Abstract: A mail insertion machine (10) having an elongated insert track (12) with one or more insert dispensing devices (16) with rotary insert feeding mechanisms (22) for depositing inserts at longitudinally-space movable driving members (14) on the insert track includes a power train interconnected between the driving members and each insert dispensing device for driving them in a predetermined phase relationship with a phase-adjustment mechanism for adjusting the phase relationship. The phase-adjustment mechanism includes first and second power transmitting elements (28, 30) which can be selectively engaged with and disengaged from one another by an engaging mechanism (38), an electronic sensing and indicating mechanism mounted on the first and second power transmitting elements for sensing their positions relative to one another and providing an electronic phase-indication signal indicative thereof, and a phase-adjustment mechanism (54, 60, 64) coupled to the power train for acting on the power train when the first and second power transmitting elements are disengaged to achieve a desired phase-indication signal from the electronic sensing and indicating mechanism. In one embodiment, phase adjustment is accomplished by an electric motor which is automatically adjusted by a control system responding to the phase-indication signal and input instructions.

Abstract: A stacker assembly for receiving generally flat documents, such as mailing envelopes and flats, in on-edge relation and maintaining the documents in upstanding side-by-side stacked relation as they accumulate in the stacker assembly. A receiving station is supported at one end of a horizontal support plate and guides successive incoming documents into stacked relation transverse to the longitudinal axis of the stacker assembly. A stacker plate is supported to engage the forwardmost document in the stack and is movable longitudinally of the stacker assembly in response to accumulation of documents in the stacker. Means in the form of a negator spring and a wedge plate cooperate with the stacker plate in a manner to apply a variable pressure against the documents so as to accommodate both thin lightweight and heavier documents in the stack while maintaining them in upstanding relation.

Abstract: A method, composition, device, apparatus, and kit for the determination of the presence or amount of an analyte by monitoring an analyte-mediated ligand binding event in a test mixture which contains the analyte to be assayed, a specific binding member, a Raman-active label, and a particulate having a surface capable of inducing a surface-enhanced Raman light scattering. The test mixture is illuminated with a radiation sufficient to cause the Raman-active label in the test mixture to emit a detectable Raman spectrum. The differences in the detected surface-enhanced Raman scattering spectra are dependent upon the amount of the analyte present in the test mixture. Thus, by monitoring these differences, the presence or amount of the analyte are determined. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and composition for treating metal surfaces to improve corrosion resistance and paint adhesion. The composition is a non-corrosive aqueous solution including water, a polymeric compound, an additive, and dispersed silica. In a preferred embodiment, the polymeric compound may be a polymer having a plurality of carboxylic functional groups and a plurality of hydroxyl groups. The polymeric compound may be a bifunctional copolymer or the reaction product of a first polymer having a plurality of carboxylic functional groups (e.g., polyacrylic acid or polymethylvinylmaleic anhydride), and a second polymer having a plurality of hydroxyl groups (e.g., polyvinyl alcohol). The additive is selected from at least one of: (i) an acid of a group IV-B element and a weak base, and (ii) an ammonium salt of a group IV-B compound such as ammonium zirconium carbonate. An exemplary acid of a group IV-B element is fluotitanic acid and an exemplary weak base is ammonium hydroxide. Dispersed silica is added, and any attack of the silica is minimized. The method for improving corrosion resistance and paint adhesion of a metal surface includes contacting the metal surface with a composition as described above and drying the composition in place. Prior to contacting the metal surface with such a composition, the metal surface may be cleaned and rinsed.

Abstract: At the transmitter side, carrier waves are modulated according to an input signal for producing relevant signal points in a signal space diagram. The input signal is divided into, two, first and second, data streams. The signal points are divided into signal point groups to which data of the first data stream are assigned. Also, data of the second data stream are assigned to the signal points of each signal point group. A difference in the transmission error rate between first and second data streams is developed by shifting the signal points to other positions in the space diagram expressed at least in the polar coordinate system. At the receiver side, the first and/or second data streams can be reconstructed from a received signal. In TV broadcast service, a TV signal is divided by a transmitter into, low and high, frequency band components which are designated as a first and a second data streams respectively. Upon receiving the TV signal, a receiver can reproduce only the low frequency band component or both the low and high frequency band components, depending on its capability. Furthermore, a communication system based on an OFDM system is utilized for data transmission of a plurality of subchannels, wherein the subchannels are differentiated by changing the length of a guard time slot or a carrier wave interval of a symbol transmission time slot, or changing the transmission electric power of the carrier.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for selectively electroplating apertured products. The products are masked in accordance with the intended plating and subsequently exposed to an electrolyte in order to electroplate the products. For masking purposes a fully closed photoresist layer is electrophoretically applied to the products, and after drying of the photoresist layer, the products are covered with a photomask in accordance with the locations to be plated, after which exposure takes place. Then the photoresist layer is partially removed, whilst the remaining part of the photoresist layer remains behind on the products, to serve as a mask for the metal products upon electroplating.

Abstract: This invention relates to a sclera plug consisting of a lactocopolymer, a sclera plug containing a drug and designed so as to release the drug gradually into a vitreous body, and a sclera plug used to cure or prevent a retinal disease by utilizing the sustained release action of the drug and promote the healing of a vitreous body after a surgical operation thereon. The sclera plug according to the present invention closes effectively an opening made during a surgical operation on a vitreous body, and need not be removed after the surgical operation. When this sclera plug is used, a drug can be released gradually for a long period of time into intraocular tissues into which the permeating of a drug is otherwise very difficult, so that the administration of a drug can be carried out safely and effectively. Moreover, a simple clinically applicable administration method can be found by utilizing a sclera cut made during a surgical operation on a vitreous body. <IMAGE>
