Filed: 1987-12-15
Abstract: In an arc tube (40) of a high-pressure discharge lamp, there is provided an inlead member (46) disposed in an end aperture (44) of the arc tube. A coiled wire (60) is disposed about the inlead member forming a gasket between the inlead member and the arc tube at the arc tube end aperture. A sealing glass (56) is provided for sealing between the inlead member and the arc tube end wall. The sealing glass is blocked by the coiled wire so that the sealing glass is not exposed to the constituents within the arc tube, whereby deleterious chemical reactions between the contituents of the arc tube fill and the sealing glass are avoided. In some embodiments, the coil wire also protects the inlead from chemical attack by the fill constituents.

Abstract: A method of measuring the total concentration of odors of an article such as foodstuff, fruits and beverages as an indication of their specific quality such as freshness and maturity. An odorimetric device includes a non-selective odor detector disposed within an odorimetric chamber and a heater means for heating the odor detector to a predetermined operating temperature. The total concentration of odors of an object is monitored as a function of time for comparison with a reference value or pattern to evaluate the quality of the object. The odor detector may be comprised of a plurality of like odor detector elements with their sensing characteristics staggered due to different operating temperatures set by their associated heater elements. Each odor detector element generates a signal indicative of the total concentration of the odors, enabling a more reliable determination of the quality of an object in reference to a reference object.

Abstract: The invention solves the problem of the utilisation of low temperature energy of geothermic heat for heating accommodation and domestic water. The method according to the invention consists in that the geothermic low temperature energy, which is contained in the water, in the ground and in the filling material of the working chambers of non- operational and working mines, is removed via coils and is transferred to the heated spaces via a system consisting of pipes, a heat pump, an accumulator and a heat distribution, the water being used as medium in one part of the closed circuit and a salt-water solution in the other part. The system is characterised in that the coils (2) are arranged in the filling material or in the ground of the working chamber (1) and connected via pipes to the heat pump (3) and then to the heat accumulator (5), the heat pump (3), the heat accumulator (4) and the heat distribution preferably being arranged underground in non- operational mines, in particular in deep mines, and the heat pump (3) and the accumulator (4) being arranged preferably in the working chamber (1) and the heat distribution (5) on the earth's surface in working mines and in the working chambers of shallow mines. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The known, physiologically acceptable stabiliser combinations of, for example, zinc carbonate and calcium carbonate as primary stabilisers and, for example, esters of the thioglycolic acid as costabilisers are unsatisfactory both with regard to the initial colour and the long-term stability. Stabiliser combinations are proposed which, in addition to the known primary stabilisers, contain, as costabilisers, esters of certain mercaptocarboxylic acids and phenol-substituted aliphatic alcohols. Physiologically acceptable moulding compositions based on polyvinyl chloride or vinyl chloride copolymers are used, in particular, in the foodstuffs sector.

Abstract: A collection container for body fluids includes a bag having walls (66,68) adapted to move with relatively stiff and flexible sheet members(76,78). A squeezing force applied to the side edges of the members (76,78) causes them to bend outwardly thereby expanding the bag. The members have inwardly extending slots (106-112) which allow the bag to adopt a generally conical shape at top and bottom in the expanded condition. 
     The specification also discloses a filter (120) between the bag inlet (22) and outlet (30) which filters incoming liquid but allows gas to pass directly from inlet to outlet without flowing through the filter.

Abstract: Continuous flight auger piling is performed using an auger having a hollow stem 1 and a continuous flight 2. The auger is screwed into the ground and is then extracted whilst concrete is pumped down the stem 1. Extracting the auger lifts the spoil out of the ground and a concrete pile is formed. In order to monitor the flow of concrete and prevent voids forming electrical conductivity sensors 5 are provided. If a void forms, the conductivity drops sharply and the driver can reduce the rate of extraction or stop extraction until the conductivity has regained its proper level.

Abstract: A machine for measuring objects of generally circular cross-section includes a platen movable vertically along a measuring axis and three measuring heads having probe tips which are located along radii arranged symmetrically about the measuring axis. Linear and rotary measuring devices respectively determine the position of the platen along the measuring axis and the angular position of the platen. Each measuring head had measuring devices for determining the position of its probe tip with respect to the measuring axis. The circular object is placed on the platen with its axis generally coinciding with the measuring axis and the probe tips are urged into contact with a circumferentially extending surface on the object. Then the platen and the object on it are moved axially. During the axial displacement, the radial position of the probe tips is measured at intervals and the axial position of the object for each interval is measured by the linear measuring device. From the measurements derived from the measuring heads it is possible to construct an axial profile of the object and to locate the axis of the object. Also by rotating the platen with one of the probe tips in contact with the circumferentially extending surface on the objects it is possible to construct a circumferential profile and to detect any deviation from true circularity.

Abstract: The invention provides for detection of changes in a nucleotide sequence based on the determination of the nucleotide sequence over the region of interest. The first step of the process involves obtaining an amplified DNA sample in which at least one attachment moiety has been introduced into at least one strand of a target polynucleo­tide by a modified polymerase chain reaction. This can be accomplished by synthesizing DNA using the target nucleic acid polymer as a template and using at least one amplifica­tion primer, which includes an attachment moiety bonded to the oligonucleotide. The resulting amplification mixture is repeatedly cycled between a polymerization condition and a denaturation condition occurs for a number of cycles suffi­cient to produce copies of the target nucleic acid polymer in a quantity suitable for use in a DNA sequencing procedure to form an amplified sample comprising copies of the target nucleic acid sequence bonded to the attachment moiety. After amplification, the strands of target nucleic acid polymer carrying an attachment moiety are captured using a solid matrix coated with an attachment site to which the attachment moiety or a modification thereof can bind. In this way, the strands of target nucleic acid become bound to the solid matrix and can be readily separated with the solid matrix from unbound reactants for sequencing.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thin film semiconductor device and a liquid crystal display apparatus. In the thin film semiconductor device, because light irradiated to the thin film semiconductor device is cut off by a conductor layer, the light can be prevented from reaching the semiconductor layer. Therefore generation of carriers due to optical excitation does not occur and off current can be reduced. In the thin film semiconductor device, because there is no area where electric field intensity of an opposed direction of the source electrode and the drain electrode is weaker than that in the channel region in the semi­conductor layer, even after an operation for a prolonged duration under the irradiation of light, carriers generated by optical excitation are not accumulated in the semiconductor layer, and probability of the trapping for the carriers into a gate insulating film is quite low, and therefore variation in the characteristics of the thin film semiconductor device is negligibly small. The liquid crystal display apparatus using the thin film semiconductor can restrict such deterioration of display quality as the degradation of contrast and uniformity.
