Filed: 1997-04-17
Abstract: A coil mat for generating a large-surface magnetic field has several individual coils (S1, S2) distributed over the mat surface and capable of being connected by a connection line to a power supply generator (G). The invention is characterised in that the individual coils (S1, S2) are designed as conductor loops of approximately the same surface area uniformly distributed over the mat surface. Input and/or feedback conductors of the individual conductor loops may consist of several electrically parallel individual conductors. Generator circuits for energising such coil mats are also disclosed. This design makes it possible to generate a magnetic field of relatively uniform field intensity even over a larger surface, such as a blanket.

Date Jan. 22, 1998The invention relates to a process for preparation of hen's eggs during which the eggs are put into a cooking chamber of an egg-cooking container (2) closeable by a cover (8), which chamber contains a liquid heat-supplying medium, preferably water. The preparation temperature during a first preparation stage is below the boiling temperature of the water, and during a following second preparation stage is held below the temperature of the first preparation stage but above 55 DEG  C. During the first preparation stage, the water starts at a temperature of approx. 55 DEG  C. and is heated at a high heating rate to a temperature of at least 90 DEG  C. during a first period with the result that the eggs rapidly reach a core temperature of approx. 58 DEG  to 75 DEG  C. At the start of the second preparation stage, the water temperature is reduced at a high cooling rate to a final temperature of between 80 DEG  C. and 55 DEG  C. The eggs are cooked at this final temperature for a predetermined second period to destroy remaining salmonella The cover (8) is opened automatically to remove the eggs not until after the end of the second period.

Abstract: Novel bactericidal antibodies against Neisseria meningitidis serogroup B ("MenB") are disclosed. The antibodies either do not cross-react or minimally cross-react with host tissue polysialic acid and hence pose minimal risk of autoimmune activity. The antibodies are used to identify molecular mimetics of unique eptitopes found on MenB or E. coli K1. Examples of such peptide mimetics are described that elicit serum antibody capable of activating complement-mediated bacteriolysis of MenB. Vaccine compositions containing such mimetics can be used to prevent MenB or E. coli K1 disease without the risk of evoking autoantibody.

Abstract: There is provided an intervertebral prosthetic device for replacement of an intervertebral disc. The device includes a first fixation member (14; 78) for fixation within a first vertebral body and a second fixation member for fixation within a second vertebral body adjacent the first vertebral body. The present prosthetic device also includes a compressible member (18; 82) for positioning between the first and second fixation members. The compressible member (18; 82) has an outer periphery less than or substantially equal to a diameter of a nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc. The compressible member (18; 82) thus essentially fits within the annulus fibrosis of the intervertebral disc. Moreover, the compressible member (18; 82) also has at least one spring that can be pre-loaded to place the annulus fibrosis under tension and to reproduce the mechanical properties of a natural disc. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention automatically and quickly digitizes small
format films, such as dental radiographs, and digital images. The radiographs are
scanned using a flat-bed scanner with a transparency adapter. A template is used
during image capture to assist in proper exposure during the digitization step to
minimize undesired flare. Exposure levels are adjusted to accommodate the wide
variability that can be found in processed films. A user interface is provided that
will automatically bound the region of the platen to be scanned so that image
processing can be accommodated on an image by image basis. An image
tonescaling algorithm is implemented to render the image for soft copy display on
an electronic display or other output device.

Abstract: Sliding contact portions (27,29,31) on an inner
surface of a bearing seat (4) slidably support a ball head
of a ball stud (3) in a housing (2). Spaces between one or
more of the sliding contact portions (27,29,31) contain
lubricant reserves. load receiving portions on the outer
surface of the bearing seat (4) facing the housing (2) also
support the load placed on the ball stud (3). Protruding
portions on the sliding contact portions (27,29,31) decrease
contact surface area and permit lubricant to cover nearly
the entire ball head surface. The load receiving portions
and sliding contact portions (27,29,31), including the
protruding portions, deform to absorb repeated heavy loads
while maintaining friction compensation and stable torque.
The ball joint (1) has an improved ability to compensate for
dimensional tolerances, which facilitates component
manufacture. The load withstanding ability, lubrication
efficiency and durability of the ball joint (1) are thus
improved.

Abstract: A case for holding two compact discs or the like including
first and second cover parts pivotally connected together so that
they can be pivoted between a closed position facing each other
and an open position. The cover parts and the structure for
pivotally connecting them together is of the type for holding a
single compact disc. A tray comprises a planar body portion and
an anchor portion, the tray body portion including an annular
rosette of fingers on each side thereof for releasably securing a
compact disc thereto, the tray body and the tray anchor being
pivotally connected together and the tray anchor being secured to
one of the cover parts. As a result, when the cover parts are
pivoted to an open position the tray body can be pivoted about
the tray anchor to facilitate installation and removal of compact
discs from both sides of the tray body. Advantageously, the
manner in which the tray anchor is secured to the cover parts
enables the tray to be readily installed in a standard case for
holding one compact disc. The separate tray body and anchor
portions together with the nature of the pivotal connection
therebetween provide a structure which is strong and long-lasting.
