Title: Lentille de lunette avec zone cadrage
Inventor: BOND PETER
IPC: G02C7/16
Filed: 1999-11-22
Abstract: Afin de bien choisir le bon cadrage pour prendre sur pellicule la photo idéale, l'idée de l'invention présentée, dans les lentilles pré-fumées, un cadrage placé par l'intérieur pour créer un espace plus clair par une deuxième couche de teinture.  Dans les lentilles de verre teinté, les rectangles seront de la dimension (3 /8 x 5/8 pouce), la même dimension qu'un viseur régulier de caméra 35mm. C'est à dire , dans la lentille gauche1 une zone cadrage sera à la verticale (seulement une) et dan s la lentille droite2 une zone cadrage sera à l'horizontal (seulement une).  Le site, l'endroit de la position de la zone cadrage dans la lentille sera v is- à-vis du centre de l'oeil du porteur, au regard droit devant à l'angle de 90 degrés.   L'idée d'une zone cadrage dans une lentille, vient du fait que, quand u ne personne, soit photographe ou artiste peintre etc, décide d'aller à la quête  d'un site, d'un endroit, d'un événement ou d'une personne, etc... son temps est très précieu x et avec l'usage de ces lentilles en question, cela simplifie sa tâche.  L'idée de la zone cadrage inséré dans les lentilles, c'est aussi de permettr e que ce soit discret, peu ou pas visible par autres que par le porteur des lentilles  en question.   1 et 2, vision du porteur

Abstract: It is known in the case of wind power installations for them to be equipped with a synchronous generator and to provide an intermediate dc circuit and a pulse inverter on the output side thereof as a frequency converter for variable-speed operation of the synchronous generator.      Therefore the object of the invention is to provide a pulse inverter for a wind power installation, which avoids the above-mentioned disadvantages and overall reduces the power loss with a minimum content of harmonics.      According to the invention that is attained by a pulse inverter having the features of claim 1. An advantageous development is set forth in claim 2. Claim 3 sets forth a wind power installation with a pulse inverter according to one of claims 1 and 2. Claim 4 describes an arrangement of a plurality of wind power installations according to claim 3, which are connected in mutually parallel relationship.      The invention is based on the idea of moving completely away from a pulse inverter with a static switching frequency or pulse duty cycle, as is known from the state of the art and from Figure 2, and making the switching frequency variable, more specifically in dependence on the alternating current to be produced. In that respect, in the region of the passage-through-zero of the alternating current produced the switching frequency is at a maximum, that is to say the pulse duty cycle is at a minimum, while in the region of the maximum amplitudes of the alternating current the switching frequency is at a minimum, that is to say the pulse duty cycle is at a maximum.

Patent CA-2309050-A1 (CA)
Inventor: HUGHES MISCHKA
IPC: G06F17/21
Filed: 1998-12-16
Abstract: A computerized information display system extracts text data, lists of keywords, story rankings in order of story importance, and image maps identifying the location of stories from an input of publication files from a publisher. The system can generate a simultaneous display of a page image in which a story appears side-by-side with the text for the story when a particular story is selected, in order to allow a viewer can read the text while referring to the page image for visual cues about the text passage. The viewer can select a story from a displayed list of stories ranked in order of importance relative to other stories appearing on a page. The story rankings are derived based upon comparing one or more story importance indicators: location of the story on the page; size of type font of a headline associated with the story, size of type font associated with the story text; and size of text content for the story. The viewer can navigate to the text for a story on a displayed page by clicking in the story area on the page which is linked by image maps to the corresponding text passage. The viewer can also navigate to a text passage and page image by clicking on a keyword from a list of keywords extracted from the text input from the publisher. These computerized contextual display and image navigation tools allow the viewer a highly interactive experience with the publication. They allow a publication to be converted to electronically viewable form frequently, e.g., several times per day, and in a more user friendly form than the original printed copy.

Title: Reducing background in hybridisation reactions
Inventor: DE BAAR MARINUS PETRUS
IPC: C12Q1/6832
Filed: 2001-02-16
Abstract: The invention provides a method for reducing background in hybridisation reactions of nucleic acids involving at least two homologous probes, wherein at least one of said probes is non-linear, or two homologous target sequences and a non-linear probe. Background is reduced by introducing an intended mismatch with a target sequence in at least one of said probes. The presence of the mismatch reduces the specificity of probes not entirely complementary to a target sequence to such an extent that the background signal is reduced. A set of mixed homologous probes, wherein at least one of said probes is non-linear, comprising such specific mismatch is also provided. Said set can be used for the detection of variants of a family of nucleic acids, for instance a number of HIV variants. The invention also provides kits for carrying out the methods according to the invention.

Le polypeptide soluble peut être sélectionné depuis des régions non catalytiques du plasminogène humain (à l'intérieur des 560 résidus N-terminaux de cette protéine); de ses fragments, notamment de ceux générés par digestion métalloprotéase du plasminogène; des fragments des protéines correspondantes contenant des domaines kringle tels que facteur de croissance d'hépatocytes ou apolipoprotéine (a), prothrombine, activateur de plasminogène du type tissu, activateur de plasminogène du type urinaire et leurs hybrides avec des séquences plasminogènes; des mutants des domaines kringle mentionnés ci-dessus, de ceux contenant des mutations dans des positions 20, 21, 78 et 79 à charge positive à neutre ou à charge négative; des fragments de collagène, en particulier du collagène XVIII; des fragments de prolactine, de la région N-terminal 16 kDa de la prolactine; des anticorps neutralisants dirigés contre les récepteurs pour médiateurs angiogéniques; des antagonistes d'intégrines participant à l'angiogenèse; et de leurs hybrides, dérivés ou mutéines. Chaque élément liant la membrane avec une affinité peu élevée pour les membranes peut avoir une constante de dissociation comprise entre 1µM et 1 mM, le dérivé pouvant intégrer suffisamment d'éléments avec des affinités peu élevées pour les composants de membrane pour arriver à une affinité constante de dissociation pour des membranes spécifiques comprise entre 0,01 et 10 nM.
