Patent EP-1058066-A2 (EP)
Inventor: OHTAKE SHIGEMITSU
IPC: B03C3/47
Filed: 2000-05-31
Abstract: In a disclosed electric dust-collecting unit, needle
electrodes (11) face laterally against openings, so that a person
in charge of replacement or maintenance/inspection of the
electric dust-collecting unit can be prevented in safety from
being injured on his fingers or body by needles. Therefore, this
type of the electric dust-collecting unit can be applied in an
air cleaner not only in offices but also in homes. In addition,
this type of the electric dust-collecting unit does not employ
a conventional box-pillar type needle support, so that its air
flow path is not suppressed with a resultant remarkable decrease
in a pressure loss, thus contributing to compacting of the
electric dust-collecting unit and hence the air cleaner.

Abstract: A coater for applying foamed coating material to a traveling textile substrate
including a frame, a flush pan, an applicator having an open slot, a pivot shaft journaled in a
pair of support arms that are pivotally mounted to the frame and piston-cylinder mechanisms
to move the applicator between an operating position wherein the open slot is adjacent the
traveling substrate and a flush position wherein the open slot is adjacent the flush pan by
pivoting the support arms and rotating the pivot shaft. Foamed coating material is applied by
supporting the traveling substrate between two spaced support elements, contacting the
traveling substrate with a foam applicator, and forcing a metered amount of foamed material
at least partially into the interstices of the textile substrate before the foamed coating material
collapses. A metered amount of foamed coating material is applied onto or into a textile
substrate regardless of textile substrate structure and regardless of the viscosity of the coating
material. The foamed coating material may be flushed from the coater by stopping flow of
foamed material through the applicator, moving the applicator to the flush position, and
commencing flow of a flushing fluid through the applicator and into the flush pan. Foamed
coating material may also be flushed from the applicator by stopping flow of foamed material
through the applicator, commencing flow of a flushing foam through the applicator, stopping
flow of flushing foam through the applicator, and commencing flow of a flushing fluid
through the applicator.

