Abstract: The invention is a composite masonry block having a front surface and a back surface which are adjoined by first and second side surfaces, as well as a top surface and a bottom surface. Each of the side surfaces has an inset extending from the block top surface to the block bottom surface. The block top surface has one or more protrusions positioned adjacent the first and second insets on the block top surface. The block also has a protrusion which has an angled side wall, the angle being at least about 20° from vertical. The protrusion is positioned on the block so that it will mate with any opening of an adjacently positioned course. In use, the blocks may be stacked to provide an interlocking structure wherein the protrusions of one block interfit or mate within the insets of another block.

Abstract: A method for aiding in the diagnosis of, and monitoring the progression or course of, colon cancer in a patient by measuring the amount of NCA 50/90 in a blood sample, e.g., serum sample, obtained from the patient. Measurement in a single sample of an amount of NCA 50/90 significantly higher than the mean amount of NCA 50/90 in the normal population is an indication of colon cancer in a symptomatic patient. The course of colon cancer can also be monitored by performing a series of specific immunoassays over time to determine changes in the level of NCA 50/90 in blood samples. Increases in blood NCA 50/90 levels over time are indicative of a deteriorating condition whereas decreasing levels of blood NCA 50/90 over time indicate an improving condition.

Abstract: An armoured and bulletproof glass (glazing), designed for motor vehicles and consisting of several sheets of silicate glass (16, 17, 18 and 19), these being combined together and separated by thermoplastic interlayers (20, 21 and 22), includes a sheet of silicate glass (16) having a high absorptivity in the spectral band lying between 780 and 1200 nm. This sheet of silicate glass (16), or one of the other sheets which make up the armoured glass (17, 18 and 19), is also provided on one of its faces with a semireflective surface coating (23) having a high reflectivity for light rays whose wavelength lies between 780 and 1200 nm. The armoured glass thus possesses overall a transparency of less than 15% and, preferably, less than 10%, within the spectral band mentioned hereinabove. This type of armoured and structured glass offers a high degree of security in the case of night driving, since they also prove to be opaque for night vision equipment. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A DC-coupled active pull-down ECL circuit ("LS-APD") has a pull-down drive that self adjusts to lead conditions. A current source (Q3) sinks emitter current from first (Q1) and second (Q2) bipolar transistors. The input signal (IN) is coupled to the base of the first transistor, whose collector signal is coupled to the base of a pull-up transistor (Qpu) whose emitter is the LS-APD output voltage node (OUT). The pull-up transistor is coupled between the upper rail (Vcc) and the second transistor's collector load resistor (R2). A pull-down transistor (Qpd) has its base coupled to the second transistor's collector, its collector coupled to the LS-APD output node, and its emitter coupled to a node receiving a regulated (Vreg) voltage. As load capacitance increases, the output voltage takes longer to drop sufficiently to turn off the pull-down transistor.

Date Mar. 9, 1995In a metallic pipeline (1) disposed in the ground, alternating voltages may be induced from adjacent transmission lines and cause corrosion. To reduce the risk of corrosion, an alternating current (i1) is caused by means of a compensating device (PD) to flow through the line and to cause a voltage drop which counteracts the induced voltages. A measuring conductor (2) provides a signal (us) which is a measure of the induced voltage. This signal controls the amplitude and phase position of an alternating voltage (u1) which is generated by an a.c. source which is connected to feed points (A, B) on the line and which causes an alternating current (i1)) to flow through the line.

Abstract: In order to control the operating voltage of a fan in electrical equipment, the temperature of an output diode (D) of an output circuit of the power supply of the electrical equipment is monitored. The operating voltage of the fan is controlled as a function of the component temperature of this physical element such that up to a limit temperature, which is in the region of the maximum permissible component temperature of a physical element which absolutely becomes the hottest, the operating voltage of the fan is regulated at a constant, minimum level. The operating voltage is then regulated to rise continuously and rapidly up to a maximum operating voltage at which, although the component temperature of the physical element which absolutely becomes the hottest is still above the limit temperature, it is below the maximum permissible component temperature of this physical element, however.

Date Dec. 5, 1996A syringe for injection of doses of a medicine from an exchangeable cartridge has a housing comprising a cartridge holder and a dosing mechanism by which a dose is set and injected by successively advancing a piston rod to press a piston into the cartridge. The dosing mechanism comprises a threaded spindle and a nut member cooperating with the spindle. A dose is set by relative rotation of the spindle and nut member whereby the nut member is moved along the spindle. The position of the nut member on the spindle defines how far the piston rod is advanced. The spindle and the nut are locked against relative rotation when the dosing mechanism is not operated to set a dose. Access to the cartridge holder is obtained by opening a lid connected to the housing and coupled to the dosing mechanism in such a way that the locking of the nut element in its position on the spindle is released when the lid is opened, and the opening movement of the lid is transmitted to a piston rod retraction mechanism.
