Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FR97/01167 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 26, 1998 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 26, 1998 PCT Filed Jul. 1, 1997 PCT Pub. No. WO98/00227 PCT Pub. Date Jan. 8, 1998A device for generating foam by the Venturi effect mixes liquid and gaseous phases. The device has a liquid insertion nozzle on the same axis as a Venturi stage having a converging portion disposed facing the nozzle, a throat of diameter "D", and a gas inlet coaxial with the nozzle and in communication with the converging portion. In operation, the gas is sucked in by the Venturi effect and directed towards a mixing chamber connected to a foam outlet. Mixing between the two phases takes place in a free jet, and the diverging portion of the Venturi has at least three zones of progressive cone angles, with discontinuities between the zones giving rise to a cavitation phenomenon, and opening out into a turbulent chamber.

Abstract: A riding mower is provided with a first frame element (50) pivotably connected near a forward end to a second frame element (54) and connected at rearward end to the second frame element by spring means (72). The connecting members provide a suspension system for the mower in order to decouple the vertical movement of the first frame element (50) from the second element (54) and thereby soften the ride. A pivot bar (120) located near the forward end of the first frame element (50) is pivotably received at its ends (114) near opposite side walls of the second frame element (54). The suspension system includes two springs (72) which operate in the vertical gap between first and second frame elements (50, 54) at the rear of the apparatus.

Abstract: In summary, a method and system for performing data transmission is described, wherein a data call is detected (51) and transmitted without using a modem function (54), in case digital connection of the transmission link can be established. A negotiation (52) is performed in order to check the possibility of digitally transferring the data (53). Thereby, the use of a modem function (55) can be restricted to those cases where digital connection cannot be established. Consequently, network processing power can be saved and transmission quality improved.

Abstract: Apparatus for simulating flames, comprising a source of light, a reflector, a screen, and a flame effect member located between the reflector and the screen. The flame effect member preferably comprises a sheet of flexible fabric, provided with a plurality of slits, such that air from a fan causes the sheet to billow, alternately opening and closing the slits. Light transmitted from the source towards the flame effect member passes through the openings and falls onto the screen as an area of high intensity light, which as the sheet billows, appears to move upwardly, simulating the appearance of a flickering flame.

Abstract: The entire process of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) is simplified by using oligonucleotide-immobilized microplates made of, e.g., polypropylene, to which oligonucleotides are securely immobilized and which can be subjected to thermal cycles of PCR. RT-PCR is preferably conducted in solid-phase. Capturing of mRNA and RT-PCR can be conducted in the same plates. The cDNA synthesized from the mRNA captured on the microplates can be used more than once. Further, in combination with the microplates, a filter plate is used for the preparation of cell lysates wherein target cells are placed on the filter plate, and a lysis buffer is passed through the cell layer on the filter to transfer cell lysate directly to the microplate via well-to-well communication.

Abstract: Multiple location finding equipment (LFE) inputs are used to enhance location information made available to wireless location-based applications. A wireless network utilizes a mobile switching center to route communications between wireless stations, a network platform, and a variety of LFE systems. A Location Finding System (LFS), resident on the network platform, receives location information from the LFEs and provides location information to wireless location based applications. In this regard, the LFS can receive input information at varying time intervals of varying accuracies and in various formats, and can provide standardized outputs to the applications, for example, depending on the needs of the applications. Multiple inputs may also be co-processed for enhanced accuracy. A specification can be used to ensure that location information at least meets certain minimum criteria, such as geographical accuracy, allowable age, acceptable response time, and confidence.

Abstract: A rear light system for a trailer (1) comprises a primary housing (5) which typically is located in a prime mover which tows the trailer (3), and a right-hand sub-housing (8) and a left-hand sub-housing (9) for mounting on a rear panel (10) of the trailer (3). The sub-housings (8,9) comprise first light sources (12a, 12b) to produce light signals indicative of the direction in which it is intended that the prime mover and trailer will turn, second light sources (14a, 14b) to produce light signals indicative of braking of the prime mover and the trailer, third light sources (17a, 17b) to form tail lights for the trailer, and fourth light sources (19a, 19b) for illuminating a number plate on the trailer (3). A primary controller (6) connected to the CAN bus (22) of the prime mover detects signals indicative of activation of the direction indicators, braking of the prime mover and activation of the tail lights of the prime mover, and transmits signals wirelessly by a wireless transmitter (24) in the primary housing (6) for reception by wireless receivers (40) in the respective right-hand and left-hand sub-housings (8,9). A secondary controller (39) reads signals received by the wireless receiver (40), and on detecting appropriate signals activates the appropriate ones of the first, second, third and fourth light sources (12a, 12b, 14a, 14b, 17a, 17b, 19a, 19b).
