Abstract: PCT No. PCT/DE95/01048 Sec. 371 Date Feb. 11, 1997 Sec. 102(e) Date Feb. 11, 1997 PCT Filed Aug. 9, 1995 PCT Pub. No. WO96/05491 PCT Pub. Date Feb. 22, 1996The force or extension sensor has a measuring capacitor (Mk) whose comb-like, interlocking electrode structures (Es1, Es2) can be adjusted in parallel with one another by two attachment points (Bp1, Bp2) as a function of the force (F) or the extension (E) to be measured. The total capacitance of the measuring capacitor (Mk) is determined by a parallel circuit having individual electrode pairs. A change in the total capacitance of the measuring capacitor (Mk) which is brought about by a change in the distances (d1) between the electrodes provides information on the force (F) or the extension ( epsilon ) to be measured. A change in the distances between the electrodes as a result of temperature-related extension is at least largely avoided by virtue of the fact that the attachment points (Bp1, Bp2) lie on a junction line (V1) which runs parallel to the direction of the electrodes (E1, E2) and is oriented at an angle ( alpha ) of 40 DEG  to 50 DEG , preferably 45 DEG , with respect to the direction of the force (F) or the extension ( epsilon ) to be measured.

Abstract: A secure digital content delivery system includes a content provider and a content user. The content provider delivers encrypted content to the content user in response to delivery requests. The content provider generates encryption algorithms on the fly and encrypts the content prior to delivery, using a different encryption algorithm and key for each content delivery. The content user subsequently requests access permission from the content provider, to access the encrypted content. The content provider grants access by generating an executable decryption module on the fly and providing the executable decryption module to the content user. The content user decrypts the content and accesses it on the fly, using the executable decryption module. The accessed content is then re-encrypted using a different encryption algorithm and key, to preserve the integrity of the secure content delivery system. The content delivery system uses a programmably configurable protocol parsing engine to encrypt and decrypt content.

Date Apr. 2, 1998The invention concerns an HPLC-based device and method for separating high complex substance mixtures. Plant and microbial extracts are high complex substance mixtures. They contain large amounts of extremely polar and non-polar materials. In principle, said mixtures can be separated by using a chromatic method. However, separation with existing chromatographic devices, for instance HPLC installations, is extremely time-consuming. The invention seeks to create a HPLC installation that separates fully automatically high complex substances in a very short time in such a way that said substances are broken down into their components in an almost pure state and can then be fed into a test system. To this end, said HPLC-based device comprises separation column units (A, F),fractionating column units (E, G), detector units (7, and 20, 21), pumping units (B, C, D) and fraction collecting units. These units, including all separating or fractionating columns, are interconnected and controlled by multiple way valves and by a computer unit that ensures the software-controlled operational interaction of the device.
