Abstract: A silicon-enriched aluminide coating for a superalloy article has a composite microstructure including a plurality of bands of silicon rich phases (S1, S2, S3) and a plurality of bands of aluminum rich phases (A1, A2, A3), these bands being spaced apart through the thickness of the coating. The composite microstructure is created by depositing a slurry containing both silicon and aluminum in elemental or pre-alloyed form on the article and heating the coated article above the melting temperature of aluminum to cure the coating, the depositing and curing steps being repeated at least once before diffusion heat treating the resulting layers. Thereupon, all the above process steps are repeated at least once.

Abstract: A printing switching apparatus for a sheet-fed rotary press with a reversing mechanism includes a fixed gear (52), a rotary gear (54), a first inclined surface (54a), an engaging member (55), and an actuating unit (66). The fixed gear is fixed to a shaft (13a) of a cylinder. The rotary gear is coaxial with the fixed gear, coupled to be driven with a cylinder adjacent to the cylinder, and phase-adjustable with respect to the fixed gear in a circumferential direction. The first inclined surface is formed on the rotary gear. The engaging member is movable with respect to the fixed gear and has a second inclined surface (55a) pressed against the first inclined surface of the rotary gear. The actuating unit moves the engaging means in a direction to be separated from or come close to the fixed gear, presses or releases the first inclined surface of the rotary gear and the second inclined surface of the engaging member against or from each other, and connects or disconnects rotational transmission between the fixed gear and the rotary gear. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Novel polypeptides (NPs) are provided which are capable of protein C activation without significant fibrinogen clotting activity, and vice versa. NPs having enhanced protein C activating properties in relation to fibrinogen clotting are useful in particular as anticoagulants and in screening for substances that agonize or antagonize this property and in diagnostic procedures to determine the status of patients' activated protein C-mediated anticoagulant pathway. Procoagulant NPs are useful to promote clotting in the course of therapy of solid tumors, as an impregnate for bandages, or in diagnostic assays. The NPs are produced in recombinant cell culture or by in vitro methods.

Date Jul. 27, 1995It is already known that heat insulating elements, e.g. in refrigerators, may be more efficient if they are sealingly encapsulated and subjected to a high vacuum. Based on theoretical considerations in connection with foam having small cells it has been relevant to use a vacuum of the magnitude of 0.001 mbar and hermetical sealing of the elements. According to the invention it has been found that practically well usable results are achievable at much higher pressures, viz. in a range about 1 mbar, which is much easier to produce. Consequently, a further simplification can be obtained by renouncing the hermetical sealing and relying on an only "almost tight" sealing, combined with the use of an operationally active vacuum pump provided in each apparatus unit. Such a pump can easily have a capacity sufficient to maintain the moderate vacuum in spite of inward leaking of air from outside and a possible internal gas generation; for the specific purpose an insulation foam of the open cell type has been found to be preferable.

Abstract: The body (4) of the hook (1) has a passage (6) for receiving a transverse bar, which passage terminates in an aperture (7) and extends throughout the length of the body. The hook (1) includes a curved strip portion (5) for retaining an osteosynthesis rod which is connected to the body (4) in a region of said aperture (7). The height of the aperture (7) exceeds the thickness of the bar. The strip portion (5) has a width substantially equal to the width of the body (4) and edge portions (9) of the passage (6) are so shaped as to define sliding ramps for the rod which are inclined toward the interior of the strip portion (5). The arrangement of the hook ensures a trapping of the rod which improves the safety of the device in use and reduces the overall size of the hook.
