Patent GB-8717493-D0 (GB)
Title: Coin discriminator
IPC: G07D5/08
Filed: 1987-07-23
Abstract: A coin (5) under test is subjected to the changing magnetic field produced by pulsing of a test coil (1), and the decay of the resulting eddy currents in the coin is monitored by monitoring the coil voltage induced by the eddy currents. The times T1 and T2 at which the coil voltage falls through voltage levels V1 and V2 is measured by comparators (COMP 1, COMP 2) and a microcomputer (7), and those times are compared by microcomputer (7) with stored reference values to help determine the coin type.
Patent GB-8811919-D0 (GB)
Title: Biological sensors
IPC: G01N21/75
Filed: 1988-05-20
Abstract: A surface plasmon resonance (SPR) sensor in which a membrane is used to enable the sensitive material to be readily changed to enable tests to be carried out on a sequential basis simply by moving or changing the membrane. In one embodiment, the membrane takes the form of a continuous film (24) which lies against and is moveable across by means not shown, a transparent plate (17) which forms part of the SPR sensor. The film (24) comprises a layer (31) of flexible transparent material to which is applied a thin layer (32) of metal such as silver. Applied to layer (32) is a layer (33) of sensitive material. The final layer (34) is a preformed layer of hydrophyllic plastics material which incorporates troughs (37) and passageways (35,38) for the transfer of sample across the sensitive layer. Light from a laser (not shown) is subject to total internal reflection at the interface between the transparent layer (31) and metal layer (32), and the reflected light is collected by a light detector (not shown). Provided conditions are correct, surface plasmon resonance occurs at the area of total internal reflection, the characteristics of which resonance are sensitively dependent upon the reaction between the sample and the sensitive layer.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB90/00837 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 27, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 27, 1992 PCT Filed May 30, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/15092 PCT Pub. Date Dec. 13, 1990.This invention relates to the production of hydroxy-terminated polymers in the 2,000-20,000 MW range suitable for use as prepolymers in curing reactions with isocyanates to produce elastomers. The process involves the continuous addition over periods of 25-50 hours of an oxirane (monoepoxide) or a mixture of an oxirane and an oxetane to a reaction mixture, consisting of stoichiometric excesses of oxonium ion-forming catalyst such as BF3-etherate and a diol initiator dissolved in an inert solvent. Under these conditions, chain extension of the diol occurs and the formation of cyclic oligomers and other impurities is minimised. The mole ratio of the initiator to catalyst is maintained at above 10:1 to suppress the formation of cationic terminal species on the growing polymer chain.

Abstract: The actuating device has a tilt button (4) which is mounted on a holder (3) and is connected to the valve body (8) of a discharge valve, via a two-armed lever (6), such that, when the tilt button (4) is pivoted, the valve body (8) can be lifted in order to open the discharge valve. The lever (6) is mounted in a frame (7), an engagement part of the lever (6) rolling, without sliding, on a rolling-contact curve (7b) of the frame (7) when the tilt button (4) is actuated. In this arrangement, the turning point of the lever (6) is displaced such that the comparatively large initial force reduction decreases continuously and the path reduction increases. As a result, the discharge valve can be opened by a small amount of force, with a relatively small button displacement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A new process of synthesis of optically active  alpha -amino acids is described through nitrosation in a non-aqueous, aprotic system, of the corresponding N-carbamyl derivatives followed by decomposition of the thus obtained N-nitroso derivatives in aqueous acidic medium. The process, which is of a general applicability, leads to a remarkable increase in the reaction yields, due to the suppression of the main side reaction leading to the corresponding  alpha -hydroxy-acid. Some N-nitroso intermediates, which can be recovered from the process of the invention, are also described.

IPC: A23L1/00
Filed: 1989-07-27
Abstract: Piston units with rolling membrane are used for the handling of liquid products which require good hygiene, e.g. foodstuffs such as milk products. In a piston unit used as a pressure-compensating device pressure variations in a product line are dampened in that the side of the piston (6) remote from the product line (5) is subjected to a variable air pressure. Rolling membranes (7,8) are positioned on both sides of the piston and enclose between them a chamber (13) which is connected to a source of vacuum (14) so as to secure contact of the membranes with the piston. The vacuum is distributed in the chamber (13) with the help of a vacuum line (15) with enlarged outlet area, and is distributed over the end faces of the piston (6) by means of a network of ducts (19,20) in the piston.

Abstract: A sheet-metal centrifugal pump casing comprising a casing shell (1) having a suction port (3) and being formed of a steel plate by means of deep drawing using a press, and having a suction flange (10) firmly attached to the suction port of the casing shell is disclosed. The centrifugal pump casing further comprises a partition body (20) firmly attached to the inner surface of the casing shell for partitioning a space within the casing shell into a suction chamber (C) and a pressure chamber (B), and a diffuser (20b) which is integrally extended from the suction side end portion of the partition body and which tapers off toward peripheral edge of said suction port so that an axial gap (21) is formed between the end edge of the diffuser and the peripheral edge of said suction port. Since the axial gap (21) is formed between the end edge of the diffuser and the peripheral edge of the suction port, even in the case of the suction flange (10) is acted upon by an external force such as by piping, a deformation does not affect the partition body (20), thus, problems such as contact between the partition body and the impeller (5) may be completely avoided.
