Patent EP-0299226-B1 (EP)
IPC: E04G17/14
Filed: 1988-06-16
Granted: 1992-09-02
Abstract: The shuttering for making concrete building-elements has at least one flat shuttering element consisting of a composite material with a metal lattice as support and at least one foil provided on this support. 
<??>In known shutterings of this type, stiffening is achieved by arranging spacers at a relatively short mutual distance in the longitudinal direction of the shuttering and in a direction perpendicularly thereto. 
<??>The object of the invention is to construct a shuttering of the type mentioned which is light, easy to handle and has improved rigidity. 
<??>To solve this object, the invention proposes the use of space lattice or lattice support-like stiffening elements consisting of three longitudinal rods, which extend in the longitudinal direction of the stiffening element, are arranged at a mutual distance next to one another and are formed from structural steels, and of a plurality of transverse elements connecting these longitudinal rods to one another and produced from structural steel.

Title: Compact cooling water treatment plant
IPC: C02F9/00
Filed: 1988-08-25
Granted: 1992-04-08
Abstract: In a process and equipment for treating circulation water of open circulation cooling systems, preferably in cooling tower circulation systems, a solution is to be found which simplifies the monitoring and treatment of circulation water of open cooling systems and, in particular, makes this possible over a long period without laboratory analysis and manual monitoring. 
<??>This is achieved in the process according to the invention by arranging that at a preferred location at least a part of the flow is continuously diverted from the circulation water and flows through a compact and standardised modular unit for the treatment of circulation water, in which successively and automatically, the pH of the partial stream of water is determined and, if necessary, depending on the measured pH, acid is metered in to establish a desired pH, the conductivity of the partial stream of water is determined, preferably inductively and, if necessary, depending on the measured conductivity value, a clarifying unit is activated, corrosion protective agent is added, if necessary, to the partial stream of water as a function of the amount of additional water added to the circulation water to make up for losses, at phased intervals organic and/or inorganic biocides are separately added to the partial stream of water through further metering devices and the partial stream of water is filtered in a filter with automatic back washing, and subsequently the partial stream of water is fed back continuously to the circulating water.

Title: Artificial spinal disc
IPC: A61F2/44
Filed: 1988-02-09
Granted: 1992-08-12
Abstract: An artificial disc for a human spine has upper (26) and lower (28) members hinged together at their rear portions and biased apart at their fronts by stiff coil springs (72). Rear stop surfaces (103) limit the opening movement of the members. Vertically projecting tabs (46,64) at the front and side of each member are rigidly screwed to the adjacent vertebrae. Tolerances between the pin (66) and apertures (60,62) of the hinge allow limited side to side rocking. The disc and screws are made of titanium alloy or cobalt chrome alloy. In a modified version the hinge pin (66) is replaced by cables tying the members together.

Abstract: An analytical test device useful for example in pregnancy testing, comprises a hollow casing (500) constructed of moisture-impervious solid material, such as plastics materials, containing a dry porous carrier (510) which communicates indirectly with the exterior of the casing via a bibulous sample receiving member (506) which protrudes from the casing such that a liquid test sample can be applied to the receiving member and permeate therefrom to the porous carrier, the carrier containing in a first zone a labelled specific binding reagent is freely mobile within the porous carrier when in the moist state, and in a second zone spatially distinct from the first zone unlabelled specific binding reagent for the same analyte which unlabelled reagent is permanently immobilised on the carrier material and is therefore not mobile in the moist state, the two zones being arranged such that liquid sample applied to the porous carrier can permeate via the first zone into the second zone, and the device incorporating means, such as an aperture (508) in the casing, enabling the extent (if any) to which the labelled reagent becomes bound in the second zone to be observed. Preferably the device includes a removable cap for the protruding bibulous member.

Filed: 1988-06-13
Granted: 1992-10-28
Abstract: An image recording apparatus (10) is provided with relatively inexpensive circuitry for formatting image signals to a printhead (20). The circuitry includes an integrated circuit memory chip (52) having sufficient buffer memory sites for storing either a full line of image signals to be printed or image signals sufficient for filling more than one shift register assemblage (41) associated with the recording element driving means. Rasterized image signals are fed to said memory chip (52) in consecutive sequential order. A printhead (20) includes a plurality of recording elements (30) such as LED's arranged in a line configuration. Driving means (44) actuate said elements for recording on a line by line basis. Intermediate register means (57, 58) outputs the image signals in parallel to each of the shift register assemblages (41). Image signals are read from the memory chip (52) means to the intermediate register means (57, 58) in a non-consecutive sequential order. The control for writing data into and reading data from the memory chip comprises a counter (53) and several flip-flop registers which together provide addresses to locations in the memory chip (52).

Title: Drawing press
IPC: B21D25/02
Filed: 1989-12-27
Granted: 1992-12-23
Abstract: A drawing machine for drawing a workpiece (41) comprises first and second drawing dies (42, 43), first and second push rods (45, 46, 47, 48) and first and second junction rods (53, 54). When the first push rods (45, 46) are downwardly moved, the first junction rod (53) is pressed and moved by the first push rod (45) to press the first drawing die (42). Consequently, the first drawing die (42) forms a first-stage drawn part in the workpiece (41). When the second push rods (47, 48) are downwardly moved, the second junction rod (54) is pressed and moved by the second push rod (48), to press the second drawing die (43). Consequently, the second drawing die (43) forms a second-stage drawn part in the workpiece (42). Thus, a plurality of stages of drawn parts can be formed by the same machine. A large number of holes (51, 52) may be provided in a junction die (55) for receiving junction rods (53), to insert the junction rods (53) in only prescribed ones of the holes. When the second drawing die (43) is changed in configuration or size, the positions of the junction rods (53) are also changed in response. Thus, jigs and tools can be efficiently exchanged in a short time in order to upper die with different patterns of drawing.
