Abstract: The invention relates to a computing unit, in particular a central processing unit of a modular programmable controller, having a high-priority task (hpT) and at least one further task (for example wT) of lower priority, it being possible for the tasks (hpT, wT) to be executed by the computing unit (1), the computing unit (1) being able to execute only one of the tasks (hpT, wT) at a specific point in time. A request and a conclusion condition are assigned at least to the high-priority task (hpT); when the request condition of the high-priority task (hpT) occurs, the computing unit (1) stops executing the at least one further task (wT) of lower priority and starts to execute the high-priority task (hpT); the computing unit (1) stops executing the high-priority task (hpT) after a maximum computing time and starts to execute once more the at least one further task (wT) of lower priority, even if the conclusion condition of the high-priority task (hpT) has not occurred. <IMAGE>

Date Mar. 31, 1994The present invention relates to a syringe for delivering only a single dose of a medicament at each actuation of the syringe. The device includes a cylinder which is adapted to contain the medicament, the cylinder having a piston which is journalled in the bore of the cylinder for axial movement in the bore towards an outlet. The piston can be moved axially within the bore of the cylinder by means of a plunger member which carries one or more drive teeth which are adapted to engage teeth carried by an axially moveable drive member. The axial spacing between the axially adjacent teeth on either the plunger member or the drive member corresponds to the forward axial movement of the plunger member which is required to discharge a single dose of medicament. The drive member can also be retracted axially only a predetermined distance which corresponds to one of the tooth spacings with respect to the plunger.

Abstract: In the case of fibre-optic amplifiers, the input light power is monitored in order to switch off the system in which it is contained, or individual system components, for example the fibre-optic amplifier itself, in the event of deficient input light power. In known fibre-optic amplifiers, a part of the input light power is extracted for this purpose through a coupler. However, these couplers produce disadvantages; for example deterioration of the signal-to-noise ratio. In the fibre-optic amplifier according to the invention, a device (4) is used for monitoring the input light power which extracts and evaluates the pumping light not absorbed in the optical waveguide section (2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to the problem of recycling of products of complicated structure and is based on the idea to provide each component (2 to 6) of the product with a memory (2a, 2b ... 6b) in which not only at the timing of production information such as location of material to be recycled is stored but also additional data, e.g., about repair and/or specific stress to which the component has been exposed during its use. Such additional data may be collected via specific sensors (7, 8) provided either on each component or in or on the body of the product to be memorized in the memory of each component. Based on the idea of the invention, the life history of each component of the discarded product can be checked individually for determining whether such component may be reused or disposed for disassembling and recycling. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A device for the swiveling movement of a sheet is described. A stationary bearing part supports an articulated part in a swivelable manner. The articulated part supports the sheet and is movable about a substantially horizontal swivel axis. The sheet is accordingly movable between a lowered position and a raised position, the direction of this movement being determined by a vertical swiveling plane. Energy accumulators, e.g., pneumatic springs, serve as auxiliary lifting means for raising the sheet. These energy accumulators have two connection ends which are loaded in opposite directions and determine the effective direction of force of the energy accumulator. For the purpose of an advantageous arrangement of the device which economizes on space, it is proposed that the energy accumulator be arranged with its effective direction of force substantially transverse to the swiveling plane of the sheet. The two connection ends of the energy accumulator are constructed as three-dimensionally acting rolling joints.

Abstract: The invention provides for the use of oligodeoxynucleotide decoys for example E2F dsDNA for the prophylactic or therapeutic treatment of diseases associated with the binding of endogenous transcription factors including E2F, AP-1 and NFKappaB to genes involved in cell growth, differentiation and signalling or to viral genes. By inhibiting endogenous trans-activating factors from binding transcription regulatory regions, the decoys modulate gene expression and thereby regulating pathological processes including inflammation, intimal hyperplasia, angiogenesis, neoplasia, immune responses and viral infection. The decoys are administered in amounts and under conditions whereby binding of the endogenous transcription factor to the endogenous transcription factor to the endogenous gene is effectively competitively inhibited without sufficient host toxicity. The subject compositions comprise the decoy molecules in a context which provides for pharmacokinetics sufficient for effective therapeutic use.
