Date Mar. 12, 1998A positively controlled ball valve for flowing fluids, in particular water, for instance for use in snow making machines. The valve includes a valve housing (1) having a flow passageway (3) for the water (7), a valve seat (9) arranged in the flow passageway (3), and a valve ball (10) which is movable towards and from the valve seat (9). A force actuation device (4) having a piston rod (20) positively acts on the valve ball (10), which is movable in a race (11) in the valve housing (1). The race extends from the valve seat (9) obliquely outwards-rearwards, upstream of the flow of water (7). The force actuation device (4) is formed with a piston rod (20) arranged for being able to force the valve ball (10) in the direction away from the valve seat (4) and into the race (11) for the ball. The piston rod (20) is arranged to act on the valve ball (10), in the first stage of the opening of the valve, so that the ball at least partly rolls out of the valve seat (9). The valve seat (9) is formed with a valve sealing (14) of an elastomeric material having a metal ring (16) engaging the inner surface and the rear end of the valve sealing (14).

Abstract: The present inventors have now discovered that humans have a gene that encodes a novel protein of the thymosin  beta  family. This novel protein, herein referred to as thymosin  beta 15, has the ability to bind and sequester G-actin, like other members of the thymosin  beta  family, but unlike what is known about other members it also directly regulates cell motility in prostatic carcinoma cells. The present invention is direct to an isolated cDNA encoding the human thymosin  beta 15 gene (SEQ ID NO: 1) and have deduced the amino acid sequence (SEQ ID NO: 2).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for decoding bar code symbols using an analysis of the ratios of the module size for the bars and spaces of the bar code. The invention is applicable to any bar code having one or more nominal widths in the bars and spaces, and is particularly useful in bar codes having multiples widths in the specification for the bar code and in situations where the bar code signal has a low signal-to-noise ratio, or is degraded because of a damaged, smudged, or dirty bar code, or where the bar code is read at less than the optimum angle. The invention identifies mis-decoded characters and uses adaptive techniques to decode characters previously non-decodable or mis-decoded by standard methods, thereby improving the decode rate as compared to prior techniques. The decoding rate is improved without having to re-scan the bar code for a new signal, thereby making the invention particularly useful for high-speed or one-pass decoding operations.

Abstract: Casting metal strip by delivering molten metal to a casting pool (81) supported on a pair of parallel casting rolls (16) and passing metal downwardly between the rolls to produce solidified strip (20). Flow of metal to the casting pool (81) is controlled by an input flow control valve (47). At start of casting when pool (81) is being filled speed of rolls (16) is varied in response to variations between actual instantaneous poo level and predicted level until pool approaches desired operational level. Thereafter any variations between instantaneous roll speed and desired operational roll speed are caused to adjust valve (47) to being pool level and roll speed to desired operational valves. <IMAGE>
