Title: Method of extinguishing fires
Inventor: DILLMAN BRUCE A
IPC: A62C31/00
Filed: 2003-07-31
Granted: 2011-09-27
Abstract: A method for subduing a fire (70) is disclosed. This method is performed by operating a jet turbine (20), having an exhaust (22), to direct the exhaust (22) into a moving front of the fire (72), generally against the movement of the front of the fire (72). A retardant (30), preferably dust, is directed from a supply tank (40) into the exhaust (22), through a pressurized conduit (42). Alternately, dust or other material (32) is lifted from the land around the fire (70) and blown into the fire (70), extinguishing the fire (70) or decreasing its intensity. To completely extinguish the fire (70), it may be necessary to further douse the fire with either or both water and a second retardant.

Granted: 2006-02-14
Abstract: The present invention describes a method (400), computer program product (200) and system (100) for executing a function of a data processing computer system (100). The function relates to an object (125). The method is performed by the steps of displaying a graphical representation of an object on a display device (120), receiving movement data (131) from an input device (130), identifying a matching movement pattern (221) that matches the cursor movement (121), which corresponds to the movement data, selecting a function (241) that relates to the matching movement pattern and the object and executing the function for the object. The identifying step can be performed by measuring the cursor movement as changes of the cursor coordinates (122 to 124) over time. The result is compared to a plurality (220) of predefined reference movement patterns. One movement pattern is selected out of the plurality of reference movement patterns as the matching movement pattern for said object.

Granted: 2011-10-04
Abstract: The present invention is related to a tampon for feminine hygiene, having an insertion end (32), a recovery end (34), a recovery tape (35) and a solid core (38) made of highly compressed fibrous material which is compressed radially with respect to the tampon axis at least partially relatively uncompressed longitudinal ribs (40) extend radially outwardly at equal circumferential angle intervals and between the insertion end (32) and the recovery end (34) from said core (38), wherein the longitudinal ribs (40) are separated for one another by longitudinal grooves (42). The longitudinal ribs (40) and the longitudinal grooves (42) are spirally shaped. Furthermore, the invention is related to a method and operated for producing said tampon. A considerable reduction of the risk of leakage after the tampon has been put into use is achieved by extending the time over which the tampon absorbs a body fluid, and by enlarging the surface of the tampon and increasing the fiber quantity available for immediate absorption of body fluid after the introduction of the tampon, in particular in the area of the fiber core.

Ce procédé comprend les étapes suivantes : a) on prépare une première solution comprenant des homodimères de la sous-unité p66 en présence d'un agent de dissociation, b) on met en contact cette première solution avec des sous-unités de TI p51, et on incube ce mélange en présence d'un tampon de réassociation afin de permettre la formation d'un complexe des sous-unités TI p66/p51, l'une de ces sous-unités comprenant un marqueur d'affinité et l'autre sous-unité comprenant un marqueur détectable, c) on fait entrer en contact le produit d'incubation obtenu à l'étape b) avec un support d'affinité dans des conditions permettant la liaison du complexe p66/p51 avec le support d'affinité, et d) on détermine la quantité de complexe formé en mesurant le niveau de marqueur détectable lié avec le support d'affinité (ou en mesurant l'activité polymérase de la TI reconstituée). Les étapes a) à d) peuvent être effectuées éventuellement en présence d'un composé d'essai, et sont suivies, le cas échéant, d'une étape e) consistant à comparer l'échantillon de composé d'essai avec un échantillon témoin ne contenant pas ce composé. La formation d'un complexe p66/p51 modulé dans l'échantillon contenant composé d'essai donne une indication de la capacité du composé à moduler, à inhiber ou à stimuler l'hétérodimérisation. Ce procédé peut être utilisé pour un criblage permettant l'identification d'inhibiteurs de la dimérisation de la TI du VIH.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for controlling an electric door drive. During a learning process determination of the course over time of the torques of the door drive for each of at least one opening process and closing process is carried out.  Maximum permissible torques are derived from the ascertained torques for predetermined zones within an opening process and closing process. During operation of the door drive a comparison of the current torque with the maximum torques and a comparison of the current speeds of the door drive with predetermined target speeds are carried out. The current speed of the door drive is increased if the associated target speed is fallen below. In addition, switching-off the door drive takes place if the current torque exceeds the associated maximum torque.
