Abstract: The invention relates to a container, in particular a composter, with at least three identically designed wall parts, connected to one another via connecting elements, and a lid. A first variant of the invention provides that a side edge of each wall part is essentially located in the wall part plane, while the other wall part side edge is located at the end of a wall part portion which is bent off in correspondence with the vertical container corners, and that the connecting elements are formed at the two wall part side edges. A further variant of the invention provides that the wall part side edge portions which are directed inwards with respect to the essentially planar central surface portions of the wall parts are provided at their free ends with the connecting elements. The invention provides a stable container which is essentially resistant to warping and is particularly suitable as a composter.

Abstract: An aspheric lens for providing improved vision and a method for generating such a lens is described. The lens provides a sharp image focus while minimizing image aberrations. The method utilizes ray tracing techniques in conjunction with Modulation Transfer functions to accurately account for the total corrective lens-eye system. The lens may be in the form of a contact lens, an intraocular lens, a natural lens or a spectacle lens, and is suitable for correcting myopia, presbyopia, astigmatism and other focusing problems. The lens is characterized by a hyperbolic or parabolic surface which functions to reduce spherical aberrations and minimize the retinal image spot size.

Abstract: A closure comprises a cap part (1) which can be fixed on the mouth end of a container and in whose dimensionally stable bottom wall (9) a sealing arrangement (11) with a sealing cone (13) is held by a flexible wall region (12) in such a way that the sealing cone (13) can be moved into and out of a sealing engagement with a mouth opening (5) of the container. Means, for example in the form of a fold-over of the flexible wall region (12), are provided in order to hold the sealing arrangement (11) in the end positions which correspond to the release and closure positions of the sealing arrangement. The sealing arrangement (11) can be moved by hand into the end positions by means of a moulded-on actuating part (15). A pouring element (16) can be moulded onto the flexible wall region (12) so that it undergoes pivoting corresponding to the respective position of the flexible wall region (12) during the movement of the sealing arrangement (11) between the closure and release positions. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Appareil d'introduction de manière précise dans une unité centrale (UC) des informations multidimensionnelles relatives aux coordonnées, aux sens de déplacement, ou analogue d'un objet déplacé selon la volonté d'un opérateur sans contact ni limitation de l'espace. Des détecteurs de vitesse angulaire (4, 5, 6) sont disposés sur les axes X, Y, Z perpendiculaires les uns aux autres d'un corps de commande (1) dont la forme est adaptée à la main de l'opérateur et qui peut se monter sur une articulation, une épaule, une tête ou analogue. Avant que l'opérateur ne tourne et ne déplace le corps de commande (1) pour introduire des informations, il met en position de marche ou en position d'arrêt les boutons de commande (2, 3) dudit corps de commande (1) afin d'actionner ou de désactiver le comptage des signaux de sortie des détecteurs de vitesse angulaire (4, 5, 6). En fonction des commandes, les signaux de vitesse angulaire correspondant aux mouvements de l'opérateur sont sortis par les détecteurs (4, 5, 6), convertis en informations, et introduits dans l'UC par le truchement d'un convertisseur à fréquence variable, d'un circuit convertisseur d'impulsions, d'un circuit de porte et d'un compteur. Dans quelque volume que ce soit, l'opérateur peut commander à volonté l'UC au moyen de ses mouvements. Il est donc facile de déplacer un bras robotique et de diriger la rotation et les autres mouvements d'un personnage affiché sur l'écran d'un système CAO ou graphique multidimensionnel. Même les personnes handicapées pourront se servir des commandes.

Abstract: A valved catheter is disclosed having an elongated, flexible tubular element extending along a central axis and a flow portion of a valve assembly which controls fluid flow in the tubular element. The element is adaptable for bidirectional flow of fluid between its proximal and its distal ends, with a bidirectional valve assembly coupled to the interior of the tubular element. The bidirectional assembly generally defines a control plane which intersects the central axis at an oblique angle. The assembly has an inflow portion and an outflow portion nominally disposed to lie in the control plane. The inflow portion includes an inflow vane positioned between the intersection of the control plane with the central axis and the distal end and which is adapted to be deflected out of the control plane toward the distal end in response to the establishment of a relatively high fluid pressure at the proximal end and a relatively lower fluid pressure at the distal end. The outflow portion also includes an outflow vane positioned between the intersection of the central plane with the central axis and the proximal end and which is adapted to be deflected out of the control plane toward the proximal end in response to the establishment of a relatively low fluid pressure at the proximal end and a relatively higher fluid pressure at the distal end.

Abstract: A ferroelectric liquid crystal device is constituted by a pair of substrates disposed parallel to each other and each having on its inner surface an electrode, an insulating film and an alignment control film, and a ferroelectric liquid crystal disposed between the substrates. The alignment control films on the pair of substrates are provided with uniaxial alignment axes in directions which are substantially parallel and opposite to each other. The ferroelectric liquid crystal is placed in an alignment state showing a pretilt angle  alpha  of 5 degrees <  alpha  < 45 degrees formed by transition from a bistable state giving a lower apparent tilt angle theta a to a bistable state giving a higher apparent tilt angle theta a. The transition, that increases the apparent tilt angle theta a, is caused, e.g., by application of mechanical or electrical means, such as application of ultrasonic treatment, static load or AC electric field. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A chuck has a spring connection between the nut which rotates to advance or retract the jaws and the control ring or sleeve which the user rotates to operate the chuck. The spring normally transmits tightening or loosening rotation from the sleeve to the nut. When the jaws contact a tool, however, the spring allows the sleeve to continue to rotate even though the nut is stopped by the jaw-tool contact. Continued rotation of the sleeve relative to the nut causes a cam mechanism interposed between these two elements to force the non-rotating nut axially forward. This applies a final tool-gripping force to the jaws. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A front-loading syringe which comprises a movable plunger for injecting liquid contrast media, is rotatably mountable on a front wall of an injector housing with an interference fit and in sealed relationship with respect thereto, with or without a pressure jacket, by a first-quick release mechanism. At the same time, the plunger is connected to an injector drive mechanism by a second readily releasable mechanism. During the mounting operation, a sensor reads injection information from an indicator device on the syringe and feeds it to an injector control. An audible-and-tactile indicating mechanism also is activated when the syringe is essentially in the desired mounted position. The syringe may include reinforcing ribs which also function as volumetric gradations, and liquid media presence-or-absence indicating dots which appear circular against a liquid media background and oval-shaped against an air background. An injection end of the syringe comprises an injector portion of reduced diameter inside a screw-threaded attachment portion of larger diameter, and may include loop-shaped reinforcing handle portions.
