Abstract: Disposable absorbent articles such as baby diapers or adult incontinent briefs provided with a refastenable adhesive fastening system. The adhesive fastening system preferably comprises a pair of tape tabs each having an adhesive surface which during use is adhered to a landing member having an adherence surface which may comprise only the backsheet that has no reinforcement for strength against tearing or may comprise a reinforced backsheet. The invention improves bond security while at the same time making the fastening system more easy to remove without tearing by careful optimization of the properties of the adhesive, the tape tab, and the landing member. In particular, it has been found that the adhesive fastening system should have a Standard Shear Hang Time of greater than about 1000 minutes per square inch. The surface characteristics, toughness, and elasticity modulus of the landing member is optimized while the adhesive aggressiveness (quick-stick) of the adhesive is optimized with preferred low coating weights of the adhesive and low calculated caliper for the landing member so as to provide an adhesive fastening system that bonds easily, holds securely and is refastenable.

Abstract: Apparatus for feeding correctly oriented test strips to an analyser. The test strips 10 have a base layer and at least one raised test field attached to one side of the base layer. The test strips are present in a reservoir in a random arrangement with respect to the rotational position of their longitudinal axes. An isolating and orientation correction device 1 is used to feed the test strips 10 individually and successively in a defined orientation to the analyser. 
<??>A simple construction and reliable functioning is achieved by the isolating and orientation correction device 1 having an orientation correction stage 30 with two rollers, between which there is a narrow gap 35. The rollers rotate in such a way that the lateral face 31a of the first roller 31 in the region of the gap 35 moves downwards, while the lateral face 32a of the second roller 32 moves upwards. The first roller 31 has revolving raised webs 37 which are aligned with test field-free regions of the test strips 10. The second roller 32 is provided with followers 38 which run parallel to the axis. The width of the gap 35 in the regin of the raised webs 37 is smaller than the thickness of the test strips including the test field.

Abstract: For the adjustable fastening of a glass panel in a receiving groove of an upper frame strip, the former has, in the vicinity of the two ends of the upper edge region, circular holes through which fastening elements are inserted. Each fastening element consists of a tie part (5) with an outer surface (13) which is approximately cylindrically symmetrical about an adjusting axis (12) and which is meshed with an inner surface (14) of a holding part (6) slipped onto the tie part (5). The tie part (5) engages with axially projecting tie pins (8) into continuous tie grooves made laterally in the receiving groove. The edge of the hole in the glass panel touches the holding part (6) on an outer contact surface (7) which is rotationally symmetrical about an eccentric axis (15) parallel to the adjusting axis (12) and spaced from the latter by the amount of an eccentricity ( DELTA ). The holding part (6) can be drawn off from the tie part (5) and slipped on again, rotated through a multiple of an increment ( alpha ) about the adjusting axis (12), with the result that the vertical position of the contact surface (7) in relation to the tie part (5) and therefore the position of the glass panel in relation to the frame strip changes. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for feeding a wrapping strip (11a, 11b), in a tow machine in the tobacco processing industry, for a tow (4a, 4b) which may consist of smokable material or filter material, and is conveyed by a tow conveyor belt (3a, 3b). The problem underlying the invention comprises ensuring reliable entrainment of the start of the wrapping strip to the garniture of the machine, in which the tow is wrapped with the wrapping strip. According to the invention, the problem is solved in that a displacement element (21a, 21b) is provided which can be activated, when the start of the wrapping strip is fed, to reduce the distance between the tow conveyor belt and the wrapping strip. As a result of the invention, simple threading of wrapping strips and reliable entrainment of the start of the wrapping strip are guaranteed. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a diaphragm valve with an adjustable closure stroke stop, the diaphragm (7) being actuated via a valve spindle (4) by means of a hand wheel (2). Arranged between the hand wheel and the valve housing (6) is a threaded nut (3) which is screwed onto the external thread of the valve spindle. The threaded nut is furthermore connected positively to the hand wheel and is thus taken along when the hand wheel is turned to open and close the valve. In the closing direction, the threaded nut comes to rest against the housing and thereby forms a closure stroke stop for the threaded spindle and the diaphragm. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An apparatus (1) for forming a base (2) on a tubular container (3). The apparatus comprises a die (5), and a punch plate (7) having an aperture (8) defining an open end of the die (5). A punch (10) is co-operable with the punch plate (7) and the die (5). Transport means are provided to feed a strip (22) of hot thermoplastic material between the punch (10) and the punch plate (7). Locating means (12) locate the container (3) such that one end extends marginally into the die (5). The punch (10) is selectively operable in a single stroke to shear off a slug of the material by forcing the strip (22) against the plate (7) and to punch (10) the slug through the aperture (8) into forming engagement with the die (5). A peripheral edge of the slug is thereby thermoplastically bonded to the exposed end of the container (3) within the die (5) to form the base (2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: In order to improve the productivity of pressure-resisting bottles by reducing the blow time from 4-5 seconds in a conventional bottle molding method to not more than 3 seconds, and mold pressure resisting bottles free from the occurrence of crazing and bottom-breakage, a biaxially stretched blow molded bottle (1) of a synthetic resin having a big foot type petaloid bottom is produced in a blow time of not more than 3 seconds, and, after the product has been leased from the mold, the bottom portion (3) of the bottle is subjected to forcible cooling immediately until the temperature of the central part (6) of the bottom portion (3) has become not higher than 70  C, whereby the shortage of the capability of the metal mold of cooling the bottom portion (3) is supplemented. This allows both the prevention of the irregular deformation of the central part (6) of the bottom portion, and the molding of the bottom portion (3) of high pressure resisting strength and mechanical strength with a sufficient height H of the central part (6) of the bottom portion ensured.

Abstract: The object is to prepare a high-molecular-weight polyester in such a way that it is advantageously possible to produce even relatively small amounts of very high molecular weight in a very short time. This is achieved by the preparation of a polyester having an alkenediol content by continuing the polycondensation step to a viscosity number of from 50 to 140 cm<3>/g and subsequently subjecting the resultant polyester to solid phase postcondensation until the requisite viscosity number has been reached. The novel process enables high-molecular-weight polyesters having the desired property profile to be obtained.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a novel process for using a recently discovered dipeptidylaminopeptidase isolated from the cellular slime mold, Dictyostelium discoideum (dDAP). The claimed process involves immobilizing dDAP onto a support surface so that even numbered, N-terminal dipeptides can be efficiently removed from precursor proteins or polypeptides to yield desired processed proteins or polypeptides. The invention provides a means for reusing dDAP in multiple conversion reaction runs, as the enzyme does not become a part of the substrate/product solution. The claimed process is particularly useful for converting a precursor human proinsulin analog (Met-Arg-Human Proinsulin having Lys at position 28 and Pro at position 29 of the corresponding insulin B-chain; MR-KPB-hPI) to a processed insulin analog (Human Proinsulin having Lys at position 28 and Pro at position 29 of the corresponding insulin B-chain, KPB-hPI).
