Abstract: The connection method involves using code converters allowing the speech signals provided by the subscribers (21.23) and coded at a relatively low bit rate, to be transmitted via digital network channels of higher bit rate. The called subscriber is signalled when the connection is established from a calling subscriber, providing speech signals coded at the lower bit rate, with evaluation of the signalisation for the transmission of speech signals coded at the lower bit rate, from the called subscriber to the calling subscriber.   When the called subscriber cannot provide speech signals coded at the lower bit rate, the signals at the higher bit rate are fed back to the calling subscriber.

Abstract: Compositions for oral use containing a zinc compound, a copper compound, an amino acid and a base material are described. The compositions provide for slow release of zinc ions upon dissolution in the mouth to thereby achieve beneficial therapeutic effects from the zinc ions. The copper compound provides copper ions which serve to counterbalance a large intake of zinc as is present upon prolonged oral use of the composition. A molar ratio of amino acid to zinc of 2 to 20 and a molecular ratio of copper to zinc of 0.1 to 0.01 provides compositions with a palatable taste and no aftertaste even upon the inclusion of the copper compound.

Abstract: The invention concerns an arrangement which externally provides standard conditions, for example in accordance with the DECT standard, but internally, that is between its cascaded parts (SREP), provides conditions which deviate from this standard as concerns the chronological position within the time frame of the time slots used for a connection. This arrangement provides easy insertability and favourable conditions with respect to the use of radio channels and signal propagation times.

Abstract: A bleeding or fugitive printing ink is disclosed and claimed which can be printed by the method of dry or wet offset or letterpress. This ink allows, when printed on security documents and dried, to prevent attempts of forgery or counterfeit in that the ink contains at least one dyestuff which is sensitive to organic solvents and other chemical reagents. The ink, when printed, forms a solid, polymerised or cross-linked binder matrix on the surface of the document when the printings are submitted to energy radiation, or by an oxypolymerisation reaction. This matrix is formed nearly immediately, in the case of oxypolymerisation within 24 hours, in contrast to conventional bleeding printing inks whose matrixes do not really dry and remain liquid in the interstices of the substrate.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a crease-lined packaging laminate (20) which makes for more distinct and well-formed fold edges and thereby packaging containers with an attractive appearance and good configurational stability and handling stability, as well as a simple method of providing a packaging laminate with crease lines, which makes for more rational, and more economical changing of crease line patterns without the employment of expensive creasing tools. A packaging laminate (20) comprising at least two layers (11, 12) which both contribute to the total rigidity of the packaging laminate is provided with fold indications in that the adhesion between the two layers is reduced or eliminated along the linear regions along which the packaging laminate is to be folded. Since both of the layers can be deformed more independently of one another along the linear adhesion reduced fold regions (14), the total flexural resistance of the packaging laminate is less in these regions than in the rest of the packaging laminate. The adhesive bonding strength between the two layers (11, 12) may, for example, be reduced by applying an adhesion-counteracting agent on one or both of the layers within the linear crease line regions, or by applying an adhesion-promoting agent in the regions outside these crease line regions. In particular, the adhesion may be reduced by bringing the two layers to surface fusion with one another by the supply of heat to regions outside the crease lines. For example, the surfaces in the regions outside the crease lines may be darkened or blackened in order to absorb more heat than the relatively lighter crease line regions.

Abstract: In a drinks bottling process, liquid is first degassed before gas is reintroduced in the form of oxygen and/or other chosen gases in dissolved or compound form. The liquid is then bottled (30) and sealed. Before each bottle (30) is filled, it is filled with oxygen and/or the other chosen gases and pressurized to a predetermined value (p6). The bottle is then filled almost to the brim (40) with the oxygen-enriched fluid at a pressure which exceeds the first value. The residual volume (41) between the fluid and the bottle closure is filled with oxygen or the chosen gas mixture. The oxygenated liquid is held at a pressure which exceeds atmospheric pressure following oxygenation until filling is concluded. Pressure is equalized prior to bottle or can closure.

Abstract: Three genes encoding membrane-secreted proteins have been successfully isolated from osteoblast-like cell lines by using a method for specifically cloning membrane-secreted proteins. As the result of subsequent analysis on one of these genes, it has been found out that the protein encoded by this gene is a novel receptor protein which has an extracellular region alone, binds to cell membranes via a GPI anchor and carries therein a cysteine-rich repetitive region conserved in the TNF receptor super family. It has been also found out that when this protein is largely expressed in an osteoblast-like cell line, the proliferation of the cells are suppressed, the cells are morphologically changed, and the alkaline phosphatase activity which is one of the indications of the differentiation of osteoblasts is elevated.

Abstract: A plastic body, in particular flat element, limits the reflection of high-frequency radiation in HF-shielded areas, such as computer installation sites, HF-shielded rooms or the like, especially for carrying out measurement on high-frequency-radiating objects. Electroconducting or high-frequency radiation-scattering particles are provided in the plastic material. The object of the invention is to provide a lighter and in particular cheaper room lining without reducing its damping and shielding properties. This is achieved in that the electroconducting particles (3) are enclosed in the plastic material (4) such that electricity is not conducted through the plastic material in the transverse or longitudinal directions.

Abstract: The invention is a method for transforming a source individual's voice so as to adopt the characteristics of a target individual's voice. The excitation signal component of the target individual's voice is extracted and the spectral envelope of the source individual's voice is extracted. The transformed voice is synthesized by applying the spectral envelope of the source individual to the excitation signal component of the voice of the target individual. A higher quality transformation is achieved using an enhanced excitation signal created by replacing unvoiced regions of the signal with interpolated data from adjacent voiced regions. Various methods of transforming the spectral characteristics of the source individual's voice are also disclosed.

Abstract: A foamed panel or band of material (14) is wetted or saturated with a resin material (28) adherent to two covering layers (16, 18), between which it is then sandwiched. Hot pressing in a mold (40), produces the required hardened roof contour. An Independent claim is included for the corresponding reinforced roof internal cladding. Preferred features: The foam is passed through a bath of the resin, then through a calender with adjustable nip (30), pressing out surplus. Covering layers are added. The composite passes through a second calender (34), before reaching the hot pressing mold, where hardening and bonding are completed. Between first and second calenders, the foam is wetted with catalyst, which mixes with the resin in passing through the second nip, becoming distributed over the entire width. This accelerates hardening during hot pressing. The foam is 5-10 mm thick with a density of 15-25 kg/m<3>, preferably 21 kg/m<3>. Resin content following the first calender is 200-300 g/m<2>. Covering layer (16, 18) weights are 160-200, preferably 186 g/m<2>. Outer and inner coatings have weight 10-30 g/m<2> preferably 20 g/m<2>.
