Abstract: Push-pull converters (GW) are often operated from an input DC voltage source (QE) via preliminary regulators (VR), for example in the form of push-pull boost regulators. In order to implement reliable current limiting in the case of such an arrangement, the power consumption current (I1, I2) of the preliminary regulator (VR) is detected, and the push-pull converter (GW) is caused to be switched off when this power consumption current (I1, I2) exceeds a threshold value (SW1, SW2) in a predetermined time window (ZF). The method and/or the arrangement are advantageously suitable for the electrical power supply of travelling wave tube amplifiers in satellites or terrestrial stations. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A thermoplastic article can be injection molded in a mold (10) which comprises a cavity (28) defining the shape of the article, at least one thermoplastic entry aperture (23) which is adapted to receive molten thermoplastic resin from a nozzle (22) of an injection molding machine (24), a thermoplastic flow path (21, 26, 30) communicating with the thermoplastic entry aperture and the cavity, and a fluid flow passageway (32, 34) extending into the mold. The fluid flow passageway extends from an exterior surface of the mold to the thermoplastic flow path. A low viscosity fluid such as a gas can be injected through the fluid flow passageway and into the thermoplastic flow path. An end portion (44) of the fluid flow passageway adjacent the thermoplastic flow path has a porous metal plug (50) disposed therein. The porous metal plug comprises a porous metal core (64) which permits the low viscosity fluid to flow therethrough but prevents the passage of molten plastic therethrough. The porous metal core can comprise a sintered metal. Alternatively, the fluid flow passageway can extend from an exterior surface of the mold directly to the mold cavity, rather than the thermoplastic flow path.

Abstract: A biomagnetometer (10) includes a magnetic field sensor unit including a magnetic field pickup coil (12). A vessel (16) contains the sensor unit. The vessel (16) includes a flexible contact face (e.g., 240) with the magnetic field sensor unit mounted in the interior of the vessel (16) adjacent to the flexible contact face. Insulation at the flexible contact face (240) of the vessel (16) prevents excessive heat flow through the flexible contact face (240). Pickup units using this structure can be connected together into flexible or rigid arrays. In operation, the pickup coil is cooled to a temperature of less than its superconducting transition temperature. A detector (30) measures the magnitude of magnetic fields sensed by the sensor unit.

Abstract: The method includes the steps of providing a thin layer of a thermoplastic polymer on the outer mating surface of the femoral neck 8. To assemble the femoral head 12 and neck 8, the head 12 is placed onto the neck 8 and the assembly is heated to a temperature of approximately 800 degrees Fahrenheit. At this temperature, the thermoplastic polymer becomes molten and exhibits exceptional adhesive characteristics. Once the thermoplastic is in its molten state, the femoral head 12 is impacted onto the neck by known instrumentation. Impacting provides a tight mechanical connection between the mating parts. Once impacted, the assembly is permitted to cool to ambient temperature which transforms the thermoplastic polymer into its solid state. The thermoplastic polymer chemically bonds the mating parts together and exhibits a strength at the junction around 10 ksi. 
     The use of the thin layer of thermoplastic polymer also forms a uniform contact surface between the mating parts to allow for stress transfer across the entire mating surface and thereby reduces the overall transfer of stress per unit area. The bond created between the mating parts further forms a barrier to moisture to prevent corrosion or fretting between the mating surfaces.

Title: Clipboard facility for computer network
Inventor: MALTBY JOHN
IPC: G06F13/00
Filed: 1993-08-31
Abstract: Two computers A and B each have a clipboard function CLIPBOARD A and CLIPBOARD B respectively. In order to allow material from CLIPBOARD A to be copied to an application running on B, a routine CLIP SEND becomes a viewer to CLIPBOARD A, receiving information about updates to CLIPBOARD A. CLIP SEND then transmits to a routine CLIP RECEIVE at B a list of formats in which the information on CLIPBOARD A is available. CLIP RECEIVE submits these to CLIPBOARD B using the delayed rendering facility. When the user requests a particular format from CLIPBOARD B this request is passed via CLIP RECEIVE back to CLIP SEND on A. CLIP SEND then obtains the necessary material from CLIPBOARD A, and returns it to CLIP RECEIVE, which passes it to CLIPBOARD B for forwarding to the user.

Abstract: An adapter (1) can be connected detachably to a stationary connector (13 or 21). The stationary connector is in this case a constituent part of a measurement device for measuring different optical waveguides. The adapter is provided with a circuit (3) into which different mobile connectors can be inserted for a short time. The circuit has a slot (6), parallel to the axis, for receiving an anti-rotation element (locking element, rotation protection device) on a first category of stationary connectors (21). In addition, the circuit has, however, on its outer casing also at least one further recess (4, 4', 5) for receiving the anti-rotation element (19, 19', 20) at a second category of stationary connectors (13). In this way, an interface is produced between the adapter (1) and the stationary connector (13, 21), which interface makes an adapter, equipped in this manner, combinable with different connectors but where, on the other hand, an adapter without additional recess can be placed only on one of the two categories. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention describes methods of screening for or selecting a catalytic antibody effective to cleave a target peptide. In particular, in the selection method of the present invention a phage gene is selected that encodes a gene product necessary for the production of a phage. The phage, carrying the modified gene is introduced into a host. Also, a library of rearranged immunoglobulin genes in a cloning vector is introduced into host cells. The host cells are grown under conditions in which the immunoglobulin genes are expressed in the host cells. The presence of antibodies capable of cleaving the target peptide is identified on the basis of production of phage.

Abstract: Des circuits et des techniques ont été conçus selon différents modes de réalisation pour permettre une alimentation stable et continue en courant alternatif à un dispositif de traitement au plasma à alimentation en courant à mode de commutation (16). Des éléments de circuit parallèles, en série et autres, connectés à l'élément de commutation (7), sont accordés de façon que toute énergie à une fréquence autre que la fréquence fondamentale est absorbée et dissipée. Cette énergie peut être uniquement à la seconde harmonique, ou elle peut comprendre de larges plages de fréquence dans la mesure où l'on choisit une impédance élevée à la fréquence fondamentale et une impédance relativement faible à d'autres fréquences. Tout en supprimant les instabilités, les oscillations, et même en changeant la classe de fonctionnement de l'alimentation à mode de commutation, l'élément stabilisateur absorbe l'énergie afin de l'empêcher d'affecter le commutateur (7) de l'alimentation en courant (16).

Abstract: In accordance with the present invention a luminescent article is disclosed comprising a self-supporting or supported layer of phosphor particles dispersed in a binding medium and a protective coating thereover characterised in that the binding medium substantially consists of one or more hydrogenated styrene-diene block copolymers, having a saturated rubber di-block or tri-block having a styrene endblock on respectively one or both sides of the said di-block or tri-block, as rubbery and/or elastomeric polymers. The ratio by volume of phosphor to binding medium is more than 70/30 and preferably more than 85/15. By said hydrogenated diene copolymers, for use as rubbery and/or elastomeric polymers, the phosphor layer has improved elasticity of the screen, high protection against mechanical damage and thus high ease of manipulation and high pigment to binder ratio without getting deteriorated by ageing after frequent reuse.
