Title: Method and apparatus for making dimensionally stable pressed articles
IPC: B30B11/00
Filed: 1990-05-31
Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for making dimensionally stable pressed articles from pulverulent compositions, in particular metal powder, on a press in a compression mould with at least one upper die and at least one lower die, in which the pressing dies in the final pressing position are moved to predetermined theoretical positions, and, during the pressing, the progression of the compressive force of at least one of the dies is recorded as a function of the travel and compared in each case with a predetermined, travel-dependent tolerance range for the compressive force. In order to provide a method and an apparatus which permit even closer tolerances as regards the dimensional accuracy of the pressed articles and at the same time further reduce the risk of defective production, it is proposed that, if the tolerance range is exceeded, the theoretical position of the die in question in the final pressing position is modified so that the height of the pressed article in the final pressing position is reduced by an amount which corresponds to the increased upward expansion of the pressed article after its unmoulding, associated with the higher final pressing force, and the reverse procedure is adopted if the compressive force falls below the tolerance range.

Patent EP-0389190-A3 (EP)
IPC: F24F6/14
Filed: 1990-03-15
Abstract: A dry or like cooling apparatus and method primarily for an 
air conditioning system is provided in which a heat 
exchanger or cooler (32) is subjected to an air stream (A) 
for transfer of heat from fluid e.g. water in the cooler 
(32) to the air and in which a fine spray or mist of water 
is introduced into the air stream (A) so as to be 
substantially absorbed by the latter. As a result the air 
stream is adiabatically cooled for effecting a considerably 
improved cooling action on the cooler (32) especially under 
conditions of high ambient temperature e.g. in the region 
of 30°C. The water spray may be intermittent or pulsed and 
may be controlled in dependence on the temperature of the 
water passing through the cooler (32) and/or of the air 
stream. Since mains water can be used and any slight 
deposition of water soon dries there is little or no risk 
of Legionella bacteria breeding as compared with a wet 
cooling tower whilst the apparatus occupies considerably 
less space than a dry cooler.

Title: Scanner with retractable roller feed
IPC: G06K13/063
Filed: 1990-12-20
Abstract: A scanner is operative with an imaging system for inducing a mechanical movement of a subject during an optical scanning of the subject to provide an image of the subject. The subject which is in the shape of a card is advanced along a travel path past an optical viewing site by means of a drum, the scanner including a first roller and a second roller which urge the subject against the drum. Initially, the first roller is located between the viewing site and the entry port for receipt of the subject in a first nip between the first roller and the drum. The second roller is positioned fixed on the opposite side of the viewing site. The first roller is supported by an arm which swings about a rotational axis of the drum to vary the spacing between the two rollers. Upon rotation of the drum in a forward direction for induction of the subject, a brake located between the drum and the arm drags the arm and the first roller towards the second roller to facilitate a transference of a leading edge of the subject from the first nip to a second nip defined by the second roller and the drum. Preparatory to optical scanning of the subject which is accomplished during reverse rotation of the drum, the arm swings the first roller away from the second roller to present the viewing site to the optical scanning beam. <IMAGE>

Title: Recombinant DNA viral vector for transfecting animal cells
Inventor: SAITO IZUMU
IPC: C12N5/10
Filed: 1995-09-14
Abstract: An animal cell is co-transfected with both a recombinant DNA viral vector which bears a promoter, a recombinase gene and a poly(A) sequence and a recombinant DNA viral vector which bears two recombinase-recognition sequences and which further bears an origin of replication, a promoter a foreign gene and a poly(A) sequence, each of which is located between the two recombinase-recognition sequences. Thereafter, in the co-transfected animal cell, a DNA fragment containing the origin of replication, promoter, foreign gene and poly(A) sequence is excised from a vector by the action of recombinase expressed by the other vector. The excised DNA fragment forms a circular DNA molecule which autonomously replicates in the co-transfected animal cell due to the origin of replication, whereby the foreign gene is continuously expressed. Accordingly, when the foreign gene corresponds to a gene which is defective in a patient, the combination of the above two DNA viral vectors is useful in gene therapy, especially in the treatment of a patient with a hereditary disease.

Filed: 1996-01-31
Abstract: The invention provides a heat pump air
conditioner using air as a heat source which can operate
for heating even at the temperature of outdoor air lower
than -15 °C. A scroll compressor (1), a four-way valve
(2), an indoor heat exchanger (101), a receiver (7), an
outdoor refrigerant control valve (4), and an outdoor
heat exchanger (3) are connected in sequence by pipes.
A bypass flow line for injecting a liquid refrigerant
into the scroll compressor is arranged between a
receiver (7) and the scroll compressor through a liquid
injection refrigerant control valve (6). The scroll
compressor is variable in rotational speed and is
operated at a high speed under control by a rotational
speed controller for thereby achieving a high heating
capability. Even when the temperature of outdoor air is
lower than -15 °C, particularly at around -20 °C, the
heat pump air conditioner can develop a heating capability
comparable to that developed when the temperature of
outdoor air is 0 °C. The cost required for the heat
pump air conditioner to effect heating and cooling is
comparable to the cost required for an air conditioner
which employs kerosene for heating and a refrigeration
cycle for cooling.

IPC: B01D43/00
Filed: 1996-11-08
Abstract: A chamber for exerting an ultrasound beam on a sample 
solution containing particles to be concentrated, separated or arranged 
is provided with a view toward arbitrarily controlling the shape of a 
spatial distribution of potential energy created by the ultrasound beam 
and concentrating, separating or periodically arranging the particles. 
In contrast to the chamber, irradiation ultrasound sources for 
generating ultrasound beams are provided to create an ultrasonic 
intensity distribution for producing a position potential energy 
distribution used to exert a force forwarded in a predetermined 
direction or a force staying at a predetermined region to each particle. 
Thus, a specific spatial distribution of potential energy can be realized 
by ultrasound beams each having a specific intensity, a specific 
frequency and a specific phase or an ultrasound beam formed by 
superimposing these on one another. Further, at least one suction 
hole for recovering separated solvents or particles is defined in a wall 
surface of the tube, which is orthogonal to the flow of the sample 
solution.

IPC: H04B1/7075
Filed: 1996-07-24
Abstract: A PN code acquisition system for Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) Direct
Sequence Spread Spectrum (DSSS) systems, with automatic decision threshold, is
based on the combination of the Maximum Likelihood (ML) and Serial Search (SS)
acquisition approaches. In contrast to the conventional SS acquisition system, the
disclosed system adaptively estimates optimal threshold by exploiting the statistics
of the signal and noise, and makes an optimal decision based on the threshold.
The system estimates the threshold by employing ML estimation and applies the
threshold as in SS acquisition and makes a decision by comparing the updated
threshold with the current signal strength. Together with post detection
verification logic, this approach will increase detection probability and reduce false
alarm probability significantly. An optimum system parameter design approach and
the advantages of this approach as compared to conventional approaches (ML or
SS acquisition) are demonstrated.
