Abstract: A printing machine includes a movable lens, which may be placed in position at the time of printing and held at a stand-by position spaced apart from a film during other operations. In this way, maintenance and adjustment of the lens become easy. A sample print monitor comprising a CCD camera, a line sensor, etc., is provided for measuring deviation of the center of exposure to automatically register correction values. A desired exposure angle is obtained by rotating a negative mask portion, a lens portion, an exposure table, etc., at the same angle. In addition to a rotary mechanism, the lens portion is slid finely so as to constitute a printing machine of a three-dimensional photograph having higher accuracy. Moving means are provided to an enlarging lens and to the exposure table so as to effect printing by trimming. An edge shaver is caused to act in a rectangular direction to the travelling direction of printing paper so as to cut off dust within the range of the end surface of the tip of printing paper cut by a cutter, and the dust is sucked by a dust suction mechanism and is sent to a dust box.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of generating antibodies directed against cell surface antigens and it uses recombinant insect cells as immunogens. The insect cells have been transfected with coding regions for a molecule containing a cell surface antigen and these antigens are expressed on the surface of the insect cells. Host animals are immunized with these transfected insect cells to generate antibodies directed against the cell surface antigen. Antibody-producing cells from the host animal are used to generate monoclonal antibody-producing hybridoma cells. Sera and hybridoma supernatants can be tested for the presence of antibodies against the surface antigen, using the transfected cells in a screening assay. Specific antibodies that have been generated by the present method are anti-B7 and anti-CD40 antibodies and they can be used to prevent or treat an antibody-mediated or immune system disease in a patient. The anti-B7 antibodies can be used to cause T cell anergy, treat allograft transplant rejection, treat graft versus host disease, and prevent or treat rheumatoid arthritis. An immunosuppressive agent may be co-administered with the antibody. The anti-CD40 antibodies which bind to the CD40 antigen can be used to prevent the growth or differentiation of the B cell. Monoclonal antibodies useful in these methods, and epitopes immunoreactive with such monoclonal antibodies are also presented.

Abstract: In a hydraulic device a variable capacity pump adapted to record a differential pressure via a control valve is actuated in such a way that a constant operational pressure gradient is maintained. Since the variable capacity pump is driven by a rotary current motor, which is connected to a current source by a frequency converter and is regulable with regard to its speed, it is possible to control hydraulic consumers in an energy-saving manner at a reasonable price.

Abstract: A processor to memory interconnect network can be used to construct both small and large scale multiprocessing systems. The interconnect network includes network modules and memory modules. The network and memory modules are constructed of a series of nxm switches, each of which route one of n inputs to one of m outputs. The switches are designed such that message contention in the interconnect network is reduced. The switches, and thus the memory and network modules are highly modular, thus allowing virtually any scale multiprocessing system to be constructed utilizing the same components.

Abstract: A switch has a fixed contact (5) secured to a contact strip (1) in the switch housing, a movable contact (2) pivoted in the switch housing and a conductor strip (3) which acts as a stop for the movable contact (2) in its OFF position. The space (8) between the contact strip (1) and the conductor strip (3) is bounded on both sides by plates (7). In the plates (7) there are three apertures (4) leading outwards from the space (8) bounded by the contact strip (1), the conductor strip (3) and the plates (7) into the spaces (11) between the plates (7) and the relevant walls (10) of the housing. Arc gases can flow out and back to the contact point through said apertures (4) in the plates (7) so that the movement of the arc gases to an arc quenching chamber is supported. In addition, owing to the local reduction in the area of the plates (7) by the apertures (4), a gas pressure difference is created between the front side and the rear side of the arc which supports the movement of the arc gases to the arc quenching chamber.

Abstract: A radiotelephone (10) simulates the call origination process performed by land-line telephones. Dial tone is generated (78) in response to an off-hook condition and removed when a first digit (54) is dialed. A timer process (84, 110) and a number analysis process (100) simultaneously evaluate dialed digits to detect the completion of dialing. The number analysis process (100) identifies seven, ten, and eleven digit, and indeterminate length phone number formats (64, 66, 52, 68). The ten digit format is recognized in response to remotely programmed (42) connected NPA codes. For most calls, the number analysis process (100) instantly detects a phone number's final digit (62). In a few cases the timer process (84, 110) detects the final digit through the absence of dialing activity for a predetermined duration. When the final digit (62) is detected, an origination message is transmitted to a cellular network.
