Patent EP-0856721-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WALCHER HANS
IPC: G01D5/165
Filed: 1998-01-09
Abstract: The apparatus has a coarse angle generator which generates an unequivocal coarse rotary angle signal over a whole angle of rotation range over several rotations of the shaft (1). The apparatus also has a reference signal generator which generates a reference signal with each rotation of the shaft (1). The reference signal has at least two values each associated with a respective angle section. A fine angle generator generates an unequivocal fine angle signal over part of a whole rotation of the shaft (1). An analysis unit is provided via a combining module. The analysis unit determines the current number of whole rotations and the total rotation angle from the coarse and fine angle signals and the reference signal value. The shaft (1) is coupled to a stepper motor (7). A clock generator (5) generates clock signals (T) which are fed to the stepper motor (7) to output incremental rotations and are fed to the reference signal generator (2). A fine step counter counts clock signals (T). The reference signal is formed by logically combining position signals from a switch mechanism and the clock signals. At least with reference signals associated with whole numbers of rotation, the fine step counter is set to a start value. The number of complete rotations can be determined by means of the combining module (20) from the coarse signal and the reference signal values.

Abstract: This invention provides a system and method for electronic value
payment in which a practical and secure means for auditing and accounting
electronic value is achieved. The invention offers a means for identifying
"blocks" of electronic value with single electronic tags. This facility makes the
invention compact to implement and offers a practical way for tagging in
circumstances where large amounts of electronic value, such as required for
electronic representations of money, preclude the use of individual unit tagging.
The invention combines block tagging with tag flow control mechanisms which
allows block auditing and detection of counterfeit value. Independent tag (10)
and value (12) representations make it possible to operationally change the tag
associated with a block of value. The electronic value representations of the
invention are readily applied to existing value exchange systems. The invention
may be applied alongside existing value storage mechanisms, to enhance
security, or as a replacement for them.

Abstract: A developing solution for a photosensitive resin plate after exposure, which
is used for removing unexposed parts of the plate and which contains water as a
main component, and at least one refining agent selected from the group
consisting of a substance capable of ion exchange with polyvalent metal ion, a
compound capable of forming a chelate compound with polyvalent metal ion, and
phosphoric acids. The developing solution of the present invention could
suppress decrease of developing rate even if water with a high hardness was used,
and the amount of scum produced by aggregation of the resin that flew out into the
developing solution was small. Therefore, the problem of disturbance of images
during printing caused by the scum that adhered to the developed printing plate
can be eliminated. In addition, the present invention obviates problems caused
by the adhesion of scales and scum to the parts in contact with a liquid, such as
brushes, pipes and filters of developing machines. Moreover, the developing
solution of the present invention is aqueous, so that it is advantageously treated
with ease by known waste treating techniques, such as pH adjustment, addition of
adsorbent or aggregating agents, treatment with microorganisms, and the like.
Therefore, the present invention greatly contributes to the industrial world.

Abstract: The present invention is hydrophobic organosilicate-modified silica gels and a method for their preparation under neutral conditions. The method comprises two steps, where in the first step the pH of an organosilicate-modified silica hydrosol is adjusted with a base to within a range of pH 3 to pH 7 to facilitate formation of an organosilicate-modified silica hydrogel. In the second step, the organosilicate-modified silica hydrogel is contacted with an organosilicon compound in the presence of a catalytic amount of a strong acid to effect hydrophobing of the organosilicate-modified silica hydrogel to form a hydrophobic organosilicate-modified silica gel having a surface area within a range of 100 m2/g to 850 m2/g in the dry state. In a preferred process, the hydrophobic organosilicate-modified silica hydrogel is contacted with a sufficient quantity of a water-immiscible organic solvent to convert the hydrophobic organosilicate-modified silica hydrogel into a hydrophobic organosilicate-modified silica organogel. A water soluble compound of cerium or iron may be added in the second step to improve the heat stability of the hydrophobic organosilicate-modified silica gel.

Abstract: L'oxydation d'amines secondaires effectuée à l'aide de peroxyde d'hydrogène et de tungstate de sodium permet d'obtenir de bons rendements de nitrones. Cependant, lorsqu'on utilise la diméthylamine de cette manière, une quantité importante de N,N-diméthylformamide est produite comme coproduit. Afin de produire de façon plus sélective de la N-méthylnitrone à partir de diméthylamine, on a recours à un procédé en deux étapes, lesquelles consistent à: (a) mélanger une diméthylamine et un composé peroxyde, et soumettre le mélange obtenu à des conditions de réaction efficaces pour former un mélange réactionnel dans lequel de la N,N-diméthylhydroxylamine est formée; et (b) mélanger (1) le mélange réactionnel obtenu en (a), (2) un composé peroxyde et (3) un catalyseur d'oxydation renfermant un métal de transition; et soumettre le mélange obtenu à des conditions de réaction efficaces pour former un mélange réactionnel dans lequel de la N-méthylnitrone est formée.
