Abstract: Method for synchronising a clock generated with the aid of a counter with a reference clock. 
<??>So that a reference clock (fR) can also be replaced in case of neeed by another clock (f) without phase shift, the phase in addition to the frequency of the clock (f) must be synchronised with the reference clock. However, since the reference clock can fail or be disturbed, unwanted synchronisation events frequently occur in these cases. It is the object of the invention to produce phase synchronisation between the two clocks which is as free of errors as possible. 
<??>As a rule, synchronisation is therefore only carried out when a particular edge of the reference clock occurs within a time band fixed with respect to the clock (f).

Title: Process for purifying rinsing water and exhausted gases by surface treatment processes
IPC: B01D1/26
Filed: 1990-05-19
Granted: 1993-08-11
Abstract: In a process for purifying rinsing water and exhausted gases with simultaneous recovery of valuable substances and rinsing water and minimum energy consumption in surface treatment processes, the invention provides that the various rinsing solutions generated in the rinsing baths in the treatment process are each separately rendered more concentrated in an evaporator of a multi-stage evaporator system. The steam generated in an evaporator is in each case used to indirectly heat the next stage at lower pressure and, consequently, lower temperature and the temperature-compatible baths are first evaporated down progressively with a temperature drop of 10 to 20 DEG C. At the same time, an energy, rinsing water and valuable-substance circuits are used which comprise the return of the condensate as rinsing water, the separation and return of the valuable substances generated in each stage and the utilisation of the excess energy.

Title: Air outlet cabinet of trapezoidal cross section
IPC: F24F13/06
Filed: 1990-06-13
Granted: 1993-06-02
Abstract: An air release box has at least one perforated bottom wall section and perforated longitudinal side wall sections. At least certain of the perforated wall sections, including the perforated bottom wall section, are equipped with spin air outlets for increasing the penetration depth of low turbulence air jets into a room. Without such spin air outlets the low turbulence air jets tend to be unstable at relatively low exit velocities. The tendency of these air jets to quickly decay is thus delayed. The highly turbulent air jets exiting from said spin air outlets do not entrain air in the room, but rather they entrain inlet air coming through the perforated wall sections neighboring the spin air outlets. Thus, the jet impulse imparts a high stability to the inlet air jets.

Abstract: An off-premises cable television interdiction apparatus provides a microprocessor controller for controlling and switching one or more variable frequency voltage controlled oscillators. The variable frequency oscillators selectively jam only unauthorized premium programming transmitted on particular channels of a broadband signal in the clear from a headend to a subscriber. The microprocessor controller controls the variable frequency oscillators to hop between jamming frequencies and jam particular channels under control from the headend. A frequency calibration routine is executed periodically upon power-up to determine gain parameters for the oscillators. A heterodyned variable frequency oscillator may be provided for the interdiction system which moves the frequency of the variable frequency oscillator out of the television band and mixes the variable frequency oscillator output with a fixed local oscillator output to provide a jamming signal that falls in the television band. Gain control using a heterodyned oscillator may instead be provided for use in the interdiction system which uses one channel of the broadband signal as the jamming signal. Automatic gain control may also instead be provided for controlling the attenuation of a variable attenuator in accordance with a gain function determined by interpolation and previously stored in memory by a calibration routine executed periodically or upon power-up. The calibration routine may run concurrently with a frequency calibration routine for controlling the frequency of the jamming signal.

Abstract: Dans un procédé d'épuration d'eaux résiduaires chargées essentiellement de matières organiques, on effectue l'évaporation et la condensation des eaux résiduaires, à l'intérieur d'un circuit primaire, et d'un fluide secondaire, à l'intérieur d'un circuit secondaire fermé, séparé du circuit primaire et renfermant un condenseur, les eaux résiduaires étant évaporées par échauffement au contact du fluide secondaire, lui-même réchauffé préalablement dans le condenseur, et ledit fluide secondaire étant évaporé dans le circuit secondaire, par condensation de la vapeur des eaux résiduaires. La vapeur des eaux résiduaires est alors envoyée dans un cyclone et l'on soutire la solution de fond concentrée qui se forme lors de l'évaporation des eaux résiduaires. Cette dernière étape s'effectue en fonction de la température de surchauffe du fluide secondaire, sur la partie en pression du condenseur, lorsque celle-ci dépasse une valeur de consigne, cependant qu'en même temps, les eaux résiduaires sont introduites dans le circuit primaire, en fonction du niveau de remplissage. Il est ainsi possible de mettre en ÷uvre un procédé en continu, suivant une technique simple, pour le traitement d'eaux résiduaires ainsi chargées de matières organiques.

Abstract: The invention relates to hybrid proteins consisting of partial sequences of the malaria antigens HRPII and SERP. The HRPII sequence has already proved to be protective in the monkey model (EP-A2-0 315 085), use being made in the present invention, just like in the previous attempt at protection - of a C-terminal region of 189 amino acids. SERP was identified with the aid of an antiserum against a protective protein band (EP-A1-0 283 882); the partial sequence used (amino acids (AA) 631-892 or 630-764) contains at least two T-cell epitopes (Roussilhon et al. (1990), Immunol. Letters 25, 149-154). In preferred embodiments, further regions, containing T-cell epitopes, of other P. falciparum proteins such as the merozoite surface antigen I (MSA I or else 195 kd antigen), amino acids from 100 to 300, are incorporated (Crisanti et al. (1988), Science 240, 324-326). A property common to all the hybrid components is that they represent highly conserved peptide sequences. Protection against a malaria infection is generated by inoculation with abovementioned hybrid proteins.
