Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for removing air from a liquid matter in the process industry, in particular for removing of air from a coating agent used for coating paper or similar web material. In the method, the air is separated from the liquid matter by means of centrifugal force in that the liquid matter is brought into a rotational movement in such a way that the air, being lighter than the liquid matter, is separated towards the centre of the formed vortex, where liquid matter having a high air content is removed. The liquid matter is brought into rotation within a substantially vertical and stationary cylinder tube 11, in which the liquid matter is introduced in the upper portion of the cylinder tube 11 in such a way that the liquid matter is guided into rotational movement against the wall of the cylinder tube 11 while at the same time moving downwards in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the cylinder tube 11 under influence of a pressure difference. The liquid matter containing small amounts of air is removed in the lower portion of the cylinder tube 11 at the edges of the cylinder tube, and the liquid matter containing large amounts of air is removed from the cylinder tube 11 concentrically in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the cylinder tube 11. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention is a surgical instrument and specifically is a device for delivering embolic coils to a selected site within the vasculature of the human body via use of a catheter. In particular, the device involves an embolic coil having a radially enlarged member attached to one end, which coil is released by forcing the radially enlarged member axially through a distendible aperture situated on the distal end of a pusher assembly. Alternatively, the embolic coils may be mounted on a guidewire and a pusher sheath within the catheter lumen used to push through the coils through the end of the catheter lumen. The catheter has a constricted distal tip or other means of frictionally controlling the release of embolic coils. Additionally (or alternatively), the guidewire may engage the embolic coils from their interior to allow precise placement of the coils. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method is provided to ascertain the total number of cells per unit volume of a cell specimen in an apparatus which does not measure the volume of a suspension containing the specimen as it is being analyzed. The method includes mixing a suspension of a known quantity of particles having a first light scatter signal with a known volume of a cell specimen having a second light scatter signal different from the first light scatter signal to obtain a suspension having a concentration of particles per specimen volume, passing each of said particles and each cell in said cell specimen, in turn, through a light beam, each of said particles and cells producing at least one forward light scattering pattern, counting the number of cells and the number of particles in a portion of said suspension, and determining the total number of cells per unit volume of the specimen. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the method further includes correlating the light scattering pattern and fluorescence signal of the particles to a predetermined ratio which represents a threshold of minimum instrument performance and adjusting, if the predetermined ratio has not been attained, the operation of said instrument, while the particles are within the incident beam of light, until the measured ratio reaches said predetermined ratio whereby the instrument is analyzing both particles and cells in said cell suspension.

Date Apr. 28, 1994A mixed combination strategy combiner for receivers operating in high capacity digital radio links and protected with space or angle diversity is described. The combiner comprises a system which calculates the amplitude dispersion in the spectrum of frequencies of the combined signal and a device which measures the power thereof. On the basis of this information and an appropriate calculation strategy tending to minimize the BER of the equipment, a microprocessor generates signals for gain control of the stage RF of the receivers and for phase shift control for a phase shifter for the local oscillator signal sent to one of the receivers. The calculation strategy consists of minimizing a polynomial function of the power and dispersion values. Dependence of the BER on the fnotch characterizing the dispersion is eliminated, normalizing dispersion in relation to fnotch.

