Abstract: A method and apparatus for a two speed strap take up usable in a strapping machine. The two speed strap take up apparatus generally comprises a high speed roller assembly (20) driven by a high speed drive shaft (28), a low speed roller assembly (40) driven by a low speed drive shaft (48), a shaft rotation reduction assembly (56) interconnecting the high speed drive shaft (28) and the low speed drive shaft (48), and a roller clutch assembly (220) inter-connecting the shaft rotation reduction assembly (56) and the low speed drive shaft (48). An input clutch assembly (250) may inter-connect the high speed drive shaft (28) and an input drive means. In operation, a strap (12) is disposed between and frictionally engaged by a high speed roller (22) of the high speed roller assembly (20) and a low speed roller (42) of the low speed roller assembly (40). The low speed roller (42) is then driven in rotation by the high speed roller (22). When a first tension is applied to the strap (12), the high speed roller (22) slips relative to the high speed drive shaft (28) until the roller clutch (220) inter-connecting the shaft rotation reduction assembly (56) and the low speed drive shaft (48) engages and rotates the low speed drive shaft (48) at a reduced rotation rate relative to the rotation rate of the high speed drive shaft (28). The strap (12) is now driven by both rollers (22, 42) at the reduced rotation rate as the high speed roller (22) slips relative to the high speed drive shaft (28). When a second tension, greater than the first tension, is applied to the strap (12), the low speed roller (42) slips relative to the low speed drive shaft (48) at which time the strapping machine may perform additional functions on the strap (12) such as securing it around a package. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention provides a method for prolonging the preservation of human blood platelets at reduced temperatures. The method uses an inhibitor system that enables blood platelets to maintain their discoid shape and retain their functional integrity during storage. This is accomplished by interrupting normal platelet function during storage, so as to help keep platelets from activating and losing their shape. Before using the platelets in a transfusion, they are returned to their normal functional level by washing the inhibitor system away from the platelets.

Abstract: A method for the accurate counting of DNA probe spots in cell nuclei wherein anomalies caused by a two dimensional measurement of a three dimensional cell sample are eliminated from evaluation. DNA probe spots in cell nuclei which are counted by means of Fluorescent In Situ Hybridization (FISH) include cells wherein probe spots of different contoured cells are overlaid or are detected as being adjacent one another with resultant erroneous diagnostic results such as with cancer detection or prognosis. A gating fluorescent value is determined by clusters of fluorescence in regions of non-anomalous values of fluorescence determined by plotting peak fluorescent value against area. The loci of the non-anomalous peak values cluster in specifically definable regions whereby fluorescent values for cells which deviate from the gating fluorescent value, are discounted in the preparation of histograms or other diagnostic measurements.

Abstract: The present invention is based on the discovery that nitric oxide (NO) is an important growth regulator in an intact developing organism. In particular, the present invention relates to a method of increasing in a mammal a population of hematopoietic stem cells in bone marrow which are capable of undergoing normal hematopoiesis and differentiation, wherein the bone marrow is contacted with an inhibitor of NO, such as an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase (NOS), thereby producing bone marrow having an increased population of hematopoietic stem cells which are capable of undergoing normal hematopoiesis and differentiation. The present invention also relates to a method of increasing a population of cells in S phase in a tissue of a mammal, comprising contacting the tissue with an inhibitor of NO, such as an inhibitor of NOS. The invention also pertains to a method of regenerating tissue in an adult mammal comprising contacting a selected tissue (e.g., blood, skin, bone and digestive epithelium), or precursor cells of the selected tissue, with an inhibitor of NO, thereby inhibiting differentiation and inducing proliferation of cells of the tissue.

Abstract: A data pointer for generating an indirect addressing mode address within a single cycle for a selected one of a plurality of multiple indirect addressing modes. The data pointer is used with a processor architecture scheme which allows for encoding of multiple addressing modes. A data pointer register is coupled to the processor architecture scheme for storing a current address of an operand to be used in a simple indirect addressing mode. An incrementer is coupled to the data pointer register for incrementing the current address of an operand to be used in a simple indirect data addressing mode by a set number thereby generating an address of an operand to be used in an indirect addressing mode with auto preincrement. An adder is coupled to the data pointer register for combining the current address of an operand to be used in a simple indirect data addressing mode with an offset number thereby generating an address of an operand to be used in an indirect addressing mode with offset. A multiplexer circuit is coupled to an output of the data pointer register, to an output of the incrementer, and to an output of the adder for selecting a desired indirect addressing mode address. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A person locating system (10) for detecting the unauthorized exit of a person from a monitored area (18) and locating the person thereafter, including a boundary transmitter (52) which generates an activation signal that is conducted across a conductor (16) connected to the boundary transmitter (36). The conductor (16) extends along a boundary of the monitored area (18) and transmits the activation signal within an activation zone (15) adjacent the conductor (16). The person to be monitored wears a portable module (22), which remains in a low power consumption, standby mode until the person enters the activation zone (15) adjacent the conductor (16). The portable module (22) receives the activation signal and enters an active mode wherein the portable module (22) transmits a high frequency locator signal (for example, 220 MHz). The locator signal is received by a locator receiver (28), which may be installed in a facility within the monitored area (18). The locator receiver (28) may also be portable so that the person to be monitored can be tracked down and recovered. In an alternate embodiment, the portable modules (22) are encoded with unique identification information which is transmitted as a part of the locator signal. The locator receiver (56) decodes this information and displays the identification of the wearer of the portable module (22) on a display (64).

Abstract: A multiple sensing technology-based occupancy sensor. Ultrasonic and infrared sensors are used to produce first and second occupancy estimator signals that are combined using a fusion based detection algorithm to produce a combined estimator signal. The combined estimator is then used to switch electrical loads when the combined estimator signal is above a predetermined threshold. The result is an occupancy sensor that has a very high probability of occupancy detection and a low probability of false tripping. In addition, infrared sensitivity is adjusted based upon an estimation of the background noise in order to minimize the occurrence of false tripping.
