Patent EP-0448187-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FRICKE JOERG
IPC: G09B21/00
Filed: 1991-03-12
Abstract: The representation of graphic information requires a large number of indicating elements. The invention relates to a device whose indicating surface incorporates indicating elements which are hydraulically driven by electroviscous fluid (EVF) and are electrically controlled. 
<??>The indicating surface used is a panel (1) of electrically nonconducting material with a membrane (6) mounted on its upper side. Each indicating element consists of a channel filled with EVF (5) and the piece of membrane terminating it. The channel is constructed as a valve or peristaltic pump as a result of the insertion of electrodes (2). The deformation of the membrane (6) by the adjustable fluid pressure represents the directly or indirectly tactile information. Each indicating element can be set individually by appropriate control via manifolds (3, 4). The point of application of a finger can be determined and interpreted as input by evaluating signals which are capacitively coupled from the indicating surface to the body of the user.

Abstract: A method for more accurately measuring small changes in flowrate, and measuring low flowrates, of a well fluid in a pipe, adapted to be disposed in a borehole, includes inserting a choke in a constricted section of the pipe and placing a differential pressure gauge across the constricted section so as to measure the pressure of the fluid in the constricted section. The presence of the centerbody in the constricted section of the pipe decreases the pressure of the fluid in an annulus region around the choke and converts an otherwise small well fluid pressure change in the constricted section into a large pressure change in the annulus region, the large pressure change being easily measurable by the differential pressure gauge.

Abstract: A device for recuperating used batteries has a receiving compartment (1) comprising a left sub-compartment (1a) with a baseplate (7) with inset contacts for receiving cylindrical batteries and a right sub-compartment (1b) for receiving right parallelepipedal batteries. In order to check whether an inserted object is a battery, the receiving compartment (1) is closed by a slide (not shown) and locked by a bolt (10), and a mounting (15) is lowered until contact points on a pair of stamps (20a, 20b or 21a, 21b) or a stamp (22a, 22b or 22c) on the mounting touch one of the contacts inset into the base plate (7) of the receiving compartment (1). A test is then carried out to ascertain whether a voltage of at least 20 mV exists between the contact points. If not, the object is subjected to a surge lasting approximately 1 second and a maximum voltage, usually 14 V, and the voltage test is repeated. The base plate (7) is then retracted and, if the results of two voltage tests are negative, the object falls into a return chute, otherwise it falls into a collecting container. The slide is then unlocked.

Abstract: A photographic film cassette has photographic film (3) wound on a spool core (4a) in a roll and contained in a cassette shell (2). Rotation of a spool in the unwinding direction causes a leader (3b) to advance through a passageway and exit from a passage mouth. The passageway has a pair of inside faces (6a,6b) as spaced. The first inside face (6b) confronts the emulsion surface (3c) of the photographic film, and the second inside face confronts its back surface. A separator claw (9) is formed adjacent to the first inside face, and separates the leader from the roll. The separator claw is formed to have such a small degree of projecting, that the photographic film is prevented from being rubbed and scratched, even when the diameter of the roll is minimized to stretch the photographic film as advanced. In a preferred embodiment, a camera (23) for use with such a leader-advancing cassette (1) has a receiving port (13a), which is open to the inside of a cassette receiving chamber (10), and receives the photographic film (3) as exited from the cassette. A front wall (13b) of the receiving port is so formed as to prevent the photographic film from being rubbed and scratched by the first inside face of the cassette.

Abstract: A yeast cell, preferably  Saccharomyces cerevisiae , which contains a functional stable recombinant DNA sequence that does not allow for the encoding of a negative regulator of phospholipid biosynthesis therein and which has multiple copies of an  INO1  gene. In a preferred embodiment, the recombinant DNA sequence is an OPI1 gene deletion which results in the deregulation of inositol or inositol-containing metabolites such as inositol-1-phosphate synthase. Moreover, there is a method for obtaining inositol, inositol-containing metabolites or phospholipids such as myo-inositol or inositol-1-phosphate. The method comprises the steps of genetically engineering a stable yeast cell, preferably  Saccharomyces cerevisiae , to continually produce inositol, inositol-containing metabolites or phospholipids. Additionally, there is the step of then generating the inositol, inositol-containing metabolites or phospholipids. In a preferred embodiment, the genetically engineering step includes the step of altering the negative regulatory step involved in phospholipid biosynthesis to overproduce inositol, inositol-containing metabolites or phospholipids such as myo-inositol.

Abstract: A coupling disc (20) (i.e. the armature or rotor) of an electromagnetic coupling is made by using a punch and die to emboss a plurality of radially spaced rows of angularly spaced grooves (32) in the non-working face (24) of the disc (20) and to cause a plurality of radially spaced rows of angularly spaced projections (41) to be displaced from the working face (25) of the disc (20).

To establish even better flux barriers, angularly spaced slots (50) of the narrow radial width may be formed through the disc (20) by piercing the disc (20) from the working face (25) thereof and breaking through the thin webs (46) located between the sets of grooves (32,45).

Abstract: A method for performing concurrent spherical and cylindrical corrections to the corneal surface of the eye to reduce myopia and astigmatism. A laser beam irradiates the corneal surface via a variable diameter iris and a slot produced by a pair of translatable blades. The width of the slot and the diameter of the iris are varied as the laser is pulsed to produce a toric ablation of the corneal surface. Alternatively, the laser beam is passed through a succession of apertures in a tilted variable aperture element to produce toric ablation. The total number of laser pulses required to effect both types of correction is equal to the number required for the spherical correction alone, reducing the laser power and the procedure time. The toric ablation produces no steep end walls as with standard cylindrical ablation procedures, thereby eliminating hyperopic shift and minimizing flattening along the ablated cylinder axis.
