Inventor: MOAN RICHARD DAVID
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 1987-12-10
Abstract: In an automotive automatic transmission, a torque converter lockup control system includes a main regulator valve (244) connected to the discharge of a hydraulic pump (36) for supplying converter feed pressure between the plates of the lockup clutch (42) in accordance with the magnitude of line control pressure produced as a result of a line control pressure command applied to the windings of a solenoid-operated valve (240) in response to a computer command signal. A converter cooler (288) circuit includes a relief valve (294) that opens at a relatively low pressure and communicates through a clutch control valve (274) to the torque converter casing (44) in accordance with the magnitude of lockup clutch control pressure produced by a solenoid-operated lockup clutch control valve (274). A converter regulator valve (296) regulates converter feed pressure by opening the connection to the relief valve (294) as lockup clutch pressure rises.

Abstract: A creeper speed mechanism includes a speed reduction gearset driven by an engine through selectively engaged, hydraulically actuated clutches, (20, 22) which are pressurized and vented alternately to produce a high speed ratio and a low speed ratio gear reduction between the engine and the creeper speed mechanism. A coupler (78) connects alternately the speed mechanism and the engine to the transmission input shaft in accordance with the position of a shift rail (94) slideably mounted within the transmission casing. The hydraulic system that actuated the clutches pressurized as cylinder (102) and moves the shift rail (94) and coupler (78) to engage the creeper speed mechanism. A compression spring (98) moves the coupler (78) away from the creeper speed mechanism and toward engagement with the clutch output. The clutches (20, 22) are vented each time the coupler (78) is moved to a neutral position out of engagement with the creeper speed mechanism and the clutch output.

      (Hapten) a -A      (I) 
 
wherein Hapten is a water-soluble, non-antigenic moiety or group, preferably having a molecular weight of less than 5000, "A" is avidin, "a" is from 1 to 40 and preferably from 10 to 20, and Hapten is covalently bonded to "A" through an amino or carboxyl group thereof or through an azo linkage with a phenol group of a tyrosine or an imidazole group of a histidine group thereof, are reagent compounds for immunoassays. The preferred Haptens are water-soluble substituted aromatic groups having a quaternary amino group, arsonate group or nitro group substituent, or a ring nitrogen group. 
     Kits containing these compounds and antibodies specifically binding with Hapten can be used in immunoassay methods in which the compound of Formula I is contacted with a labeled antiHapten antibody for a time sufficient to permit Hapten-antibody conjugation. The label bound to the avidin derivative or the label present in the unconjugated antibody is then determined. In the preferred method of this invention, the label is an enzyme. The label is then determined by reacting a substrate with the enzyme which is selected to yield a physically measurable product, and measuring the physically measurable product produced thereby. The method can be used in nucleic acid hybridization procedures and immunoassays.

Abstract: Bolt anchored by impact for insertion in undercut drilled holes in masonry are known, which have an expanding body supported on the base of the drilled hole, onto which an expanding sleeve can be driven. These conventional bolts anchored by impact cannot be used in drilled holes which are not undercut, at least in relatively hard masonry. In order to provide a bolt anchored by impact which can be inserted in both undercut drilled holes as well as drilled holes without an undercut, in a positively locking manner, there is provided on the shank end of the bolt anchored by impact a plate with a cut-out whose side limbs can be spread in a V-shape by driving in an expanding body. The narrow edges of the plate can in this case bury themselves in the wall of the drilled hole and produce a positively locking connection to the masonry. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for producing ultra-high purity, optical quality, glass articles is disclosed which involves: 1) forming a gel from a silicon-containing organic compound, such as, TEOS; 2) drying the gel to produce granules having a mean particle size of less than about 1 millimeter; 3) fully sintering the granules to produce high purity, artificial sand; 4) casting the artificial sand by conventional techniques, such as, slip casting, to form a high density, porous, green body; 5) drying and partially sintering the green body; 6) fully sintering the green body under vacuum; and 7) hot isostatic pressing ("hipping") the green body. The glass articles produced by the process have higher purity, greater homogeneity, and less IR absorption than existing, commercially available, premium quality, fused silica, glass articles. In addition, in accordance with the invention, high purity glass articles of complex shapes can be directly cast, rather than being machined or pressed from sheets of glass, as in the prior art.

Abstract: Isolating strips for the facultative connection of electrical lines to contacts and to isolating connectors which separate the mutually touching contacts with an isolating tongue are known. An overvoltate protection connector is also known in this context. In order to be able to match individually the overvoltage protection to the circuits which are respectively present and are connected to the isolating strip, to be precise while maintaining the advantages of quick, easy handling of such switching connections, the invention provides that the overvoltage protection connectors be designed in the manner of an isolating connector of such isolating strips (1) and as four-pole networks, two terminals of the four-pole network being provided as contacts on one side and the further two terminals of the four-pole network being provided as contacts on the other side of the isolating tongue (17) of the overvoltage protection connector. The contact pairs of the overvoltage protection connector match the contact pairs (3, 4) of the isolating strip and are dimensioned such that when the overvoltage protection connector is plugged in, its contact pairs are positioned between two contact pairs of the isolating strip and make an electrical contact thereto. The overvoltage protection connectors are inserted from the same narrow side of the isolating strip as the isolating connectors into the said isolating strip, and hence assume their inserted position. Inside the respective overvoltage protection connector there are housed means of overvoltage protection which are electrically connected to its contacts. Out of the overvoltage protection connector there projects its earth terminal, or its earth terminal is accessible as a terminal. <IMAGE>
