Abstract: In the case of a grit spreading apparatus for winter service in which spreading material is fed from a continuous conveyor into a fall pipe (3) and via an inclined chute (15) to a specific point on a scatter plate (17), which rotates about an essentially vertical axis (18) and which is arranged eccentrically in relation to the fall pipe (3) and is swivel-mounted about the vertical axis (19) of the fall pipe (3) for transverse displacement of the scattering pattern in relation to the longitudinal centre axis of the spreading apparatus (1), the spreading material is centrifugally scattered over varying distances depending on the speed of rotation. In order to improve the distribution of spreading material and in order to achieve an adequate transverse displacement of the scattering pattern within a limited overall swivel angle ( beta ), the scatter plate (17) is rigidly arranged centrally at the bottom end (11) of a guide pipe (9), which runs sloping rearwards from the top at an angle of inclination ( alpha ) of at least 20 DEG  to the vertical (10) and which is pivotally mounted at its upper end by means of a short bearing connection (8) on a fall pipe connection (4) arranged below the continuous conveyor and can be brought by remote control into different swivel angle positions ( beta ) with the chute (15). <IMAGE>

Title: Spinnerdisc for Winterservice-Spreading-Apparatus
Inventor: SEIDL RICHARD

Granted: 1994-06-22
Abstract: A spinner disc (1), driven in a rotary manner about an essentially vertical rotational axis (7), for a winter-service grit spreader for spreading granulated gritting material is provided on its top side with throwing blades (2, 3, 4) which run essentially radially to the rotational axis and have different radial lengths (11, 12, 13). Gritting material is continuously fed to the spinner disc (1) from a supply container via a drop tube by means of a conveying device. In order to improve such a spinner disc (1) in such a way that, irrespective of the spreading widths set in each case as a function of rotational speed, a uniform distribution of the gritting material can be achieved over the entire spreading width, the radially inner ends of all throwing blades (2, 3, 4) lie on the same radius (R) and the radially outer ends (2/1, 3/1, 4/1) of the throwing blades (2, 3, 4) lie on different radii, the outer edge (11) of the spinner disc (1) in the radial direction towards the rotational axis (7) terminating flush with the outer ends (2/1, 3/1, 4/1) of the individual throwing blades (2, 3, 4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A chill roller is formed by an outer tube (2), an inner tube (8) and by corrugated ribs which are arranged in the annular gap between the two and are soldered to the outer tube and inner tube, all the parts consisting of aluminium. The outer tube (2) is provided with a longitudinal slot (3). The unit which is formed by the outer tube (2), the inner tube (8), the corrugated ribs (5,6) and the solder material support (4,7,9) is inserted into a steel tube having a relatively low thermal coefficient of expansion for soldering. The width of the slot (3) is determined taking into account the different thermal coefficients of expansion of the steel tube and of the outer tube (2) in such a manner that the slot closes during heating to the soldering temperature, and is soldered. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A convenient method for the quantitative determination of a DNA polymerase includes contacting an aqueous test specimen suspected of containing the enzyme with the following: a single-stranded DNA template present in a concentration of at least 10<-><8> molar bases, a DNA primer complementary to the template, a source of a metal polymerase cofactor, sufficient deoxyribonucleoside triphosphates to synthesize double-stranded DNA in the presence of the polymerase, and a colorimetric or fluorescent dye which is capable of providing a detectable signal when a primed single-stranded nucleic acid is converted to double-stranded DNA by the polymerase. The rate of signal generation is then measured and can be correlated with the level of DNA polymerase in the specimen using graphical or mathematical means. The results of this method are precise, having a covariance of less than 10%. A test kit includes the reagents needed for carrying out this method. <IMAGE>

In the rim areas of the tank bottom (12) and the lower side of the removable top (14), projections (13, 15) are provided which extend into the tank (10) and have inclined portions (13a, 15a) extending away from the inner wall surface (11c) and behind which the lower rim portion (31a) and the upper rim portion (31b) of the carrier sheet (31) of the expendable cathode (30) are held, said carrier sheet extending further than the carbon sheet (32). At least one clamping bolt (40) of an electrically nonconductive material is passed through a circular hole in the carbon sheet (32) and an associated larger circular hole in the carrier sheet (31) and is mounted and secured in a current-carrying contact bushing (36) arranged in tank wall (11). Owing to the different size of the circular holes, an annular area (32b) forming part of carbon sheet (32) is clamped between the head (40a) of clamping bolt (40) and the end face (36b) of contact bushing (36), which is located in the area of the inner wall surface (11c), and the cathode (30) is thus contacted and additionally held on the inner wall surface (11c).

Abstract: A device for smoothing epileptic foci and seizures consists of one or more generators (4) of alternating low voltage at a given frequency from 2-7 Hz, which supply a given number of selected coils (1) from one or more groups of similar coils properly arranged. These coils are supplied by a current whose form, amplitude and frequency are controlled by a microprocessor (5). The currents in the coils (1) generate magnetic fields which have similar characteristics to the magnetic fields emitted by the epileptic foci. The characteristics (frequencies, power, amplitudes and coordinates) of those fields are determined with the help of a biomagnetometer (SQUID) and a proper software for data analysis. The data are processed by the microprocessor (5). A second microprocessor (6) controls the general operation of the device.

Abstract: Device for delivering several fluid media in a certain volume ratio with metering cylinders, a movable piston in each of them, which pistons are interconnected. There is a two-way switch valve with a control mechanism, depending on the piston position. Each switch valve has a pressure medium inlet, a medium outlet and two overflow channels, each connected to the cylinder part volume. Due to the fact that the pistons are also connected to an energy storage device which is charged during the stroke of the pistons and has sufficient capacity to supply the energy needed to switch over the switch valves, the device is entirely independent of any external energy source for its functioning. <IMAGE>
