Abstract: A speaker edge is made of a thermosetting composition consisting of a polyurethane prepolymer and an inactivated solid polyamine as a latent hardener. A gas is dispersed in the thermosetting composition, prior to feed into a mold, so that it can foam and solidify to give the speaker edge. In a method of making the speaker edge, the composition will be injected into a female mold segment heated below the critical thermosetting temperature, foaming the composition. Then placed in the female segment is a male segment heated above the critical temperature, causing the ingredients to react with each other to solidify in the mold. An apparatus for making the speaker edge from the composition has: a device for intake of a gas, another device for injecting the composition into the gas, another device for mechanically dispersing the gas throughout the composition, still another device for injection of this gas-containing composition into a female mold segment, a further device for placing a male segment in the female segment, and a still further device for solidifying the composition, while foaming it.

Abstract: Continuous web feed is provided by using an apparatus for unwinding a web on a continuous basis by means of an automatic web splicing apparatus. An arm supporting a web roll is rocked when unwinding of the web is switched between web rolls. When the web is switched from one of web rolls (roll A) to the other (roll B), the remaining core of the web roll is removed subsequent to switching. Then the web roll installation position is shifted to the side reverse to the front and back of the web being unwound from the other web roll (roll B). After that, a new web roll is mounted in position. When the web is switched from the other web roll (roll B) to the web roll (roll A), the remaining core of the web roll is removed subsequent to switching. The web roll installation position is arranged in such a way that a new web roll is then mounted on the same side as the front and back of the web being unwound from the web roll. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A transmission control system for a vehicle having an engine with an output shaft, a torque converter, a stepped automatic transmission mechanism, and a clutch for engaging and releasing a plurality of gear shafts and input/output shafts with each other so as to change a shift change ratio by operation of the clutch. The control system produces a shift signal output indicating a shift change ratio of the stepped automatic transmission mechanism, detects an input torque of the stepped automatic transmission, recognizes an actual mechanical shift start timing of the stepped automatic transmission mechanism and changes engaging pressure on the clutch in accordance with a manipulation variable. An input torque-manipulation variable relationship between the input torque and the manipulation variable for every shift change ratio indicated by every shift signal and every mode of shift change ratios is stored. A manipulation variable calculation is performed when the shift signal and the shift signal output changes and the actual mechanical shift start timing is recognized. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention discloses a method and an in-vivo assay system useful for the identification and testing of modulating agents as well as for the validation of therapies of neurodegenerative diseases associated with the formation of neurofibrillary tangles, in particular Alzheimer's disease. The present invention is based on the surprising finding that injection of beta-amyloid Abeta42 fibrils into brains of P301L mutant tau transgenic mice caused several-fold increases in the numbers and an accelerated production of neurofibrillary tangles in cell bodies predominantly within the amygdala. The induced neurofibrillary tangles occurred as early as 18 days after Abeta42 injections and displayed striking features of neurofibrillary tangles of several human neurodegenerative diseases, particularly Alzheimer's disease.
