Abstract: A toolholder 1 of the type including a collet 5 integrally formed with a shank 3 is provided with an interface between a locknut 7 and collet 13 which substantially reduces the torque required to turn the locknut 7 into a position which radially collapses the collet segments 17. In this interface, one of either the inner locknut surface 23 or the outer surfaces of the collet segments 17 includes an engaging portion 56 for wedgingly flexing the collet segments 17 inwardly when the locknut is turned, and a non-engaging portion 58 disposed between the engaging portion 56 and the shank mounted ends of the collet segments 17. The non-engaging portion 58 reduces the torque required to turn the locknut 7 by reducing the binding forces that would otherwise occur between the ends of the collet segments 17 and the inner locknut surface 23. To further reduce torque, the collet portion interconnecting the collet segments 17 with the shank 3 of the toolholder is rendered thinner by the provision of circumferential grooves 72, 76 that make the collet segments 17 more flexible. Sealing rings 66, 74, 81 are seated in grooves 68, 72, 76 present in the interior defined by the collet segments 17 in order to prevent errant flows of coolant or debris from collecting between the collet segments 17 and the tool shank 9 gripped thereby.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for preheating the scrap by reheating the exhaust gases and to a device for performing the method. In a device that is known in the art and is described in EP-C-0190313 there is a melting furnace (1) into which a feeder channel (3) for the scrap (4) leads (figure 1, which shows the prior art). The exhaust gases produced in the furnace (1) are made to flow in countercurrent in the channel (3) and are aspirated by the aspirator duct (8). In order to cause the combustion in the channel (3) of the combustible gases contained in the exhaust gases and preheat the scrap (4), the channel (3) has a series of air feeder nozzles (9) distributed along the channel (3). In this device, however, it is not possible to obtain a flame along the channel (3) and therefore the preheating is insufficient. According to the invention, in order to improve the combustion of the gases in the channel (3), one takes into account, in terms of method, the propagation of the flame along the channel (3), which is controlled. This is achieved, in terms of a device, by virtue of the system of concentrating the air feeder nozzles (11) in a single point of the channel (3) that is arranged in the vicinity of the melting furnace (1), where the nozzles (11) then direct their jet of air so as to increase the flame propagation rate along the channel (3). In a preferred embodiment, two types of nozzle (11') and (11'') are used: one (11') blows the comburent air at right angles to the direction of the exhaust gases in the channel (3), and the other one (11'') blows the comburent air parallel to, and in the same direction as, the exhaust gases in the channel (3). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Proliferation of retinal pigment epithelium following surgery or trauma is prevented by contacting retinal pigment epithelium cells with a therapeutic amount of a retinoic acid receptor (RAR) agonist, preferably one with specific activity for retinoic acid receptors. Preferably the RAR agonist is also a potent antagonist of AP1-dependent gene expression. Alternatively, the proliferation of retinal pigment epitelium is ameliorated with a therapeutic amount of an AP-1 antagonist, alone or in combination with an RAR agonist. The drug can be administered by bolus injection into the vitreous cavity using a dosage from about 50 to 150  mu g, or by slow release from liposomes or an oil tamponade injected into the vitreous cavity. Formulations for preventing proliferation of retinal pigment epithelium are also provided.

Abstract: The invention consists of recombinant gene expression vectors and vaccines useful in immunization of a host against an antigen and methods for use of such vectors and vaccines. In particular, the recombinant gene expression vectors of the invention are plasmids, cosmids or viruses which include non-coding, palindromic regions of single or double-stranded DNA or RNA polynucleotides which include at least one cytosine-guanine dinucleotide motif in each palindrome. These polynucleotide regions of each expression vector are immunostimulatory and serve as adjuvants to vaccination protocols against target antigens. Most preferably, the recombinant gene expression vectors of the invention are naked; i.e., non-viral vectors not associated with a delivery vehicle such as a liposome. The invention also includes live viral vaccines wherein the viruses include immunostimulatory polynucleotides of the invention. According to a preferred method of the invention, a target protein antigen is administered through its expression by a recombinant gene expression vector which contains the non-coding, immunostimulatory polynucleotides of the invention. In the most preferred embodiment of the method of the invention, the recombinant gene expression vector is administered to a tissues of the host which contain a relatively high concentration of antigen presenting cells (e.g., skin or mucosa) compared to other host tissues.
