Abstract: L'invention concerne une seringue hypodermique (11) qui comprend un cylindre (12) présentant une extrémité libre, une extrémité de la base (14) et un alésage intérieur; un ensemble aiguille comportant un élément de base de l'aiguille (16) situé à l'intérieur de l'alésage et pouvant entrer en prise de façon libérable avec l'extrémité de la base, et une aiguille (15) saillant à travers l'extrémité de la base du cylindre. La seringue comprend également un plongeur (26) coulissant à l'intérieur de l'alésage et comportant un piston (29) en prise libérable avec lui, et une chambre (28) dont l'air est évacué et dont une extrémité est fermée par le piston (29). Le piston (29) comprend un moyen (31) qui vient au contact de l'élément de base de l'aiguille (16) si bien, pendant l'utilisation, lorsque le plongeur (26) est déprimé et que le piston arrive à proximité de l'extrémité de la base du cylindre, le piston (29) peut entrer en prise avec l'élément de base de l'aiguille (16), lequel se libère de l'extrémité de la base (14) et le piston (29) se libère du plongeur (26). Ainsi, une pression atmosphérique peut s'exercer sur le piston (29), l'élément de base de l'aiguille (16) et l'aiguille et les rentrer à l'intérieur de la chambre (28), de sorte que l'élément de base de l'aiguille (16) entre en prise de façon libérable avec l'extrémité de la base (14) du cylindre grâce à un anneau brisé (20) qui peut être déplacé d'une position de serrage à une position de desserrage.

Abstract: The acetylation level of a peptide is determined utilizing the
fact that the changes in the acetylation level are reflected in the
sensitivity of the substrate peptide to a peptidase. This method can
be used for measuring activities of deacetylase and acetylase, and
also enables screening for substances that influence the activity
of these enzymes. The deacetylase activity can be measured by a simple
procedure according to the present invention.

Abstract: An improved apparatus and improved method for determining the characteristics of a multi-phase fluid along a well (10) and drilled pipe (26) having a predefined geometric profile are presented. Various state properties of the fluid, including the temperature, pressure, flow rate and specific gravity are taken at the wellhead (20) or separator (22) and used as starting values for calculating estimated state properties at various segments along the well hole. Once the state properties are calculated, an estimated mass flow and velocity rate for the fluid and its constituents can be calculated at specific points along the well hole by implementing computer-based programs and algorithms to extrapolate and/or iterate the known parameters and measurements in a progressively incremented manner from the locations of such given starting points at an initial segment up to other further points corresponding to a set of further sequential segments used in the geometric profile mathematical model.

Abstract: Present invention provides a single screw
compressor from which only a small amount of gas to be
compressed leaks and which can be manufactured at low costs.
There are provided a screw rotor 1 having six grooves 2, 2,
... and a gate rotor 4 having 12 teeth 5, 5, ... which are
installed in a casing. Since six, which is the number of
the grooves of the screw rotor 2, and twelve, which is the
number of the teeth 5 of the gate rotor, have a common
divisor, only predetermined teeth 6 are engaged with a
groove 2. Therefore, engagement combinations of the grooves
2 and the teeth 5 are divided into six groups. In each of
these groups, dimension accuracy is controlled so that the
grooves 2 and the teeth 5 engaged each other have
appropriate clearances. Since manufacture is easier when
dimension accuracy is controlled within each group than
when dimension accuracy of all grooves 2 and teeth 5 is
controlled at one time as in a conventional case, this
single screw compressor becomes inexpensive.

Abstract: This invention relates to a retractable and extendable awning and a control
system for automatically extending and retracting the awning. 
     In a retractable fabric awning a front of the awning fabric is attached to a movable
front bar, movably mounted at the wall of a building by retractable arms. The rear
of the fabric is unrolled from a roll of the fabric on the building wall when the arms
move the front bar away from the building. 
     The awning features a weather sensor unit on its front bar. The weather sensor
unit can detect excessive wind and mechanical shocks and also sunlight and
rain. The sensor is in wireless (via radio frequency) communication with an
indoor control unit which can automatically retract the front bar during windy,
rainy and/or low sunlight conditions and extend the front bar during calm and
sunny conditions. 
     The awning also features specific mechanical improvements in the support
brackets for the retractable arms and in the retractable arms, themselves. In
particular, each support bracket has a screw spindle (for adjusting the angle of
extension of the fabric awning from a building) with a resilient inner bushing that
cushions mechanical shocks to the awning. Glued-in arm ends allow adhesive to
be introduced into the arm ends after assembly of the arms.
