Abstract: Dans un transporteur à vis sans fin ou un transporteur hélicoïdal, l'élément de vis rotative (12) comprend une lame radiale hélicoïdale (28) qui est de préférence portée par un arbre d'entraînement central (26). La lame (28) est formée par laminage d'une bande métallique rectangulaire d'épaisseur uniforme entre une paire de rouleaux coniques (56, 58), de préférence décalés. Contrairement aux rouleaux de la technique antérieure qui ont des surfaces de laminage coniques similaires et sans épaulement et qui produisent une lame hélicoïdale dont l'épaisseur radiale diminue progressivement depuis le bord hélicoïdal interne (30) de la lame jusqu'au bord hélicoïdal externe (32), la présente invention prévoit, sur au moins un de ces rouleaux (58), une surface de laminage conique (94) avec un épaulement, ce qui permet d'exercer une pression de laminage moindre sur la portion externe de la lame hélicoïdale (58) au cours de sa formation. On produit ainsi une lame dont la portion externe a une épaisseur (de préférence uniforme) qui n'est pas inférieure et qui est de préférence supérieure à celle de la partie interne de la lame située radialement immédiatement à l'intérieur par rapport à elle.

Abstract: The object of the present invention is reuse of the filtrate of a paint mist-cleaning water mixture as cleaning water without reduction in concentration efficiency. According to the present invention, a waste paint-cleaning water mixture 2 available on trapping a water-based paint mist in cleaning water 1 is concentrated to recover the paint and the aqueous phase is recycled as cleaning water. In this system, the cleaning water prepared by reusing the aqueous phase is adjusted to an acid value of not greater than 10 and a pH value of 7.0 to 9.0. Controlling the amount of low molecular acid components in the aqueous phase in this manner prevents an abnormal viscosity increase in the filtration-concentration of the waste paint-cleaning water mixture. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Power consumption in an electrical system, particularly a battery powered computer system, may be reduced by a method in which the performance of the system's power consuming assets (e.g., I/0 devices, memory, processors, etc.) is monitored during the operation of application programs. The performance metrics (e.g., time on, processing assets, instruction density, etc.) for each of the application programs is stored in a look-up table below the application program software level that is accessible to the basic input/output system and/or disk operating system. The look-up table may be dynamically updated each time an application program is run. The data in the look-up table are used to remove all or part of the power from those assets that require no or less power during operation of a particular application program. The method is transparent to the application programs and may use a terminate and stay resident programs.

Abstract: A desuperheater is disclosed which employs an acceleration orifice within a steam conduit to increase the velocity of steam flowing therethrough, creating a region of low pressure steam. A nozzle having an enclosed elliptical discharge orifice sprays small droplets of cooling water in a semi-elliptical hollow cone pattern directly into the region of low pressure steam flow. Evaporization of the cooling water into the steam is optimized allowing effective control of the steam temperature. Nozzle fouling and plugging is reduced because the droplet size created by the nozzle is small in comparison to the nozzle orifice.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un système permettant d'améliorer les performances d'une presse de forgeage (10) par le fait que l'on peut augmenter la taille de la pièce (18) pouvant être effectivement forgée par ladite presse. Le système présenté comprend un jeu de matrices dont une ou plusieurs matrices (16) sont segmentées, c'est-à-dire divisées en au moins deux, et de préférence au moins trois parties. La matrice segmentée (16) comprend un dispositif d'avancement permettant à chacun des segments d'être avancé, de façon sélective, par rapport aux autres segments, le long de l'axe de forgeage. Les matrices sont montées chacune dans la presse de forgeage (10) directement ou indirectement sur leur support respectif (11, 12). Un dispositif d'avancement est utilisé pour faire avancer l'un des segments par rapport à un autre segment (21, 22) et le verrouiller dans cette position. La pièce (18) est forgée de sorte que le segment avancé constitue un élément de forgeage primaire, c'est-à-dire qu'il transfère la grande majorité des forces à la pièce. Les segments non avancés constituent des éléments de forgeage secondaires, c'est-à-dire qu'ils agissent seulement pour maîtriser la réaction d'autres parties de la pièce. Ensuite, le rôle des segments est inversé, par étapes, de sorte que le segment (21, 22) qui n'avait pas été avancé est maintenant avancé par rapport au segment (20) qui était avancé auparavant. Le processus de forgeage se déroule ensuite une seconde fois, le ou les segments venant d'être avancés agissant alors en tant qu'éléments de forgeage primaires. Etant donné que cette opération de forgeage est ainsi effectuée par étapes au moyen d'une matrice fermée segmentée (16), la force effective totale est appliquée selon une série de sous-opérations sur plusieurs sections de la pièce, de sorte que chaque section de la pièce (18) est effectivement exposée à une plus grande pression de forgeage et que, par conséquent, un travail plus important de forgeage peut être exécuté sur la pièce. Une force de forgeage donnée, disponible, peut être utilisée pour former une pièce de grande taille.

Abstract: Antibodies are recovered and isolated from the sera of a number "n" of patients each of which have or have had the same given disease so that each of the "n" patients has, within a large number of antibodies, some antibodies uniquely associated with the same disease of interest. The antibodies of a first patient are bound to a support surface. To carry out initial screening libraries of molecules, such as peptides displayed on the surface of bacteriophage, are brought into contact with the bound antibodies of the first patient under conditions where binding will occur. Unbound molecules (peptides) are washed away and bound molecules (peptides) on the bacteriophage are identified. Secondary screening is then carried out by extracting and labeling the antibodies of a second patient and using the labeled antibodies to probe the molecules (peptides) isolated in the initial screening.
