Abstract: PCT No. PCT/FI87/00034 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 16, 1987 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 16, 1987 PCT Filed Mar. 13, 1987 PCT Pub. No. WO87/05644 PCT Pub. Date Sep. 24, 1987.A floater dryer for drying a web-shaped (W), moving material, in particular a paper or cardboard web. The dryer comprises a plurality of radiation/air blowing units (10) which are provided on one side of the web (W) or on both sides (10A,10B). The units (10) have been shaped to be blow boxes having on their side facing the web (W) a contact-free carrier surface (21R,27) and into conjunction with which is blow, through a nozzle aperture (20a,20b) opening on the leading and/or trailing edge of the carrier surface, an air jet (Ful), or air jets (Fua,Fub). The jets will have a substantially large component parallel to said carrier surface. In conjunction with the radiation/air blowing units (10) are provided radiation elements (30) from which into the treatment interval (P1, P2, P-) is directed radiation (SO) through a window (27). The window at the same time serves as carrier surface for the air support of the web (W). The air flows (F3,F4) from the blow box are also conducted to serve as cooling air for the radiation elements (30) and for components in conjunction therewith. On the side opposite to the carrier surface (27,21R) of the radiation/air blowing units (10) may be provided a mirror arrangement (32,33) which returns radiation that has passed through the web (W), back to the web (W).

Abstract: Dans une forme préférée d'exécution, un dispositif permettant de déterminer les valeurs d'une fonction périodique par interpolation reçoit des signaux A, B, C, D de la fonction périodique, ces signaux étant nominalement en quadrature de phase les uns par rapport aux autres. Ces signaux sont combinés pour produire des fonctions de sinus et cosinus (SN, CS) à partir desquelles une interpolation est effectuée par un ordinateur (25). Dans les dispositifs connus, la précision dépend essentiellement de la séparation de phase réelle des signaux, très proche de la séparation de quadrature nominale. Dans la forme d'exécution ci-décrite, cette dépendance est réduite en dérivant chaque fonction SN, CS d'au moins trois signaux parmi les signaux A, B, C, D, par exemple sous la forme 2B-A-D et 2C-A-B. Sont également décrites d'autres formules de dérivation des fonctions SN, CS. Dans une variante, on utilise trois signaux d'entrée A1, B1, C1 qui présentent une séparation de phase nominale de 120°C, plutôt qu'une séparation de quadrature; dans encore une autre variante on utilise cinq signaux d'entrée.

Title: CLONING AND EXPRESSION OF THE 47-KILODALTON ANTIGEN OF -i(TREPONEMA PALLIDUM).
Inventor: NORGARD MICHAEL V
IPC: C12R1/91
Filed: 1987-09-21
Abstract: Monoclonal antibodies directed against the 47 kDa major outer membrane surface immunogen of virulent Treponema pallidum were used to select E. coli recombinant clones expressing the 47 kDa immunogen. The phenotype of the clones was dependent on the presence of recombinant plasmid in the host cell. Southern hybridization revealed that the cloned T. pallidum DNA sequence was an accurate representation of the T. pallidum genomic DNA arrangement. Purified IgG from rabbits experimentally infected with T. pallidum and human secondary syphilitic sera specifically reacted with the clones while normal human serum or IgG from normal rabbit serum did not. Results of Southern hybridization indicated that a homologous 47 kDa immunogen gene was absent in at least 4 species of nonpathogenic treponemes tested, as well as from total rabbit genomic DNA. Rabbit anti-T. phagedenis biotype Reiter (treponemal nonpathogen) antiserum and a monoclonal antibody directed against a "common" treponemal determinant were unreactive with the clones. Western blotting and radioimmunoprecipitation experiments with specific monoclonal antibodies revealed that the recombinant (E. coli) and native (T. pallidum) forms of the antigen had identical electrophoretic mobilities. The availability of recombinant 47 kDa immunogen provides a new opportunity for biochemical analysis of the protein, structure-function studies, examination of its role in microbial pathogenesis, and assessment of its diagnostic and vaccinogenic potentials.

Abstract: The invention provides an efficient and reliable method for extinguishing fire of a chlorosilane compound, which is a notori­ously dangerous inflammable material in respect of the difficulty of extinguishment of fire thereof, by sprinkling a specific porous inert silica based or silica-alumina based powder defined by the content of silica or overall content of silica and alumina as well as various parameters as a powdery material followed by spraying an aqueous solution of sodium chloride, potassium chloride or calcium chloride. The fire extinguishing efficiency can be further enhanced when the sprinkled powder is a blend of the above defined porous powder and a specific silica sand in a specified proportion. When the sprinkled powder is such a binary blend. considerably good re­sults can be obtained even by omitting the step of spraying of the aqueous salt solution.

Abstract: This watch comprises a sector (6) with two fixed index marks (8, 9). This sector is on the periphery of the dial and occupies an angular space of 90 DEG . The dial has a peripheral zone (10) in another colour, and the rest (5) of the dial has yet another colour. A transparent movable disc is mounted on the seconds spindle. Two series of movable index marks (3, 4) are placed on this disc. The index marks of one series alternate with those of the second series. Each series comprises four index marks. The index marks of one series are closer to the centre than those of the other series. The index marks which are furthest from the centre pass over the peripheral zone (10) upon rotation of the disc. This zone has the same colour as this series of index marks. The movable index marks of the series closest to the centre pass over the rest (5) of the dial, and have the same colour as the dial. Two different movable index marks can only appear entirely in the sector (6). The movable index marks disappear from view when they leave this sector, since they have the same colour as the background. The watch enables nurses to measure the pulse for 15 seconds without error, without having to engage a counter and waiting a maximum of two and a half seconds before commencing counting. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The ski boot comprises a lower shell (1) with which a rear portion (2) of the shaft and a front portion (3) of the shaft are connected so as to be articulated. The lower shell (1) comprises a cut out portion (7) in the rear in the area which is provided for enclosing the lower leg, an insert piece (8) which is arranged at the rear portion (2) of the shaft being insertable in the cut out portion (7). The inclination position of the rear portion (2) of the shaft, and accordingly the inclination position of the entire shaft, can be determined by means of the cooperation of the flanks (7a, 8a) of the cut out portion (7) and the insert piece (8) which extend in the longitudinal direction of the shaft, which inclination position can be varied by means of insert pieces (8) having different radian measures. A clamping device (10, 11) which, in addition to a heel pull (17, 18), is supported at the lower shell (1) serves to fix this inclination position. The ski boot has a great degree of comfort due to the shaft portion (2), which can be swiveled back, and has athletic characteristics due to the shaft which is adjustable with respect to the inclination position and encloses the lower leg of the wearer.
