Abstract: Amide-thiolate ligands having improved metal chelate formation kinetics are disclosed. The ligands include an amine to facilitate rapid formation of an amine-amide-thiolate intermediate complex, followed by transfer of the metal to or conversion of the ligand to a thermodynamically stable amide-thiolate complex. In one embodiment of the invention, the amine is a tertiary amine, or its equivalent, strategically located to facilitate complex formation. In another embodiment of the invention, the amine is part of pyridine containing a lower alkoxy substituent in the 2 or 4 ring position. O-dealkylation occurs upon complexation causing the amine to become a vinylogous amide as part of a thermodynamically stable amide-thiolate complex. The amide-thiolate ligands of the present invention may be used for post formed labeling of biological substances for use in the fields of diagnosis and therapy.

Abstract: Powder coating and molding resins, compounds prepared from polyvinyl halide or polyvinylidene halide resin powders are disclosed. The resins are made by a particular suspension process, formulated and coated on articles or molded thereby exhibiting good fusion characteristics and low or no orange peel after application by conventional molding and coating methods. The powder resins have an average particle size in the range of from about 35 microns to about 150 microns, preferably 50 microns to 130 microns. The resins are polymerized in the presence of a protective colloidal system comprising an ion sensitive polymer which is disrupted during the early phase of the polymerization, before about 50%, preferably about 20% monomer conversion. The disruption is effected by introducing an ionic material which causes the colloidal layer to substantially separate from the growing resin particle, thereby removing all or substantially all of the protective colloidal residue from the suspended polymerizing particles.

Abstract: In a mixing and flame stabilising device in a combustion chamber with premixing combustion, a gaseous and/or liquid fuel is injected into the combustion air. The combustion air is guided via vortex generators (9), of which there is a plurality which are arranged next to one another over the width or the circumference of the combustion chamber duct (20) through which flow occurs. The fuel is introduced into the duct (20) in the immediate vicinity of the vortex generators (9). A vortex generator (9) has three surfaces over which flow occurs freely and which extend in the direction of flow and of which one forms the top surface (10) and the two others form the side surfaces. The side surfaces enclose with one another the sweep angle ( alpha ), which varies in the flow direction, and the top surface (10) extends relative to the duct wall (21) at a setting angle (angle of attack) which varies in the flow direction. Such vortex generators can be used to obtain an intimate mixing of combustion air and fuel within a very short distance, and the flame can be stabilised aerodynamically at the same time. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system and method using canonical telephone numbers which allows automatic calling with any location in the world independent of the caller's location. The caller canonical telephone number and a plurality of caller prefixes are stored within the system. A telephone directory stores a plurality of callee canonical telephone numbers for locations throughout the world. The caller manually enters a callee telephone number or selects a callee telephone number from the telephone directory. The system determines if the callee telephone number is a canonical telephone number. The system expands non-canonical telephone numbers to canonical form using known telephone numbering rules for various countries. The system uses the callee canonical telephone number and the caller canonical telephone number to determine which digits of the callee canonical telephone number must be placed on the telephone line to complete the call. The system then adds the appropriate prefix for international, long distance, or local telephone calls to generate a final callee telephone number.

Abstract: The invention relates to a charging method for batteries (accumulators), in particular for NiCd and NiMH cells. According to the invention, the increase in the charging voltage is measured in a unit of time corresponding to a specific voltage value in each case during successive charging cycles of specific duration. The number of these units of time is fed as a counting pulse to two up/down counters (bidirectional counters) over the duration of the charging cycle, one counter operating in the counting down mode and having at the beginning of a charging cycle a count corresponding to the number of units of time which were determined in the preceding charging cycle. The roles of the two counters are exchanged in the subsequent charging cycle, with the result that the counting-up counter is switched into the counting down mode and the other counter is switched into the counting up mode, the last-mentioned counter being set at a specific initial counter reading. After each charging cycle, the final counter reading of the counting-down counter is compared with the specific initial state and a turn-off criterion for the charging operation is derived from this. This method according to the invention allows both positive and negative changes in the dU/dt value of the charging curve to be detected, in conjunction with a high voltage resolution and at the same time a low outlay. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A crawler block rubber pad for a crawler (10) which has an endless path of movement and which is used for a vehicle. Links (1) are axially supported and connected by pins (6) in an endless shape, and crawler blocks (2) are attached to outer surfaces of the links. In the crawler block rubber pad, a rubber pad (3) is formed integrally, by vulcanization and adhesion, to an outer side surface of a crawler block and to end portions of the crawler block as seen from a longitudinal direction of the links. Preferably, the rubber pad is vulcanized and adhered to both end portions of the crawler block in the longitudinal direction of the links. 
     Even if a small stone or the like becomes caught in a space between crawler blocks which space widens when the crawler is trained around an idler of the like, because a thickness of rubber material is provided so as to be larger than a radius of a small stone, no unwanted force is applied to the pins and the links.

Abstract: System and method for laser welding an inner surface of a tubular member (210), which tubular member may be a repair sleeve (210) disposed in a nuclear heat exchanger heat transfer tube (50). The system includes a laser (220) for generating high intensity laser light sufficient to fuse the sleeve to the inside diameter (80) of the heat exchanger tube, the tube being of the type typically found in nuclear heat exchangers (10). A fiber-optic cable (230) is optically coupled to the laser for conducting the laser light therethrough. The fiber-optic cable has a predetermined configuration to homogenize the laser light so that the laser light obtains the desired spatial coherency as the light is emitted from the fiber-optic cable. A mirror (240) is optically coupled to the fiber-optic cable so as to receive the homogenized light beam emitted from the fiber-optic cable. The mirror is also optically coupled to the inner diameter of the sleeve for reflecting the homogenized light beam onto the inner diameter of the sleeve to weld or fuse the sleeve to of the tube. In this manner, the sleeve is welded to the inside diameter of the tube to sleeve the tube.

Abstract: A communication system 10 comprises a remote switching module 13 having two signal terminals connected by just two conductors to the signal terminals of a local decoding module 50. Power is directly provided only to the local decoding module, which applies DC voltage of a first level across the conductors. The remote switching module has a voltage regulator 66 which provides power of a second voltage level lower than the first level for operating a control unit in the switching module. The control unit controls a variable impedance having higher and lower impedance levels and which is connected across the switching module's signal terminals. The decoding module can detect the different impedance levels by sensing the current flow on the conductors. The switching module communicates with the decoding module by modulating the time intervals between changes in impedance levels. The system has particular utility for retrofitting cooling to a heating systems where preexisting thermostat wiring has only two conductors, say when an air conditioning function is added to a previously heat only system. The system is also useful when installing electronic thermostats on heating and cooling systems originally controlled by a mechanical thermostat.
