Abstract: A large round baler is equipped with a net wrapping mechanism for wrapping a bale with net material that is wider that the width of the baling chamber so that the net material extends over the opposite ends of the bale. The baler has a baling chamber defined in part by a plurality of bale-forming belts mounted in side-by-side relationship on a plurality of belt support rolls extending between opposite sidewalls of the baling chamber. The net material is fed beneath the discharge gate of the baler to a crop inlet located between a lower front belt support roll carried by the discharge gate, the net being carried into the baling chamber by a fore-and-aft runs of the belts that extend between a lower rear and the lower front belt support roll, and carry the net along a guide surface defined by a plurality of channel members respectively located beneath the fore-and-aft runs of the belts. In order to ensure that the net material arrives at the baling chamber at width greater than that of the baling chamber, spiral rings are mounted at opposite ends of the lower rear belt support roll and spreader rings are mounted at the opposite ends of the lower front belt support rolls, the spiral rings being located outboard relative to the spreader rings, with a major portion of the spreader rings being located outboard of the opposite sidewalls of the baling chamber. In order to keep rogue or stray crop stems from interfering with the net material so as to prevent it from being spread to its full length and fed, shielding is provided inside the baling chamber at a location above the lower rear roll. Wrap around shields are provided to shield the spreader rings from crop that is delivered into the baling chamber and various other structures are provided for preventing the accumulation of rogue or stray crop in the vicinity of the spreader rings and other areas in the path of net travel.

Abstract: Devices and methods are provided using microfluidic devices for manipulating small volumes and determining a variety of chemical and physical events. The devices rely upon an opening to the atmosphere of a small volume in a zone, where a sample is placed in the zone where evaporation can occur. The zone is maintained in contact with a liquid medium that serves to replenish the liquid in the zone and maintain the composition of the mixture in the zone substantially constant. The diffusion of components in the zone is restricted during the course of the determination by the liquid flux into the zone.

Filed: 1999-09-03
Abstract: A fusion receptor composition which is effective to promote a cellular immune response to prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) in vivo when the fusion receptors is expressed by T lymphocytes has the structure: PSMA-scFv:  connector: cytoplasmic domain. The PSMA-scFv in this structure is a single chain antibody cloned from the V region genes of a hybridoma specific for PSMA. The connector region is provided to give a spacing between the OSMA-scFv and the cytoplasmic domain, such that both can retain substantial function. A  suitable connector is the CD8 hinge, although other connectors of greater or lesser length might be used. The cytoplasmic domain is included to direct the function of the fusion receptor. One exemplary cytoplasmic domain which can be used in the fusion receptor of the invention is a T cell receptor -chain cytoplasmic domain. An expression vector encoding the fusion receptor is transduced into primary T lymphocytes obtained from an individual to be treated. The transduced lymphocytes are returned to the patient where cells expressing the fusion receptor secrete interleukin 2 and proliferate in response to PSMA-positive cells. The resulting cytotoxic lymphocytes specifically lyse cells expressing PSMA and thus can be used to target PSMA-positive tumor cells and neovasculature.

Title: Method for reducing ringing in nuclear magnetic resonance well logging instruments
Inventor: TAHERIAN REZA
IPC: G01V3/32
Filed: 2001-05-31
Abstract: A method for reducing ringing in nuclear magnetic resonance measurements is disclosed. The method includes inducing a static magnetic field in a sensitive volume to orient nuclear magnetic spins of nuclei in the sensitive volume. The nuclear spins are reoriented by a first selected angle. An amplitude of the static magnetic field is then adjusted to cause a first selected phase shift in a spin echo signal measured subsequently to the reorienting by the first angle. The spins are then reoriented by a second selected angle, and a first spin echo signal is detected. After a selected wait time, reorienting by the first selected angle is repeated. Adjusting the amplitude of the static magnetic field is then repeated to cause a second selected phase shift in a subsequently measured spin echo. The first and second selected phase shifts have a difference between them of an odd numbered multiple of 180 degrees. Reorienting by the second selected and detecting a second spin echo signal are then repeated. Finally, a difference between the first spin echo signal and the second spin echo signal is determined. In one embodiment, the measuring of the first and second spin echoes is repeated a selected number of times, and the difference is calculated between time corresponding ones of the first and second spin echoes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil dans lequel l'eau et le solvant sont contenus dans un même réservoir (1). Ces deux liquides peuvent être divisés en diverses couches grâce à leur différence de poids spécifique. Le réservoir contient au moins un tuyau qui fonctionne comme élément immergé (P) et qui est doté de plusieurs ouvertures d'aspiration (11, 11') uniformément espacées sur toute sa longueur.

Abstract: A rotary feeder module for feeding sheet inserts and having a thickness detector for measuring the thickness of moving inserts. The feeder includes a gripper drum disc for transporting the inserts and a detector caliper assembly having a follower roller that rides upon and along the periphery of upon moving inserts transported upon the periphery of the gripper drum disc. The feeder also includes a mechanism for sensing the field of a magnet to provide a measure of relative displacement between the sensor and the magnet and thereby a measure of the radius of the periphery from an axis of rotation. The sensory mechanism provides reference signals corresponding to zero thickness of the inserts in the absence of inserts upon the gripper drum disc. The sensory mechanism also provides thickness signals corresponding to the thickness of the inserts in reference to the reference signals when the inserts are transported upon the gripper drum disc interposed between the follower roller and the periphery.
