Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif permettant de produire des objets sphériques homogènes en matériau étirable, réalisé à partir de rubans de feuille, notamment à partir de feuille d'aluminium faisant moins de 0,1 mm d'épaisseur. Ce dispositif comporte un dévidoir d'alimentation (2), un ruban de feuille enroulé qui forme un rouleau, une unité de coupe (6) qui travaille en continu au moyen d'un rouleau de coupe (3) et d'un rouleau presseur (4), une unité d'étirage (5) qui étire en continu dans le sens transversal, au moins une bobine terminale (7) destinée à recevoir le matériau étirable fini et au moins un rouleau tendeur (8, 9) disposé entre le dévidoir et la bobine terminale. Afin d'assurer un fonctionnement durable sans à coups du dispositif, il est prévu de réguler le régime du moteur (10) de la bobine terminale (7). Les rouleaux tendeurs (8, 9) situés entre l'unité de coupe (6) et l'unité d'étirage (5), ainsi qu'entre ladite unité d'étirage (5) et la bobine terminale (7) sont des rouleaux non commandés qui peuvent coulisser dans des glissières (13) approximativement verticales, entre un détecteur supérieur (11, 11') et un détecteur inférieur (12, 12'). Leurs poids dépend du matériau dans lequel le film est réalisé, de la résistance et de l'épaisseur de ce dernier. Le régime du moteur (10) peut être régulé. Lorsque les rouleaux tendeurs (8, 9) atteignent le détecteur supérieur (11, 11'), le régime est réduit, et lorsqu'ils atteignent le détecteur inférieur (12, 12'), le régime est augmenté, de manière à ce que les rouleaux tendeurs demeurent en position entre les deux détecteurs (11, 12).

Title: Process for treating solutions containing sulfate and metal ions
Inventor: ROWLEY MICHAEL V
IPC: C22B3/18
Filed: 1995-04-21
Abstract: In accordance with the process of the invention, bacteria are used to provide hydrogen sulfide and carbonate compounds for treating solutions containing metal ions. To produce the hydrogen sulfide, the bacteria utilize sulfate ions present in the solution. Hydrogen sulfide produced by the bacteria is used to remove metals from the solution as insoluble metal sulfides. The process of the invention thereby removes sulfate and metal ions from the treated solution. The bacteria used are mixed populations, including strains of naturally-occurring sulfate reducing bacteria, which have been serially adapted and selected to be highly active with the particular solutions to be treated and with the carbon and hydrogen sources being utilized. The bacteria may be fed gaseous hydrogen and carbon nutrients produced by a partial oxidation burner. Carbonate compounds produced by the bacteria may be used to raise the solution pH for treatment and discharge. By controlling the addition of hydrogen sulfide and carbonate compounds to the solution, the preferential isolation of particular metal sulfide concentrates may be accomplished in separate precipitation steps, each with a specific pH and sulfide dosage.

Title: A method for the manufacturing of an absorbent structure and an absorbent article comprising an absorbent structure manufactured according to this method (iii)
Inventor: WIDLUND URBAN
IPC: A61F13/20
Filed: 1993-11-15
Abstract: A method for manufacturing of an absorbent structure in an absorbent article, such as a sanitary napkin, tampon, panty protector, incontinence guard, diaper, bed protector, wound or sore dressing, saliva absorbent and like articles is comprising the use of absorbent material in roll form directly in the product without first defibrating the material and then forming a mat. The material possesses good aquisition properties, which are meaningful to the function of the product. A high surface dryness is obtained, among other things. In addition to cellulose fibres, the absorbent structure may also include superabsorbent material and/or binding fibres, among other ingredients. The pulp mat is very thin, therewith obviating the need to compress the mat further in the product. In the case of certain product applications, the material is softened mechanically prior to its use as an absorbent material.

Title: Improved method for the refolding of proteins
Inventor: THOGERSEN HANS CHRISTIAN
IPC: C12N15/70
Filed: 1994-02-04
Abstract: A novel, generally applicable method for producing correctly folded proteins from a mixture of misfolded proteins, e.g. bacterial inclusion-body aggregates.  A major new aspect of the method is that over-all efficiency is achieved by subjecting proteins to a time-sequence of multiple denaturation-renaturation  cycles, resulting in gradual accumulation of the correctly folded protein. The method has proven efficient for a variety of recombinant proteins.  Also provided are novel encrypted recognition sites for bovine coagulation factor Xa. The encrypted recognition sites described may be activated in vitro by controlled oxidation or by reversible derivatization of cysteine residues and thereby generate new cleavage sites for factor Xa. Two new recombinant serine protease exhibiting narrow substrate specificity for factor Xa recognition sites are also provided.  They may replace natural coagulation factor Xa for cleavage of chimeric proteins.

Inventor: STORTZ JAMES L
IPC: B41J2/055
Filed: 1994-05-03
Abstract: A differential drive system is used to actuate an ink jet printhead having a spaced,  parallel series of internal ink receiving channels opening outwardly through ink discharge orifices formed in the printhead body.   The channels are laterally bounded by a spaced series of piezoelectrically deflectable internal sidewall actuator sections of the  printhead  body  interdigitated  with  the channels.    The  printhead  body  is  specially configured to facilitate wiring access to spaced apart  first  and  second  electrical  connection portions on each of the actuators.   Electrical leads from a first controller are connected to the first actuator portions and are ganged in groups that are selectively connected to a driving voltage source, or to ground, by the first controller.  A second controller has a first set of electrical leads similarly ganged in groups and connected to a first set of the second actuator portions, and a second  set   of   unganged   electrical   leads individually connected to the rest of the second actuator  portions.    The  second  controller  is operative  to  selectively  connect  any  of  its individual leads, or any of its ganged lead groups, to the driving voltage source or to ground.   In conjunction  with  the  dual  controllers,  this combination of ganged and individually addressable leads connected to the first and second actuator portions permits the actuators to be differentially driven in a manner digitally synthesizing a more complex bipolar drive system.

Title: High resolution image projection system and method employing lasers
Inventor: HARGIS DAVID E
IPC: G02B27/48
Filed: 1994-09-30
Abstract: An image projection system employing microlaser and/or diode laser arrays (11). Each laser in each array is individually addressable. The system includes three linear laser arrays, one red (12), one green (13), and one blue (14), each individually addressable laser being powered and modulated in accordance with the input image signal (21). When microlaser arrays, which are energized by laser diode pumps, are used, the laser diode pumps are formed in equivalent arrays (15, 16, 17). The laser output beams are combined in a dichroic prism (31) and reflected off a rotating multifaceted scanning mirror (22) which effects two dimensional scanning as it rotates. The image beam reflected from the scanner passes through an imaging lens (24), a speckle eliminator (25) and then onto the projection screen (27). The invention also includes the method of generating and scanning the image beam, as well as the novel speckle eliminator and the microlaser array configured for optimally close spacing to achieve the desired result. In one embodiment, the laser diode pumps are directly modulated by the video signal, while in another embodiment outputs are microlaser utilizing a spatial light modulator array.

Abstract: In an open system (TN) in which the encoding and decoding of data is performed to transmit these data between system elements (VSTA, VSTX), it is proposed to enter definitions of different data types, which these data may have, into a definition dictionary.  Generic functions are applied to abstract data types in a program for carrying out the encoding and decoding.  When the program is running, the user-specific data are entered and their data type is determined.  The definition of this data type is obtained from the definition dictionary and assigned to the abstract data types, so that the functions of the program are performed with the user-specific data.
