Abstract: The purpose of the nitriding process is to impart to articles made of ferrous metal, besides the surface properties resulting directly from the nitriding, a corrosion resistance comparable to that which is obtained by following the nitriding treatment with an oxidation treatment, especially in salt baths. According to the process of the invention the articles are treated by immersion for an appropriate period in a molten salt bath consisting in a manner known per se essentially of alkali metal cyanates and carbonates and containing a small quantity of a sulphur-containing species, the articles are raised, in relation to a counterelectrode immersed in the bath, to a positive potential such that a substantial current passes through the bath from the articles to the counterelectrode, and the content of cyanides formed in a secondary reaction is maintained at a value lower than 6 %. It is preferable to work at a constant average current; typical current densities are from 300 to 800 amperes per m<2>, the typical range of temperatures 450-650 DEG C, and the typical times range between 10 and 150 min.

Abstract: The present invention makes available assays and reagents for identifying anti-proliferative agents, such as mitotic and meiotic inhibitors, especially inhibitors of cdc25 phosphatase. The present assay provides a simple and rapid screening test which relies on scoring for positive cellular proliferation as indicative of anti-mitotic or anti-meiotic activity, and comprises contacting a candidate agent with a cell which has an impaired cell-cycle checkpoint and measuring the level of proliferation in the presence and absence of the agent. The checkpoint impairment is such that it either causes premature progression of the cell through at least a portion of a cell-cycle or inhibition of normal progression of the cell through at least a portion of a cell-cycle, but can be off-set by the action of an agent which inhibits at least one regulatory protein of the cell-cycle in a manner which counter-balances the effect of the impairment.

Abstract: The lock is particularly of the mortise type, having a stop lever actuated by a button protruding from the surface, stopping the catch from turning backwards when pressed inwards. The lever moves into the free position when the catch is pulled back under the action of an arm on the knob, and also on changing over into the release position. A free passage (F1, F2) is formed on pulling the catch back. The passage is formed between the knob arm (24) and the catch (18), and also between the latter and the changeover lever. There can be a chain link (58) between the knob arm to the middle part (50) of the section (44) of changeover lever. This has a coupling formed by a pin working in a slot (60), so that movement is possible with the knob arm stationary. The stop lever (35) can be movable by this part of the two-part change-over lever, the latter having an extension (51) engaging with the catch behind its head (19).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un central de télécommunications (1) permettant de réaliser des commutations entre liaisons de télécommunications, lequel central est piloté par un système de processeurs (5). Le système de processeurs (5) se compose d'une pluralité de modules montés en parallèle (10, 20, 30, 40) et comportant chacun un processeur (11, 21, 31, 41). Selon l'un des modes d'exploitation du système de processeurs (5), les processeurs (11, 21, 31, 41) fonctionnent en synchronisme mutuel. Le système de processeurs utilise un code à tolérance de pannes, ce qui fait que l'ensemble du système de processeurs (5) peut continuer de fonctionner, même en cas d'incidents au niveau de certains modules. En outre, le système de processeurs (5) est agencé pour fonctionner selon un mode 'chargement de logiciel' pour lequel le système de processeurs (5) se subdivise en 2 groupes de modules, les processeurs des modules de chaque groupe fonctionnant en synchronisme mutuel. Les modules de chaque groupe utilisent pour leur fonctionnement la partie de code générée par les modules de ce groupe particulier. Le mode 'chargement de logiciel' permet de charger un nouveau logiciel dans le système de processeurs sans qu'il soit nécessaire de mettre l'ensemble du système hors service, car l'un des groupes se charge du logiciel pendant que l'autre groupe continue à prendre en charge le travail du système de processeurs. La redondance d'erreur, toutefois, est fortement réduite, voire totalement disparue.

Abstract: A heat exchange apparatus (10) which can be used as an evaporative condenser, fluid cooler or wet-air cooler, is provided with a direct evaporative heat exchange section (90) overlying an indirect evaporative heat exchange section (50). An air entry zone (120) common to both heat exchange sections (50;90) receives an air stream blown into this zone by at least one fan (24), thereby pressurizing the plenum such that the air stream is forced to split and enter each section (50;90) while inside the apparatus. This eliminates the need for separate air entries, thus condensing the size and cost of the apparatus, while increasing heat exchange capacity. A countercurrent air flow pattern through the direct section (90) provides a uniformly cooled evaporative liquid for use in the indirect section (50). The evaporative liquid flow is parallel to the air stream provided in the indirect section. A process fluid inside the circuits of the indirect section (50) can accept or reject heat from the evaporative liquid received from the direct section (90), with a part of the heat being transferred into the indirect section air stream in sensible and latent form, thus increasing or decreasing the enthalpy of the air stream. The remaining heat can be either stored or released from the evaporative liquid to increase or decrease its temperature. The evaporative liquid is collected in a sump (30) and then pumped upwardly for re-distribution across the direct evaporative heat exchange section (90). <IMAGE>
