Abstract: Apparatus for use in handling a load where a load-bearing rope and a service cable are inter-wound as they are being paid out, having a wrapping device for wrapping a securing member around the service cable and the load-bearing rope, and to unwrap the securing member from the service cable and load-bearing rope as either of them is recovered. The securing member is wound around the service cable and the hoist rope, to hold the service cable relative to the load-bearing rope and to reduce the extent of creeping of the service cable down the load-bearing rope. The securing member can be planar, in the form of a strip, tape or ribbon, or can have a circular cross-section, in the form of a rope. In preferred embodiments, the securing member is resilient and is applied to the rope in tension.

Abstract: Polymer solids are maintained in an intermediate pressure zone for a desired polymer solids residence time and then transferred to a purge zone or other lower pressure zone. An increase in the polymer solids residence time in the intermediate pressure zone allows more diluent to flash or separate, thereby avoiding or reducing the need for a low pressure flash zone. A fluff chamber may be disposed between the intermediate pressure zone and a lower pressure zone. A transporter tank may be used to transport polymer solids after the intermediate pressure zones.

Abstract: A plasma film deposition apparatus (plasma processing
apparatus) is disclosed, which includes a second
antenna 11b disposed around an antenna 11a and located
outwardly of a ceiling surface, and which supplies the
second antenna 11b with an electric current flowing
in a direction opposite to the direction of an electric
current supplied to the antenna 11a by power supply
means, whereby lines of magnetic force, F2, heading
in a direction opposite to the direction of lines of
magnetic force, F1, appearing at the site of the antenna
11a are generated at the site of the second antenna
11b. Thus, the magnetic flux density in the direction
of the wall surface is lowered, even when a uniform

Abstract: A metabolically engineered micro-organism has an operative first metabolic pathway in which a first metabolite is transformed into a second metabolite in a reaction in which NAD is a cofactor for a first enzyme, suitably a phosphorylating dehydrogenase, said reaction step producing NADH. Said second metabolite is transformed into at least one further metabolite in a reaction catalysed by a second enzyme, suitably a kinase. The organism has an operative second metabolic pathway characterised by an enzyme activity in excess of a native level in respect of a third enzyme, suitably a non-phosphorylating dehydrogenase, e.g. GAPN, catalysing a non-reversible reaction in which NADP is a cofactor and NADPH is a product.

Abstract: A vehicle restraint actuator control system comprises an accelerometer that generates
a signal responsive to vertical acceleration of the vehicle, a force responsive sensor that
generates a signal responsive to the force exerted by a mass resting on the seat, and a
processor operatively coupled to the accelerometer and the force responsive sensor for
controlling the actuation of a restraint actuator responsive thereto. In one embodiment, the
processor calculates the average mass on the vehicle seat and predicts a force that should be
exerted on the seat corresponding to a measured level of vertical acceleration assuming zero
belt tension. The processor then controls the actuation of the restraint actuator responsive to
a comparison of an actual force measured by the seat weight sensor with the predicted force.
In another embodiment, the processor controls the actuation of the restraint actuator
responsive to a ratio of a measure of seat weight divided by a measure of vertical acceleration
and by the average mass.
