Patent EP-0553401-B1 (EP)
Inventor: ZINK ROGER
IPC: A01N1/02

Abstract: The invention relates to a perfusion apparatus (1) for isolated organs (2), which apparatus comprises at least one reservoir (3) for the perfusate, and also a pump (4) which draws the perfusate from the reservoir (3) by suction and pumps it into the isolated organ (2). With known perfusion apparatuses of this type, only measurements under so-called constant flow conditions can be carried out, since only the flow through the isolated organ (2) can be adjusted via the delivery rate of the pump (4). The resulting pressure depends on the characteristics of the organ (2). According to the invention, the perfusion apparatus is developed in such a way that both constant flow and constant pressure measurements are possible in each pressure range of physiological interest. For this purpose, a control line (8) branches from a line (6) downstream of the pump (4), against the end (9) of which control line (8) a closure part is pressed sealingly with a defined force. When a specific pressure in the line (8) is exceeded, this closure part falls back and this permits the passage of perfusate from the end (9) of the line (8). In a preferred embodiment, the closure part is an elastic membrane (10) behind which there is a hollow space (15) whose internal pressure produces the defined force on the membrane (10). The emerging perfusate can be returned to the reservoir (3) via a return line (14). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The time required for the program verify and erase verify operations can be shortened. The change of threshold values of memory cells can be suppressed even if the write and erase operations are executed repetitively. After the program and erase operations, whether the operations were properly executed can be judged simultaneously for all bit lines (BL) basing upon a change, after the pre-charge, of the potential at each bit line (BL), without changing the column address. Even if a write bit error occurs, no write error is issued so long as the number of bits can be relieved by an ECC circuit.

Abstract: This invention pertains to a synthetic adhesive composition for use in aqueous environments. The composition comprises polypeptide chains having an  alpha -helical structure in aqueous environments and capable of cohesive and adhesive interactions. The polypeptide chains comprise polar and apolar amino acids, the apolar and polar amino acids being arranged to define apolar and polar vertical spiraling stripes on the helix surface. The apolar stripes allow the polypeptide chains to aggregate into superhelical structures and the polar stripes allow interchain crosslinking within and between the superhelical structures.

Abstract: The relay has a basic body (1) forming a magnet system chamber (4) and at least one contact chamber (5, 6) by means of side walls (3) perpendicular to the base and a separating wall (2). The contact chambers (5, 6) are closed at the top and open at the bottom while the magnet system chamber (4) is open at the top and largely closed at the bottom. Hence the contact components are fitted from the bottom and the magnetic system from the top of the basic body. An armature (13) is arranged on the face of the coil (10) opposite the separating wall and its switching movement is transferred to the contact springs (17, 18, 20, 21) via a flat slide (24) fitted in the bottom region. This design provides very long insulation paths between the contact components and the coil.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wire section of a paper machine with two endless wires (mesh belts) (2, 3) - a first wire (2) and a second wire (3) - which together form, on a part of their periphery, a double-wire zone; having at least one supporting body (1), arranged in the region of the twin-wire zone and having a supporting surface, at least a part of the supporting surface supporting the first wire (2) on its inner surface and the second wire (3) on its outer surface. Pressure elements (10) exert pressure on the inner surface of the second wire in the region in which the latter is supported by the supporting surface, the pressure elements bringing the pressure to bear only at specific points (pressure points), so that pressure-free regions also remain. The pressure points are distributed over the whole wire width. The supporting bodies (1) are designed as a forming cylinder (1a) or belt (1c). The supporting surface formed by the latter preferably rotates. Rails (foils, strips) (10), roll doctors (14) or concavely designed pressing shoes (15) can be used as pressure elements. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Système à deux bus, permettant (1) de faire communiquer des paires de contacts placés au niveau de points d'accès d'un véhicule tels qu'une porte ou un coffre de véhicule, avec un contrôleur central (14); et (2) de transmettre du courant servant à exciter les actionneurs (18, 24) afin qu'ils exécutent des ordres respectifs tels qu'un verrouillage normal ou un sur-verrouillage. Les paires de contacts (18, 24) fournissent des entrées aux signaux de commande tout en produisant des signaux d'état relatifs aux différents points à surveiller. Les paires de contacts sont connectées à des sorties individuelles d'un compteur (14). Chaque paire de contact reçoit séquentiellement une impulsion unique provenant d'un train d'impulsions produit par le contrôleur central. Si une paire de contacts est occupée ou fermée lorsqu'elle reçoit une impulsion, l'impulsion va provoquer une mise sous charge coïncidente d'un bus. Le contrôleur central (14) contrôle l'état de charge des bus et peut déterminer l'état des contacts en fonction du fait qu'une coïncidence existe ou n'existe pas entre une impulsion et un bus respectivement chargé. Lorsque les états des contacts ont été déterminés, le contrôleur central accède à une table à consulter et applique ensuite les ordres respectifs en excitant l'un des relais multiples qui définissent une trajectoire du flux de courant vers les actionneurs respectifs.

Abstract: A device converts combustible liquid fuel into converted fuel having a smaller proportion of vapor and a larger proportion of microscopic fuel droplets and mixes the converted fuel with air to convert more converted fuel to vapor. A vacuum chamber (22) has a cylindrical housing wall (16) with at least one fuel inlet (28) therein and a fuel outlet (86) offset from the inlet (28). An eccentrically mounted cylindrical rotor (34) is rotatably mounted within the housing wall (16) and has one or more radial slots with a rectangular vane (76) slidably received in each slot. Converted fuel from the outlet (86) and air are supplied to a large mixing chamber to slow the air and allow for thorough mixing with the converted fuel. An electronic fuel management control module (EFM) provides an output signal to the fuel metering device to control the flow of the fuel in the convertor (10). An electronic fuel injector control has a rotor shaft (104) to provide first periodic signal pulses responsive to its angular rotational position. A sensor (116) provides second periodic signal pulses responsive to the desired angular position of the engine crankshaft (112). An electric motor (66) connected to the rotor shaft (104), when running, provides a blocking signal to the engine sensor electronics (120) to block the signal pulses from the fuel conversion signal device so that the fuel injectors (28) are activated only in response to the crankshaft pulses.

Abstract: An electrical apparatus switch (1) contains a switching rocker (3), which is mounted in an insulating housing (2), for switching on and off manually (for manual connection and disconnection). By means of an operating end (16) which enters into the housing interior (11), the switching rocker (3) moves a contact link (4) (depending on the pivoting position) between its contact closed position and contact open position. The contact link (4) is electrically connected in series with a contact spring (5) which can be released thermally and thus acts as overcurrent protection. The contact spring (5) can move between its contact position and its open position. The contact spring (5) is mechanically prestressed in the direction of its open position. In the event of an overcurrent, it is moved from its contact position into its open position by means of a thermal tripping element. It is returned from its open position into its contact position again by pivoting the switching rocker against the mechanical prestressing in the rocking direction (66) of the contact spring (5).
