rigid materials. It is also able to add a flexible bag, all in a single rotation of the drum.

Abstract: Selon la présente invention, un appareil de dépôt physique en phase vapeur ionisée (10, 10a, 10b) est pourvu d'un élément HF, de préférence une bobine hélicoïdale (30) qui entoure de l'espace (11) dans une chambre à vide (12) entre une cible (16) et un porte-substrat (14). L'énergie HF, de préférence à environ 2 MHz, ou quelque part dans la plage des 0,1 à 60 MHz, est couplé dans l'espace de façon à former un plasma secondaire (19) dans un volume (16) de l'espace entre le porte-substrat et le plasma principal qui est adjacent de la cible. Le plasma secondaire ionise le matériau pulvérisé qui est alors attiré vers un substrat (15) sur le porte-substrat par une polarisation sur le substrat et/ou par un champ magnétique axial de façon à conférer aux particules de pulvérisation ionisées en transit une anisotropie capable de les présenter en incidence perpendiculaire au substrat, ce qui aboutit à un revêtement des fonds des traits étroits de rapport d'aspect élevé sur le substrat. Une fenêtre (60) de matériau diélectrique tel que le quartz, soit dans la paroi, voire à l'intérieur de la chambre, soit dans l'isolation (86) recouvrant la bobine, protège la bobine contre les effets néfaste du plasma. Des écrans (100, 200, 300) entre l'espace considéré et le matériau diélectrique empêchent les particules de pulvérisation de venir recouvrir le matériau diélectrique. Ces écrans sont partitionnés ou fendus pour empêcher la formation de courants induits dans les écrans. Ces écrans peuvent être polarisés pour lutter contre les contaminations, polarisation qui peut être individuelle ou commune de façon à optimiser l'uniformité du revêtement sur le substrat et l'anisotropie du flux de matériau ionisé au niveau du substrat. L'écran peut être constitué d'une pluralité de parties inclinées (302) espacées de façon à favoriser le passage du plasma HF secondaire depuis la zone adjacente de la fenêtre en direction du volume de la chambre ou le matériau est ionisé, les parties inclinées étant inclinées et séparées de façon à faire de l'ombre sur au moins la plus grande partie de la fenêtre. Selon une autre réalisation, on peut placer un écran électroconducteur (100) très près de la fenêtre ou de l'isolation, laissant libre un espace de préférence inférieur au parcours libre moyen des atomes de gaz dans la chambre de façon qu'aucun plasma ne se forme derrière l'écran. L'écran (100) est pourvu d'au moins une fente axiale (103) destiné à empêcher que des courants azimutaux ou de circonférence ne viennent cour-circuiter l'énergie couplée.

Abstract: In order to carry out optical detection and identification of individual tumor markers in undiluted blood plasma, said tumor markers are marked with fluorescent dyes which are characterized by specific fluorescent lifetimes ranging from 0.5 to 6. The blood plasma is exposed to pulsed diode laser radiation emitted in the 630 to 670 nm wavelength range. The emission wavelengths of the dyes are selected in such a way that they are 10 to 60 nm longer than the wavelength of the diode laser. Blood plasma decay curves are detected using time-correlated single photon counts. Said curves are described by a bi-exponential model wherein it is assumed that a fixed fluorescent lifetime for blood plasma emission is 300 ps and that the marked tumor markers have a variable fluorescent lifetime. The relative amount of fluorescent photons in the marked tumors is determined in relation to the overall number of photons detected. If this value exceeds 0.3, a tumor marker is present in the observed volume. The tumor markers can also be identified by the lifetimes which are determined through bi-exponential evaluation. In this manner, individual tumor markers can be detected and identified in undiluted blood plasma.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for automatically controlling the lighting intensity of a light source in units used for detecting a position upon the automatic insertion of components (3). In the case of position-detecting units that include a plurality of light sources (4), the lighting is controlled manually according to the components and before they are inserted so that an image evaluation unit (7) mounted downstream from a camera (6) can detect any wrong position of the components (3) during their insertion and enable the appropriate correction. This intensity control is generally difficult to carry out and cannot be reproduced. This method comprises determining coefficients from the successive intensity variation in individual light sources (4) and by recording the resulting variations in the values of grey in the case of a component (3) having useful and bulky structures (9, 8). These coefficients are used for determining the optimal lighting by linear optimisation.
