Patent EP-0578631-A4 (EP)
Title: Cell separation invention.
Inventor: SOON-SHIONG PATRIC
IPC: A61K35/12
Filed: 1990-09-18
Abstract: An aqueous composition and a method of use are disclosed for the separation of different living cells, such as pancreatic islet and acinar cells. The composition comprises a water soluble, metabolically inert substance to control density, osmolarity and pH; a physiological cold storage solution containing viscosity modifiers to increase the viscosity and osmotically active, impermeant agents to suppress cold-induced edema; all in a medium capable of maintaining viable cells. The solutions are combined to provide a first solution with a density greater than both cell types in their natural state but less than the second cell type after incubation in said solution; and a second solution with a density less than that of both cell types. Separation is achieved by allowing the system to stand or by centrifugation.
Patent EP-0474871-A4 (EP)
IPC: F02D41/16
Filed: 1990-12-25
Abstract: Le dispositif décrit sert à commander la vitesse du ralenti d'un moteur à combustion interne auquel on applique la théorie de commande dite ''moderne'' et se propose d'améliorer radicalement la vitesse de convergence vers un nombre de tours cible. Ce dispositif permet la mise à jour des valeurs de variables d'état même en état de commande en boucle ouverte, de façon à ce que le calcul des valeurs initiales s'effectue même au moment du passage en mode de commande à réaction. Lors de la détection d'un changement d'état de la charge externe, une valeur d'intégration est corrigée en mode à action directe, avant qu'elle soit limitée à une plage prédéterminée par un organe de limitation de valeur d'intégration en accord avec un tel changement d'état. Le dispositif décrit divise un modèle dynamique pour un système de commande en une partie temps mort et en une partie après la partie temps mort et identifie le modèle dynamique par un système séparé pour chacune de ses partie en vue de le configurer.

Patent EP-0583395-A4 (EP)
Title: Ultra high speed labeling apparatus and method.
Inventor: DICKEY DANIEL M
IPC: B65C9/14
Filed: 1992-05-08
Abstract: An apparatus and method for high speed placement of labels onto containers (1) by a continuous motion. The label stock (16) is transferred to a rotary vacuum drum (10), carried by rotation of the vacuum drum to a glue application station (18) and then to a label application station (15) where the glue coated labels are wrapped onto containers. As the containers reach the labeling position they are already rotating so that their surfaces are moving at the same speed as the drum surface. The labeled containers are then discharged onto a conveyor (9) where they are held against rotation and stabilized by a pair of parallel belt drives (12, 14). Glue is imprinted onto each label by a roller (30) with a patterned surface. The roller picks up glue as it rotates past a glue bar surface (31) which emits glue from a tapered exit (40). The tapered configuration causes build up of suitable pressure so as to force the glue into the pattern on the glue roller. A downstream edge (42) of the glue bar surface acts as a doctor to spread and wipe off excess glue. The excess glue collects in a hollow (43) adjacent to the edge, and may be recirculated.

Patent EP-0643855-A4 (EP)
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 1993-05-27
Abstract: The present invention provides suggested delay limits for use by layout tools which cause a programmable integrated circuit device to implement a logic design. The suggested delay limits can be used by such tools as an initial placement algorithm, a placement improvement algorithm, and a routing algorithm for evaluating and guiding potential layouts. The suggested delay limits take into account characteristics of the programmable device being used by estimating lower bound delays for each connection in a logic design, and take into account any previously achieved delays or achievable delays for each connection in calculating the suggested limits. Results of routing benchmark designs using the novel suggested limits show improved timing performance for all benchmark cases tested.

Title: Optical safety device for mounting on a moving member
Inventor: APPLEYARD ROBERT MEREDITH
IPC: B21D55/00

Abstract: Safety apparatus and method for protecting an object entering into the path of a moving blade in a press brake (10). The apparatus includes laser emitters (22) and receivers (24) for mounting in fixed relationship to the leading edge (36) of the blade (18) to provide a plurality of light beams (26) in advance of the blade (18). A controller (51) including halting means (57) for halting advancing movement of the blade in response to certain contingencies is provided. These contingencies include those involving interruption or obstruction of the light beams (26) and those which are indicative of a fault with the press or the safety apparatus itself. Accordingly the controller (51) also includes laser control and processing means (54), blade movement control means (56) and blade position processing means (58) which operate in conjunction with the halting means (57) to enable overriding control of the movement of the blade (18). The laser control and processing means further includes pulsing means (55) to pulse the emitted light beams (26) in a unique manner so that each beam (26) can be differentiated from the others and also from ambient light sources. Vibration sensing means is also provided to enable discrimination between normal and abnormal vibration of the laser emitters (22) and receivers (24). The method involves use of a mute point set a prescribed height above the material to be pressed whereby operation of the halting means (57) is associated with the position of the blade (18) relative to the mute point, whereby sensing of the laser beams for interruption or obstruction is muted after the blade (18) reaches the mute point. Different arrangements for setting the mute point are also described.
