Abstract: Une machine (13) pour redresser et aligner des bouteilles comprend une trémie (11) de chargement de bouteilles en vrac dont la paroi latérale interne est équipée de palettes (12) pour pousser les bouteilles sur un guide hélicoïdal (14) s'étendant le long de la paroi interne. A l'extrémité du guide, les bouteilles (13) sont déchargées à l'intérieur d'un compartiment circulaire (15) ménagé autour de la périphérie du bord supérieur de la trémie d'où les bouteilles sont acheminées dans des berceaux (21) posés sur un support (18) interrompu pour laisser tomber les bouteilles à l'intérieur de convoyeurs de redressage (22) tournant solidairement avec les berceaux. Des bouteilles sont déchargées des convoyeurs à l'intérieur de compartiments périphériques d'un anneau (20) tournant coaxialement autour de la trémie. Le nombre des compartiments formés dans l'anneau est un multiple du nombre des berceaux (21) et des convoyeurs (22), et la vitesse de rotation de l'anneau (20) est supérieure à la vitesse de rotation des berceaux (21), ce qui donne une vitesse périphérique supérieure au pas entre deux compartiments consécutifs pour chaque rotation du berceau correspondant au déchargement d'une bouteille de chaque berceau. La trémie et l'anneau sont entraînés par un moteur commun au moyen de mécanismes et des engrenages.

Abstract: An MPEG1 real time encoder board (213) generates index data as an evaluation value
representing the complexity of a picture. A scene change parameter representing the
degree of a scene change occurring in the picture is then calculated from the index data.
The scene change parameter is associated with a scene change pointer, that is, position
information on a location of the picture in which a scene change occurs to a degree
indicated by the scene change parameter. The scene change parameter and the scene
change pointer are recorded as an index in an index file. On the other hand, an MPEG
system stream output by the MPEG1 real time encoder board (213) is stored in an
MPEG file separated from the index file. 
With the funtions described above, a desired scene can be searched for with ease.

Abstract: Oligonucleotides and other biomolecules are immobilized in high density on solid substrates through covalent forces using either a permanent thioether bond, or a chemoselectively reversible disulfide bond to a surface thiol. Substrates which have hydroxyl groups on their surfaces can be first silanized with a trichlorosilane containing 2-20 carbon atoms in its hydrocarbon backbone, terminating in a protected thiol group. The oligonucleotides or other biomolecules are first connected to a tether consisting of a hydrocarbon or polyether chain of 2-20 units in length which terminates in a thiol group. This thiol may be further modified with a halobenzylic-bifunctional water soluble reagent which allows the conjugate to be immobilized onto the surface thiol group by a permanent thioether bond. Alternatively, the oligonucleotide-tether-thiol group can be converted to a pyridyldisulfide functionality which attaches to the surface thiol by a chemoselectively reversible disulfide bond. The permanently bound oligonucleotides are immobilized in high density compared to other types of thiol functionalized silane surfaces and to the avidin-biotin method.
