Abstract: The rate and character of mammalian hair growth is altered by the topical application to the skin of a composition containing an organic inhibitor of the enzyme L-asparagine synthetase. A topical composition for reducing the rate and altering the character of mammalian hair growth comprises a non-toxic dermatologically acceptable vehicle and from 0.1 to 30 % based on the total weight of the composition of an organic inhibitor of L-asparagine synthetase.

Abstract: A safety shield assembly is provided for safely enclosing a needle cannula. The safety shield assembly includes an inner shield that is slidably movable along the needle cannula. The inner shield includes a locking structure which locks the inner shield with respect to the distal end of the needle cannula. The safety shield assembly alsoincludes an outer shield that is in releasable engagememt with the inner shield. The outer shield will separate from the inner shield in response to excessive force exerted thereon, and hence avoids failure of the structure locking the inner shield to the needle cannula.

Abstract: The invention relates to a neck clip bottle carrier (10) having angled side panels (16, 18) of two-ply construction. The lower edges of openings (46) in the side panels engage the underside of bottle flanges to support the bottles. The outer ply of one of the side panels is divided into flaps (48) which overlie tear-away sections (68) in the underlying inner ply. The flaps (48) are adhered to lower portions of the tear-away sections. When the tear-away sections are separated, the overlying flaps pivot upwardly to a point permitting removal of the associated bottle. The tear-away sections are designed so as not to cause failure of the carrier under high loadings.

Abstract: A Process for combusting sulfur vapor released from a sulfur bearing material, comprising:     (a)  introducing a sulfur bearing material into a furnace having a combustion zone;     (b)  ejecting at least one fuel stream with or without a substoichiometric amount of at least one primary oxidant stream and combusting said at least one fuel stream with the substoichiometric amount of the primary oxidant stream or ambient gas in the combustion zone to produce heat sufficient to release some sulfur vapor from the sulfur bearing material and to form combustion products containing unburned fuel;     (c)  ejecting at least one secondary oxidant stream angled away or spaced from the fuel stream and primary oxidant stream;     (d)  causing a recirculating flow within the combustion zone to dilute at least a portion of the combustion products, secondary oxidant, sulfur vapor, unburned fuel and ambient gas in the furnace; and (e)  combusting the sulfur vapor and the unburned fuel with said secondary oxidant.  Alternatively, the fuel stream may be introduced with a superstoichiometric amount of the primary oxidant stream, with or without the secondary oxidant, such that excess oxygen is reacted with sulfur vapor released from the sulfur bearing material to produce more heat.

Abstract: A high frequency amplifier containing: a constant envelope signal generation circuit for transforming an input signal to form two constant envelope signals where phases of the constant envelope signals correspond to an amplitude of an envelope of the input signal; two amplifying circuits for separately amplifying two constant envelope signals; and a power synthesizing circuit for synthesizing the first and second amplified signals to generate an amplified signal of the input electric signal, and reflecting remaining components of the first and second amplified signals which remaining components remain in the above synthesizing operation, toward the first and second amplifying circuits. Further, an input impedance of the power synthesizing circuit may be controlled by shifting phases of the above reflected components by respectively predetermined amounts, or by adaptively shifting phases of the above reflected components responding to an input level, so that a total efficiency of the high frequency amplifier is maximized. The high frequency amplifier may contain, instead of the above two amplifying circuits and the power synthesizing circuit, a circuit for inverting a phase of one of the two constant envelope signals; and a single-ended push-pull amplifier circuit for receiving the other of the two constant envelope signals, and an output of the phase inversion circuit, and synthesizing the received signals to generate an amplified signal of the input electric signal.

Abstract: A tamper proof gun lock is provided, which consists of a double dummy cartridge adapted to be received in a firing chamber of a gun.  A keeper is adapted to be inserted into a bore of a barrel of the gun.  A tool is insertable into the barrel of the gun, to engage with the keeper.  In a first instance, the tool can cause the keeper to connect to one portion of the double dummy cartridge, making the gun inoperable by preventing the gun from being fired.     In a second instance, the tool can cause the keeper to disconnected from the one portion of the double dummy cartridge, thus allowing the keeper to be removed from the barrel and the double dummy cartridge to be removed from the firing chamber of the gun, making the gun operable to be fired.

Filed: 1995-06-26
Granted: 1999-08-17
Abstract: For making in a parallel computer system an interconnection network transfer data sequences, each composed of consecutive packets, from input ports (17) to a destination port indicated among output ports (19) by a routing address specified by a leading packet of each data sequence, control registers (31) hold the routing address of a privileged sequence determined by arbiters (39) in response to such addresses held in the control registers and stored in control buffers (33),  Data of the consecutive packets of the privileged sequence are simultaneously stored in and produced from data buffers (37).  Controlled by the arbiters, input selectors (41, 43) select the data for delivery to the destination port through output buffers (55) and output selectors (57) controlled by a selector operating arrangement (59-63).          When the data of the consecutive packets are not yet wholly stored in the data buffers, the input selectors select only those already stored in the data buffers and then select the data of remaining ones of the consecutive packets as soon as they reach the data buffers.

Abstract: A timber beam hanger connects a first member,  e.g.  a horizontal or inclined beam, to a second member, e.g. a horizontal or inclined beam disposed perpendicularly or obliquely to the first beam, or a vertical post or wall. The beam hanger comprises a generally vertical web,  an upper flange extending from an upper edge of the web, a seat  extending  from  a  lower  edge  of  the  web  and  a connector.    The  upper  flange  and  seat  are  usually rectangular  and  disposed  parallel  to  each  other  and normally to the web.   The upper flange is secured to an upper  face  of  the  first  member,  and  the  connector cooperates with the upper flange and is secured to the second member.   A joint face of the first member has a generally vertical slit intersecting the upper face and receiving the web therein.  The joint face has a generally horizontal slit intersected by the vertical slit at a position remote from the upper face and receiving the seat therein.  Weight of the beam is carried on the seat and a variety of connectors connect the beam hanger to the second beam or post. When installed, most of the beam hanger is enclosed in the slits of the first member and thus is essentially invisible when viewed from beneath or sideways of the beam.

Abstract: L'invention a pour objet des vaccins à base de produits d'agents pathogènes extracellulaires en majorité abondants, leurs procédés de fabrication et leur utilisation. Les produits extracellulaires les plus répandus ou en majorité abondants d'un agent pathogène cible sont sélectionnés indépendamment de leur immunogénicité moléculaire absolue et utilisés comme vaccins pour stimuler une réponse immunitaire protectrice chez des hôtes mammifères contre une infection consécutive à l'agent pathogène cible. On peut caractériser et distinguer des produits extracellulaires à majorité abondants par leurs séquences respectives d'acides aminés à extrémité N-terminale. Les vaccins pouvant comporter différentes combinaisons de produits extracellulaires, l'invention concerne des compositions immunothérapeutiques à large spectre d'efficacité. Les vaccins ainsi obtenus peuvent être utilisés non seulement contre d'autres agents infectieux mais aussi pour stimuler une réponse immunitaire efficace contre les agents pathogènes intracellulaires et en particulier contre le bacille de Koch.
