Patent EP-0077780-B1 (EP)
IPC: F24J2/51

Granted: 1985-10-02
Abstract: Wall construction arrangement for the utilization of solar energy, e.g., in the heating of buildings. The objective of the invention is to improve the heat-economic output of wall constructions. The invention is based on the idea that at least one insulation is used whose heat conductivity is changed substantially as a function of temperature. When such an insulation is used, the wall construction functions as a sort of a heat diode so that heat is shifted mainly from outside inwards and not vice versa. The wall construction arrangement in accordance with the invention comprises a face board (1), which is substantially penetrable by the heat radiation of the sun but which is hardly penetrable by radiation of a different wavelength in the opposite direction, as well as an absorption layer (3), which is fitted inside the face board and which absorbs at least part of the heat radiation that has come through the face board (1). The insulation layer (7) which is fitted inside the absorption layer (3) is made of a material whose heat conductivity is substantially variable as a function of the temperature. This material preferably contains some liquid. The insulation material may be, e.g., cellular plastic whose pores contain moisture, or moist mineral wool.

Title: Control of dna sequence transcription
IPC: C12N15/62
Filed: 1982-11-23
Granted: 1992-02-12
Abstract: The transcription of DNA sequences in living cells is subjected to external regulation by incorporation of promoter/regulator DNA sequences responsive to metals and/or steroids. More particularly, regulation of the transcription of selected exogenous DNA sequences incorporated into eukaryotic host cells is facilitated by operative association (e.g., fusion) of the selected sequence to a promoter/regulator DNA sequence which is positively or negatively responsive to environmental variation in the concentration of heavy metal ions and/or steroid hormones. As an example, a structural gene for thymidine kinase from herpes simplex virus, fused to the promoter/regulator DNA sequence of a mouse metallothionein-I gene and incorporated on a suitable DNA plasmid vector, is introduced into mouse embryos and stably incorporated therein. Gene expression in differentiated cells of adult mice resulting from the embryos is subsequently regulatable by administration of heavy metals such as cadmium or steroid hormones such as the glucocorticoid, dexamethasone.

Abstract: Système de batterie (10, 110) où une solution électrolytique d'hydroxyde de lithium dissous dans de l'eau de mer passe à travers une cartouche de batterie (11, 111). Le système est mis sous pression. Une partie du mélange électrolytique est évacuée du système par une vanne adéquate de régulation de pression (20) pendant que, simultanément, de l'eau de mer fraîche est introduite dans le système par une pompe sous pression (17). L'accroissement de pression contribue à augmenter la densité de la partie gazeuse du mélange émis gaz/liquide, à réduire le volume de la partie gazeuse du mélange émis gaz/liquide, réduisant ainsi le volume total du mélange émis, et à réduire le rapport entre le volume de gaz et le volume de liquide dans le système ainsi que dans le mélange émis gaz/liquide.

Abstract: A hydraulic tensioning device for tracked vehicles comprising a hydraulically chargeable piston-cylinder unit, coupled on one end with the body of the vehicle, and with the other end to a guide wheel for the track chain which is supported on a rocker arm. In order to obtain the proper track chain tension in any operating condition without providing a separate hydraulic pump, the piston unit is equipped with a tappet supported against the piston unit by means of a spring unit. The tappet closes off a secondary cylinder chamber in the piston unit which is connected with the principal cylinder chamber by two check valves which seal in opposite directions. The tappet effects a pumping action as the result of the vibration generated by the chain links running in and out the guide wheel, thereby pumping the hydraulic oil from a hydraulic oil reservoir into the secondary cylinder chamber and from there into the principal cylinder chamber.

Abstract: The heat exchanger in particular the cooler has an outer casing (1) and an inner quadrangular chamber (1 min ) which contains a plurality of tubular conduits (from 7 to 21) inclined to one another and in respect of the direction of movement of the viscous fluid, alternatively crossing and having a circular section with a superimposed plate to force the fluid streams of the viscous liquid which passes through them in vertical direction (arrows 22 and 23) to diverge when they leave each tubular conduit and to mix with the adjacent diverging flows in consequence of the crossing of the said tubular conduits. The cooling water enters an adjacent chamber (3), passes through the aforementioned tubular conduits and leaves from the opposite side in an adjacent second chamber (4) to recirculate in closed cycle with high velocity and quantity. Only the heat given up by the viscous fluid is restored. Each unit is modular, that is, superimposable to increase the cooling capacity.
