Patent EP-0464296-A3 (EP)
Title: Installation for cutting workpieces and process for controlling the same
IPC: B23K37/00
Filed: 1990-10-08
Abstract: The supporting grate of a laser cutting machine is formed of swinging supporting arms which are swung from a horizontal supporting position to a lowered intermediate position or to a completely lowered, approximately vertical position. When the laser beam is travelling through their area, individual supporting arms are lowered to the intermediate position so as not to disturb the cutting operation, to avoid damages of the supporting arm and to prevent damages of the underside of the workpieces by reflections of the beam. Cutout pieces are continually removed by lowering the supporting arms under said pieces so that said pieces are dropped onto a conveyor belt and carried off. As soon as all pieces are cut out, all supporting arms are lowered, whereby the remaining grid is dropped onto the conveyor belt and can be carried off. A coordinated program control for the displacement of the cutting head and the movement of the supporting arms is provided.

Title: Methods and apparatus for adjusting the center of a collet
IPC: B23B31/20
Filed: 1991-01-18
Abstract: The center of a collet having a plurality of individual gripper members resiliently spaced apart in an annular array and operated on by a frustoconical surface can be adjusted by displacing some of the gripper members more than others of said gripper members parallel to the axis with which both the annular array and the frustoconical surface are nominally concentric. This causes the frustoconical surface to produce greater radial displacement of some of the gripper members, thereby shifting the center of the collet transverse to the above-mentioned axis. <IMAGE>

Title: Process for purifying immune serum globulins
IPC: C07K1/18
Filed: 1991-01-31
Abstract: A multi-step process for purifying an immune serum globulin fraction from a crude plasma protein fraction involves precipitating non-serum globulin proteins from an aqueous suspension of the crude plasma protein fraction using a protein precipitant, adding a virus-inactivating agent to the clarified immune serum globulin-containing liquid, absorbing the immune serum globulins onto a cation exchange resin and washing non-serum globulin contaminants from the resin, subjecting the eluate to ultrafiltration to concentrate the immune serum globulins and separate them from low molecular weight species, contacting the concentrate with an anion exchange resin to absorb non-serum globulin contaminants, passing the immune-serum globulins through the anion exchange resin under conditions that leave non-serum globulin contaminants bound to the resin, and subjecting the filtrate to a molecular washing step to produce a purified immune serum globulin fraction. This process results in products substantially free of active viruses and contaminating lipids, activated complements and low molecular weight peptides. In addition, the process is advantageous in terms of efficiency and adaptability to large-scale production.

Abstract: A beamsplitter holder for an interferometer such 
as that used in a Fourier transform infrared spectrometer 
has a holder body with coplanar mounting surfaces formed 
about a main opening, a beamsplitter mounted against the 
mounting surfaces, and locating surfaces on the holder body 
which may be coplanar with the mounting surfaces. The 
holder is mounted in an interferometer housing which has 
positioning surfaces formed therein which are positioned to 
mate with the locating surfaces on the holder body. When 
plungers within the interferometer housing are engaged 
against the surface of the holder opposite the locating 
surfaces, the locating surfaces are pressed into contact 
with the coplanar positioning surfaces in the 
interferometer housing to precisely locate the semi-transparent 
surface of the beamsplitter within the 
interferometer with minimal distortion of the various 
parts. The beamsplitter and an adjacent compensator disk 
may be mounted in the beamsplitter holder using clips 
positioned around the beamsplitter and compensator which 
are connected together by springs which extend through 
holes in the body of the holder. The clips apply a 
controlled pressure against the surfaces of the 
beamsplitter and the compensator to press these elements 
inwardly to hold them in place in the beamsplitter holder, 
again with minimal distortion.

Abstract: In a distributed air conditioning system capable of
controlling cooling or heating by means of a substitute
temperature detector when the room temperature detector of a
room to be air conditioned is abnormal, room temperatures
detected by the temperature detector D2 of an indoor unit 20,
the temperature detector D1 of an operation unit 30 and the
temperature detector D3 of a monitoring meter 86 for
monitoring the environment of the room 85 to be air
conditioned are monitored by a central monitoring and control
board 50 and the order of selecting the temperature detectors
used for the control of cooling or heating is determined.
When a temperature detector selected according to the
selection order is abnormal, an alarm for the abnormality is
displayed by the central monitoring and control board 50 and
a temperature detector which is the next in the selection
order is selected to control cooling or heating of the indoor
unit. By comparing temperature values detected by the
temperature detectors, a temperature detector detecting a
temperature value whose differences from other temperature
values are equal to or more than a predetermined value is
judged to be abnormal. Even when the temperature detector D2
of the indoor unit 20 becomes abnormal, it is possible to
control cooling or heating without stopping the operation of
the system due to an erroneous cooling or heating operation.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for performing retroactive backups in
a computer system using "save "  sets of information is
presented. The retroactive backup mechanism employs a
backup policy dictating that certain backups are to be
performed at set times and for set backup levels, but
subject to user-defined selection criteria so that the
backups are of a retroactive nature. One selection
criterion comprises a retroactive backup date upon which
the scheduled backup is made effective. It is selected to
correspond to the backup date of a previous backup or save
set. Alternatively, the retroactive backup date upon which
the scheduled backup is made effective is determined by
controlling the amount of data to be backed up. Thus, the
selection criterion may comprise a maximum size threshold,
selected by a user or system administrator as the amount of
data that can be backed up in an allotted backup time. The
retroactive backup copies to a new save set only data that
has not been modified or deleted since the date indicated
as the retroactive backup date.

Abstract: In a simple high speed Real-Time method and apparatus for processing
a queue in a network queue server, long packets (20) at the beginning of the queue
are processed while a pointer (80) chains down the queue to find shorter packets
(40). When a shorter packet (40) is found the pointer (80) stops and waits for a
timing threshold to be met. When the timing threshold is met the short packet is
processed until completion and then work is resumed on the long packet. The
method is implemented using a pointer (60) to identify the position in the queue that
is currently being processed, a pointer (80) to search for the shorter packets, two
registers (70,90) to hold values of the respective pointers and memory to hold the
location of the discontinued packet (20). An additional register (20) is utilized to
hold the incremented cycle processing time, and a final register (150) is used to hold
a threshold value for processing a packet. Lastly, a previous pseudo head register
(110) is also utilized when the queue is not doubly linked.

Abstract: A data structure for dynamically associating a service dependent representation with a
servant object at run time is used in a distributed object computing system that incorporates
subcontracts. Subcontracts supply different functionalities to objects. The data structure
exists before run time, and is used at run time to perform the dynamic association. An
arrangement also exists at run time. The structure comprises a server rep class representing
a single subcontract, a servant base class associated with servant objects created at run
time, and a linking mechanism to form a run time link between the server rep class and a
servant object at run time. The server rep class provides functionality unique to a
subcontract. At run time, servant objects are instantiated from the servant base class or a
more derived class. The servant object uses the functionality provided by a subcontract by
way of the linking mechanism. An arrangement exists at run time for dynamically linking a
servant object to a subcontract. Included are a servant object, a server rep object, and a
pointer from the servant object to the server rep object. Methods and apparatus allow a
servant object itself to initiate calls to deactivate itself, to determine remaining references to
itself, to revoke itself, and to get an object reference for itself. A method creates a servant
object that includes the above data structures and ability to call these functions.
