Abstract: An electric storage heater contains a heat-storage core, heating bodies surrounded by this, and a heat-insulating cage surrounding the core. The heat-insulating cage can be closed on its front side which forms the mounting side (14) by a front insulating wall (10). The heat-insulating cage has a cage side wall (8), through which lines such as heat-transmission, control and/or regulating elements are guided to the cage interior. The cage side wall (8) is of multi-layer design and also contains a guide-through wall (18) as well as shaped walls (19, 20) flanking the latter on one side. The guide-through wall (18) contains guide-through openings (25). They make possible a lateral mobility of the lines transversely to their longitudinal axis (29) during mounting. In the final mounted position, the shaped walls (19, 20) bear flush against one another and with their recesses (23, 24) positively surround the lines. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In a Fabry-Perot etalon or interferometer the metal mirrors are each provided with a dielectric coating on the side facing away from the enclosed gap. The dielectric coating, which may be seen as an analogue of anti-reflection coatings such as commonly applied to the elements of optical instruments, leads to the advantage of peak transmittance being improved without the finesse being adversely affected. The dielectric coating is transparent for the wavelength (λ) used and preferably has a thickness of about ¼λ/n, n being the refractive index of the dielectric coating material. The coating preferably is of a material having a high index of refraction, examples thereof including zirconium dioxide, titanium dioxide, zinc sulfide, or zinc selenide.

Abstract: For shear-cutting a stack of thin strips of amorphous steel along a cutting plane that extends transversely of the stack, I utilize apparatus that comprises two blades that are positioned at the start of a cutting operation on opposite sides of the stack. Each of the blades has a first surface for engaging one side of the stack and a second surface extending transversely of the first surface and generally parallel to said cutting plane and intersecting the first surface at a corner. The first surface of each blade is disposed at a predetermined rake angle with respect to a reference plan extending through a point on the corner of the blade and normal to said cutting plane. The apparatus is further characterized by the following features that cooperate to impart to the blades an exceptionally high resistance to wear: (i) the sum of the rake angles is of a negative value and between 5 and 35 degrees, and (ii) both blades are of a cemented carbide cutting material that consists essentially of tungsten carbide particles and cobalt particles compacted under high pressure and sintered at a temperature exceeding the melting point of the cobalt, the tungsten carbide particles being, on average, of submicron size and the cobalt constituting more than 15 percent and about 16 percent by weight of the cutting material.

Abstract: A self-blast circuit breaker comprising a movable assembly including an arc chamber in two parts consisting of a blast chamber (17) and of a compression chamber (18). The two chambers are separated from one another by a crown (9). The compression chamber (18) is closed by a semi-movable piston (11). The circuit breaker is characterised by a means for immobilising the piston during a first part of the movement of the movable contact assembly between a closing position and an opening position and by a means for axially displacing the piston with the movable contact assembly during a second part of this displacement. This makes it possible to reduce the quantity of energy necessary for displacing the movable contact assembly during the opening operation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A network topology generator identifies addresses and locations of multiple stations (T1...T80) connected to a single access port (13) of a communications network by determining a pair of identifiable network units between which the multiple stations are connected, sequentially deactivating access ports between the pairs of identifiable network units and issuing selected message frames to the stations whose location is unknown. The message frames returning from said stations are monitored to detect the state of the Address Recognized (AR) bit. If the bit is set, this indicates that the station is still on the network. Therefore, the deactivate/polling routine is repeated until the AR bit in a returned message is in an "off" state, indicating that the station is not on the network and is connected to the last deactivated port.

Abstract: Un positionneur (100) destiné à être utilisé dans des systèmes pneumatiques déplace un opérateur pneumatique. Ledit positionneur consiste en un positionneur pilote électronique ou une interface électronique/pneumatique qui permet de positionner des actionneurs linéaires (250) de manière précise en réponse à un signal de commande électronique (561). L'actionneur se déplace alors que le fluide pneumatique est évacué ou amené par la soupape d'évacuation ou la soupape d'alimentation. Le positionneur utilise deux électro-aimants pour commander une soupape d'alimentation (302) et une soupape d'évacuation (312). Ledit positionneur se compose d'un circuit de commande électronique (500) qui reçoit un signal en provenance d'un régulateur central et un signal en provenance d'un circuit de réaction (200). Le circuit de commande électronique compare le signal de réaction au signal émis par le régulateur central et produit un signal de positionnement de l'actionneur.

Abstract: On a découvert que des peptides dérivés de trois régions du domaine lectine de GMP-140 (sélectine P) et des sélectines apparentées, ELAM-1 (sélectine E) et le récepteur de guidage lymphocytaire (sélectine L), inhibent l'adhérence des neutrophiles à GMP-140. Ces peptides et d'autres ont été synthétisés et ils comportent en guise de région centrale des portions de la séquence d'acide aminé 74-76 de GMP-140, le résidu 1 étant défini comme le terminal N de la protéine mature après coupure du peptide de signal. Des exemples démontrent l'inhibition de la liaison de neutrophiles avec GMP-140 par des peptides à des concentrations allant de 30 à 1500 mumol. On a découvert que des modifications survenant dans la séquence centrale, ainsi que dans des régions adjacentes des terminaux N et C, n'entraînent aucune diminution d'activité biologique. Ces peptides sont utiles pour le diagnostic et, combinés avec un vecteur pharmaceutique approprié, pour des applications cliniques concernant la modulation ou l'inhibition des processus de coagulation ou d'inflammation.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP93/01127 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 24, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 24, 1994 PCT Filed May 7, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO93/23689 PCT Pub. Date Nov. 25, 1993The invention concerns a control system (10) for changing automatic gears (3) that operates according to fuzzy logic methods. All the fuzzy-production rules are divided into at least three sections: a set of basic rules to determine the gear-changing point in a consumption-oriented driving style, a set of adaptation rules to modify the set of basic rules depending on a current driving style and an identification set of rules for classifying the driver according to his/her driving style. By way of a supplementary set of adaptation rules the set of basic rules can be additionally modified according to a current driving condition. Individual function blocks (11 to 15) operate preferably according to the same inference mechanism. Gamma operators are used in order to approximate as closely as possible human behavior. A process is proposed for generating membership functions to determine a running condition by fuzzy-production rules. In a preferred embodiment the adaptive gear-changing behavior is activated by forming offsets. Priorities are allotted to the rules especially for reasons of safety and reliability.

Abstract: Stimulateur cardiaque sensible au rythme, dans lequel la décélération du rythme de stimulation est modulée en fonction de l'activité ou du "travail" récent du patient. Selon les signaux produits par un détecteur d'activité dans le stimulateur, celui-ci maintient et recalcule périodiquement une valeur de travail correspondant au niveau d'activité du patient, détecté sur une certaine période. En réponse à une réduction ou à l'arrêt de l'activité détectée du patient, le stimulateur réduit le rythme de stimulation, d'abord à une vitesse de décélération plus élevée, puis à une vitesse de décélération moins élevée, et ensuite encore une fois à une vitesse plus élevée. La période au cours de laquelle le rythme de stimulation est réduit à la vitesse de décélération moins élevée est modulée en fonction de la valeur de travail maintenue par le stimulateur. La décélération du rythme de stimulation modulée par le travail n'a lieu que si certains critères de fonctionnement sont satisfaits, ceux-ci étant spécifiés en fonction de la période au cours de laquelle le rythme de stimulation cible du stimulateur dépasse une valeur de repos prédéterminée, et en fonction de la différence entre le rythme cible et le rythme de repos.
