Patent EP-0831139-A3 (EP)
Inventor: PASPEK STEPHEN C
IPC: C10G9/00
Filed: 1997-09-24
Abstract: A process for the production of aromatic hydrocarbons.
The process involves heating gas oil while under pressure, and
maintaining the gas oil at temperature and pressure to break
the substantially aliphatic chains from the gas oil core
structure of two or more aromatic rings, as well as to break
the aliphatic chains to smaller molecules. The process yields
products which include lighter aliphatic material, as well as
aromatic hydrocarbons.

Inventor: KNAPP HENRY H III
IPC: G06F9/318
Filed: 1997-12-30
Abstract: A computer program or a computer process is instrumented by replacing a native
computer instruction with a trapping computer instruction which is the size of the native
computer instruction and which, when executed, causes a trap to the kernel. A trap handler in
the kernel determines that the inserted trapping computer instruction caused the trap and
transfers control to a user trap handler. The user trap handler maps the trap site to a patch of
instrumentation computer instructions. When the trapping computer instruction is executed, the
trap handler transfers control from the kernel to the user trap handler which in turn transfers
control to the patch. As a result, processing can be transferred from a source address of the
computer process to a destination address of the computer process which is further from the
source address than can be reached by a branching computer instruction of the size of the
replaced native computer instruction. Native computer instructions in sufficient proximity to
corresponding patches of instrumentation computer instructions can be replaced with branching
computer instructions of the size of the native computer instruction and which transfer control to
those corresponding patches. Other native computer instructions are replaced with trapping
computer instructions which transfer control to corresponding patches through traps to the
kernel. The user trap handler handles unanticipated traps particularly efficiently by mapping all
trap sites other than those corresponding to inserted trapping computer instructions to a default
patch which processes unanticipated traps. Therefore, anticipated traps are not slowed by logic
verifying that the trap is anticipated. Native computer instructions which are a single byte in
length are replaced with a selected, single-byte, privileged computer instruction, e.g., HALT, and
the kernel trap handler transfers control to the user trap handler if a trap is caused by the selected
privileged computer instruction and a user trap handler is installed. Efficiency is transferring
control of a computer process through a trap to the kernel is further improved by doing
substantially no more in response to a trap to the kernel than retrieving information regarding the
state of the computer process prior to the trap, making that information accessible to the
computer process, and transferring control back to the computer process.

Abstract: Device for preventing cornea from collapsing; comprising a domed frame (13)
with an irrigation duct (6) perforated therein up to the dome (4) of the frame (3); an elastic
latex membrane (1) attached to, and tightly bound at the brim (2) of, the dome (4); and a
chamber (7) formed between the frame (3) and the elastic latex membrane (1). The frame (3)
is incorporated in the irrigation line running from an irrigation bottle to the
irrigation inlet of the ultrasound handpiece (8). Through the irrigation duct (6) perforated
in the frame (3), the chamber (7) is linked to the irrigation line. The chamber (7) inflates or
constricts, as irrigation flows in or out, by the inflating and repulsing force of
elastic latex membrane (1) generated by the up-to bottom irrigation. By emitting
the irrigation solution into the eye through the irrigation line, cornea is prevented
from collapsing. The device with construction of an elastic latex membrane (1)
attached to the domed frame (3), and incorporated in the irrigation line, is especially
useful for ultra-high vacuum phacoemulsification.

Ionenstrommessung an den Zündkerzen vorgeschlagen, bei dem die
Ionenstromsignale der beiden Zündkerzen jeweils über einen zugeordneten

Da bei einer defekten Zündkerze ein Ionenstromsignal erst

von der gezündeten Zündkerze, erfolgt, ist deren Integrationswert
wesentlich geringer als derjenige der intakten Kerze.

Abstract: A variable fluid displacement apparatus includes a plate which is located in a
crank chamber and is tiltably connected to a drive shaft so as to vary the variable slant angle
responsive to a pressure differential between the crank chamber and a suction chamber. A
first communication path communicates the crank chamber with a discharge chamber to
control pressure within the crank chamber. A first valve device opens and closes a first
opening area in the first communication path to adjust the pressure level. A second valve
device closes a second communication path, which communicates the crank chamber with the
suction chamber. A second opening area in the second communication path is closed when
a pressure difference between the crank chamber and the suction chamber falls below a
predetermined value. Thus, a variable displacement compressor obtains a desired
compression capacity after the variable displacement compressor commences operation.

pigs, hard pigs, and smart pigs. Orientation of the
