Date Jul. 23, 1992.An improved saddle tree assembly (10) which permits infinite adjustment at multiple points so that the tree may be selectively adjusted to accommodate the physical characteristics of a given horse. The saddle tree assembly includes a pair of laterally spaced apart, flexible synthetic resin skirts (12, 14) together with a spanning, overlying tree frame (16). The frame is coupled to the skirts by means of threaded adjustment structures (18, 20, 22, 24) permitting selective shifting between the tree frame and skirts. At each connection point between the tree frame and skirts a multiple-layer, rivet-connected plate assembly (62, 64 and 82, 84) is provided, which serves to effectively and evenly distribute the rider's weight, in order to minimize pinching or bruising of the horse's back. The skirts may be provided with slots (110) to permit the skirts to more readily conform to the horse's back and permit relative translational movement of the skirts relative to the tree frame to follow the movement of the horse's back.

Abstract: A dental matrix retainer package includes a plastic matrix retainer clamp which permits a matrix band to be unlocked from its tightened position over a tooth without releasing the matrix band from the clamp entirely, permits a matrix band to be swiveled to accommodate different mouth quadrants with removal for reorientation, permits rapid retraction of a matrix band from a tooth, and permits careful tightening of a matrix band over a tooth in order to avoid the possibility of overtightening. The package is designed so that it must be entirely disposed of after use on a patient, thereby providing maximum assurance against cross contamination.

Abstract: Two devices are connected via a single analogue signal path such as a public telephone line in such a manner as to permit the users to talk to each other while interactively modifying an image which is presented to both users simultaneously. Each device multiplexes a reduced voice signal, e.g. from a vocoder (3), with a control signal indicative of changes to make to the image, and transmits the composite signal via a modem (4). The devices either respond to both image signals to modify the image (e.g. if they are word processors responding to key presses) or to the same selected one of the signals as determined by a protocol (e.g. if a spreadsheet is being altered by only one user at a time). Each device may be stand alone, such as incorporating a computer or facsimile machine, or an adaptor for existing such machines; it may be inserted between a telephone set and the line, or have separate audio transducers and connect to the line via a telephone set.

Abstract: There exists a cooling device in which the water circuit 6 passes, in a frost-proof building 1, through a buffer container 11, a pump 7 and a heat exchanger 3 and passes, in the frost-endangered outer air 2, through a recooler 8 provided with a blower 10. In this arrangement, it is desirable if evaporation of water from the water circuit is avoided, while preventing water in the recooler from freezing as a result of the outer air. This is achieved in that the water circuit 6 is constructed, in a continuously closed manner, with a closed buffer container and with a recooler 8 having a tube bundle 9, and in that the inlet side 17 of the recooler 8 is connected to the upper side of the buffer container 11 via a switchable ventilation valve 18. By virtue of the ventilation valve, the water circuit can be completely closed, with the recooler being protected against freezing up without antifreezing agents. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An ascending and descending device for lowering and raising persons or loads on a rope, having an abseil pulley (2) around which a rope (1) is wound and which is arranged on a supporting pin (5) so as to be freely rotatable in the one direction of rotation and locked in the other direction by means of a free-wheel and non-reversing lock in such a way that, when the load to be lowered on the rope acts on one end of the rope, the rope slides on the locked abseil pulley and the frictional force developing here brakes the load and, when a tensile force acts on the other end of the rope, the abseil pulley runs freely. The ascending and descending device is to be designed in such a way that incorrect positions of the rope windings can be eliminated so that the functional reliability of the device is improved. This is brought about by the rope pulley being enclosed by an essentially tubular component (3), the distance between the tubular component and the rope being less than the rope diameter, and the tubular component having two slot-like openings (7, 8) through which the two ends of the rope run. Here, the rope guide surfaces (9a, 9b) are conveniently arranged on the inside of the tubular component. In addition, the tubular component can contain a viewing slot which enables the number of rope windings to be checked. It is especially advantageous to form the tubular component from a transparent material. <IMAGE>

Abstract: It has been found that the ligands of the group of cytokins similar to Interleukin 6 (IL-6), that is Oncostatin M (OSM), Leukemia Inhibitory Factor (LIF), Ciliary Neurotrophic Factor (CNTF) and Interleukin 11 (IL-11), induce formation of a receptor complex of which the membrane molecule gp 130 is a part. It is thus possible to formulate the hypothesis that two different surfaces of the protein (in this class of hormones), known as site 1 and site 2, bind to two different molecules: site 1 to the specific receptor and site 2 to gp 130. The invention allows the identification of these sites and the isolation of variants having, with respect to the wild hormone, a greater affinity for the specific receptor (superagonists and superantagonists) or affinity for gp 130 reduced or abolished (antagonists and superantagonists). The figure shows the construct pHen DELTA  hIL-6 and the production of phasmidic particles that can be used to select agonists of Interleukin 6.
