Abstract: A vent (9) is provided for securement to the top outer periphery (10B) of a frame member (10) of a window (or other aperture) and comprises a duct assembly (11A, 11B, 11C) preferably made by an extrusion process (e.g. plastics extrusion). The front end of the duct assembly includes a lateral flange (18) which can be in the form of a downstand or drip, and the flange (18) carries a sealing element (34) to sealingly engage the front vertical surface (10A) of the window frame member (10): consequently the need for a seal between the top edge (10B) of the frame (10) and the duct bottom surface (13) can be avoided so facilitating the fitment of the vent to frames (10) having top edges (10B) of different profile. The vent bottom surface (13) can be substantially planar. The vent assembly can comprise interchangeable parts.

Abstract: This invention relates to an optical head of an optical disk drive. An objective lens (6), an optical path conversion prism (5), a first relay lens (15) and a second relay lens (16) are supported separately and movably only in a tracking direction. According to this structure, the lenses and the like are moved to correct the track position error of an optical beam produced by decentering and the focal position error of the optical beam due to disk surface deflection and the change of the relative distance between the lenses. Accordingly, assembly and adjustment become easy in a simple structure and an optical head having a high resonance frequency and high speed response can be produced.

Abstract: A process and a system are disclosed for controlling the focusing of a beam of monopolar charged particles which is used, for example, to vaporize substances in vacuum coating systems. The beam (S) has a cross-sectional area (Q) in a plane (E1) transverse to the axis of the beam. Perpendicular to plane (E1) there is a plane (E2), the surface normal (R) to which indicates the direction in which the change in the cross-sectional area (Q) is to occur. According to the invention, flux density fields (B1, B2) are applied, which are parallel on opposite sides to plane (E2) but have opposing directions. As a result, the change in the focusing of the beam has essentially no effect on any deflection of the beam; that is, it is possible to control the focusing without exerting any significant effect on the deflection.

Abstract: 2.1 If train length signalling devices containing radar devices are used for clear track signalling, it has hitherto been possible for wrong signals to occur. It is the aim that such echo signals should not be processed to form speed values/train lengths which come from other vehicles for which no clear track signalling is to occur. 2.2 Echo signals can be subjected to a range selection by using a modulated radar transmitter (4) which feeds at the same time an antenna (6) directed vertically and an antenna (7) directed obliquely towards the train to be evaluated. The echo signals picked up by one antenna (6) determine the beginning and end of the train; the echo signals from the other, obliquely directed antenna (7) produce the respective train speed. 2.3 Railway safety engineering/clear track signalling. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to bispecific and oligospecific, mono- and oligovalent receptors which are prepared by genetic manipulation by fusion of DNA coding for F(ab) fragments of the antibodies of two or more different specificities, using suitable linkers. Preferably one of these specificities is directed against an epitope, which is located either on the cell membrane or in the interstitium, of a tumour-associated antigen (TAA) while the other specificities relate to high molecular or low molecular weight ligands and react, for example, with the complexons ethylenediaminetetraacetate or diethylenetriaminepentaacetate in Y90-complexed form (EDTA-Y90 or DTPA-Y90). In a particularly preferred embodiment, the binding to the complexons takes place on the complexon-receptor arm via fos-jun interaction (or else avidin-biotin interaction). Further preferred specificities have catalytic properties.

Abstract: A simple inexpensive camera (201) to be used with a film cassette (1) having a film-exposure status indicator (77) movable from an unexposed position for providing a visible indication that a filmstrip (F) within the cassette is generally unexposed, to a partly exposed position for providing a visible indication that the filmstrip is only partly exposed, and to an exposed position for providing a visible indication that exposure of the filmstrip is completed, is adapted to move the status indicator from its unexposed position to its exposed position, without stopping at its partly exposed position, substantially when film drive means (207) of the camera changes the state of the filmstrip relative to the cassette. The change of state of the filmstrip (F) relative to the cassette (1) may be accomplished in the camera (201) either by advancing the filmstrip from the cassette to expose the filmstrip or by returning the filmstrip to the cassette to safeguard the filmstrip.

Abstract: A thermal print head (20) includes a plurality, e.g., three delay shift registers (31,32,33) operating by a clock-controlled shift scan to receive dot print signals (D) from a dot print signal generating circuit (10). The delay registers (31,32,33) have a number of addresses corresponding to the number of dot print elements (21) in the printer head (20). The dot print signals (D) from the delay shift registers (31,32,33) are applied to an OR gate (34) connected to shift registers (24) for the dot print elements (21). With this construction, the shift scan cycle it is set so that t </= T/(n + 1), where T is the least print cycle under normal printing conditions and n is the number of delay shift registers (31,32,33). The real time signals are obtained by sampling an analogue wave as a digitized value and counting the number of clock pulse needed to equal this digitized value, at which time a signal is given.
