Abstract: A first lens group (G1) fixed with respect to the image plane includes a lens (11) having a negative refractive power, a lens (12) having a positive refractive power and a lens (13) having a positive refractive power. A second lens group (G2) has a negative refractive power as a whole, and causes a zooming action when moved along the optical axis. An aperture stop is fixed with respect to the image plane. A third lens group (G3) includes a lens (31) having a negative refractive power and a lens (32) having a positive refractive power, has a positive or negative refractive power as a whole, and is fixed with respect to the direction of the optical axis when zooming and when focusing. A fourth lens group (G4) has a positive refractive power as a whole, and moves along the optical axis such that the image plane, which is displaced by a movement of the second lens group (G2) along the optical axis and by a movement of the object, is maintained at a constant position with respect to a reference plane. Thus, it is possible to realize a compact and high-image quality small zoom lens that is suitable for three-CCDs.

Title: Method and device for detecting a rotational speed, especially the rotational speed of the wheel of a vehicle
Inventor: GOEBEL EUGEN
IPC: G01P3/489
Filed: 2004-03-11
Abstract: The wheel rotation counter (10) has a wheel rotation sensor (12) with two signal paths (18,20). The first is for a high-level current e.g. 14Ma. The second is for a low-level current e.g. 7Ma. The sensor output signal passes through wires (14) to a signal processing circuit (16).  A voltage source (22) is connected to an integrated circuit (30), connected to a main processor (32) which monitors the signal amplitude level. The signal from the wheels passes through low-pass filters (24,26) to an evaluation unit (28) and an analog/digital converter (36). The main processor has a timer (34) for measuring time intervals for measuring cycles.

Abstract: CD22 diabodies, in which heavy-chain and light-chain variable regions are linked by a
5-mer linker, were produced based on known sequence information for two types of anti-CD22
antibodies. The two diabodies produced were analyzed for their activity of binding to
lymphoma cells and inducing lymphoma cell death (apoptosis). As a result, both diabodies
were revealed to bind to the B-lymphoma cell line, "Raji", and to have apoptosis-inducing
activity towards Raji cells as well as towards another B-lymphoma cell line: Daudi cells. These
results show that minibodies of antibodies that recognize CD22 can be used as
apoptosis-inducing agents for tumor cells such as lymphoma cells.

IPC: H01L21/68

Abstract: The aim of the invention is to create a simple monitoring or testing method for monitoring a reduction in thickness as material is removed from a bonded semiconductor wafer pair, which prevents failure effects as material is removed from wafers (polishing, grinding or lapping). In addition, the costs of the material removal process should be reduced by minimizing the complexity of monitoring, as well as by reducing the amount of resulting refuse. To this end, the invention provides a test structure (4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9) comprised of a systematic row of a number of different depth trenches that are made in the (active) wafer (2). A thickness (h6; h7) of the active wafer (2) desired during material removal, particularly during a polishing, corresponds to the depth (t6; t7) of a reference trench (6; 7) of the trenches of the test structure, said reference trench (6) being surrounded by flatter and deeper trenches (5, 7). The active wafer (2), via the side (2a) on which the test structure was provided, is bonded to the second wafer of the semiconductor wafer pair provided as a supporting wafer (1). A removal of material, particularly a polishing, is effected on the rear (2b) of the active wafer (2) until the reference trench (6) is exposed. The result is visually observed (30) in order to monitor the reduction in thickness as material is removed from the first wafer (2).

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of operating a strip casting machine for producing a metal strip, during which molten metal is continuously poured between two casting rolls ( 1, 2 ) that form a casting gap. Lateral seals ( 10 ) having sealing plates ( 11 ) are provided for laterally delimiting the casting gap, whereby the sealing plates ( 11 ) are placed or pressed with a preset placement or pressing force, whose magnitude can be set, against the end surfaces of the casting rolls ( 1, 2 ). The sealing plates ( 11 ) are, in repeatable stop-and-go steps, placed with a preset force and time against the end surfaces of the casting rolls ( 1, 2 ) and are held in the placing position for a preset time. This enables a distinct reduction in the wear of the sealing plates and of the casting roll end surfaces.

Abstract: The invention relates to a multifuncional modular energy transformation system which is particularly suitable for levitation railway transport, which consumes much less energy than hitherto-known systems since levitation is achieved using a magnetic generating system having a constant force ans stable equilibrium, and which is energetically self-sufficient by transforming H 2 O into hydrogen and oxygen by means of solar energy captured by the system. The inventive system is of minimal weight and is not harmful to the environment. The invention comprises magnetic assemblies which are disposed on non-ferromagnetic supports that are preferably made from aluminium and encapsulated in resin and magnets which are disposed longitudinally in a continuous manner. In this way, the system enables the non-punctiform application of constant distributed forces, unlike hitherto-known systems in which the electrical impulses necessary to generate the punctiform magnetic field required for levitation and movement are so intense and of such force as to give rise to significant problems in terms of construction, control and maintenance that do not arise with the inventive system.

Abstract: A wave emitting element emits a light beam to the predetermined position on the outer surface of the cylinder member of the liquid syringe at the predetermined angle, and the light beam is detected at the predetermined position on the outer surface of the cylinder member by a wave detecting element. When the light beam is detected, occurrence of abnormality is determined. Since the position on the cylinder member from which the light beam is directed when the liquid fills the cylinder member is different from that when air is trapped into or fills the cylinder member due to a change in refractive index, the occurrence of abnormality is determined and the check alarm is output when air is trapped into or fills the cylinder member. Thus, a chemical liquid injector which can detect and alarm air, if injected, when the liquid is injected into the patient from the liquid syringe through the extension tube is provided.

Abstract: The method involves providing an image of a road or drive surface and the demarcation of the lanes. Several search windows are placed in the image and/or outside the image with a lane prediction. The course a lane takes is determined by detecting respective positions of the lane demarcations in at least some of the search windows in the image. A quality indication is obtained from the number of search windows in which the lane demarcation is detected. Also taken into account in determining the indication of quality is how many search windows lie at least partly in the image. Independent claims also cover an apparatus for carrying out the method.
