Abstract: To separate gas from blood, the blood is drawn by suction through a non-rotating centrifuge chamber (8) so that the blood flow follows a spiral path with a constant rotating direction round a vertical rotation axis (10), between the blood inlet (13) and outlet (15) in a downwards tapering funnel shape. At the blood inlet, the blood flow is aligned at a tangent to the rotation axis and, at the same time, at a downwards angle forming an angle (beta) open upwards of ≤ 90 degrees to the axis (10). The blood flow is extracted at the outlet (15), without changing the direction of flow rotation. Gas is extracted from the centrifuge chamber (8) at a gas outlet (23), which is located at a higher level than the blood inlet (13). Also claimed is an appts. with a suction unit connected to the blood outlet (15) at the lower end of the centrifuge chamber (8), to draw the blood from the inlet (13) in a downwards tapering spiral path to reduce rotation energy loss.

Abstract: The rotatable mixer tool (5) or similar has in an area closer to the lid a first coupling element (18) which when the container is closed by the lid couples with a second coupling element (17) of an output shaft (10). A ring gap (23) is formed between the outer diameter of the section (21) of the output shaft passing through the bore (9) and the bore (9) itself. When the lid is set on the container the second coupling element engages in the first so that the output shaft runs concentric with the lid. The output shaft can pass out through the lid and have a third coupling element (27) at its outer free end to couple with a fourth coupling element (33) of a drive shaft (31) of the electrically operated drive unit.

Abstract: The gun has a manually operated control block integrated into it which regulates the feed of constituents to the gun. The control block also controls a reversing valve in order to convey, in one end position, the liquid into a mixer chamber integrated in the outlet nozzle for radiation material, gas and liquid. The constituents are mixed with a granulate-gas mixture. The liquid is added to the granulate-gas mixture at a tangent to the flow direction of the granulate-gas mixture. The jet emerging from the nozzle flows both axially and radially along the flow's longitudinal axis, or is conveyed directly by the reversing valve in the other end position into a liquid-radiation nozzle by which the jet of liquid has no gas and granulate component.

Abstract: Cette invention consiste à simuler les changements parallactiques dans l'apparence d'une surface en effectuant un mappage de texture. Lorsqu'une image est calculée, on effectue le mappage de plusieurs textures sur la même surface. Lorsque le point de vue depuis lequel on observe la surface change, les applications des coordonnées de ces textures sont décalées les unes par rapport aux autres. On fait normalement apparaître une texture sur un pixel de la surface. Dans le cas où ce pixel se trouve à un état de 'transparence', on fait alors apparaître l'autre texture.

Abstract: A system for the distribution of electric energy for low voltage boards, in particular for amperages higher than 630A, comprises parallel conductive bars (1) connected to a supporting structure (2) with connecting and locking means (5) and interposed insulating supports (6), wherein said conductive bars (1) are placed on vertical parallel planes spaced and at different height levels according to a stepped arrangement. The different height levels may have an increasing or a decreasing trend. Alternatively, the two arrangements by different height levels having and increasing respectively a decreasing trend may be arranged especially with respect to a horizontal plane or facing one another. Such arrangements of the conductive bars (1) allow not only an easy maintenance and an easy control of the locking elements, but also a reduction in the bending stress and therefore the deformation to which bars are submitted in case of short circuit. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system delivers cryogenic gas at a high pressure from a supply of cryogenic liquid maintained at a low pressure in a bulk tank. The bulk tank supplies liquid to at least one transfer tank. The transfer tank is pressurized by connecting it to a pressure building tank containing gas at a high pressure. A heat exchanger is connected in circuit between the transfer tank and the pressure building tank. The transfer tank provides liquid at a high pressure to the heat exchanger so that a vapor is produced. This vapor is fed to the pressure building tank so that the high pressure therein is maintained. The transfer tank provides a high pressure flow of liquid to a vaporizer and a high pressure gas storage tank so that high pressure cryogenic gas may be produced and stored. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A scheme for propagating, between views of network, status information for elements of the network in a way that mirrors how the network is maintained. The propagation scheme divides the elements of the network into either connections or equipment, groups the elements in each of these two partitions into increasingly higher-level views and propagates status of fundamental and compound objects between the different views to help locate the source of any malfunction of the network. This status propagation scheme is particularly suited for monitoring a wide-area network, where there are more connections and more complex equipment than in a typical local area network, these connections are usually, more geographically disbursed, and most importantly these connections are maintained by different people than those who maintain the other equipment of the network. By providing both a multi-level equipment hierarchy and a multi-level connection hierarchy, and providing both upward and sometimes downward propagation of status information between different views of the network, the present invention makes possible more rapid diagnostic of both connection and other equipment malfunction. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>
