Patent EP-0771401-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HAUTALA REIJO KALEVI
IPC: F16L59/04
Filed: 1995-06-30
Abstract: The invention relates to an arrangement and a method for filling an insulation (27) like blown insulation wool into the interior space of a tube assembly (2) comprising an inner tube (20) and an outer lining (26) surrounding said inner tube as well as end flanges (8, 16). In the arrangement, filling means (9) are used which comprise feeder tubes (10) and pressure balancing or suction tubes (11) which function in pairs. Means (17, 18) are provided for directing an active stream of fluid, which transports therewith said insulation material, through said feeder tube (10) into said interior space of said tube assembly (2), and correspondingly, for withdrawing said fluid from said interior space via said suction tube (11, 11a). Insulation material (27) is brought to flow, with said flow of fluid, along said feeder tube (10) into said inner space of said tube assembly (2). Simultaneously fluid is removed from said suction tube (11) while preventing insulation material (27) from passing into said suction tube (11).

Abstract: Une tête de prélèvement (2), destinée à une machine automatique de montage de composants, comprend plusieurs pipettes (1) contigues chargés de retenir des composants (3) grâce à leurs ajutages d'aspiration. Ces pipettes sont disposées dans un même plan et les composants (3) présentent donc leurs centres respectifs sur une ligne approximativement droite. On utilise, pour reproduire l'image de ces composants (3) afin d'évaluer précisément leur position par rapport aux pipettes (1), un système optique original (5) qui offre, dans une direction perpendiculaire à la ligne approximativement droite traversant les composants, un grossissement supérieur à celui de la direction parallèle à cette ligne. Les images des différents composants sont donc étirées perpendiculairement à cette ligne, ce qui permet de mieux utiliser des points d'image d'un capteur (9) de caméra vidéo (7) lors de l'évaluation de l'image et donc de déterminer plus précisément la position des composants.

Abstract: A single point mutation in the human lipoprotein lipase gene which results in an A → G nucleotide change at codon 291 (nucleotide 1127) of the lipoprotein lipase gene, and a substitution of serine for the normal asparagine in the lipoprotein lipase gene product is seen with increased frequency in patients with coronary artery disease, and is associated with an increased susceptibility to coronary artery disease, including in particular premature atherosclerosis. This is expressed as a diminished catalytic activity of lipoprotein lipase, lower HDL-cholesterol levels and higher triglyceride levels. Thus, susceptibility of a human individual to premature atherosclerosis can be evaluated by: (a) obtaining a sample of DNA from the individual; and (b) evaluating the sample of DNA for the presence of nucleotides encoding a serin residue as amino acid 291 of the lipoprotein lipase gene product. Patients found to be suffering from or likely to suffer from premature atherosclerosis and other forms of coronary artery disease as a result of a lipoprotein lipase deficiency can be treated using gene therapy.

Title: Stent to be set inside a body vessel
Inventor: FREITAG LUTZ
IPC: A61L27/00
Filed: 1995-12-19
Abstract: The invention pertains to a stent to be set inside a body vessel, having a flexible support structure imbedded in a hollow-cylindrical casing made of a plastic that has limited elasticity, at least at body temperature. The support structure consists of two zigzag-shaped wires that run parallel to the longitudinal axis of the casing, mutually offset at the perimeter of the casing. Each wire (1) has at least three segments (2, 3, 4), of which the middle segment (3) forms an acute angle (α, β) with each of the two adjoining segments (2, 4). If radial pressure from without is applied to the stent at point B, then point B moves downward in the focal plane in a circular movement as angulation point C moves upward in a countermovement. As a result the two movements counterbalance each other. The stent remains stable over its entire length X.

Abstract: The actuator system, such as a geared, electric motor-driven drive, drives windows, partition walls or roof covers of a vehicle, between a first end-position in an open state, and a second end-position in an closed state. A predetermined closing force is limited according to safety regulations, when an obstacle is in the traverse path between the two end-positions. A control arrangement drives the actuator according to a detected current position. The closing force is limited by the control arrangement, when an obstacle is met, so that neither the actuation drive force, or the pressure applied to the obstacle by the stored kinetic energy of the system, exceeds predetermined values. A DC-motor is pref. used, whose speed is controlled by a pulse width modulation, and whose rotations are counted, for detecting the speed.

Abstract: A control system of an automatic transmission has a fluid transmission apparatus (12) connected to an engine (10); input speed detecting device (49) for detecting an input-end rotational speed of the hydraulic transmission apparatus; output speed detecting device (47) for detecting an output-end rotational speed of the hydraulic transmission apparatus; and drive-wheel idle rotation determining device (93) for determining whether the rotational speed ratio of the output-end rotational speed to the input-end rotational speed is equal to or greater than a predetermined value. If the rotational speed ratio is equal to or greater than the predetermined value, the determining device determines that a drive wheel is idly rotating. Thus the control system has only to calculate the input-end and output-end rotational speeds of the hydraulic transmission apparatus, and does not need to determine a change of the rotational speed of the output shaft of a transmission apparatus. The control system therefore eliminates the need to monitor the rotational speed of the output shaft, enabling quick detection of idle rotation of a drive wheel and, consequently, quick decision as to whether to inhibit a shift.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for controlling the direct process to vary the concentrations of trialkylhalosilanes and alkyltrihalosilanes in the final product. The method comprises contacting an alkyl chloride with silicon metalloid in the presence of a catalytic amount of a catalyst comprising 0.5 to 10 weight percent copper, 5 to 200 ppm tin, 25 to 2,500 ppm phosphorous and greater than zero to less than 50 ppm zinc, where the concentration of each of the catalyst components is based on the weight of silicon, at a temperature within a range of 250°C. to 400°C. We have surprisingly found that by so controlling zinc concentration, the concentrations of trialkylhalosilanes and alkyltrihalosilanes in the product can be varied.

IPC: G03F1/22

Abstract: X-ray masks are typically made by depositing and patterning a layer of heavy metal on a thin supporting membrane. The metal layer must have a relatively low and uniform stress to prevent stress-induced deformation of the pattern. Tungsten films having excellent stress characteristics are produced by employing a continuously operating capacitance-based measurement technique to allow adjustment of the deposition conditions in rapid response to changes in stress of the film being deposited. The stress gradients in the film are further reduced by introducing a gas onto the backside of the membrane as the tungsten is formed on the front side, thereby transferring heat from the membrane as the metal is deposited thereon.

Abstract: The amplifier includes a guide (G) formed on substrate (H) which contains two layers of opposite conductivity. The charge carriers in an input signal combine in a gain segment of the guide to amplify signals within the gain band. Bragg reflectors (BA, BB) are coupled to the guide and have lines with equal indices perpendicular to the guide, tuned within the gain band. Bragg rejectors (BC,BD) enclose the cavity and the equal indice lines are inclined to the direction of the guide to reject interference emitted at this wavelength by the cavity from the guide. Several such guides may be formed on a substrate.
