Abstract: Die Uhr (11) besitzt ein in einem Gehäuse (13) untergebrachtes Quartzwerk. Die im Gehäuse (13) verbleibenden Hohlräume sind mit einer elektrisch isolierenden hydrophoben Flüssigkeit (29) gefüllt. In dieser befindet sich eine Gasblase (27), welche der Kompensation der unterschiedlichen Ausdehnungskoeffizienz zwischen Gehäuse (13) und Flüssigkeit (29) dient. Die Gasblase (27) zwischen dem Glas (21) und der Anzeigevorrichtung (23) ist gut sichtbar. An ihrer Lage kann ein Taucher feststellen, was oben und unten ist. Zur Herstellung der Uhr wird die bis auf Krone (19) und Welle fertig montierte Uhr in elektrisch isolierende hydrophobe Flüssigkeit getaucht. Hierauf wird der Druck in der Flüssigkeit reduziert, um im Uhrgehäuse (13) ein Vakuum zu erzeugen. Bei der nachfolgenden Druckreduktion fliesst Flüssigkeit in das Gehäuse. Die Uhr kann dann entnommen werden, worauf dann die als Zutrittsöffnung für die Flüssigkeit dienende Kronenöffnung durch Einsetzen der Welle mit der Krone verschlossen wird.

IPC: G10H1/12

Abstract: An efficient digital waveguide synthesizer is disclosed for simulating the tones produced by a non-linearly excited vibrational element coupled to a resonator, such as in a piano. In a preferred embodiment, the synthesizer creates an excitation pulse from a table containing the impulse response of a piano soundboard and enclosure. Alternatively, this excitation pulse can be synthesized by filtering white noise. The excitation pulse is fed into a filter that simulates the collision of the piano hammer and string. Because the hammer-string interaction is nonlinear, the characteristics of this filter vary with the amplitude of the tone produced. The filtered excitation pulse is then fed into a filtered delay line loop which models the vibration of a piano string. Because the excitation pulse already contains the effects of the resonator, the tone produced by the delay line loop does not require additional filtering in order to model the resonator.

Abstract: The lymphocyte ativation gene (LAG-3) is a member of the immunoglobulin superfamily that is selectively transcribed in human activated T and NK cells. Surface LAG-3 expression correlated with IFN-gamma but not IL-4, production in antigen-stimulated T-cells and it was up-regulated by IL-12 and is preferentially associated with CD4+ T-cells producing Th1-type cytokines. The presence of LAG-3 on the surface of Th1 lymphocytes is used as a marker to detect and identify Th1 lymphocytes and differentiate them from Th2 lymphocytes. Monoclonal antibodies to LAG-3 are used in methods of detecting and isolating Th1 cells as well as methods of diagnosing Th1-mediated disease. The present invention also relates to methods of treating infectious diseases, cancer, and disorders assocated with Th1/Th2 imbalance.

Abstract: The burner consists of a fuel injector (4) in the base of the combustion chamber (6), fed by an inlet tube (3), and an inner spiral (7) which provides primary air for the fuel combustion. The air feed is controlled by a regulator which operates as a function of the engine mode and is made in the form of a shutter (14), able to move axially between a position in which it covers the inner spiral in the engine's low speed mode and opens it to the maximum in the high speed mode. The shutter is mounted on elastic metal bellows (20, 21, 23) which connect the inlet tube (3) and injector (4) and ensure the continuity of the fuel circuit. At the same time the bellows control the movement of the shutter by their elastic deformation under the pressure of the fuel delivered by the inlet tube. The shutter is connected to the inlet tube by two coaxial bellows forming a chamber (22), and to the injector by one bellows element (23). The axial movement of the shutter is limited by stops (25, 26).
