Abstract: A magnetic recording and reproducing apparatus records audio signals digitized by rotary heads (9, 10) on a magnetic tape (12), and reproduces the recorded audio signals. Clock signals and time code data are extracted from externally inputted time code signals by means of a demodulating circuit (72), and phase difference between the frame clock signals and the reference signal is detected by a phase difference detecting circuit (74). A microcomputer (23) assigns the phase difference information and the time code data to sub code packs and stores the same in the memory circuit (40). The stored phase difference information and the time code data are recorded on the magnetic tape. In reproduction, the microcomputer outputs the original time code signals responsive to the reproduced phase difference information and the time code data.

Abstract: The invention is a cyclic proces for removing NO x  and SO X  from a gas stream. The gas stream is scrubbed with an aqueous reaction solution containing an organic, water-soluble, polymeric chelate containing a polyvalent metal ion. The NO X  is absorbed and in the presence of SO x , the imidodisulfonate is formed. The aqueous reaction solution containing chelate and imidodisulfonate is contacted with a first separation membrane, wherein calcium oxide is added to the first permeate stream, resulting in the precipitation of calcium sulfite. The calcium sulfite is filtered from the first permeate stream, the first permeate stream combined with the first non-permeate stream, and the combined stream contacted with a second separation membrane which removes a portion. of the water and other low molecular weight materials. The remaining non-permeate stream containing chelate is recycled to the scrubber. Water-soluble alkali is added to the process as needed.

Abstract: A method and catheter for use in practising the method are provided by which a highly concentrated medication or chemotherapeutic agent can be applied locally under sufficient pressure to cause the medication or agent to penetrate into the localized tissue. The total volume of medication or agent is quite small, well below levels that might cause an adverse reaction in other parts of the body. The catheter includes a thin walled flexible balloon (16) having a plurality of minute holes (29) through which medication may flow at a low flow rate. The balloon (16) is inflated with the medication under pressure and the low flow rate of the order of a few ccs per minute is controlled by the minute holes (29) in the balloon (16). In practising the method of the invention, the balloon (16) is selected such that its inflated diameter will correspond to or be slightly greater than the diameter of the lumen into which it is to be placed so that when the balloon (16) is inflated, it will contact intimately the surface of the lumen. Inflation of the balloon (16) with the medication will cause a thin film to spread between the balloon (16) and the lumen, the film being maintained under a sufficient pressure to penetrate significantly the surrounding tissue with a high concentration of medication. The quantity of medication that ultimately flows free into the lumen is quite small and is insufficient to cause any other damage to the patient.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for contacting particulate solid matter with a fluid in a pressure vessel (10) through which the fluid continuously moves at high, supercritical, pressure while the particulate solid matter is periodically moved via isolatable pressurizable vessels (12,16) which are periodically pressurized and depressurized to and from the supercritical pressure to facilitate periodic movement of the particulate solids between the pressure vessel and the isolatable pressurizable vessels. A supply of the fluid is maintained at an intermediate pressure at which the fluid exists in both the liquid and gaseous states. The pressurizable vessels are raised to supercritical pressure by first using intermediate pressure fluid in the gaseous state and then in the liquid state, followed by introducing fluid at the supercritical pressure. The vessels are de­pressurized by first venting and then pumping to the intermediate pressure fluid supply.

Abstract: Problems exist in known forms of steerable mobile load carriers, e.g. shopping trolleys. Trolleys with four swivel castors (1.4) are difficult to steer, particularly on slopes, and if two castors are fixed to improve steering, a stack of trolleys is very difficult to manoeuvre. 
     An arrangement is therefore used in which one pair of castors (3.4) are normally inhibited from swivelling, but are released when nested. In the normal state, each of these castors is prevented from swivelling in a respective one of two opposite directions but allowed to swivel in the other direction. This arrangement ensures good reverse manoeuvrability while providing both improved control over forward movement and the desired manoeuvrability of a trolley stack.
