Title: Valve mechanism lubrication system for horizontal cylinder overhead valve engine
Inventor: KRONICH PETER G
IPC: F02B75/16
Filed: 1988-11-17
Granted: 1993-08-17
Abstract: ABSTRACT    A lubrication system for the valve actuating mechanism of an internal combustion engine having a vertical drive shaft and horizontally oriented cylinder includes a rocker box housing the valve actuating mechanism with the valve actuating mechanism including a lower rocker arm and an upper rocker arm each oriented for rocking in a substantially horizontal rocking plane.  A push rod cavity communicates at one end with the crankcase and at the other end with the rocker box.  A cam shaft gear disposed at a lower end of a vertical cam shaft slings liquid oil from the crankcase through the push rod cavity into the rocker box.          A dam is provided for retaining liquid oil in the rocker box at a level which partially submerges the lower rocker arm such that the rocking motion of the lower rocker arm splashes dammed oil to lubricate the valve actuating mechanism.

Abstract: A B S T R A C T.    "Pressing of concrete bodies and a filter fabric for use therein."     The invention is concerned with pressing wet concrete between a ram and a mould to compact the concrete and express water from it so as to produce a moulded slab.  A layer of filter material is provided between at least one of the ram and the base of the mould on the one hand and the concrete which is being compacted on the other hand and the filter material is secured by a discontinuous coat of adhesive applied over a sufficient area of the filter material to secure adhesion of the filter material to the ram and/or base of the mould.      The discontinuous adhesive coating is preferably provided as a pattern of particles which covers substantially the entire area of the face of the filter which will contact the face of the ram or the base of the mould and in the preferred method, the adhesive is present over between 2% and 15% of the total surface area of the filter material.      It has been found that by using filter material which is secured in place by a discontinuous coat of adhesive that it is possible to use the process to manufacture relatively long runs of slabs without the filter material becoming "blinded" by concrete and other fines.

Abstract: The present application relates to an O-glycosylated human insulin-like growth factor (IGF-1).  Insulin like growth factor displays insulin-like properties and also has a mediating effect on the action of growth hormone.  Consequently, it is useful in the treatment of both diabetes and pituitary dwarfism.          Unglycosylated IGF-1 must be administered in high doses as it tends to be sequestrated by specific binding proteins circulating in the bloodstream.  High doses can lead to several undesirable side effects such as kidney complaints, obesity and a disturbed water balance.  The present invention provides the preparation of O-glycosylated IGF-1 in yeast cells.  IGF-1 glycosylated on the Thr29 amino acid has been demonstrated to have a reduced affinity to specific binding proteins and a more pronounced effect in lowering blood glucose levels.

Abstract: Apparatus for measuring the flow rate of a flow, stream or jet (1) of a molten, radiation-emitting material, in particular molten glass or ceramic or mineral materials, comprising two radiation detectors (S1, S2) arranged to detect the radiation emitted from a limited section of the material flow at two mutually spaced locations along its path. The output signals of the detectors are applied to signal-processing circuits (ST1, ST2), which discriminate therefrom all pulse-like amplitude variations (P) exceeding a given specific magnitude and provide corresponding signal pulses (P min ) on their outputs, said pulse-like amplitude variations originating from randomly occurring, local deviations in the radiation from the material flow (1) due to the presence of gas bubbles in the material. The time interval between the occurrence of a signal pulse on the output of the signal-processing circuit (St1) of the upstream detector (S1) and next following occurrence of a signal pulse on the output of the signal-processing circuit (ST2) of the downstream detector (S2) is determined by starting a digital counter (R), which is driven at a constant frequency, with the first-mentioned signal pulse and stopping the counter with the second signal pulse. The resultant count in the counter (R) is transferred to a calculating unit (D), which calculates the flow rate of the material flow on the basis of sad count and the distance (L) between the detecting locations of the detectors (S1, S2). A gating circuit (B) is connected between the signal-processing circuit (ST1)  of the upstream detector (S1) and the counter (R) for blocking the transfer of any signal pulse occurring on the output of said signal-processing circuit within a given time interval after a preceding occurrence of a signal pulse on said output.

Abstract: A motion detector is provided for detecting interimage motion represented by video signals. For composite video signals, the detector analyses both the chrominance and luminance components for image motion. Interimage motion represented by the luminance component is determined from interimage signal differences. The interimage signal differences (10,20) are separated into high (50,22) and low (22) frequency spectra corresponding to fine and coarse luminance image detail. Selected signal differences from the low frequency spectrum are summed (62) and threshold detected (64) to determine motion in the coarse image detail. The high frequency spectrum of the sample differences are applied to parallel summing circuits (72,76,74,78) which sum different combinations of sample differences in order to discriminate (80,82) motion signals from non-moving chrominance transitions. The detection signals from the high and low frequency motion detectors are combined (86) to produce a luminance motion signal. Interimage motion represented by the chrominance component is detected by combining selected ones of interimage signal sums. The interimage signal sums are high pass filtered and applied to parallel combining elements which discriminate chrominance motion from vertical luminance transitions.
