Title: Bituminous emulsions
Inventor: CHIRINOS MARIA LUISA
IPC: C08L95/00
Filed: 1985-04-26
Granted: 1989-01-19
Abstract: An HIPR emulsion of bitumen in water is prepared by a method which comprises directly mixing 70 to 98% by volume of bitumen having a viscosity in the range 200 to 500,000 mPa.s at the mixing temperature with 30 to 2% by volume of an aqueous solution of an emulsifying surfactant, percentages being expressed as percentages by volume of the total mixture. Mixing is effected under low shear conditions in the range 10 to 1,000 reciprocal seconds in such manner that an emulsion is formed comprising highly distorted bitumen droplets having mean droplet diameters in the range 2 to 50 micron separated by thin films of water. The emulsions can be cut back to provide stable emulsions of lower bitumen content which are useful in road-making and the formation of protective coatings.

Title: Method and apparatus for maldi analysis
Inventor: HILLENKAMP FRANZ
IPC: H01J49/16
Filed: 1997-09-19
Granted: 2000-10-05
Abstract: Matrix assisted laser desorption/ionization is performed in a manner to thermalize large analyte ions in a plume of desorbed material for spectroscopic analysis. The thermalized ions have a low or zero mean velocity and are presented at a well-defined instant in time, reducing artifacts and sharpening the spectral peaks. In one embodiment the light is delivered to a matrix or sample holder having a cover, baffle or compartment. The baffle or compartment impedes or contains a plume of desorbed material and the analyte undergoes collisions to lower its mean velocity and directionality. Thus "thermalized" the analyte ions are passed to a mass analysis instrument. In a preferred embodiment an optical fiber butts up against a thin transparent plate on which the specimen resides, with the matrix side in a vacuum acceleration chamber. A mechanical stage moves the specimen in both the x- and y- directions to select a point on the specimen which is to receive the radiation. The use of a fiber optic illuminator allows the entire stage assembly to be subsumed essentially within the dimensions of a conventional stage. In other embodiments, a thermalizing compartment is provided in a capillary tube about the end of the illumination fiber and the sample matrix is deposited along the inner cylindrical wall of the tube, so the capillary forms a migration path to the outlet for thermalization of the desorbed analyte. In other embodiments microstructures having the shape of a small lean-to, overhang or perforated cover plate, or providing a high aspect surface texture, provide the necessary containment to promote thermalization of the released analyte. A thin layer or cover of fibrous or permeable material may also be used to thermalize the analyte before mass analysis, and in another embodiment this material may also act as the substrate. An automated instrument may include a fixed array of illumination fibers which are illuminated at different times to eject samples from a corresponding array of points on the specimen.

Filed: 1985-10-16
Granted: 1988-07-28
Abstract: (57) A surgical stapling instrument suitable for performing a gastrointestinal anastomosis is provided. The stapling instrument incorporates a staple height adjusting mechanism which enables the gap between its jaw members to be adjusted to select different staple heights to be produced when the staples are formed. Preferably, the stapling instrument includes a pair of elongate jaw members, one of which supports a staple cartridge adapted to receive at least two laterally spaced longitudinal rows of staples, and the other provided with an anvil adapted to form the staples. A pusher bar and knife assembly slidable longitudinally relative to the jaw members sequentially drives the staples from the cartridge and forms the staples against the anvil to produce a pair of laterally spaced rows in the tissue. The pusher bar and knife assembly includes a knife blade for cutting the tissue along a line between the longitudinal staple rows. A set of jaw support members is carried by the knife blade which travel along the elongate jaw members as the pusher bar and knife assembly is advanced to provide local support to the jaw members. The angular orientation of the knife blade relative to the jaw members is adjustable by the staple height adjusting mechanism to vary the vertical spacing between the jaw support members as the gap between the jaw members is varied.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of handover in a mobile communications system including base transceiver stations (BTS) and mobile stations (MS), which establish radio connection with the base transceiver stations and for which a sbuscriber class is defined based on properties other than those of the mobile terminal in such a way that some of the mobile stations belong to one subscriber class and some to at least one other suscriber class. In this method, the mobile stations (MS) measure the signals from the base transceiver stations and the base transceiver station (BTS) measures the signal level and quality of the radio connection established, and the need for handover is determined and a target base transceiver station for handover is selected based on the results of the said measurements. Characteristic of the handover method in accordance with the invention is that at least one subscriber class for handover is defined for at least one base transceiver station (BTS9) and handover to the said base transceiver station (BTS9) is only allowed for mobile stations with a subscriber class that is one of the subscriber classes specified for handover for the particular base transceiver station (BTS9) involved.
