Patent EP-0343376-B1 (EP)
IPC: H05K3/22
Filed: 1989-04-19
Granted: 1990-12-27
Abstract: Preforms (1) by means of which interruptions in conducting paths are bridged and electrically and mechanically connected to the conducting path on both sides of the interruption have hitherto been made by stamping from a solder-coated metal band. As the width of the conducting paths has become reduced to less than 100  mu m, such a stamping process is no longer possible due to the instability of the stamping die. The approach of the solution uses the etching technique for making a preformed panel (2) with a plurality of preforms (1) but attention must be paid to the fact that the solder layer (3) must not yet be applied to the metal band (5) at the time of the etching. This is done to circumvent so-called underetchings. The invention provides that a solder layer (3) is applied by means of sputtering to the etched-out preform (1) which only consists of the substrate (4) which was made from the metal band (5).

Abstract: Method of avoiding the inadvertant overwriting of video signal parts recorded on a video magnetic tape and video magnetic tape recorder for carrying out this method. In known methods a mechanical switch mounted on the magnetic tape cassette casing is repositioned or a plastic tab fastened to the magnetic tape cassette casing is broken out. It is intended that the new method will not rely on mechnical means on the cassette casing. Furthermore, it is intended that in the new method it will be possible to decide individually for each recording on a video magnetic tape whether it should be overwrite-protected or not. For this purpose, it is tested before each recording whether the control track of the video magnetic tape already has control track pulses having a characteristic coding or not. If this is the case, the already effected recording will be identified as overwrite-protected and overwriting of this recording will be prevented. If this is not the case, the control track pulses associated with a new recording to be protected will be recorded with a characteristic coding. Video magnetic tape recorder <IMAGE>

Abstract: For obtaining pure water and products dissolved in water, the water is introduced in fine distribution into an inert carrier gas stream, a predetermined  partial pressure for the carrier gas being set in the carrier gas/steam mixture, which forms as a result of heating of the carrier gas/steam mixture until the steam thus generated is superheated. The solid particles are precipitated from the carrier gas/steam mixture. The purified carrier gas/steam mixture is cooled until the steam condenses, and the heat thus released is utilised within the process. For heating the carrier gas/steam mixture, the water to be purified is first partially vaporised by supplying heat and the brine formed in the partial vaporisation is introduced into the carrier gas stream. The steam formed in the partial vaporisation is at least partially compressed, after the brine has been separated off, and is used with heat release, on the one hand, for heating the carrier gas stream after feeding of the brine for adjusting the superheated carrier gas/steam mixture and, on the other hand, for partial vaporisation of the water. The purified carrier gas/steam mixture is utilised, with a condensation of the steam contained therein, for preheating the water which is to be purified. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention discloses immunopotentiating agents which stimulate an immune response. These agents are categorised into single agents that act directly, adjuvants added concurrently with the agents, or heteroconjugates. Heteroconjugate agents elicit or enhance a cellular or humoral immune response which may be specific for an epitope contained within an amino acid sequence. Enhanced hematopoieses by bone marrow stem cell recruitment was also a result of administering soime of these agents. Examples of immunopotentiating agents include monoclonal antibodies and proteins derived from microorganisms (e.g., enterotoxins) which activate T cells. One method of treatment disclosed uses only the immunopotentiating agent to stimulate the immune system. Another uses adjuvants in combination with the agent. A third method employs heteroconjugates. Heteroconjugates comprise: (a) an immunopotentiating protein which is characterised as having an ability to stimulate T cells; and (b) a second protein having an amino acid sequence which includes an epitope against which a cellular or humoral response is desired. This invention also relates to a method of preparing the heteroconjugate, and to a method of stimulating the immune system in vivo in a novel way. One route of stimulation is to activate T cells, in some instances, specific subsets of T cells, by administering heteroconjugates containing an immunopotentiating protein and a second protein, to mammals. For this method of treatment, the second protein in the heteroconjugate is derived from abnormal or diseased tissue, or from an infectious agent, alternatively, the second protein is produced synthetically by standard methods of molecular biology. Sources of the second protein include tumors, viruses, bacteria, fungi, protozoal or metozoal parasites. Monoclonal antibodies or T cells prepared from mammals whose immune systems have responded to administration of the heteroconjugate may be produced and administered to induce passive immunity. A method of preparing a hybridoma which secretes said monoclonal antibodies and use of these monoclonal antibodies and T cells, are also disclosed. This invention is also directed to a vaccine comprising the heteroconjugate.