Abstract: 208,653. Tamamura, Y. Jan. 15, 1923. Single-rail and suspended vehicles.-A singlerail suspended vehicle for carrying a rope grip is shown in Figs. 6 and 7 which illustrate a doublorope system in which 1 is the haulage rope and 2 the carrying rope. At the unloading point wheels on the shaft 29 engage side rails and raise this shaft in its slotted bearing relatively to the carriage 24. This action raises the members 20, 21 and so rotates the grip as a whole about the haulage rope 1 which gives the necessary movement for release of the jaws. The: same lifting action eventually results in the raising of the members 25, 26 thus relieving the carrying rope entirely of the weight of the load. On leaving the unloading point, the side rails as well as a rail 3 forming a part in the run of the carrying rope, are bent downwards so that the whole weight of the apparatus first falls upon the haulage rope with the consequential closing of the jaws, after which the re-positioning of all the sliding members 26, 29 causes the weight to be shared between the two ropes. Figs. 8 and 9 show the application to a single rope system, the carriage 20 in this case being mounted directly on the pin 12. On arriving at a station the wheels 28 run on to a rail 4 and raise the member 14 relatively to the rope 1, thus opening the jaws. On leaving the station, rollers 22 engage a bent-rail 3 and rotate the carriage 20 and the gripping-jaws relatively to the member 14 until carriage and jaws are parallel to the rope 1. This action also depresses the pivot 11 and opens the jaw widely for engagement with the rope. As the journey continues, the weight of the receptacle is transferred gradually from the converging rail 4 to the rope and the increasing upward re-action of the rope during the transfer process causes the jaws to close. To prevent swinging of the load, the carriage 20 has a spring connection 30 - - 33 which allows it to be bent out of line with the hauling rope, but which automatically repositions it parallel to the hauling rope when the restraining force is removed. Specification 1565/07, [Class 104, Railways &c.], is referred to.

Abstract: 971,261. Semi-conductor devices. ALLMANNA SVENSKA ELEKTRISKA A.B. Jan. 13, 1961 [Jan. 14, 1960], No. 1469/61. Heading H1K. A switching semi-conductor device having a characteristic as shown in Fig. 8, is composed of five semi-conductor zones of alternate P and N types in an arrangement having symmetrical characteristics in both directions, the two outer junctions being adapted when traversed by a forward current to inject carriers from the outer to the next interior zone, the reverse resistance of each extreme junction being less than that of the next interior. The device is based on the properties of a PNPN device having a characteristic as shown in Fig. 1 but the addition of the N zone changes the characteristic to that of Fig. 8. If in Fig. 3 a positive potential is applied to zone 7, zones 8, 9, 10 and 11 constitute a PNPN element polarized in its forward direction with an additional N zone and with the PN junction J1 polarized in its normal reverse direction. Similarly, with the positive potential applied to zone 11 zones 7, 8, 9, 10 constitute a PNPN device polarized in its forward direction in series with a right-hand N zone 11 with junction J 4  polarized in its normal reverse direction. Junctions J 1  and J 9  must both inject carriers in the forward direction from the outer zones to the corresponding adjacent inner zones while each zone must present a low resistance to current in their reverse direction. Current in the reverse direction across each of junctions J 2  and J 3  should inject carriers to the next zone and should provide a high resistance in the reverse direction. In the particular embodiment described with reference to Fig. 6 the starting plate is silicon with a boron doping of 10<SP>14</SP> atoms/c.c. A P layer 20 is obtained by alloying a boron aluminium alloy into the silicon plate. The recrystallized zone of the silicon plate has a boron content of 10<SP>20</SP> boron atoms per cubic centimetre. Zone 21 is of N-type and is made by diffusion of phosphorus into the semi-conductor plate giving a concentration of 10<SP>11</SP> atoms per cubic centimetre at the junction with layer 20. Zone 22 is a P-type silicon with boron as the impurity and zones 23 and 24 correspond to zones 20, 21. Zone 24 is made with a wide contact surface against the copper or molybdenum supporting piece 3. Control electrodes S1 S2 are connected to zones 21, 23 to switch the device in one direction or the other. In an arrangement formed by diffusion (Fig. 7, not shown) the starting material is silicon containing 10<SP>14</SP> atoms of phosphorus per c.c. Boron is then diffused into the plate to a depth of 50 microns with a superficial concentration of 10<SP>19</SP> atoms per c.c. to give two P zones around the central N zone. Phosphorus is then diffused into the plate in a very thin zone to a concentration of 10<SP>20</SP> atoms per c.c.
