Date Feb. 27, 1997A wheel hub and brake disc arrangement for a vehicle wheel includes a wheel hub with alternately following grooves and teeth with inclined flanks, and a brake disc, carried on the part of the wheel hub, having a concentric opening which is formed with corresponding teeth and grooves which are adapted to the grooves and teeth of the hub, the brake disc being locked against rotation on the hub and having a slip fit between the disc and the hub. In order to reduce the heat transfer between hub and disc and minimize the stresses in the disc caused by the temperature distribution and the mechanical effects, the tip arc length for each tooth is less than the root arc length for each groove which is delimited by two opposing flanks of adjacent teeth, the flanks each merge at the respective root side of the teeth into a first radius Ra, which in turn emerges into a second radius Rb which forms the bottom of the groove and is common for the two opposing flanks.

Abstract: A method for producing a dental prosthesis includes computer modeling of a three-dimensional prosthetic cap based on an human implantation zone. The method first includes casting an impression of the implantation zone of the human body. Then, on the basis of the moulded impression, a digital three-dimensional representation (R1) of the implantation zone is made by sensing the implantation zone with a sensor. From this, a digital representation (R1c) of the internal surface of the prosthesis is defined on the basis of the digital three-dimensional representation (R1) of the implantation zone. A digital three-dimensional representation (R2) of the external surface of the prosthesis is then defined on the basis of the surrounding parameters of the prosthesis and the digital three-dimensional representation (R1c). Then, a digital three-dimensional representation (R3) of the external surface of the cap is defined on the basis of the external (R2) and internal (R1c) surfaces of the prosthesis, taking into account the criteria of the mechanical and aesthetic characteristics which the cap must have. Based on this three-dimensional model, an actual prosthetic cap can be produced if the cap meets certain requirements.

Abstract: A centrifuge bowl suitable for separating blood components, in particular concentrated red blood cells. A centrifuge bowl 10 comprises a core 14 having an annular portion 50A and a cylindrical outer wall 50. Annular portion 50A has a thick wall for minimizing the holdup volume of blood components within a collection chamber CC and the radially inner wall of the annular portion is disposed radially closely adjacent to the opening defined by skirts 24a, 25a. The outer wall 50 defines a separation chamber SC with bowl body 12 and its upper tapered portion defines a separation region S. Three slit-like openings 52 are formed at the junction between outer wall 50 and annular portion 50A, thereby prevent back flow while permitting flow of blood components from separation chamber SC to collection chamber CC. The upper end of outer wall 50 is formed with a cylindrical hub 50B extending toward the skirt member, which hub 50B serves to prevent fluid in collection chamber CC from flowing to the interior of bowl body 12 through central opening 56.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif et un procédé de détection, qui sont utilisés pour déterminer directement la teneur en eau en phase liquide de solvants organiques et indirectement la teneur en eau en phase liquide de solides. Le dispositif et le procédé utilisent une composition réactive, qui est constituée fondamentalement du résidu séché d'un mélange 1. d'un matériau colorimétrique, de préférence un sel de cobalt ou de cuivre, et 2. d'un matériau polymère protégeant contre la vapeur d'eau. Ledit mélange est incorporé à une matrice, qui est mise au contact de l'échantillon d'essai liquide ou qui est immergée dans ledit échantillon; elle est ensuite ôtée dudit échantillon. Le changement de couleur de la composition d'essai est comparé à une échelle colorimétrique de façon à donner un résultat quantitatif de la quantité d'eau présente dans l'échantillon d'essai. Lorsque le procédé est appliqué à des solides, l'eau doit tout d'abord être extraite du solide au moyen d'un fluide d'extraction sensiblement anhydre tel qu'un alcool réactif.
