Title: Portable boring bar with continuous motion of the tool on the main bar through differential motion device
Inventor: DE ANGELIS GIUSEPPE
IPC: B23B41/12
Filed: 2005-09-21
Granted: 2008-05-21
Abstract: Single-motored, compact, multipurpose instrument for accurate reaming. The instrument is composed of a boring bar which is held in its position by two balancing supports. The first support contains both the driving head of the boring bar and the device for the differential movement of the tool. The second support has the function of positioning the bar.  The instrument can be applied for the on site activity of reaming couplings for shafts and flywheels in thermal powerplants, oil refineries, shipyards, paper mills, chemical factories and steel mills.  The tool carrier slides through the inside of a slot which is machined on the boring bar. The movement of the tool carrier is continuous and composed of two gears  (Fig. 1 (A)  and  (B))  having the same pitch diameter as each other, but having a number of teeth which differs by one unit. Both  (Fig. 1 (A))  and  (Fig. 1 (B))  mesh with another gear which, by rolling around the gear  (Fig. 1 (A)),  makes the gear  (Fig. 1 (B))  rotate with the same number of rotations minus one tooth. The differential motion is transferred on to the nut screw which is made to rotate of a certain angle, so the tool carrier makes a linear movement. The same idea works if one uses the spindle of another tooling machine as a motorization.

Abstract: Methods for modifying the quality of the T helper cell immune responses specific for antigens or allergens taking advantage of the Th1-promoting adjuvant effect of the Neutrophil Activating Protein (HP-NAP) of  Helicobacter pylori.  The adjuvant effect of HP-NAP protein is susceptible of therapeutic use in setting up vaccines or immunopotentiating strategies aimed to elicit Th1-type immune responses and/or to inhibit undesired Th2- or Th0-type immune responses. Clinical applications of the HP-NAP adjuvant effect for Th1 cell responses are: a) inhibition of immunopathogenic or undesired responses of Th0/Th2 type, b) potentiation of weak natural Th1 responses, that per se are unable to exert protection against pathogens or tumors.

Abstract: In the pyrolytic oil-production index method, or POPI method, the numerical values obtained by the application of the prior art POPI method are standardized or normalized. In another aspect, the POPI method and associated data are employed in combination with other empirically determined information to provide values of (1) the API gravity for the reservoir oil; (2) the Apparent Water Saturation (AS W ) of the reservoir rock; and (3) the cementation and saturation exponents that are used in the Archie equation for calculating the water saturation in the oil-reservoir rock. This method results in the standardization of the numerical values derived by the POPI method. Applying the normalization or standardization process to the POPI method results in the conversion of the numerical value of POPI O  for good oil-producing reservoir rock to a standard value.
