Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for machining the surface of a thin-walled hollow cylinder (8) by means of a laser beam (4), striking the hollow cylinder (8) at least approximately radially and movable in its longitudinal direction, in particular for producing a rotary screen. In this arrangement, the hollow cylinder (8) is rotatably mounted at its axial ends by means of two bearing devices (9, 10), a supporting bearing (21) which surrounds the hollow cylinder (8) being present between the bearing devices (9, 10). This supporting bearing (21) is located at a predetermined axial position of the hollow cylinder (8) and is fixed in place there. Furthermore, it is designed in such a way that it leaves at least one path clear along which the laser beam (8) moves, so that a pattern produced on the hollow cylinder (8) is not interrupted by the supporting bearing (21). Vibrations occurring in the hollow cylinder (8) can be dampened by the supporting bearing (21) to such an extent that the pattern can be produced without distortions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a variable speed geared motor (50) constructed by combining an inverter motor (60) controllable in rotational speed by inverter drive with a gear reducer (70), the gear reducer (70) is of a two-stage type, and a reduction ratio i of the gear reducer (70) is suppressed so that i </= N holds where N stands for a maximum reduction ratio of the inverter motor (60) at which a constant torque characteristic can be ensured. Further, in a series of variable speed geared motors (50) each satisfying the above conditions, a common ratio (R) of a series of reduction ratios i of the variable speed geared motors is set to 1.2 - 1.5. For example, the series is set to 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8. Accordingly, the geared motor (50) can be constructed lightly in weight, compactly, and at low costs, and it can be economically used in a rotational speed region of 200 - 900 rpm which is an ordinary region in driving of a pump or a high-speed conveyor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for depalletising goods, such as piece goods, comprising a gripping device (1) having a number of suction cups (6) which in the rest position lie in one plane, and which are connected in a controllable manner to a vacuum source for the vacuum suction of the suction cups (6), and a movement device for moving the gripping device, each suction cup being disposed at one end of an essentially rod-shaped element (4) which is movable back and forth in its lengthwise direction. The suction cups are disposed so close to each other that together they form, as it were, a gripper surface, and that each suction cup is movable back and forth by means of the rod-shaped element (4), independently of the adjacent suction cups, essentially at right angles to the gripper surface. The distance over which a suction cup is movable back and forth is at least half, and is preferably greater than, the distance between adjacent suction cups. Means are also provided for each suction cup so that if there is no contact or inadequate contact between a suction cup and the article to be gripped, the connection between said suction cup and the vacuum source is shut off, with the result that the suction cups are provided with a vacuum independently of each other. The device also has sensor devices which deliver a first signal in order to bring the gripper gradually to a standstill as soon as a suction cup has moved from its rest position over a first predetermined distance, and a second signal in order to bring the gripper abruptly to a standstill as soon as the suction cup has moved over a second predetermined, greater distance. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for the instant intraoperative detection and biopsy of metastatic cancer using fluorescence spectroscopy. A photosensitizing agent selectively retained by cancerous tissue is administered prior to surgery. A fiberoptic probe (1) integrated with a biopsy device (2) illuminates the examined tissue and causes fluorescence which is recorded by a spectrograph and plotted as a spectral curve. The intensity ratio (S1/S2) for the fluorescence from the photosensitizing agent (S1) and autofluorescence (S2) for the examined tissue is compared with the intensity ratio at the same wavelengths for primary tumor and normal tissue. Tissue that displays an intensity ratio different from that of normal tissue can immediately be analyzed for the depth of tumor involvement and then excised for histological examination using the biopsy device. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An in vitro culture system for the perpetuation of an unlimited number of neural progenitor cells. Progenitor cells are isolated from particular neural regions and proliferated in suspension cultures in the presence of growth factors. The progenitor cells can be induced to differentiate into neurons and glial cells. The ability to perpetuate fetal progenitor cells allows for production of a large supply of tissue from a minimal number of fetuses for transplantation into an animal with neurodegeneration. The use of juvenile and adult cells for generating progenitors would eliminate the need to obtain fetal tissue and may allow for patient to supply his own progenitors. Such an approach would eliminate the ethical problem of obtaining fetal neuronal tissue as well as the problem of tissue rejection and the required use of immunosuppressive drugs.

Abstract: A combination of a vacuum extraction source (3) (to withdraw volatilized contaminants and fluids) and electric current (to heat in situ volatile contaminants and geologic strata) to remove contaminants from the vadose zone. Raising the soil temperature and thereby imparting heat energy to the contaminants makes the vacuum extraction source (3) of the contaminants more effective. Also, heating certain geologic strata, such as a clay, that resist vacuum air flow, tends to speed volatilization within such strata, speed the drying of such strata, and improve the effectiveness of the vacuum extraction source (3) therein. Various placement strategies for electrodes (7) are used in this invention to accommodate specific site conditions.
