Abstract: An apparatus for capacitance or dampness measurement is provided. The apparatus is particularly suitable for continuous determination of dampness over substantially flat surfaces such as roofs, floor, pavements and walls. The apparatus essentially includes a pair of substantially elongate electrodes (106a, 106b) attached to a casing (100) which has a pair of removable surface engaging wheels (101), a handle (102) for pushing and steering, a pair of grip handles (103) for carrying and manoeuvering, and two recesses, one for a power supply (104) and the other for an electronic monitoring apparatus (105) combined with a readout display means (120). The electrodes (106a, 106b) are separated by a gap of approximately 5cm and are retained on the casing (100) so as not to be taut but to be slightly floppy so as to permit good contact between the electrodes (106a, 106b) and the surface to be tested. The value of capacitance/unit area of the electrodes in air is preferably in the range 50pFm-<sup>Z -</sup> 150pFm<sup>-2</sup>.In use, following the calibration, the apparatus is propelled systematically over the surface to be tested as a manually propelled vehicle. Capacitance readings are taken by observation of the dials of the electronic monitoring apparatus (105) through the opening (8). When used on walls, the wheels (101) are removed to provide improved contact between the electrodes (106a, 106b) and the wall. In another embodiment, the electrodes also function as tracks (which are electrically insulated from each other and the casing) for a tracked vehicle. A roller pair for each track, which is endless, is provided.

Abstract: A raster graphic refresh memory architecture offering increased access speed. The memory takes advantage of the "page mode" of operation of dynamic random-access memory integrated circuit devices which require two separate device addresses for random access to a storage location therein but permit in "page mode" a first address corresponding to a set of storage locations to be maintained while changing the second address for more rapid access. The memory is organized so that a portion of the second device address is allocated to the least significant bits of one dimension of the display address and another portion of the second device is allocated to the least signficant bits of another dimension of the display address, thereby forming a two-dimensional cell of storage locations on a single page corresponding to a region on the display. The page can be extended by using a plurality of random-access memory devices and selecting one of the devices using the least significant bits of one dimension of the display address. An addressing scheme is provided which permits simultaneous "page mode" writing of data into multiple storage locations representing contiguous pixels of the display. A mechanism is also provided for reading back data from a plurality of storage locations representing contiguous pixels on the display and storing the data in a temporary storage-shift register for subsequent manipulation.

Abstract: A device for the uptake, transportation and recovery of cell material present in body fluids, cell-fixing liquids, and mixtures of body fluids and cell-fixing liquids, and also for the transfer of the recovered cell materials to microscope slides. The device comprises a vessel (1) with an inlet (2) and an outlet (3); a removable fiber element (5) is arranged, flush with the wall, in the outlet (3), and comprises fibers which are insoluble in body fluids and cell-fixing liquids and which are arranged lengthwise in the direction of the long axis of the vessel (1) with the formation of through capillaries, such that the capillaries have a smaller diameter than the diameter of the cells. The vessel (1) can be liquid-tightly and gas-tightly closed. Preferably, the fibers of the fiber element (5) are crimped and/or texturized fibers and/or hollow fibers. In contrast to conventional devices and methods for the recovery of cells from cell-fixing liquids, in which the cells must be caused to sediment or settle and a long time is required, the separation of cells and cell-fixing liquids takes place in a very short time with the device according to this invention. Apart from this, the recovered cells can be directly transferred to microscope slides. As fibers for the fiber element (5) there can be used, for example, stuffer box-crimped polypropylene fibers or cellulose-2,5-acetate fibers. Cell-fixing liquids are, e.g., methanol, ethanol or isopropanol. Body fluids are, e.g., urine, cerebrospinal fluid, pleural effusions, or ascites.

Abstract: To detect a physical parameter such as pressure, temperature, acceleration or force, the physical parameter is allowed to influence the movement of a light transmitting piezoelectric member. Light is supplied to the member and the member is vibrated in a direction transverse to the light transmitted in the member. The vibrations of the member are modulated by the physical parameter. The modulations of the vibrations modulate the light transmitted by the member. The modulations of the light transmitted by the member are then detected to detect the physical parameter. In some embodiments the physical parameter causes non- vibrational relative motion between two flexible light transmitting members. The change in the amount of light transmitted between the two members is detected for detecting the physical parameter.
