Abstract: Transmission and flow-connection processes in digital communication systems are based on using a uniform system clock. This clock is obtained from an external reference clock brought in via exchange lines. The peripheral modules evaluating the external reference clock are arranged in the peripherals of a communication system and connected to a central processor via control lines. In the process according to the invention, the central processor once only transmits an instruction to connect themselves to the clock brought in via exchange lines to the peripheral modules. The suitability of this clock as reference clock is checked by the peripheral modules independently of the central processor which prevents the dynamics in the communication system from being restricted. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An interchangeable pinch valve system (10) is provided with a valve body (20) having a longitudinal dimension which is substantially identical to standard longitudinal dimensions for ball, gate and the like type valves of similar flow path diameter. The reduced longitudinal dimension of pinch valve system (10), as compared to prior art systems, is achieved by a flexible-walled tubular sleeve (50) having a pair of transversely directed folds (60, 62) which provide sufficient sleeve material to enable the pinch closing of the flow passage (52) without substantially stretching the tubular sleeve wall (51). The valve body 20 is provided with a pair of recessed openings (22, 24) formed in the interior of valve body wall (21) in parallel spaced relation transverse to the fluid flow axis of the valve for receipt of the respective folds (62, 60), whereby the tubular sleeve (50) is in contiguous contact with the interior surface of valve body wall (21). This arrangement permits the fluid flow passage to occupy the maximum cross-sectional area of the through passage (25) of valve body (20). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A protocol and associated addressable shadow port circuitry for efficiently extending serial bus capability to the backplane environment is disclosed. The protocol is designed to co-exist and be fully compatible with existing serial bus approaches. Circuitry and a protocol operable to couple any one of the boards (BOARD1-BOARDN) on the system backplane bus to the serial bus master (SBM) is described, wherein the protocol operates to select and deselect the boards without interfering with the normal operations on the system backplane bus. The protocol and circuitry is extended to hierarchically arranged systems, so that a primary serial bus master (SBM) device can selectively access and communicate with any device positioned at any level of the hierarchy. Further disclosed embodiments utilize multiple remote serial bus masters on hierarchically arranged networks, each remote serial bus master being coupled to a primary serial bus master using the protocol and circuitry of the invention, so that autonomous testing may be performed by the remote serial bus master devices under the control of the primary serial bus master.

Abstract: The subject of the present invention is an automatic process for determining, monitoring and controlling a forced draining phase prior to the pressing in discontinuous fruit presses. Automatic process, characterised in that it consists, after filling of the fruit press (1) and before beginning the normal pressing cycle, in continuously measuring the rate of flow of the liquids without applying pressing pressure, in noting the minimum value and maximum value of the said rate, in particular when the vat of the fruit press (1) is rotating, in then comparing these values respectively with predetermined quantities, then, as a function of the results of the said comparisons, in carrying out, if appropriate, a forced draining phase on the materials to be pressed (2), simultaneously verifying the possible presence of a blocking of the orifices (3) for discharge of the liquids, in repeating the above operations until the results of the abovementioned comparisons no longer involve carrying out a forced draining phase and, finally, in beginning the normal pressing cycle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method for the identification of agents which inhibit spindle pole body formation or function, thus exhibiting selective fungicidal activity, involves the incubation of test samples in cultures of a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain that produces excess numbers of spindle pole bodies. Cultures containing samples that inhibit spindle pole bodies exhibit enhanced growth because the growing yeast is rescued from the adverse effects of excess spindle bodies. In the preferred practice of the invention, the test sample is added to a S. cerevisiae culture or culture area containing a strain that has a conditional mutation producing excess spindle pole bodies, such as diploid esp1-1 strains. The culture or culture area is preincubated under permissive conditions wherein the strain can grow to some extent, and then conditions are shifted to restrictive conditions so that the mutant strain either cannot grow or grows poorly. The extent of growth in the culture or culture area containing test sample is then compared with the extent of growth in the absence of test sample, and the presence of spindle pole body inhibition is determined by observation of whether culture growth in the presence of test sample exceeds growth in its absence. Preferred embodiments employ test samples on disks or in wells in solidified cultures, facilitating easy visual inspection of growth. A presumptive spindle pole body inhibitor, identified in random screening, is used as a positive control which can be compared to the test sample.

Abstract: There is a gate valve in which a mounting frame 6 for attachment to a wall 1 having an outlet opening 2 is formed and a wall plate 3 has a passage opening 4 associated with the outlet opening 2, in which a gate-valve plate 10 can be moved backwards and forwards in the mounting frame 6 between a closed position in which it covers the passage opening 4 and an open position, and in which, when the gate-valve plate 10 is in the closed position, a sealing ring 18 which can be compressed elastically transversely to the direction of motion of the gate-valve plate, extends along the passage opening 4. The aim is to ensure that the complete, leak-free coverage of the wall outlet opening by means of the gate-valve plate when the latter is in the closed position can be achieved with a reduced outlay and by simpler means. This is achieved by making the passage opening 4 in the wall plate 3 wider than the outlet opening 2 in the wall 1 and arranging the sealing ring 18 in the plane of the wall plate 3 in the passage opening 4, the sealing ring 18 being intended, on the other hand, to rest against the wall edge strip 17 surrounding the outlet opening 2. By means of the transverse movement of the gate-valve plate as it enters the closed position, the gate-valve plate is sealed off directly against the wall, at the wall edge strip. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Transmitter search controllers are known in which the levels of the received transmitter signals are compared with a predetermined threshold value. If the level of the received transmitter signal exceeds the threshold value, the transmitter is classified as suitable for receiving and the transmitter search is ended. The known transmitter search controllers have the disadvantage that they cannot be adapted to specific receiving conditions. The present invention avoids these disadvantages by the fact that the response threshold is fixed according to the disturbances present. <IMAGE>
