Abstract: A sliding plate support structure for a current collector includes at least one bow member (4) elastically supporting a number of sliding plate pieces (1a, 1b, 1c) which are in contact with current supply wires. A leaf spring body (2) made of an electrically conductive elastic material is detachably mounted on the bow member (4). A plurality of sliding plate fixing portions are secured to the leaf spring body in such a way that the sliding plate support structure prevents steps or difference in height occurring at adjacent ends of the sliding plate pieces (1a, 1b, 1c) and prevents groove-shaped wearing and vibration at the adjacent ends of the sliding pieces.

Abstract: A holographic device and method encrypts a time dependent data signal, s(t), by a complex time dependent phase shifting signal. This produces a new signal whose modulus is equal the absolute value of the data signal, s(t), but has widely spread the frequency of the data signal. This new complex signal is mathematically transformed, producing an amplitude and phase spectrum (or a real and imaginary transform spectrum) of signal components. The amplitude and phase signals are modulated into a radio frequency carrier (or some other radiating source) as quadrature components and transmitted. At the receiver, the quadrature signals are separated into an amplitude and phase components which are then mathematically inverse transformed. The result is a complex signal with a real and imaginary components. The resulting signal is an accurate representation of the original data signal if a complete signal is recovered. If only a portion of the frequencies transmitted are recovered, the modulus is still represents the data signal, but may have artifacts frequencies in the signal. The modulus may then be filtered to remove these artifact frequencies, recovering the reconstructed data signal.

Abstract: An antibody to tumour necrosis factor- alpha  (anti-TNF) and an antibody to bacterial lipopolysaccharide (anti-LPS) used together in a neutropenic rat model of sepsis are shown to enhance survival of the rats relative to either antibody used alone. Pharmaceutical products including each of the components are therefore of utility in therapy of sepsis. The anti-LPS antibody included may be specific for the O-specific chain of a particular bacterial lipopolysaccharide (serotype specific antibody) but preferably recognises the core glycolipid of lipopolysaccharide.

Abstract: A receiver for pseudorandom noise (PRN) encoded signals consisting of a sampling circuit and multiple channel circuits, with each channel circuit including a carrier and code synchronizing circuit and multiple digital correlators with dynamically adjustable code delay spacing. The sampling circuit provides high-rate digital samples of the incoming composite signal to each receiver channel. Within each channel, the synchronizing circuit detects cycle slips in a locally generated carrier reference signal as well as phase drift in a locally generated PRN code signal. The correlators compare the digital samples with a locally generated PRN code to produce early, late, and/or punctual correlation signals which are used to adjust the local PRN code. A non-linear sampling technique may be used to provide increased sensitivity in the presence of continuous wave interfering signals.
