Abstract: In a casing, there are mounted voice coil motors in a direction z, voice coil motors in directions x and y, and zoom units. A probe is supported by support means including a spindle, first and second springs, an intermediate cylinder, a viscous element, a thicker tube portion and a thinner tube portion. The forces, as generated by the voice coil motors in the directions x and y, are transmitted through a spindle and so on to the thicker tube portion. In response to these forces, the thicker tube portion rocks on the thinner tube portion. The leaf spring of the x- and y-direction zoom units realizes the zooming function by supporting a portion of the spindle elastically.

Title: Method for preservation of article
Inventor: KASHIBA TAKASHI
IPC: B65D81/20
Filed: 1997-05-23
Abstract: There is disclosed a method for the preservation of an article by housing an article such as a food, cereal and pharmaceutical in a packaging vessel which is equipped at least in part thereof with an oxygen absorbing resin layer wherein an iron-based deoxidizing agent is kneaded with and dispersed in a theremoplastic resin so that oxygen is absorbed in the layer in the presence of carbon dioxide gas and by hermetically sealing the packaging vessel. It is preferable to house the article in the vessel, subsequently replace the atmosphere in the vessel with carbon dioxide gas, etc. so as to allow carbon dioxide gas to be present therein and thereafter hermetically seal the vessel. The mothod enables substantially oxygen-free state by the absorption of oxygen in an atmosphere containing carbon dioxide gas and permits the deoxidizing agent packaging through carbon dioxide gas replacement as well as the deoxidizing agent package of an article which generates carbon dioxide gas from itself.

Abstract: The device (12) is installed in an aperture (22) in the inner layer (18) of glass and the polymeric layer (20) of bonding to the outer layer (16). It consists of a piezoelectric chip transducer (28) with excitation electrodes (30,32) applied to its opposite faces and wired (34,36) to a control circuit. The ultrasonic signal is emitted at a frequency of e.g. 4.527 MHz, chosen so that the difference between it and the frequency of the fourth eigenmode lies between one-tenth and one-hundredth of the eigenfrequency, calculated from the thickness of the glass and the velocity of ultrasound in it.

Abstract: A gas-pressure relief valve unit, particularly for fuel
vapours, comprising a body (3) defining a chamber (10) which
communicates with first and second environments upstream and
downstream of the unit (1) respectively, through first and
second apertures (12, 14). The body is provided with valve
means (15) including a valve seat (18) interposed between the
apertures (12, 14) and an obturator (20) urged by a resilient
thrust element (24) and movable between a position of
engagement with the seat (18) and a position spaced from the
seat (18). The obturator (20) can move away from the valve
seat (18), overcoming the action of the resilient element
(24), when a predetermined threshold value of the pressure
differential between the environments is reached. When the
obturator (20) is engaged with the seat (18) and the pressure
differential between the environments is less than the
predetermined threshold value, the valve means (15) define a
narrow passage (28) which allows a small, continuous flow of
gas between the first and second environments.

Abstract: A vapor recovery valve (60) that includes two mechanisms for opening the
valves is disclosed. The first mechanism opens the valve (60) when fuel is being
dispensed by a fuel delivery system (10). The second mechanism selectively opens the
valve (60) independent of whether the fuel delivery system (10) is dispensing fuel. A
method for dry testing a vapor recovery system is also disclosed. The method involves
disabling the fuel dispensing capability of the fuel delivery system (10), and then
operating the vapor recovery system at a rate that corresponds to a predetermined
imaginary fuel dispensing rate. Next, the vapor recovery path (30) is opened, and its
operation is measured, followed by determining if it is sufficient for the imaginary fuel
delivery rate.

Abstract: Il a été recensé des domaines à activité de survie dans le récepteur du facteur I de croissance de type insulinique (IGF-IR), indispensables à la transmission du signal de survie dans des cellules de vertébrés. Dans des cellules FL5.12 transfectées par des récepteurs de type sauvage de l'IGF-I, l'IGF-I a assuré une protection contre le retrait du récepteur de l'interleukine 3 (IL-3), protection analogue à celle accordée par une expression de cellules Bcl-2. Dans des situations similaires, l'IGF-I n'a pas eu d'action mitogène notable sur des cellules FL5.12 exprimant des récepteurs de l'IGF-I. Un récepteur de l'IGF-I ayant subi une mutation sur le site de fixation de l'ATP n'a pas protégé de l'apoptose. Il n'en reste pas moins que des mutations survenues sur le groupe 950 tyrosine ou dans la grappe constituée par les tyrosines 1131, 1135 et 1136 dans le domaine kinase se sont soldées par la présence de récepteurs ayant conservé une fonction de survie. A l'extrémité C-terminale de l'IGF-IR, une mutation sur la tyrosine 1251 et sur l'histidine 1293 ainsi que sur la lysine 1294 a supprimé la fonction d'apoptose, alors qu'une mutation des quatre serines, à savoir les serines 1280 à 1283, n'a pas compromis la survie. Il a été surprenant de constater que des récepteurs, ayant subi une troncature sur l'extrémité carboxyle, avaient vu se renforcer la fonction anti-apoptotique. Les compositions selon l'invention et les techniques afférentes se sont avérées efficaces s'agissant de moduler l'apoptose dans des cellules de vertébrés.

Abstract: Fluorine contained within a photocatalyst layer containing titanium oxide and
other metallic oxide semiconductors increases the metallic oxide s photocatalytic
activity. The described photocatalyst may be in the form of either film, flake,
particulate, or fiber. In addition, it can be used for coating the surface of a base
material of various forms, such as sheet, film, flake, particulate, bar, or fiber. When
using a base material that has an alkaline-containing glass composition, establishing
a fluorine-containing layer, such as a layer of fluorine-containing silicon dioxide and
other metallic oxide, between the photocatalyst film and the base material can
prevent the deterioration of photocatalytic activity of the photocatalyst layer. The
fluorine-containing layer functions as an alkaline barrier that controls the diffusion
and migration of alkali metallic ions in the glass fibers, such as Na ions, into the
photocatalyst layer. Inorganic fiber- and glass sheet-based photocatalyst bearing
materials have an excellent capability to decompose rarefied harmful organic gases,
and are suitable for use as interior wall and air filters in super clean enclosed spaces
and conveyance spaces for semiconductor production, clean rooms for various other
purposes, and office and residential buildings, and for other purposes including air
cleaning, antibacterial action, anti-fouling action, and defogging of clear sheets
(maintaining hydrophilicity).
