Abstract: An intraocular lens surgically positioned in the anterior chamber and to be used in addition to the natural lens to correct the refraction. The lens is fixated by iris stromal support, comprising an optical portion of inner concave and outer convex shape and a side support portion which has one or more pairs of pincerlike extensions for holding a portion of iris tissue. The design provides safe clearance away from the vital structures both anteriorly and posteriorly. This technique of stromal iris support permits full pupil motility. Lack of any postoperative decentration allows the system to be used for myopia, hyperopia, presbyopia or astigmatism. A non-transparent, light-impermeable ring may be incorporated to prevent glare or edge effects. The lens provides high predictability of the precalculated optical power.

Abstract: Pour les distributeurs de carburant connus qui comportent des ouvertures de réception pour des soupapes d'injection de carburant, qui sont reliées à une conduite d'alimentation principale, la fabrication est coûteuse et il existe le danger que lors du démarrage à chaud d'un moteur à combustion interne muni d'un distributeur de carburant de ce type, il y ait des bulles de vapeur entraînant des problèmes de démarrage du moteur à combustion interne. De plus, le montage des soupapes à carburant dans la position angulaire prévue n'est pas garanti. Le nouveau type de distributeur de carburant (1), facile à réaliser à partir d'un produit semi-fini profilé, comporte un volume de carburant sans bulle de vapeur tout autour de la soupape d'injection de carburant (3), permettant, lors du démarrage à chaud du moteur à combustion interne, l'injection d'un carburant sans bulle de vapeur qui présente une bonne aptitude à l'allumage, par l'intermédiaire des soupapes d'injection de carburant (3). Selon l'invention, le distributeur de carburant s'adapte tout particulièrement aux dispositifs d'injection de carburant de moteurs à combustion interne à allumage commandé et à pression du mélange air/carburant.

Abstract: In parallel-operating additive scramblers, a predefined pseudo-random sequence of length L is generated in a word generator comprising an N-stage shift register. In order to obtain more than N parallel pseudo-random sequences, the word generator is connected to a network in which further pseudo-random sequences with a different phase angle are produced through modulo-2 additions of existing pseudo-random sequences. The execution of the combination operations limits the maximum transmittable bit string frequency. The pseudo-random sequence is stored in full in a memory (S). The required pseudo-random sequence is generated through shift operations in the ring memory (RS). A ring memory (RS) implemented as a feedback shift register (SR) is used as a memory (S), the outputs of which are connected in each case to an input of an exclusive-OR gate in which in each case one pseudo-random sequence is modulo-2 added to a sub-stream of a serial data stream converted to parallel. The sub-streams are then parallel-to-serial converted in a multiplexer. Data streams with a higher bit string frequency are possible. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A bone-related protein named OSF-8 which is obtained from bone tissue of a mammal including mouse or human, and a process for its production. This protein is a novel naturally occurring mammal protein which belongs to a group of sulfatases. OSF-8 degrades the sulfate groups of the sugar chains of proteoglycan, which makes up the cartilage matrix, during the replacement of cartilage into bone tissue at the stage of osteogenesis. OSF-8 can be used as an agent for treating bone metabolic diseases, and its high organ specificity for bones enables its use as a diagnostic reagent for bone metabolic diseases. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A relay has a static core arranged inside the coil (12), and a swivelling armature arranged at one end of the coil that forms, together with two pole shoes (31, 32) at the other end of the coil, working air gaps with respect to one end of the core. The armature has two pole plate sections (31a, 32a) arranged in the extension of both pole shoes in a common plane outside of the coil and parallel to the axis of the coil, where they are coupled to one side of a four-pole permanent magnet. Both opposite poles of the permanent magnet are coupled to a flux plate which in turn forms a feedback to the core. With this system a polarized relay is obtained whose magnetic cross-sections can be very easily optimized and whose switching characteristic can be easily adjusted by balancing the permanent magnet. In addition, it is possible to easily separate the magnetic system from contact systems by means of appropriate insulating walls.
