Abstract: A device for measuring and controlling the spring contacts (2) of a connector block (3) comprising a number of measuring pins (1) each being positioned and biassed such that they can be simultaneously inserted into and withdrawn from a number of cavities of a connector block (3) and in or out the spring contacts (2), if any, present in these. When engaging a spring contact (2) the related measuring pin (1) will be displaced in a way depending on the forces exerted by the spring contact (2) on it. By measuring the displacement of the pin (1) said forces can be determined and by this wether the related connector block (3) satisfies the demands set to it.

Abstract: The present invention provides a dye diffusion transfer imaging process for the production of retained images, comprising the steps of: 
- applying an alkaline aqueous processing composition to an image-wise exposed photographic element that contains in operative association with an alkali-permeable silver halide hydrophilic colloid emulsion layer a redox-activatable compound that initially is immobile in an aqueous alkali-permeable colloid medium and is capable of releasing under alkaline conditions in reduced state a diffusible dye moiety, 
- providing a silver halide developing agent in said photographic element for being present therein during application of said alkaline aqueous processing composition to cause as a function of development of said silver halide emulsion layer the release of said diffusible dye moiety from said redox-activatable compound upon reduction thereof at the non-silver image areas or the loss of the capacity of said redox-activatable compound of releasing said diffusible dye moiety upon oxidation of said redox-activatable compound at the silver image areas, and  
- allowing diffusion of said diffusible dye moiety into an extracting liquid or disposable receptor medium and leaving in said photographic element a silver image as well as an UV-absorbing dye image retained congruously with said silver image, 
said redox-activatable compound comprising at least two dye units together absorbing radiation all over the range between 300 and 450 nm. The present invention also provides a photographic silver halide element comprising such a redox-activatable compound.

Abstract: Un dispositif d'allumage (4) est proposé pour des moteurs à combustion interne comprenant une chambre de précombustion (7) au niveau de la bougie d'allumage (5) et une connexion (8) servant de ligne d'étranglement entre la chambre de précombustion et la chambre de combustion (6) du moteur. Le but de l'invention est de créer un dispositif d'allumage qui permette l'utilisation de bougies ordinaires d'allumage avec uniquement des modifications structurales minimes. Pour ce faire, la ligne d'étranglement (8) est au moins aussi longue que la distance (14) entre l'électrode d'allumage et le début de la ligne d'étranglement. On peut ainsi utiliser des bougies d'allumage peu coûteuses, fabriquées en série, l'écoulement dans plusieurs conduites de gaz amène le mélange à l'électrode centrale de la bougie ou un large canal de passage se rétrécit à proximité de l'électrode centrale, et l'on obtient grâce à un effet de tuyère de Laval une vitesse élevée dans le sens de sortie de l'écoulement, ce qui fait que le gaz allumé provoque une combustion rapide et complète du mélange principal.

Filed: 1987-02-13
Abstract: An impact limit stop or crash stop control in a disc memory drive which sets and maintains the limits of movement and the stopping distance of a linear or rotary actuator arm structure (3).

Abstract: An abrasive tipped rotating cutting tool for use in removing abnormal deposits within a patient's vessels is described. The tip (12) is preferably covered with a material such as diamond grit (14), and rotated at high speed to pulverize any abnormal deposits contained within the vessel. 
     In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the tip is ellipsoidal in shape, and the coarseness of the abrasive material on the tip is varied from most coarse (60) adjacent the distal end (64) of the tip to finest (56) adjacent the portion (56) of the tip which has the widest diameter. Preferably, there is no abrasive on the widest part of the tip in order to prevent the tip from injuring a patient's vessel in the event that the tip is allowed to remain in once place for an extended period of time. In addition, there may be radial openings (72) formed in the tip which permit water to be pumped therethrough in order to act as a lubricant for assisting in the cutting action of the tip. 
     The invention may use either an atraumatic tip or a preformable guide wire (30) to guide the cutting tip through a patient's vessel.
