Title: Automated chemical synthesis device
Inventor: FRANK RONALD
IPC: C07K1/04
Filed: 1998-02-17
Granted: 2003-10-22
Abstract: Assembly for an automated and simultaneous chemical synthesis and facultative purification of solid products, has a number of separate reaction vessels or reactors which are open at the top and bottom, and are assembled into a reactor block using 10-100 vessels (especially 48). They form a number of columns (especially small columns), which can be removed separately or together. The carrier material for the synthesis is inserted into the channels or columns either between two inert and porous chips beds or as chemically-modified chip or filter beds, so that a fluid medium passed in from above can be held only by surface tension and saturation of the carrier material, with an inert gas supply if required. Also claimed is a process using linkers for a covalent linking of the product with the carrier, to give a selective and effective abstraction of the product. A universal linker can be used especially for the synthesis of materials such as oligonucleotides or peptides, where the components for the initial structural reaction can be linked with the same chemical type, which can be used for further structural reactions. A linker class of only one type of components can be used for the whole synthesis, especially only a nucleoside-3'-phosphoramidite for the synthesis of 3'-OH-oligonucleotides.

Abstract: An electronic control system for motors for the operation of winding devices, such as roller shades, roller gates, rolling shutters and similar, comprises a radio receiver (40, 50) included in the motor being controlled and a portable radio transmitter (30) available to the user. The radio transmitter (30) comprises at least two push-buttons (1, 2) for the control of the lifting and lowering movement of the winding device and a first microcontroller (6) provided with a first code memory (7) that, at each pressure on at least one of said control push-buttons (1, 2), sends a codified signal having a respective identification code of the push-button being pressed. The radio receiver (40, 50) comprises a second micro-controller (12) with a second code memory (14), that at each signal being received with one of the codes of said second memory (14), generates a control signal for a control unit (18) provided with a third memory (25) that, upon reception of the control signal, starts the motor in one sense of rotation or in the opposite sense according to the identity of the push-button of the radio transmitter (30) that is being pressed, and receives identification data of the angle of rotation from an encoder (21) that is coupled to the motor, in order to allow the motor to rotate until it reaches a prefixed limit stop. The two microcontrollers (6, 12) and the control unit (18) are programmed to allow the electronic setting of the position of the lifting and lowering limit stops of the roller shutter through a proper sequential depression of said push buttons (1, 2). It is also possible to enable one transmitter to control a plurality of radio receivers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An ostomy pouch (10) is defined by a front wall (12) and a rear wall (14) having a stoma aperture (18). One or more rupturable capsules (24) are carried on a carrier or intervening wall (44) welded to the front and rear walls at a common weld seam (16). When desired, a capsule (24) can be ruptured by squeezing, the pouch wall together at that position, to dispense the contents (for example, a deodorising agent, a disinfectant or a preservative). In one form, the carrier does not cover the stoma aperture. In another form, the contents are dispensed on the side facing the front wall (12), and the curtain (44) shields the stoma aperture (18), to prevent the agent spurting out or contacting the stoma. In another form, one or more rupturable capsules may be arranged on the front wall (12) or on the rear wall (14). A plurality of the capsules (24) may contain different agents if desired. In another form, one or more self-dissolving capsules, for example, of gelatine, may be introduced into the pouch to dispense the agent in response to environmental conditions (for example, temperature/humidity) within the pouch.

Abstract: On décrit un entier Z101 qu'on divise par un autre entier I102 pour déterminer le reste R109. L'entier I102 est exprimé par un élément polynominal comprenant des puissances de l'unité de base d'une opération sur ordinateur. Lorsque le diviseur est limité conformément à l'unité de base d'une opération sur ordinateur, aucune opération de décalage n'est requise contrairement à la méthode classique, et les restes peuvent ainsi être déterminés simplement par addition et soustraction. On obtient ainsi une dimension de code compacte et, partant, une détermination très rapide des restes d'entier.

Abstract: A PEMF therapy system uses a bi-phasic coil PEMF transducer for generating PEMF stimulation signals. The coil has a "bi-phasic" operation, such that current flows through it in two directions. A drive circuit recovers the flyback energy from the transducer coil and dumps voltage to an energy recovery capacitance circuit. The transducer is thereby energized and de-energized to provide the electromagnetic field. The same concepts are applicable to series-connected coils. The transducer is especially suited for high frequency operation.
