Patent EP-1066846-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FORD ANDREW JOHN
IPC: A61M5/145
Filed: 2000-06-15
Abstract: Syringe pump has plunger head retainer (10) with two retainer arms (111 and 112)
mounted on shafts (113 and 114) extending parallel to the syringe axis. Each shaft
carries gear (121 and 122), which is engaged by common gear wheel (142) mounted on
threaded shaft (146). After the syringe (3) has been loaded in the pump, the plunger head
retainer (10) is driven forwards until a pad (107) coupled with a force sensor (108) detects contact
with the head (36). This causes the retainer arms to be swung in across the
forward side of the plunger head (36) and to be pulled rearwardly against the plunger head. The
pump then reduces the force applied by the retainer arms to ensure that the force
sensor (108) can respond to force on the plunger (35) during expulsion of liquid from the syringe.

Abstract: The invention relates to a droplet separator for separating liquid droplets as well as the solid matter and condensate associated therewith from a gas flow (a) brought into rotary motion. The droplet separator (1) comprises a gas flow duct (11, 13, 15) and a droplet separation tube (12) surrounding it. The gas flow duct is formed of three successive parts placed at a distance from one another in the direction of flow, which parts are a flow tube (11), a cone part (13) tapering in the direction of flow, and a continuation tube (15). The diameter of the front end of the cone part (13) is smaller than the diameter of the flow tube (11) and the rear end thereof is at a suitable distance from the continuation tube (15). Flow gaps are formed between said successive parts (11, 13, 15) of the flow duct, which gaps provide an open flow connection between the flow duct and the droplet separation tube. The outermost layer (c) of the gas flow (a) is passed through the first gap from the flow duct (11) into the droplet separation tube (12) for separating the droplets, and the gas flow made free from droplets is passed through the second gap from the droplet separation tube (12) back into the flow duct (15).

Abstract: This invention relates to a process for preparing 4-nitrodiphenylamine and 4-nitrosodiphenylamine to be used for 4-aminodiphenylamine as an intermediate of antiozonant, wherein carbanilide is reacted with nitrobenzene in the presence of an appropriate base, while simultaneously adding aniline to the mixture so as to regenerate some amounts of carbanilide as a starting material. According to this invention, 4-nitrodiphenylamine and 4-nitrosodiphenylamine can be prepared in a higher selectivity and conversion rate via a continuous reaction by recycling carbanilide, a starting material, while adding a certain amount of aniline during the process. Further, the amount of waste water can be significantly reduced compared to the conventional method without any corrosive materials harmful to the environment.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un appareil de mesure qui peut détecter au moins une molécule trace dans un échantillon de gaz. Cet appareil de mesure peut comprendre un photo-ioniseur (102) couplé à un spectromètre de masse à ionisation d'électrons (100). Le photo-ioniseur (102) peut ioniser l'échantillon de gaz à une ou plusieurs longueurs d'ondes qui entraînent la ionisation des molécules traces sans créer de fragmentation.  L'incorporation du dispositif ioniseur d'électrons (106) peut permettre une ionisation alternée ou additionnelle permettant de détecter les molécules traces non ionisées par le photo-ioniseur (102). L'échantillon de gaz peut être ionisé à la pression atmosphérique, ce qui augmente la production de molécules traces ionisées et la sensibilité du spectromètre de masse (100).

Abstract: A system for capturing an electronic message is disclosed. The system includes a printer, a sensing device and a computer system. The printer prints on a substrate user information visible to a user and coded tags invisible to the user. Each coded tag encodes an identity unique to the substrate and a location of the coded tag on the substrate. The user information defines a message area on the substrate. The sensing device senses the coded tags on the substrate when the sensing device is moved relative to the substrate. The computer system electronically captures a message composed with the sensing device via movement of the sensing device relative to the message area, the computer system using the identity of the substrate and a sequence of respective locations of coded tags sensed by the sensing device for determining the movement relative to the message area and the message.
