Patent EP-0220288-B1 (EP)
IPC: A61M1/28
Filed: 1986-04-30
Granted: 1993-09-15
Abstract: A peritoneal catheter comprises a flexible catheter tube (12) carrying porous cuff means (20, 22) to facilitate permanent securance of the catheter to the abdominal wall. The catheter tube defines, in its natural, unstressed condition, a bent segment (24) adjacent the porous cuff means. This permits the catheter to be mounted in a tunnel formed through the adbominal wall in relatively unstressed configuration, with both ends pointing downwardly toward the feet of the patient. In one embodiment, the catheter includes a flange (48) extending circumferentially outwardly of the catheter tube adjacent to the porous cuff means. The flange extends at a nonperpendicular angle relative to the axis of the catheter tube, and the slope of the flange extends transverse the direction of the bent segment. The angled flange, when sutured to the posterior rectus sheath, maintains the catheter tube in the desired tunnel direction within the abdominal wall, with the distal end of the catheter tube pointed properly downwardly toward the pelvic cavity.

Abstract: A circuit for control of the speed of an electric motor, particularly a shaded pole motor, in accordance with a control voltage includes a ramp generator (1) for generation of a sawtooth voltage, a comparison voltage (4) with two inputs which are supplied with the control voltage and the sawtooth voltage, respectively, a trigger circuit (5) whose input is connected to the output of the comparison circuit (4), and a triac (6) which is connected in series with the electric motor (7), the control electrode of said electric motor being connected with the trigger circuit. The output of the comparison circuit is connected to a control input on the ramp generator (1) which is arranged to give a steep ramp when the comparison circuit is OFF and a slightly less inclined ramp when the comparison circuit is ON. The circuit can thus also control e.g. motors with a greatly varying torque.

Abstract: The amplitude transformer (2) of the vibrator, which is fixed to a flat piezo-ceramic disk (1), narrows in cross-section towards the top and then widens again. At the widened top there is a completely concave surface (3) to accommodate the liquid (5) for atomising, the concave surface being determined according to the quantity of liquid and its surface tension. The liquid (5) for atomising is situated in the cavity (4) formed by this surface. With the vibrator in accordance with the invention, the smallest droplets can be produced without coupling fluid so that the vibrator is particularly suitable for use in pocket inhalers.

Abstract: A conveyor for a sheet-fed rotary printing press for transferring sheets away from an impression cylinder includes a delivery cylinder disposed adjacent the impression cylinder, and a chain conveyor having a plurality of sheet grippers, adapted for moving the grippers about the delivery cylinder for successively engaging sheets on the impression cylinder. The delivery cylinder has a gap in its outer periphery for receiving successive of the sheet grippers during transfer of a sheet from the impression cylinder to the sheet grippers. The sheet grippers each include a support and a pivotable gripper finger, and a displacer mounted on and extending rearwardly of each gripper support for bridging the gap in the delivery cylinder within which the gripper is disposed during a sheet transfer operation, and for maintaining tension in the sheet during transfer from the impression cylinder to the chain conveyor. The displacer is comb shaped having a plurality of rearwardly extending arcute shaped teeth. A sheet support comb also may be supported on the delivery cylinder with its teeth forwardly extending in intermeshing relation with the teeth of the displacer so as to completely bridge the gap within which the sheet gripper is disposed. Antismear rollers or like elements may be disposed on the teeth of the displacer and the sheet support comb to facilitate smooth transfer of the sheet away from the compression cylinder.

Granted: 1993-03-03
Abstract: In an enzymatically inactive, immunologically active  beta -galactosidase mutein, at least one amino acid in the natural sequence in the region between amino acids 430 and 550 is replaced by another amino acid, and the enzymatic activity is not more than 1% of that of the native enzyme. For the genetic engineering preparation of a  beta -galactosidase mutein of this type, the DNA sequence in a plasmid coding for  beta -galactosidase is altered by site-directed mutagenesis in such a way that, after expression, at least one amino acid in the region between amino acids 430 and 550 of the protein is replaced by another one. An enzymatically inactive, immunologically active  beta -galactosidase mutein of this type is used in the immunological determination of serum proteins on the enzyme immunoassay (EIA) principle using the enzyme  beta -galactosidase as labelling enzyme to trap anti- beta -galactosidase antibodies or other binding proteins directed at  beta -GAL, any of which may falsify the assay result.

Title: Procedure for the determination of the absorption of liquid of powdery solid matters
IPC: G01N33/00
Filed: 1988-08-18
Granted: 1991-06-05
Abstract: A process for measuring the liquid absorption capacity of a powder includes the step of spraying a liquid in the form of a spray cone at a constant throughput from at least one spraying device onto a powder being stirred in the mixing chamber of a mixer, the powder filing between 10 to 80% of the mixing chamber. The torque of the stirrer of the mixer is measured both before and during the spraying step, and from this measurement both a maximum level of the torque and the time difference between the beginning of the spraying step and the time when the maximum level is reached are determined. An amount of liquid absorption of the powder is then determined based upon the liquid mass which is sprayed during that time difference.
