Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB93/01235 Sec. 371 Date Nov. 21, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Nov. 21, 1994 PCT Filed Jun. 10, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/25387 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 23, 1993A laser engraving head (6) for use in preparing a medium for a printing process includes a deflector (AOM). The deflector, which may be an acousto-optic modulator, deflects the laser beam which is focused by a lens (L) onto the surface of the medium. The lens (L) may be arranged telecentrically with respect to the deflected laser beams so that the exit pupil (P) defined by the range of deflected beams is located at the back focal plane of the means for focusing. A number of interchangeable beam expanders (20) may be provided mounted within the head and moveable so that one of the expanders is brought into the path of the beam to provide a desired cell size. Control circuits for the head may modify the control signal applied to the deflector compensate for variations as a function of deflection angle in the cell size produced on the medium. Where the deflector is formed on a material, such as germanium, which is subject to thermal run-away, then the head may include sampling optics which deflect a portion of the beam upstream of the deflector and a power sensor which receives the deflected beam and is monitored to detect the incidence on the deflector of optical power exceeding a predetermined threshold.

Abstract: A method for detecting the onset of labor in a patient, which comprises analyzing a body fluid of the patient for estriol concentration; correlating the concentration with a standard value; and relating a higher concentration of estriol relative to the standard value as an indication of potential onset of pre-term labor. The standard is usually selected from the group consisting of (1) a predetermined range of estriol concentrations for the body fluid in normal pregnant humans at a preselected time relative to normal, full-term delivery, or (2) a previously measured estriol concentration of the same body fluid of the same pregnant human. Use of this method does not require determination of an estriol/progesterone concentration ratio in the body fluid being test.

Abstract: An end of stroke cushion for a linear hydraulic motor. A piston-cylinder unit includes a cylinder body (42) reciprocally slidable on a piston rod (40) having a piston head (64) which defines working chambers (82, 84) within the cylinder body (42). The piston rod (62) is tubular and includes a plurality of sidewall ports (P1-P7). A radially-expandable annular valve ring (106) normally snugly surrounds the piston rod (62) and during axial movement of the cylinder body (42) relative to the piston rod (62), the valve ring (106) will move axially relative to the sidewall ports (P1-P7) in the piston rod (62). Pressure introduction to the working chamber (84) through the sidewall ports (P1-P7) of the piston rod (62) and against the valve ring (106) radially expands the valve ring (106). This allows oil flow to move into the working chamber (84) such that when the chamber (84) expands, the cylinder body (42) and valve ring (106) will move axially relative to the sidewall ports (P1-P7), successively uncovering the ports (P1-P7) during movement. Removal of fluid from the working chamber (84) will cause oil movement out from the chamber (84), through the sidewall ports (P1-P7) into the tubular piston rod (62) such that when the linear motor (10) approaches the end of its stroke, the valve ring will close the sidewall ports (P1-P7) in the piston rod (62) which allows oil flow out from the working chamber (84) in succession.

Abstract: Processes for the removal of fluid adhering to surfaces of objects to be treated by means of compressed-air jets emerging from orifices in air-jet devices and directed onto the objects to be treated are known. Processes of this type are used, for example, for removing electroplating fluid adhering to surfaces. The disadvantage of the known processes is that stainless drying is impossible or is possible only at a considerable outlay in terms of apparatus. A process and an arrangement, in which, for stainless drying, air-jet devices, from which the compressed-air jets emerge, are set in oscillating movement in at least one plane, are therefore described. As a result, the fluid on the surface of the object to be treated is essentially atomised and consequently removed rapidly from this. The remaining surface moisture can evaporate. Heated compressed air is used to assist the evaporation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The advantages of both active and passive modelocking techniques are realized within a single device by providing a p-i-n modulator formed at antiresonance within a Fabry-Perot etalon. The p-i-n modulator actively modulates light within the laser cavity by introducing periodic loss in response to changing voltages applied to the modulator. The p-i-n modulator includes an intrinsic region that is disposed between a p-doped region and an n-doped region. The modelocking performance of the p-i-n modulator is enhanced by the saturable absorber action of the intrinsic region.

Abstract: A radio communication apparatus capable of varying the level of its transmission output, comprising a receiving circuit, a transmitting circuit, an amplifier (14), an extractor, a detector (33), a variable voltage converter (40) and a control circuit (21). The receiving circuit receives a signal from an opposite station such as a base station, and the transmitting circuit transmits a signal to the opposite station. The amplifier (14) amplifies the output signal obtained from the transmitter, and the extractor extracts data from the output signal of the receiving circuit so as to control the level of the transmission output. The detector (33) detects the level of the transmission output obtained from the amplifier (14), and the variable voltage converter (40) converts a source voltage into the operating voltage of the amplifier. And the control circuit (21) produces a control signal to control the magnitude of the operating voltage supplied from the variable voltage converter (40) to the amplifier in response to both the detection signal (V33) from the detector and the output signal (V31) from the extractor, and supplies the produced control signal (V32) to the variable voltage converter. The transmission output obtained from the amplifier is varied by changing the operating voltage supplied from the variable voltage converter to the amplifier.
