Abstract: A method for accurately assessing and rapidly modifying the phase and amplitude of the endogenous circadian pacemaker is disclosed. A circadian cycle modification capacity assessment method comprises (before and after a stimulus) eliminating activity-related confounding factors associated with the sleep-rest cycle which otherwise mask the state of the endogenous circadian pacemaker. Based on either individual or normative assessment data, the circadian phase and amplitude modification method involves the application of bright (about 9,500 lux) light and, advantageously, episodes of imposed darkness, at critically chosen phases to achieve rapid and stable changes in phase and amplitude. The timing of the episodes of bright light may be chosen either by reference to empirically-derived phase response data, or by using a mathematical model in which the endogenous circadian pacemaker is a van der Pol oscillator. A forcing function in the model is substantially proportional to changes in the cube root of the surrounding illuminance, in lux. The amplitude of the endogenous circadian pacemaker may actually be reduced to substantially zero, so as to bring about dramatic phase modifications in diminishingly small periods of time. The methods find special utility in treating "jet lag" sufferers, shift workers, advanced circadian phase experienced by many elderly subjects, and those afflicted with delayed sleep phase insomnia.

Title: Device for fastening perforating rules on printing machine cylinders
IPC: B26D7/26
Filed: 1988-09-23
Granted: 1991-12-04
Abstract: In a device for fastening perforating rules or blades on rolls (perforating cylinders) in printing machines, the perforating cylinder (26) has at least one receiver groove (25) for a perforating rule (11) in which a clamping strip (10) provided with hydraulic clamping devices can be inserted. Said clamping devices press the perforating rule into frictional engagement with a cheek of the receiver groove. The clamping strip (10) constitutes the cylinder housing for a plurality of pressure pistons (13) which form the movable boundaries of intercommunicating pressure chambers (13') completely filled with a pressure-transmitting medium. The volume occupied by the pressure-transmitting medium can be decreased and subsequently increased by means of a pressure regulator (16). The pressure-transmitting medium used is a thermoplastic which is introduced into the pressure chambers (13', 14) of the clamping strip (10) in the liquid state and hardens after filling to a flexible body.

Abstract: An appliance (10) particularly for disinfecting contact lenses (38) disposed within a lens disinfecting solution which produces a gas during the disinfecting action, has a container body (12) with a lens holder (15) for supporting a pair of contact lenses (38) within the container (12) and a removable cap (14) with a vent means (42) which seals the container (12) to prevent contamination while permitting the venting of gases developed during the disinfecting action. The vent (42) consists of a post (46) positioned in a bore (44) such that the post (46) does not obstruct passage of gas from the inside of the container (12), and a resiliently deflectable apertured diaphragm (48) covering the bore (44). The diaphragm (48) is securely held in place over and around the post (46) whereby the post (46) protrudes through the aperture (54) in the diaphragm (48). The aperture (54) in the diaphragm (48) deflects away from the post (46) when the pressure within the container (12) exceeds a threshold pressure. Once the pressure within the container (12) is equalised with the ambience, the diaphragm (48) resiliently deflects to close the vent (42) thereby protecting the contents of the container (12) from contamination. Additionally, the apertured diaphragm (48) scrapes small particles of proteinaceous material and other matter off the post (46). Such matter is deposited on the post (46) by the exhausting gas and, if not for the scraping action, would build up on the post (46) rendering the vent (42) useless.

Abstract: On fabrique des produits tubulaires de mêmes taille et poids mais dans différentes qualités de matériau, pour un raccordement universel, avec des surfaces d'étanchéité différant de manière appropriée, afin de permettre une étanchéité adéquate sans soumettre à un effort excessif les éléments de raccordement, pour les pressions rencontrées là où chaque élément de raccordement est mis en service. L'angle du joint conique sur tous les éléments femelle (7) est le même pour toutes les qualités des produits. L'élément mâle (10) de qualité moyenne a une surface d'étanchéité (16) et une surface de contact adjacente (14) d'égale longueur. L'élément mâle (10) de qualité supérieure a une surface d'étanchéité plus longue par rapport à sa surface de contact adjacente. L'élément mâle de qualité inférieure a une surface d'étanchéité de longueur plus courte par rapport à sa surface de contact adjacente, ce qui place également la surface d'étanchéité plus loin à partir de l'extrémité distale de l'élément mâle. Cela a pour effet de former une prolongation en forme de nez sur l'élément mâle (10), rigidifiant l'élément mâle de qualité inférieure et augmentant la surface du joint d'étanchéité conique en avant du premier filetage. Ledit joint d'étanchéité est espacé à une certaine distance de l'extrémité distale par un prolongement en forme de nez non étanche, qui est au moins aussi long que la surface d'étanchéité. Ainsi on améliore l'intégralité du joint d'étanchéité, on élargit la surface de support et on réduit la tendance au grippage.

Abstract: The method and the device based thereon for automatic computer-based positioning of the printing stencils (1) for a rotary screen printing press with optoelectronic scanning of printing marks of different configurations applied to the stencils, provision is made according to the invention for the use of an optical measurement route (2, 11, 12) which penetrates the hollow cylinder wall of the respective printing stencil (1). The electric signal pattern is read into a computer which recognises the printing mark pattern on the basis of a preprogrammed logic and provides control commands to servomotors (4[X], 5[Y]) for the axial and rotational adjustment of the respective printing stencil. The underlying measurement principle has the advantage that the measurement is independent of the surface contrast of the stencil and any engraving faults will have no effect. Furthermore, different stencil diameters can be used without readjusting the measurement route. <IMAGE>
