Abstract: The assembly has a container for a gas e.g. oxygen, and an operating head with a valve unit. The unit, in the absence of any demand for gas, is positioned close to a valve seat to permit only a minimal flow of gas from the container past the seat. An actuator (38) moves the unit to permit greater flow of gas to an outlet for use and has a piston part movable in a chamber. A valve spring is located in a side of the piston part. The piston is movable in the chamber in one direction in response to an actuator spring acting on an opposite side of the piston part to move the unit away from the seat. The piston part moves in an opposite direction in response to a combination of gas pressure and the return spring.

Abstract: A method for the quantitative assay of n different analytes, where n is at least 2, is provided. The method consists of the following steps: (a) At least one labeled detector-binding partner is added to a test sample containing the analytes. This leads to the formation of detector-analyte complexes, each of which consists of one analyte molecule and one detector molecule. The number of detector binding partners x equals n−1. Each detector-binding partner binds to at least one analyte. At least one of the detector-binding partners can bind to at least two analytes. (b) The detector-analyte complexes formed in step (a) bind to capture-binding partners and form detector-analyte-capture complexes. The number of capture-binding partners y equals the number n of the analytes. Each capture-binding partner is specific for at least one detector-analyte complex. (c) The time-resolved formation of the detector-analyte-capture complexes is measured.

The actuator includes a stationary cylinder that contains a movable cylinder having multiple inner chambers separated by stationary inner pistons. The inner chambers are in fluid communication with extension and retraction ports provided in the stationary cylinder wall. Introduction of pressurized fluid into one port causes the fluid pressure to act on "n" piston surface(s) to retract the movable cylinder. Introduction of pressurized fluid into the other port causes the fluid pressure to act on "n+1" piston surfaces to provide an increased output force without increasing the diameters of the cylinders and without increasing the pressure of the fluid.

Abstract: Ground conductors 4g and 5g, a transmission-line conductor 4a and a coupling-line conductor 4k are formed on a dielectric substrate 3. A dielectric-filled waveguide includes a lower conductor plate 1, an upper conductor plate 2, a lower dielectric strip 6, and an upper dielectric strip 7, where the dielectric substrate 3 is sandwiched between the lower conductor plate 1 and the lower dielectric strip 6, and the upper conductor plate 2 and the upper conductor strip 7, so that a conductor part S that is part of the ground conductors of the dielectric substrate forms a shield area of the dielectric-filled waveguide. The coupling-line conductor 4k is coupled to a standing wave caused by the shield area, at a position where the electric-field intensity of the standing wave is high. Subsequently, a plane circuit can be provided, so as to be parallel to the direction in which an electromagnetic wave propagates through the three-dimensional waveguide. Further, the dielectric substrate can be easily machined and the characteristic of coupling between the plane circuit and the three-dimensional waveguide provided on the dielectric substrate is prevented from being affected by the precision of assembling the plane circuit and the three-dimensional waveguide so that a line-conversion characteristic according to predetermined design can be easily obtained. <IMAGE>
