Abstract: An upconverter for converting IF television signals to VHF or UHF signals prior to broadcast is configured to process either analog or digital television signals. The upconverter identifies the type of incoming television signal and generates an appropriate reference signal depending on whether the incoming television signal is digital or analog. In an analog format, the reference signal is used by the modulator generating the IF signal to synchronize phase with the signals output by various other upconverters. In a digital format, the reference signal is used, for example, as a test signal for the upconversion circuit.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a laminated structure comprising an adhesive coated strip which is mounted upon a release strip wherein the release strip includes a partible break and wherein the release strip farther includes a tab. Deflection of the release strip tab in a direction away from the adhesive coated strip generates a partial separation of the release strip tab from the general plane of the release strip at the partible break causing an edge of the adhesive coated strip to be exposed for grasping by the user. The present invention also relates to methods for removal of an adhesive coated strip from the release strip.

Abstract: A method, apparatus and system for treating a stream containing H2S are disclosed. A preferred method comprises mixing the stream containing H2S with a light hydrocarbon stream and an oxygen containing stream to form a feed stream, contacting the feed stream with a catalyst for less than about 10000 microseconds while simultaneously raising the temperature of the stream sufficiently to allow oxidation of the H2S and partial oxidation of the light hydrocarbon to produce a product stream containing elemental sulfur, CO and hydrogen, and cooling the product stream sufficiently to condense at least a portion of the elemental sulfur and produce a tail gas. A preferred method further includes the step of processing the tail gas so as to react CO in the tail gas with water to produce CO2 and hydrogen and so as to convert elemental sulfur, SO2, COS, and CS2 in the tail gas into H2S, the step of contacting the tail gas with an alkanolamine absorber to produce a treated tail gas, and the step of producing H2 from the treated tail gas.

Abstract: A structural building system comprised of interconnected improved, frameless structural-load-bearing panel components, each panel component having front and back sections, an insulating core, integral symmetrical joinery, a thermal break, and at least one shear resistance connector. The panels are asymmetrical about one axis, and are designed to be directionally positioned with respect to the maximum anticipated shear force. The panel components interconnect to form frameless panel sections out of which the building system is constructed, which requires no exterior framing support members. The panel component and the resultant panel sections resist all three primary directions of force required of structural wall, roof and floor systems; the panel sections being yet stronger than the individual panel components. The panel sections can be used to construct structural walls, floors, ceilings and roofs to form complete building structures, or alternatively, conventional flooring and/or ceiling and/or roof materials may be combined with the interconnected frameless wall panel sections to form complete building structures.

Abstract: The invention refers to a syringe of single-use type intended for injection or lab tests with an injection needle slidable into the syringe after usage. The intention with this is to eliminate the risk for prick injuries when the syringe is handled after usage. A design of a single-use syringe such that the needle becomes kept in the interior of the syringe after usage has proved to be involved by different kinds of complications and has made the syringe complicated and expensive to manufacture. An uncomplicated and reliable syringe of the kind stated in the introduction is achieved according to the invention by the fact that the plunger (2) of the syringe is provided with a coupling device (12) designed such that in the completely pushed in position of the plunger the rear part of the injection needle (6) is coupled to the plunger (2) and follows the plunger when the plunger is withdrawn. Moreover, the coupling device is provided with a canal (13) penetrating the plunger to the rear side of the plunger, and is designed such that when the point of the injection needle is pressed against the cover base (4) of the syringe by the plunger being pushed, the needle slides through said canal in the plunger until only the point portion of the needle is situated in the plunger, where the point portion is fastened.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for opening continuous filaments provide stable quality of fibrous layer after opening crimped TOW. The TOW is transported by means of a plurality of rolls. While transported, the TOW is applied a resistance on one side of the TOW by slidingly contacting a sliding body onto the TOW at between rolls. As a result, continuous filaments stacked in a thickness direction of the TOW are caused to sift in a transporting direction of the TOW. Thus, the TOW is opened and the continuous filaments are spread in a width direction of the TOW. <IMAGE>
