Patent EP-0118247-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HESTER GEORGE HOWARD
IPC: H01C10/50
Filed: 1984-02-17
Abstract: A potentiometer comprises a resistive first track (1) with first and second terminals (2,3) to which a voltage is applied. A conductive wiper (5) traverses the first track and is connected to a third terminal (7) to provide an analogue output signal dependent on the position of the wiper. A conductive second track (8) has discrete insulating regions (9) along its length and is provided with a fourth terminal (10). The wiper (5) also traverses this second track (8). It is arranged that sharply defined transitions in electrical output (logic transitions) occur at the fourth terminal (10) as the wiper (5) traverses boundaries between the insulating regions (9) and the second track (8). The analogue output from the third terminal (7) at positions of the wiper (5) where the output transitions at the fourth terminal (10) occur, provide calibration points to permit accurate relating of the wiper position to the output from the third terminal (7) at any location between the calibration points. Particularly applicable to position sensing, e.g. in engine management systems.

Abstract: A pressure exchanger, preferably usable as a high-pressure compressor for gas turbine installations, has a multiplicity of coaxial cell rotors which can be driven in the same direction, and a central pressure exchanger combustion chamber located within the innermost cell rotor. Driving gases generated in the combustion chamber flow through the cell rotors in series from inside to outside and can be expanded as low pressure driving gases in the low pressure part of the turbine. The air to be compressed flows through the cell rotors in series from the outermost cell rotor towards the inside. A part of the air mass flow compressed to the final pressure, which part is greater than the driving gas mass flow, arrives as combustion air in the pressure exchanger combustion chamber; the other part of the air can be used as combustion air for a turbine combustion chamber, which generates high pressure driving gas for the gas turbine. The inlet and outlet cross-sections of the driving gas and air ports in the control casings are so designed that the closing edge of the low pressure air port viewed in the rotational direction of the cell rotor, is located before the closing edge of the low pressure driving gas port.

Abstract: @ The invention provides a nonenzymatic method useful for the semiquantitative determination of glucose, a test composition and test device. Glucose concentration in an aqueous test sample can be determined by preparing a test solution by contacting an aqueous test sample and a dihydroxide component, at an initial pH above 6.5, capable of forming a complex with glucose which complex formation releases a proton, and determining the final pH of the test solution. The invention also provides a self-indicating device format which allows the determination of glucose concentration by merely counting the number of pads which have changed color. No comparison to a color chart is required. The glucose test of the present invention is free of the interferences found in enzymatic glucose tests.

Abstract: A beverage dispensing system and distributing process with such a system has a flexible bag 1 containing the beverage which may have carbon dioxide dissolved therein. The beverage is drawn off through a pipe 3 (assisted by a pump 8) for dispensing through nozzle 5 having a tap 6. Carbon dioxide, nitrogen (or other inert gas) and/or air gases are introduced into the beverage through a passage 11 by way of a fixed orifice restrictor 12 and a non-return valve 13. The pressure of the gas which is introduced is adjustable at 14 and baffles 15 can provide turbulence in the beverage during dispensing to promote the dissolution of the introduced gas therein. 
     The facility to introduce the gas or gases permits the beverage in the bag 1 to have a low content of carbon dioxide so that the bag collapses under atmospheric pressure while the beverage as dispensed is additionally gasified for the formation of a froth or head.

Abstract: A chemically-syrtthesized oligonucleotide composing a portion of the nucleotide sequence of the human IL-2 is employed as a probe to isolate the gene coding for human IL-2. The human IL-2 gene is selected from a cDNA library prepared from RNA produced by mitogen-stimulated Jurkat cells. Double-stranded cDNA is prepared from polyadenylated RNA extracted from bovine cells thought to produce interleukin-2. Such cDNA is inserted within a plasmid vector and the recombinant plasmid employed to transform hosts. Plasmid DNA, prepared from pools of the transformed hosts, is hybridized with a probe composed of a large portion of the coding sequence of the human IL-2 gene. Pools of host cells that provide a positive signal to the human cDNA probe are identified, subdivided, and rescreened until a single positive colony is identified. Bovine plasmid cDNA is prepared from this colony, and the bIL-2 gene is sequehced. The plasmid DNA is employed to express recombinant bovine IL-2 in yeast and bacterial expression systems, with the expressad bovine IL-2 purified to homogeneity by one or more reverse phase high-performance liquid chromatography procedures.
