Abstract: A process for manufacturing welded steel-plate panels from individual sheet-metal plates (1, 2) cut off from steel strips suitable for the panel parts, in the course of which sheet-metal plates of several times the length of the steel-plate panels are separated from the steel strips and are welded to one another at their longitudinal edges trimmed beforehand, and then the individual steel-plate panels are cut out of the composite plates resulting from the sheet-metal plates. In order to provide such a process which also enables sheet-metal plates significantly longer than 4000 mm with straight longitudinal edges to be produced in a simple manner, the longitudinal edges (3, 4) of two sheet-metal plates (1, 2), which longitudinal edges (3, 4) are to be welded and are orientated to one another in pairs, are trimmed in a single step over the entire length. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A process for purifying a polymer by separating and removing volatile components from a polymer composition containing the volatile components is disclosed herein which comprises:
     (a) a step of heating the polymer composition containing a solvent such as methanol to a temperature of 120-270°C;   (b) a step of discharging the polymer composition into a tank in which a predetermined pressure is maintained, and then separating and collecting most of the volatile components from the composition; and   (c) a step of feeding the obtained polymer composition to a vent extruder in which a predetermined temperature is set and pressure in a vent portion is set to a predetermined pressure, and then extruding it to lower the content of the remaining volatile components in the composition to 1% by weight or less. Alternatively, if necessary, between the above-mentioned steps (b) and (c), there can be interposed a step (b') of introducing an inert gas into the polymer composition before heating or under heating, or into the vicinity of the polymer composition which is being discharged into the tank. According to this process, the polymer can easily be separated and purified, so that the high-quality polymer, particularly the methyl methacrylate polymer can efficiently be manufactured without involving modification such as coloring.

A plurality of bead rows (20) which run at a right angle to the direction in which the heat exchanging medium passage is formed are provided in the tube element (1) and the beads (20) may be provided in such a manner that they are located at different intervals in adjacent bead rows or so that the areas (21) where beads (20) are not provided are different among bead rows and these areas may form a continuum. With such a structure, the number of beads provided in the dead water regions is reduced and the passage resistance is reduced so that the flow of the heat exchanging medium is improved.

Abstract: A foldable portable telephone is made up of an upper casing having a receiver portion, and a lower casing having a transmitter portion. The lower casing is rotatably connected to the upper casing by a hinge. When the lower casing is rotated away from the upper casing, the receiver portion is moved to protrude from the upper casing. At this instant, the telephone is brought into an off-hook state. When the lower casing is rotated onto the upper casing, the receiver portion is retracted into the upper casing while the telephone is brought into an on-hook state. The receiver portion, when protruded from the upper casing, increases the distance between an antenna and the user's ear. In this condition, the antenna is not influenced by the user's body and, therefore, maintains a sufficient antenna gain.

Abstract: A semiconductor mass storage system and architecture can be substituted for a rotating hard disk. The system and architecture avoid an erase cycle each time information stored in the mass storage is changed. (The erase cycle is understood to include, fully programming the block to be erased, and then erasing the block.) Erase cycles are avoided by programming an altered data file into an empty mass storage block rather than over itself as hard disk would. Periodically, the mass storage will need to be cleaned up. Secondly, means are provided for evenly using all blocks in the mass storage. These advantages are achieved through the use of several flags, a map (108) to correlate a logical address (308) of a block to a physical address (408) of that block and a count register for each block. In particular, flags (118, 112, 116) are provided for defective blocks, used blocks, old version of a block, and a count to determine the number of times a block has been erased and written and erase inhibit flag.

Abstract: It has been found that the ligands of the group of cytokins similar to Interleukin 6 (IL-6), that is Oncostatin M (OSM), Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF) and Interleukin 11 (IL-11), induce formation of a receptor complex of which the membrane molecule gp 130 is a part. It is thus possible to formulate the hypothesis that two different surfaces of the protein (in this class of hormones), known as site 1 and site 2, bind to two different molecules: site 1 to the specific receptor and site 2 to gp 130. The invention allows the identification of these sites and the isolation of variants having, with respect to the wild hormone, a greater affinity for the specific receptor (superagonists and superantagonists) or affinity for gp 130 reduced or abolished (antagonists and superantagonists). The figure shows the construct pHen DELTA  hIL-6 and the production of phasmidic particles that can be used to select agonists of Interleukin 6.
