Abstract: Source de tension de référence à barrière de potentiel qui comporte une première branche de courant comprenant un premier transistor (T1) à effet de champ, une seconde branche de courant comprenant un second transistor (T2) à effet de champ, une résistance de référence (RRF) disposée en série avec l'un des transistors (T1, T2) à effet de champ, et un régulateur de niveau de tension destiné à coupler les grilles arrière (BG1, BG2) des transistors (T1, T2) à effet de champ aux grilles (G1, G2) des transistors (T1, T2) à effet de champ, ce qui réduit les tensions grille-source des transistors (T1, T2) à effet de champ. En résultat, la tension de sortie fournie par la source de tension de référence à barrière de potentiel peut être inférieure à ce qu'elle est habituellement.

Abstract: The present thermoformed containers are recloseable and resealable. This is accomplished primarily by providing a thermoformed container with a threaded neck and the use of a conventional type of closure on the threaded neck of the thermoformed container. The threads are on the neck and preferably also on an outwardly extending peripheral edge on the neck. This outwardly extending peripheral edge is created in thermoform molding. The neck preferably also is in the form of a two or more ply structure and in a further preferred embodiment the neck is reinforced by the closure. The closure in the embodiment of external threads on the neck has a reinforcing plug. In this embodiment the reinforcing plug fits into the neck adjacent the inner wall of the neck while the threads of the closure contact the exterior wall of the neck. In the embodiment of internal threads on the neck the closure can have a skirt which is in close contact with the exterior wall of the neck. This will likewise reinforce the neck. The neck can be of many shapes from cylindrical to approaching a rectangular shape.

Title: superporous hydrogel composites having fast swelling, high mechanical strenght, and superabsorbent properties
Inventor: PARK KINAM
IPC: A61K31/765
Filed: 1998-05-08
Granted: 2005-08-03
Abstract: A superporous hydrogel composite is formed by polymerizing one or more ethylenically-unsaturated monomers, and a multiolefinic crosslinking agent, in the presence of particles of a disintegrant and a blowing agent. The disintegrant, which rapidly absorbs water, serves to greatly increase the mechanical strength of the superporous hydrogel and significantly shorten the time required to absorb water and swell. Superporous hydrogel composites prepared by this method have an average pore size in the range of 10 mum to 3,000 mum. Preferred particles of disintegrant include natural and synthetic charged polymers, such as crosslinked sodium carboxymethylcellulose, crosslinked sodium starch glycolate, and crosslinked polyvinylpyrrolidone. The blowing agent is preferably a compound that releases gas bubbles upon acidification, such as NaHCO3. Improved hydrogel composites formed without a blowing agent are also provided.

Abstract: Aryl-substituted and aryl and (3-oxo-1-propenyl)-substituted benzopyran, benzothiopyran, 1,2-dihydroquinoline, and 5,6-dihydronaphthalene derivatives have retinoid negative hormone and/or antagonist-like biological activities. The invented RAR antagonists can be administered to mammals, including humans, for the purpose of preventing or diminishing action of RAR agonists on the bound receptor sites. Specifically, the RAR agonists are administered or coadministered with retinoid drugs to prevent or ameliorate toxicity or side effects caused by retinoids or vitamin A or vitamin A precursors. The retinoid negative hormones can be used to potentiate the activities of other retinoids and nuclear receptor agonists. For example, the retinoid negative hormone called AGN 193109 effectively <CHEM> increased the effectiveness of other retinoids and steroid hormones in in vitro transactivation assays. Additionally, transactivation assays can be used to identify compounds having negative hormone activity. These assays are based on the ability of negative hormones to down-regulate the activity of chimeric retinoid receptors engineered to possess a constitutive transcription activator domain.

Abstract: A continuous flow filter changer (10) for a fluid having a filter carrier assembly (36) for intermittent sliding transition displacements in a filter channel to align adjacent filters (38) thereon successively with a filter aperture in the flow passage (28). The duration of each such transition is substantially less than that between transitions. A ring shaped seal (46) sealingly connects between the flow passage (28) upstream thereof and a filter (38) aligned with said aperture to prevent fluid flow except through said filter (38). The clearance for sliding between the filter carrier assembly (36) and the filter channel is controlled to allow for such displacements while limiting the fluid leakage from the filter channel during a single transition to a predetermined level.

Abstract: A method of detecting leakage through a gaseous fuel admission valve (10) of a dual fuel engine (40) including at least one such gaseous fuel admission valve and a gaseous fuel shut off valve (62) includes determining a liquid fuel rate when the engine is operating in a liquid fuel mode and the gaseous fuel shut off valve is closed. The gaseous fuel shut off valve is thereafter opened while the engine is operating in the liquid fuel mode. A liquid fuel rate is determined after the gaseous fuel shut off valve is opened and the liquid fuel rate determined before opening of the gaseous fuel shut off valve is compared with the liquid fuel rate determined after opening of the gaseous fuel shut off valve. A detonation level within the engine cylinder may also be checked to determine if such detonation level exceeds a predetermined level indicative of gaseous fuel leakage. The detonation level check may also be utilized in a spark-ignited engine.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a process for preparing hydroxyl-containing polymers, in particular for preparing polytetrahydrofuran with terminal hydroxyl groups, from the corresponding acyloxy-containing polymers by transesterification with alcohols in the presence of an alkali metal- or alkaline earth metal-containing catalyst, which entails the appropriate acyloxy-containing polymer being introduced together with the alcohol and the catalyst into a first prereactor (I) and converted therein at least partly to the hydroxyl-containing polymer, and the reaction solution being fed into the upper zone (IIa) of a distillation column (II) into whose lower zone (IIb) alcohol in vapor phase is additionally fed. This involves a phase exchange at the coherent and the disperse phase at the transition from the prereactor to the distillation column. Preferably, in addition to the first prereactor, a further 3 prereactors are used which serve as holdup reactors.

In the method the paper web (W) is passed from the wire part (200) into the press section (300) in order to press water out of the paper web (W), and after the press section (300), the paper web (W) is dried in the dryer section (400) and coated/pigmented in the coating section (500), dried in an after-dryer section (600) and calendered in a calender (600), and reeled in a reel-up (800). The paper web (W) is made of layers in the Z-direction so that the desired distributions of additives and fillers are obtained in the different layers in the Z-direction of the paper web (W), and the paper web (W) is calendered in at least one calendering nip, which maintains or at least substantially retains the porosity of the web preceding the calendering. The invention also concerns a paper machine, most appropriately for manufacture of glossy and porous paper for color powder based printing. The paper machine comprises a headbox (100), a wire part (200), a press section (300), a dryer section (400), a coating section (500), an after-dryer section (600), a calender (700), and a reel-up (800).
