Abstract: A dental handpiece (10) is provided with a drive motor (13), a drive shaft (12) operatively affixed to the drive motor (13) at one end of the drive shaft (12). A dental tool (11) is operatively affixed at the other end of the drive shaft (12). The drive shaft (12) is journaled within an axial displacement bearing (60), such that manipulated rotation of the dental tool (11) causes a first drive shaft section (61) to be axially displaced from and relative to a second drive shaft section (62). The axial displacement bearing (60) is caused to contact a bearing (51) thereby causing the drive shaft (12) to bind due to the frictional forces generated by that contact. This allows sufficient force such that the dental tool (11) can be disengaged from the handpiece (10).

Abstract: The invention concerns an aircraft with electric flight control system, wherein a device enables the load applied on the wing system to be lightened during a lateral roll maneuver, by comparing the roll control (X) with a threshold (X%) and by filtering said control. Through such an action on the roll control, it is possible to anticipate the load increases occurring on the wing system, and to reduce same. The loads can thus be maintained below a maximum value of the wing system dimensioning, in case of too great roll control relative to the use provided for the plane, and therefore to limit oversizing of the wing system.

Title: Reduction of chemical noise in a maldi mass spectrometer by in-trap photodissociation of matrix cluster ions
Inventor: KOVTOUN VIATCHESLAV V
IPC: B01D59/44
Filed: 2006-08-11
Granted: 2011-04-19
Abstract: A MALDI mass spectrometer includes a radiation source, such as a gas or solid state laser, that emits a beam of radiation (typically in the UV or IR  wavelengths) directed along the central axis of a linear ion trap in which analyte ions and matrix cluster ions are confined. The radiation beam has a wavelength that is strongly absorbed by the matrix cluster ions. The absorption of radiation by the matrix cluster ions produces dissociation of the matrix cluster ion into fragments having mass-to-charge ratios that lie below a mass-to-charge ratio range of interest. Thus, chemical noise associated with matrix cluster ions is reduced or eliminated.
