Abstract: A communication device comprising an internal power source, receiver means for receiving signals transmitted from the base station, and processing means selectively responsive to an interrogation signal received from a base station to generate a data signal for transmission to the base station. The receiver means comprises a first receiver element and a second receiver element, the first receiver element having lower power consumption than the second receiver element does when energised. At least during a standby state of the device, the internal power source energises the first receiver element so as to detect the presence of a received signal, the second receiver element and the processing means not being energised from the internal power source. The first receiver element is responsive to detection of a received signal to trigger an active state of operation of the communication device in which the internal power source energises the second receiver element so that the second receiver element is selectively responsive to a characteristic of the signal received to actuate the processing means. The invention is applicable to access control systems, especially to vehicle access control systems, and also to tyre pressure monitoring systems. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Thin steel strip is passed through a pinch roll stand comprising pinch rolls to a rolling mill comprising a pair of work rolls and upper and lower backing rolls. Strip passes through the bite between the work rolls and strip squeezing forces are applied between the work rolls to reduce the thickness of the strip. The pinch rolls apply tension to the strip passing to the work rolls. In order to minimize generation of crimping defects in the strip, the tension applied by the pinch rolls is high enough to ensure no part of the strip entering the work rolls is in longitudinal compression such as to exceed the buckling stress of the strip. The applied tension is sufficiently low as to produce no more than 1% strip elongation through creep. The strip may be hot rolled by the work rolls at a temperature in the range of 700° C.-1200° C.

Abstract: A method of making duplicate keys employs the use of a scanning device for capturing the physical profile of a master key or alternately, formulating the profile as a data construct without the use of a master key. This data construct can be assigned a unique code and stored on a database for later retrieval. Once the key profile has been captured or formulated in a data base memory device, a key may be fabricated without the need for traditional key blanks in accordance with the profile data by, for example, a three-dimensional modeling device such as a fused deposition modeling device or stereolithographic device. Alternately, a milling device or high energy beam in conjunction with a metal slug can construct the duplicate key, or an injection molder using high density molding resin can be used to construct the duplicate key.

Abstract: The activity of multiple proteins in a single living cell, portion of a cell or in a group of cells is simultaneously measured by introducing reporter molecules. The reporter(s) is chemically modified by the enzyme of interest. In some cases the enzyme(s) is affected by the addition of a stimulus or a pharmaceutical compound to the cell. The reactions between the enzymes and the reporters are diminished or terminated, and the reporter and modified reporter are removed. The activity of the enzyme(s) is determined by measuring the amount of reporter remaining, the amount of altered reporter produced, or by comparing the amount of reporter to the amount of altered reporter. A database is compiled of the activities of the different proteins. By performing a series of experiments at different time points, conditions, and varieties of cell types, a database is developed for molecular cellular mechanisms in health and disease states. By exposing cells to variety of compounds data for drug development and screening is provided.
