Title: Method  for  assessment of the immunoregulatory status of the mononuclear leukocyte immune system
Inventor: ANDERSON JEFFREY E
IPC: G01N33/50
Filed: 1987-08-12
Granted: 1995-07-19
Abstract: The ability of mononuclear leukocytes to respond to standard stimuli is measured based on the expression of activation antigens on mononuclear cell subclasses. In a preferred embodiment, a sample of mononuclear leukocytes is cultured for up to 24 hours with a standard stimulus known to activate such cells. After culturing, aliquots of the cells are incubated with fluorophore-conjugated monoclonal antibodies to antigenic determinants of a particular mononuclear subclass and different fluorophore-conjugated monoclonal antibodies to particular activation antigens. The incubated aliquots are analyzed on a flow cytofluorometer, whereby each cell is illuminated with a particular light (e.g. argon ion laser), which detects and measures forward light scatter, orthogonal light scatter and two different wavelengths of light emitted from the fluorophores. These parameters are used to identify and enumerate the cells of different subclasses present within the mononuclear leukocyte sample, the cells of said subclasses which have been induced to express a particular activation antigen and the quantity of the activation antigen on said cells. An analysis of these enumerations is shown to correlate with the immunoregulatory status of the mononuclear leukocyte immune system. Data generation and analysis can be performed using a flow cytofluorometric apparatus with data and control signal processing to ensure accuracy and reproducibility of the results of the assay.

Abstract: The clamping device is intended in particular for clamping sheet metal in position and consists of two clamping jaws (2, 3) which are arranged on a holder (1) for an actuating element (1') in such a way as to be movable relative to one another into closed and open position and of which the clamping jaw (2) provided with a control lever (13) is coupled to the actuating member of the actuating element (1') pivotably mounted on the holder (1). Here, the supporting clamping jaw (3) is arranged on the holder (1) in such a way that it can be adjusted in angle independently of the clamping jaw (2) and can be fixed in different positions. The control lever (13) of the clamping jaw (2) is designed in such a way that it can likewise be adjusted in angle relative to this clamping jaw (2) and can be fixed in different positions. <IMAGE>

Title: Power converter assembly for coupling two kinds of high-voltage three-phase networks together
IPC: H01L25/10
Filed: 1988-06-28
Granted: 1992-03-11
Abstract: The converter system couples two high voltage three-phase networks. Two converter transformers are associated with each network to be coupled. Each transformer has secondary windings. One secondary winding associated with a first network is Y-connected while the other is delta-connected. The converter transformers operate on a three-phase full wave rectifier with twelve semiconductor rectifier components. The arrangement of valve towers, a stacking of semiconductor components, is designed to keep a base area or a so-called valve housing in which the valve towers are accommodated as small as possible. The semiconductor components are arranged in uniform modular assemblies and may be stacked as modular components having insulating spacings between components which are also uniform. A tower of uniform modules is formed in association with each of the phases of the three-phase secondary windings of the converter transformers. The number of modules defines the number of stories of the tower. The number of modules is varied in accordance with the desired power throughput. The system provides DC short couplers for asynchronous networks of different powers while uitilizing the same basic design concept so that a power match can be made by a corresponding number of modules forming a tower with the same insulating spacings in a standardized design.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of extruding plastic materials in which the gap width in the shear section of the extruder between the extruder screw and the barrel surrounding the latter in the shear section is set by the conical surfaces on extruder screw and barrel defining the gap width being displaced in relation to one another. The method according to the invention provides for this in that, before conveying into the shear gap, the plastic material is preplasticised at a gap radius which corresponds to the entry radius into the shear gap. In the extruder for implementing the method, the radius of the extruder screw in this case corresponds to the respective larger or smaller connecting radius on the conically running shear section. Preferred applications are the processing of blended plastics and, in particular, recycling plastics. <IMAGE>

Title: Infinitely variable positive mechanical transmission
IPC: F16H47/04
Filed: 1988-06-23
Granted: 1993-09-01
Abstract: A torque converter (300) having a housing (301) containing an hydraulic chamber (315) and a gear chamber (313). The hydraulic chamber is formed as several isolated sub chambers (377). A rotor (350) with inwardly raised vanes or pawls (355) is provided in the chamber, the pawls extendible into the sub chambers an amount depending on the relative speed of rotation between the housing and rotor. The torque converter uses the interaction of the pawls with static fluid in the sub chambers to vary the torque responsive to the sensed output load as well as to the speed of rotation of the input shaft (321). A one way brake may be provided to ensure output power is transmitted in the desired direction. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A table (11) can be stopped in a vertical movement with respect to a fixed guide (15) by selectively engaging an engagement and locking element (21) in form of a angled lever having a control arm (33) and a stopping and locking arm (31) with adjustment and stop elements (19) secured on the vertically extending second part (15). Upon movement from a predetermined position, the control arm (33) is engaged in a guide track (51) of the engagement and locking element, permitting unlimited movement in a direction away from an adjustment and stopping shoulder (37) on the abutment and stop element. Upon reverse direction, however, the control arm engages a first can (47) which moves the locking arm (31) against the abutment shoulder (37). To release the locking arm from the abutment shoulder, it is only necessary to make a short movement counter the locking direction which will engage the control arm in a second cam to release the lock, and the guide track (51) then guides the locking arm of the engagement and locking element clear of the adjustment and stopping shoulder upon again reversing direction of movement.

Granted: 1993-02-17
Abstract: The handle (6) is locked in the inactive position by a spring-tensioned (19) plunger (9) carrying a striking pin (15). When the handle (6) is grasped after removing the locking pin (9), the weight of the container (1) causes the handle (6) to pivot in the working position. As it pivots, an operating member (13) on this handle acts on the plunger (14) and causes the cartridge (17) containing the compressed inert gas to be opened, which then expands into the container (1). As the handle (6) reaches the end of its stroke, the operating member (13) ceases to act on the plunger (14), which returns to its initial position under the action of its spring (19). The handle (6) is then immobilised by this plunger. To release it, it is a simple matter, after removing the cover, to extract the cartridge (17) and engage a spanner (30) with a thread (20) on the plunger (14) and pull to free the handle which is then able to return to the inactive position. <IMAGE>

Title: Pusher grate installation for the heat treatment of bulk material
IPC: F27B21/02
Filed: 1989-12-16
Granted: 1993-04-14
Abstract: The heat treatment of solids by combustion, cooling, or the like with the aid of gas may take place on a grate conveying such solids while the gas is passed through openings in the surface of the grate. In order to provide lateral clearances of such grates with the same order of narrowness as the majority of the grate's openings, the mobile framework of the grate is suspended by tension elements inclined at an angle of at least 3 degrees relative to the perpendicular. If the mobile frame deviates from a straight course, the inclined suspension creates a centering force guiding the mobile frame without mechanical contact and wear. As a result, the lateral clearances for thermal expansion and building tolerances are reduced from about 20 to 2 mm.
