Abstract: The inking-pad printing press proposed has an ink reservoir (7) which is open underneath and which is pressed by a piston/cylinder unit on to a mobile printing plate (6). The reservoir (7) is connected by an articulated joint to the piston (15) of the piston/cylinder unit (12), the articulated joint being located inside the reservoir (7), near the upper surface of the printing plate (6). If the upper surface of the printing plate (6) is inclined at an angle, the ink reservoir (7) can adjust itself in any direction to the plate inclination so that a uniform pressure is exerted by the whole of the end of the ink reservoir (7). Thus even if the upper surface of the printing plate is inclined, the printing quality is excellent.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for cleaning exhaust air containing noxious substances by heterogeneous catalysis, in which the exhaust air flows, under the action of pressure and suction, past a solid element coated with catalyst material and the noxious substances are oxidised on contact with the catalyst surface to give environmentally acceptable gaseous reaction products. To provide an improved process, by means of which exhaust air containing noxious substances at a noxious substance concentration of less than 100 mg/m<3> of exhaust air, in particular for a concentration of less than 10 mg/m<3>, can be purified with good efficiency and at low energy consumption, it is proposed to feed the exhaust air at room temperature to the element and the noxious substances are adsorptively attached to the element and, at the latest after the element has been loaded with the maximum theoretically possible loading capacity, the adsorbed noxious substances are catalytically burned in the known manner by direct heating of the element to the required process temperature by applying an electric voltage to the element. The element (6) consists of a heatable metallic fabric band (1) having a mesh width of less than 1 mm and a wire thickness of less than 0.1 mm, and have a thin layer of grown crystals (2, 5) which are coated with the catalyst material (4). Two cable connections (8, 9) for the electric heating are also provided. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Selon le mode préféré de réalisation de l'invention, on décrit un propulseur à biergol refroidi (70) servant à commander l'orientation et la position sur orbite d'un véhicule spatial. Le propulseur à biergol refroidi (70) utilise un propergol liquide ainsi qu'un comburant liquide. Le propergol liquide est décomposé dans une première chambre (72) comprenant un lit catalytique d'un matériau de décomposition (74), et produit au moins un gas de réaction qui s'écoule dans une seconde chambre de réaction (90). Celle-ci (90) est chauffée par le gaz de réaction, mais refroidie par le comburant liquide qui s'écoule à travers des passages de refroidissement (92, 94, 98 et 102) qui mettent le comburant en rapport d'échange thermique avec la seconde chambre de réaction (90). Au cours de l'échange thermique, la chaleur est transférée de la seconde chambre de réaction (90) au comburant, et celui-ci se transforme en gaz. Le comburant gazeux alimente une seconde chambre de réaction (90) afin d'entrer en réaction secondaire avec le gaz deréaction.

Abstract: The purpose of the invention is to obtain a drive for a web-fed multi-colour rotary press whose performance is adaptable to the intended production capacity. This is obtained by the fact that in a plurality of superimposed printing mechanisms constituting printing units (7-18) each has a separate drive motor coupled via a clutch (27) and a gear (25) to an upright shaft (28). If a motor breaks down, the power can be taken via the drive of another printing mechanism.

Abstract: A process incorporating chlorine dioxide precursors into a polymer or oligomer film that is coated onto various substrates. Controlled release is accomplished by absorption of moisture from the environment. An amine (primary, secondary, or tertiary amines substituted with 2-hydroxy or 2-carboxyamido ethylene groups) is dissolved or suspended into a melt consisting of monomers capable of strong hydrogen bonding. An apolar phase containing a water hydrolyzable acid anhydride or silane terminated acid is then blended with the polar amine containing phase to produce a two phase system of arbitrary degree of dispersion. Reacting dry chlorine dioxide or chlorine dioxide solutions in apolar solvents with the oligomer or polymer film produces an iminium chlorite salt. The chlorine dioxide is released when the iminium chlorite loaded polymer is hydrated by ambient moisture.

Abstract: A polypeptide substance isolated from rat serum which, upon administration to rats incapable of producing PTH (parathyroidectomized rats), produces an increase in the observed bone mineral apposition rate. The substance has been isolated in two forms, a first larger polypeptide having a molecular weight about twice that of a second smaller polypeptide. The first eleven amino acids of the sequence of the smaller polypeptide have been determined to be Gly Pro Gly Gly Ala Gly Glu Thr Lys Pro Ile. The first seven amino acids of the larger polypeptide have been determined to be Gly Pro Gly Gly Ala Gly Glu. The larger polypeptide might be the dimer of the smaller peptide. A nucleic acid probe, based on the amino acid sequence of the rat peptide was used to screen a human liver cDNA fetal library. A polypeptide was thus chemically synthesized according to the sequence Gly Ile Gly Lys Arg Thr Asn Glu His Thr Ala Asp Cys Lys Ile Lys Pro Asn Thr Leu His Lys Lys Ala Ala Glu Thr Leu Met Val Leu Asp Gln Asn Gln Pro. The bone apposition rate in rats increases in a dose dependent fashion upon administration of this chemically synthesized compound.

Abstract: An optical fiber made up of a core for propagating the light and a clad covering the core for confining the light propagated in the core. The optical fiber has a tapering protrusion at the apex for entrance and exiting of light. The optical fiber is used in a photon scanning tunneling microscope detecting the evanescent light localized in an area smaller in size than the wavelength of light on the surface of a sample as an optical probe disposed in proximity to the surface of the sample for scattering the evanescent light for detecting the scattered light. The optical fiber is optically coupled to an optical waveguide for constituting an optically coupled element. With this optically coupled element, a protrusion of the optical fiber operates as a collection unit for collecting the light propagated in the core. The light collected by the protrusion enters the optical waveguide. <IMAGE>
