Title: Mounting of an eddy current brake on a bogie of a rail vehicle
Inventor: KERSCHER ALBERT
IPC: B61H7/08
Filed: 1997-04-18
Abstract: The invention concerns a system for suspending an eddy-current brake on a rail vehicle bogie, longitudinal frame girders being provided on both longitudinal sides of the bogie and extending therefrom. Lifting devices, which each move brake magnets carried by a brake carrier between the lowered braking position at a constant air gap from the rail and the raised releasing position, act on the longitudinal frame girders. At their front ends, the brake carriers (1) are equipped with pivotable arms (9) whose outer ends are guided in a vertically movable manner in housings (7) connected to the axle bearings. In order to minimize wear, the ends located in the housings support bearing elements in the form of rollers (17) or sliding blocks (23) which, in the lowered braking position of the brake carrier, rest on supports (19, 27) at the base of the housing and can be moved relative to these supports.

In the method, the first supporting device supports the glass sheet to maintain its planar configuration at the heating stage required for tempering, wherein the glass sheet is being heated to the tempering temperature. During heating, the glass sheet is further supported by a pressure difference imposed on the opposite surfaces of the glass sheet. After heating, the glass sheet is moved to the second supporting device to bend to the bending configuration determined by the second supporting device, followed by the tempering stage.

Filed: 1999-05-03
Abstract: The invention relates to a method of measuring signal timing and a CDMA radio system implementing the method. Data on at least one code channel transmitted by a neighbour base station (104, 106) is conveyed to a terminal (100) via a serving base station (102). On the basis of these data, the terminal (100) determines at least the spreading code of each said code channel and an estimate of the symbol timing in respect of the timing of the serving base station (102). The terminal utilizes at least some of the code channels of the neighbour base station (104, 106) to measure the signal timing of the neighbour base station (104, 106). On the basis of the timing, e.g. the location of the terminal (100) is determined.

Title: New bacillus thuringiensis strains and their insecticidal proteins
Inventor: LAMBERT BART
IPC: A01N63/50
Filed: 1993-07-12
Abstract: Four novel Bacillus thuringiensis strains, which are deposited at the BCCM-LMG under accession nos. LMG P-12592, LMG P-12593, LMG P-12594, and LMG P-13493, produce new crystal proteins during sporulation that are toxic to Lepidoptera, more particularly against Noctuidae such as Spodoptera spp. and Agrotis ipsilon, against Pyralidae such as Ostrinta nubilalis, and against Yponomeutidae such as Plutella xylostella, and that are encoded by a novel gene. The crystal proteins contain protoxins, which can yield a toxin as trypsin-digestion product. A plant, the genome of which is transformed with a DNA sequence that comes from either one of the strains and that encodes its respective toxin, is resistant to Lepidoptera. Each strain, itself, or its crystals, crystal proteins, protoxin or toxin can be used as the active ingredient in an insecticidal composition for combatting Lepidoptera.

Title: Method for recovering purified growth hormones from genetically engineered microorganisms
Inventor: BARTFELD DANIEL
IPC: C07K14/61
Filed: 1985-08-16
Abstract: This invention concerns a method for recovering a purified eucaryotic growth hormone or an analog thereof from a bacterial cell in which the growth hormone or analog has been produced by means of expression of a DNA sequence encoding the hormone or analog. The method involves the following steps: (a) disrupting the cell wall of the bacterial cell or fragments thereof to produce a lysate; (b) separating a precipitate containing particulate and insoluble material from the lysate; (c) preparing suspension of the separated precipitate in an appropriate buffer solution; (d) treating the suspension to effect contact between liquid and solids; (e) separating partially or completely precipitated material from the liquid-solids contacted suspension; (f) solubilizing the separated precipitate in a sufficient amount of water and adjusting the pH to a suitable alkaline pH to form a solution; (g) separating the solubilized hormone or analog from other cellular components by ultrafiltration under suitable conditions to produce an ultrafiltrate containing the hormone or analog and a retentate, and (h) treating the solubilized hormone or analog so as to concentrate the hormone or analog and thereby recover purified hormone or analog. Separations may be effected by ultrafiltration or centrifugation. Sonication as well as the ultrafiltration in step (i) may be repeated. Additionally, most of the process steps may be performed in a continuous flow and may be automated. Suitable hormone-producing bacterial cells for use in this invention include genetically modified strains of Escherichia coli. Growth hormones which can be recovered and purified using this invention include bovine, porcine, chicken, and human growth hormones, and analogs thereof.

Title: Castable infrared illuminant compositions
Inventor: NIELSON DANIEL B
IPC: F21K5/00
Filed: 1993-06-14
Abstract: Compositions are provided which, when burned, produce significant levels of infrared radiation, but only limited levels of visible radiation. The basic components of the compositions include a binder, an oxidizer, and a fuel, where the binder also acts the fuel. Preferred oxidizers include those compounds which produce large quantities of infrared radiation when the flare composition is burned. Such oxidizers include potassium nitrate, cesium nitrate, rubidium nitrate, and combinations of these compounds. Selection of the binder is important in order to provide the composition with the desirable characteristics identified above. The binder of the present invention does not produce significant soot. At the same time, the binder serves to form a composition which is processible, avoids chunking, and is compatible with the oxidizers used. It has been found that polymer binders which include relatively short carbon chains (1-6 continuous carbon atoms) are preferred. Examples of such polymers include polyesters, polyethers, polyamides, and polyamines.
