Title: A ramp construction and elements therefor
Inventor: FREDERIKSEN OLE
IPC: B65G69/28
Filed: 2000-07-03
Abstract: For facilitating the passage of wheelchair users over door thresholds it is known to lay out ramp elements across the threshold, this however being an expensive solution even implying that the door cannot be closed. The invention provides for a ramp set suited to be laid out at both sides of the threshold so as to leave the top side thereof uncovered, whereby the door can still be opened and closed. The ramp construction is modular based on the use of light, joinable plastic tile elements of ordinary shape and wedge shape, respectively, and this makes it possible to build up non-costly, tailored ramp constructions in more general, with an associated possibility of reusing the tile elements.

Abstract: A method of identifying transcription factors comprising providing cells with a nucleic acid sequence at least comprising a sequence CACCT (SEQ ID NO:1) as bait for the screening of a library encoding potential transcription factors and performing a specificity test to isolate said factors. Preferably, the bait comprises twice the CACCT (SEQ ID NO:1) sequence, more particularly the bait comprises one of the sequences CACCT-N-CACCT (a first SEQ ID NO:1 and a second SEQ ID NO:1 separated by N), CACCT-N-AGGTG (SEQ ID NO:1 and SEQ ID NO:3 separated by N), AGGTG-N-CACCT (SEQ ID NO:3 and SEQ ID NO:1 separated by N), or AGGTG-N-AGGTG (a first SEQ ID NO:3 and a second SEQ ID NO:3 separated by N), wherein N is a spacer sequence. The transcription factors identified using the methods of the invention include separated clusters of zinc fingers, such as, for example, a two-handed zinc finger transcription factor. Also, at least one such zinc finger transcription factor, denominated as SIP1, induces tumor metastasis by down regulation of the expression of E-cadherin.

Secondly, the first mineral fiber web is moved in the longitudinal direction of the web and folded transversely relative to the longitudinal direction and parallel with a transversal direction of the first mineral fiber web, so as to produce a second mineral fiber-web containing mineral fibers arranged generally perpendicular to the longitudinal and transversal directions. Thereupon, the folded mineral fiber web is cured for bonding the mineral fibers together so as to produce the mineral fiber-insulating web comprising a central body containing mineral fibers arranged generally perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the mineral fiber web. The method also optionally includes longitudinally compressing and/or transversally compressing the folded mineral fiber web. The folded mineral fiber web may additionally be combined with additional mineral fiber webs or coverings for producing a composite mineral fiber web product which is cured in a single curing process.

Title: Combination pacemaker and defibrillator
Inventor: LEVINE PAUL A
IPC: A61N1/39
Filed: 1994-03-23
Abstract: An ICD/pacemaker device provides a shocking pulse whenever it senses cardiac activity indicative ventricular fibrillation by standard means and a unique algorithm to respond to low amplitude ventricular fibrillation that would not be expected to be recognized/sensed by standard means. The ICD/pacemaker device further provides stimulation pulses on demand to a patient's heart whenever cardiac activity is not sensed and determines whether a given stimulation pulse has caused capture. If capture has not occurred, the energy of the stimulation pulse is increased by a predetermined amount and capture is retested. If the energy of the stimulation pulses increases up to a maximum value without causing capture, the generation of further stimulation pulses is stopped, and the ICD/pacemaker device presumes that low amplitude ventricular fibrillation is present. When fibrillation is sensed or presumed to be present, a shocking pulse is generated. In this manner, the ICD/pacemaker device responds to a low amplitude ventricular fibrillation that may not be sensed by the normal sensing circuits.

Filed: 1980-12-09
Abstract: Device intended to be displaced along track rails and comprising a frame (2) guided by the rail (1) provided with a grinding wheel (6) which grinds through its periphery. To uniformly distribute the wear resulting from contact with the rail on all its active surface, the grinding wheel (6) is driven, in addition to the continuous rotation supplied by a driving motor (7), in an alternating motion transverse to the track by means of an actuating mechanism. This actuating mechanism comprises a motor-gear assembly (13) driving an eccentric shaft (9) on the eccentric of which the movable support (8) is hinged. To avoid the formation of sinusoidal traces due to the grinding, the amplitude a of the reciprocal movement is related by the equation a SIMILAR l-f to the width l of the active surface of the grinding wheel and to the width f of the portion of the profile of the rail which is ground.
