Abstract: The unit consists of a combustion engine with gearbox and hydrodynamic retarder (2) with rotor (2.1) and stator (2.3). The rotor of the retarder is mounted on the engine shafts or on a spigot at the end of the shaft. The stator (2.2) of the retarder is, seen in the axial direction, mounted between the crankcase (1.3) of the engine and the rotor (2.1). The rotor is overhung at the end of the shaft. The stator is rigidly connected to the engine esp. to the crankcase so that the connection can take up any torque exerted by the retarder.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods are disclosed for the production of digitized stereoscopic polarizing images. The transfer of dichroic inks into stretched and oriented substrates to form stereoscopic polarizing images and the like can be improved by the use of coatings that enhance imbibition of the ink into the substrate. The coatings serve to hold the ink in situ for a sufficient period of time to permit absorption of the dye and transfer of rich colors while minimizing the problems of smearing and/or runoff of unabsorbed ink. The present invention is particularly useful in the adaptation of ink jet printing techniques to the formation of stereoscopic polarizing images.

Abstract: Disclosed are human mitogen-activated (MAP) kinase kinase isoforms (MKKs). MKKs mediate unique signal transduction pathways that activate human MAP kinases p38 and JNK, which result in activation of other factors, including activating transcription factor-2 (ATF2) and c-Jun. The pathways are activated by a number of factors, including cytokines and environmental stress. Methods are provided for identifying reagents that modulate MKK function or activity and for the use of such reagents in the treatment of MKK-mediated disorders.

Title: Stackable data substrate arrangement
Inventor: EMBO GEORGES
IPC: G06K19/077
Filed: 1996-03-29
Granted: 1998-08-26
Abstract: The proposal is for a stackable data substrate arrangement with at least one external connection running around the edge surfaces of the substrate component of the data substrate arrangement. In the substrate component there are two mutually parallel slots which extend from the edge surface into the substrate component to about the same extent as the external connection fitted between them so that a contact spike bendable perpendicularly to the main surfaces of the substrate component is formed through the region between the slots. This ensures tolerance compensation if several data substrate arrangements are stacked on one another. An electromagnetic screen between the stacked data substrate arrangements is also proposed.

Abstract: The invention is concerned with systems for transferring value between electronic purses, usually in the form of IC or "Smart" cards, via the intermediary of an interface device. In order to control the flow of value between purses a hierarchical class structure is proposed. This is achieved by assigning to each purse a class which controls the conditions under which value may be transferred to and from (mainly from) a purse. Thus each purse stores in memory a representation of its own class, together with a list of those classes to which the purse can transfer value.

Abstract: An efficient digital waveguide synthesizer is disclosed for simulating the tones produced by a non-linearly excited vibrational element coupled to a resonator, such as in a piano. In a preferred embodiment, the synthesizer creates an excitation pulse from a table containing the impulse response of a piano soundboard and enclosure. Alternatively, this excitation pulse can be synthesized by filtering white noise. The excitation pulse is fed into a filter that simulates the collision of the piano hammer and string. Because the hammer-string interaction is nonlinear, the characteristics of this filter vary with the amplitude of the tone produced. The filtered excitation pulse is then fed into a filtered delay line loop which models the vibration of a piano string. Because the excitation pulse already contains the effects of the resonator, the tone produced by the delay line loop does not require additional filtering in order to model the resonator.

Ils sont mobiles sur une trajectoire commune. Chaque chaîne (15, 16) possède un entraînement (19, 20) distinct. Avant que le premier doigt d'entraînement (27, 28) ou bras support (29, 30) d'une chaîne (15, 16) n'atteigne la station d'alimentation (36), la chaîne en question (15, 16) est accélérée et ralentie ou vice versa de telle façon que le doigt d'entraînement (27, 28) de l'autre chaîne (16, 15) suive à une distance correspondant à l'intervalle sélectionné (31). On obtient ainsi une construction plus simple et un fonctionnement plus sûr.

Abstract: Characterization of a converter to voltage or current (20), which is connected to a group of capacitors (32) includes arranging converter to receive difference in capacitance, given by output voltage (Vo) which is a function of polarisation signal, which is made to vary while maintaining constant difference in capacitance, and measuring output voltage response. The capacitor assembly is arranged to supply capacitance difference (C1-C2) and the converter receives both the capacitive difference and an electrical polarisation signal (Vb). Its output signal (Vo) is a function of both the capacitive difference and the polarisation signal. The characterization procedure determines the converter characteristic, that is the relationship between the output of the converter and the input capacity difference and polarisation signal. This is achieved by a series of steps during which the polarisation signal is varied, while the capacity difference is varied.

Abstract: The apparatus of the invention consists of an ordinary laser scanner (such as for example those used for the reading of optical codes) in which the data obtained from the scanning are processed, for detecting the presence and the position, on a supply plane, of objects having heights even very different among themselves. The detection of the presence of an object, and its position, is carried out taking advantage of the luminous contrast between the surface of the same object and the bearing surface of the supply plane. The detection of the presence and the position of the object can be combined with the reading of an optical code positioned on the object. Furthermore, the use of a modulated light laser scanner, allows the implementation of the above mentioned operations with the measurement of the distance of the object from the same scanner, in this way calculating the overall encumbrance of the same object. This allows the optimization of distribution process and management of warehouses in the handling plants for the distribution and sorting of objects. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The Application describes a method and devices for manufacturing a broadband cholesteric polarizer having a well-defined bandwidth and edge position. To this end, a liquid-crystalline cholesterically ordered layer comprising reactive chiral monomers and reactive nematogenic monomers having a different reactivity is polymerized by exposure to radiation. The invention is characterized in that the intensity of the radiation is increased substantially, preferably by a factor of 10 or more, when a desired edge position of the band is reached. As a result, the bandwidth and edge position of the reflection band reached at that moment are frozen as it were. A monochromatic sensor can be used to determine whether said edge position has been reached, the wavelength used by the sensor corresponding to the wavelength of the desired edge position of the band. Broadband, cholesteric polarizers having a well-defined bandwidth and edge position can very advantageously be used in a display.

Abstract: The present invention provides for techniques for transporting materials using electrokinetic forces through the channels of a microfluidic system. The subject materials are transported in regions of high ionic concentration, next to spacer material regions of high ionic concentration, which are separated by spacer material regions of low ionic concentration. Such arrangements allow the materials to remain localized for the transport transit time to avoid mixing of the materials. Using these techniques, an electropipettor which is compatible with the microfluidic system is created so that materials can be easily introduced into the microfluidic system. The present invention also compensates for electrophoretic bias as materials are transported through the channels of the microfluidic system by splitting a channel into portions with positive and negative surface charges and a third electrode between the two portions, or by diffusion of the electrophoresing materials after transport along a channel. <IMAGE>
