Abstract: Apparatus for cross-correlation frequency domain fluorometry and/or phosphorimetry in which means are provided for sequentially performing runs of the cross correlation frequency domain fluorometry and/or phosphorimetry at sequentially differing first and second frequencies. The intensities of signal responses of the runs are detected at the respective cross-correlation frequency in each run. The detection of the signal response is prolonged in each run until an integrated signal with a specified standard deviation has been acquired at each of the differing runs. Preferably the sequential runs are automatically executed by a program. Also, the waveforms sensed by deriving the resultant signal response in each run are folded. That is: corresponding segments of the waveforms are superimposed to obtain an average waveform value for each run having an increased signal to noise ratio over the individual waveform segments. Also, preferably, a software-created variable frequency digital filter is used to filter signal responses at the cross-correlation frequency. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An automated demolding apparatus for mechanically separating contact lens mold portions of a mold assembly. The mold assembly includes a first front mold portion having a central mold section with a surrounding flange, and a corresponding second back mold portion also having a central mold section with a surrounding flange, with a molded contact lens being formed between the front and back mold portions. The demolding apparatus includes restraining fingers positioned between and on opposite sides of the spaced flanges of the first and second mold portions and against the flange of the first mold portion. A separating fixture includes separating fingers positioned between and on opposite sides of the spaced flanges of the first and second mold portions and against the flange of the second mold portion. Before demolding, the second mold portion is irradiated by a laser beam, which is absorbed thereby to cause a substantial temperature gradient between the second mold portion and the contact lens being demolded. The temperature gradient causes a differential expansion and shifting of the surface of the heated second mold portion relative to the surface of the lens to lessen the adhesion therebetween to assist in separation of the mold portions, while leaving the lens in the first mold portion. During demolding, the separating fixture is subjected to a substantially vertical prying motion relative to the restraining fingers to separate the second mold portion from the first mold portion.

Abstract: The invention relates to a galvanosorptive reaction cell with closed substance circulation for the conversion of low temperature heat, preferably of waste heat into useful electrical work. The reaction cell and the accompanying isobaric substance circuit are presented. The galvanosorptive reaction process inside the cell is carried out polytropically with an electrostatic auxiliary voltage, which is superimposed onto the inherent voltage of the cell. In this way, not only free but, with cooling of the reaction system, also substance-bound reaction work can be extracted from the reaction system. The electrical energy yield and the power density of galvanosorptive reaction cell are thereby increased many times over.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for bleaching pulp with a gaseous bleaching reagent. The pulp (18) is intensively mixed in the presence of the bleaching reagent within an upstream vessel comprising a fluffer/blower (12). Next, the pulp is agitated in the presence of the bleaching reagent within an intermediate vessel comprising an agitated mixer reactor (14). The pulp is then discharged to a downstream vessel, comprising a porous bed reactor (16), where it is further reacted with the bleaching reagent. The concentration of the gaseous bleaching reagent supplied to each vessel is separately controlled which, in combination with a controlled pulp residence time within at least the agitated mixer reactor and the porous bed reactor, results in an economy of energy utilization, a minimization of pulp particle damage due to mechanical mixing, and uniformity of pulp bleaching.

Abstract: The method involves using beam model where none linear variations in the velocity of sound with height are accounted for using a parabolic term in the equation for the expansion of foreign particles in air. A technical process for measurement of the propagation of sound in air is determined which takes into account the wind direction and velocity as well as the air calmness. Determination of the meteorological attenuation at a plotted point, A, with respect to sound emitted from a sound source at another point, Q, assumes that the sound beam travels with a parabolic path from Q to A. Equipment for the measurement of various physical quantities such as heights, distances, sound paths and ambient conditions are needed as are processor, storage and analysis program.

Abstract: During discharge, heat transfer rate depends on fan speed, controlled by altering the fan motor voltage. A thermostat monitoring the ambient temperature cuts the fan(s) out at the applied setting (Tc), and in at a slightly lower value (Tl). As temperature recovers (AB), fan motor voltage is raised from 170 in 3x20v steps, each lasting 5 minutes, the final step being extended if necessary to achieve the set level (Tc). If the tariff so provides, a continued fall (AE) to a lower temperature (T2), above the overnight setting (T3), is countered by partial re-energising of the heater elements. Each night's charge is determined according to the percentage charge remaining the previous evening, as calculated from fan running times and speeds.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for automatically identifying a program broadcast by a radio station or by a television channel, or recorded on a medium, by adding an inaudible encoded message to the sound signal of the program, the message identifying the broadcasting channel or station, the program, and/or the exact date. In one embodiment the sound signal is transmitted via an analog-to-digital converter to a data processor enabling frequency components to be split up, enabling the energy in some of the frequency components to be altered in a predetermined manner to form an encoded identification message, and with the output from the data processor being connected via a digital-to-analog converter to an audio output for broadcasting or recording the sound signal. In another embodiment, an analog bandpass filter is employed to separate a band of frequencies from the sound signal so that energy in the separated band may be thus altered to encode the sound signal. The invention is particularly applicable to measuring the audiences of programs that are broadcast by radio or television, or that are recorded.

Abstract: A method for rapid heat treatment, quenching and aging of an article includes placing the article in a fluidized bed and conveying the article through the bed. Heat treatment, quenching and aging of the part can be done in less than two hours using this method. The method also includes removing fluidizing media from the article as the article is removed from the fluidized bed. An elevator is used to remove the article from the fluidized bed. The elevator may include a conveyor for moving the article into another fluidized bed. The article can then be placed into the second fluidized bed and conveyed through that bed. Each fluidized bed is controlled so that a specific heat treatment can be applied to the article by the fluidized bed. The fluidized bed can be used as a portion of an automated production line. The retort of the fluidized bed includes a system for recycling the air passed through the fluidizing media in the furnace. The recycling system includes a fan positioned above the fluidizing media in the retort, a filter for removing any fluidizing media within the recycled air, and piping for reintroducing the recycled air to the retort. The heaters are placed within the retort and include heat exchangers for heating the incoming combustion air. The heaters are rigidly attached at one end and fit within sleeves attached to another portion of the retort. The heater tubes can be replaced with refrigeration tubes or units so that articles may be quenched.