Abstract: A purge valve for expelling liquid contaminants from a fluid
conduit which is normally unpressurized but is at times pressurized
with a gas which contains liquid contaminants. It has a housing,
a diaphragm mounted within the housing, a control chamber on a
first side of the diaphragm, an exhaust passage on a second side
of the diaphragm and a valve seat surrounding the exhaust passage.
The valve seat is positioned so that the diaphragm can seal against
it. A spring on the second side of the diaphragm presses it away
from the seat. An annular chamber is on the second side of the
diaphragm, surrounding the exhaust passage. The annular chamber is
open to the exhaust passage when the diaphragm is unseated from the
valve seat. The valve has a low impedance flow path between the
control chamber and the fluid conduit. The valve also has a high
impedance discharge flow path connected to the annular chamber.
The high impedance discharge flow path may be connected to the
control chamber, connected to the low impedance flow path, or it
may be for connection to the fluid conduit. When the valve is
connected to the fluid conduit, it is open due to the spring force
whenever the fluid conduit is unpressurized so that the liquid
contaminant may drain from the valve. When the fluid conduit is
pressurized, the diaphragm is pressed against the valve seat so
that the valve is closed.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne l'utilisation de mesures de résonance magnétique nucléaire d'un milieu poreux, réalisées grâce à des temps d'attente multiples, pour déterminer le temps de relaxation longitudinale (temps T1) du pétrole dans un réservoir d'hydrocarbures. Les valeurs T1 de l'eau dans la formation sont représentées par une distribution. Dans une implantation à temps d'attente double du procédé, les données sont acquises avec un temps d'attente court (short wait time / TWS) choisi pour que la phase liquide de mouillage (par exemple la saumure) soit complètement relaxée mais que la phase hydrocarbure ne soit que partiellement relaxée, ce qui permet d'obtenir une séquence d'échos ECHOA, et une séquence d'échos ECHOB avec un temps d'attente long (long wait time / TWL). L'utilisation de procédés connus permet de déterminer le temps T2 pour le pétrole et l'eau. Les trains d'échos individuels sont additionnés et les valeurs T1 sont déterminées à partir de la somme des trains d'échos et des valeurs T2 déterminées. La somme permet d'améliorer significativement le rapport signal-bruit (SNR). Un procédé équivalent permet de déterminer les valeurs T1 par addition d'un premier train d'échos qui est la somme des trains d'échos individuels, et addition d'un second train d'échos qui est la différence entre les trains d'échos individuels. Les différentes valeurs d'addition peuvent également être utilisées pour réaliser des contrôles de qualité des données.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des protéines chimériques ayant au moins deux unités de protéines fonctionnelles, chacune renfermant un domaine de dimérisation d'un élément de la superfamille du récepteur nucléaire de l'hormone stéroïde/thyroïde. Les protéines chimériques peuvent se plier dans des conditions de cristallisation afin de former des entités fonctionnelles. Les entités fonctionnelles contiennent éventuellement un nouveau lieur peptidique de longueur variable entre au moins deux des unités de protéines. Dans un mode de réalisation, le lieur est conçu pour être augmenté de 12 acides aminés à la fois afin d'aider à la préparation de protéines chimériques variantes. Les caractéristiques de liaison à l'ADN des entités fonctionnelles diffèrent de celles de complexes de type sauvage formés entre des récepteurs « monomères » et leurs partenaires de liaison. Certaines entités fonctionnelles, par exemples des dimères exprimés comme protéines hybrides, transactivent des promoteurs réactifs d'une manière semblable aux complexes de type sauvage, tandis que d'autres ne favorisent pas la transactivation et fonctionnent essentiellement comme des répresseurs constitutifs. L'invention concerne en outre des séquences nucléotidiques codant pour les protéines chimériques de la présente invention, des cellules contenant des séquences nucléotidiques, et des procédés d'utilisation des protéines chimériques pour moduler l'expression d'un ou de plusieurs gènes exogènes dans un organisme. L'invention concerne par ailleurs, des cristaux de protéines isolés adaptés pour une analyse de diffraction par rayon X et des procédés permettant d'obtenir des ligands putatifs destinés aux protéines chimériques de la présente invention.

Abstract: A method and Agent for deploying new filter constraints in a plurality of
network-filters in an Event Channel Network (ECN). When a consumer is added
or deleted, or if event types subscribed to by a consumer change, the Agent
calculates the filter constraints and their placement in the ECN. The Agent
includes a network model having a plurality of model-filters corresponding to
network-filters in the ECN. The Agent identifies the model-filters affected by the
new filter constraints, and passes the new filter constraints to the network-filters
corresponding to the identified model-filters. Each network-filter sends a bleeder
message downstream with its identifier. When a network-filter has received all
required bleeder messages from upstream network-filters, it activates the new filter
constraints and sends an all-bleeders-detected message to the Agent. When all of
the network-filters requiring new constraints have sent an all-bleeders-detected
message to the Agent, the Agent provides a go-ahead to the requesting consumer,
and establishes a contract with the requesting consumer to deliver the requested
event type(s).

Abstract: A disc brake assembly (10) includes a stationary member (12), a rotating member (14)
defining an axis of rotation (20), a plurality of stationary discs (28) spaced axially along the
axis of rotation within the stationary member, and a plurality of movable discs (30)
interspaced with the stationary discs. A brake coupler (24) supports the movable discs.
During non-braking vehicle operation, the movable discs and the brake coupler remain
stationary relative to the stationary discs. During a braking maneuver, the coupler couples
the movable discs to the rotating member such that the movable discs are caused to rotate
with respect to the stationary discs. Once the coupler and rotating member are
interconnected a piston (60) moves the stationary and movable discs together to reduce
rotation of the rotating member and brake the vehicle. Once the braking maneuver is
completed, a first return spring moves the stationary and movable discs apart and a second
spring (38) disengages the coupler from the rotating member to return the movable discs to
their original position. This eliminates undesirable drag that occurs between stationary and
rotating discs in a disc brake during non-braking vehicle operation.
