Abstract: A forklift truck has a drive wheel (3) and lateral support wheels (4, 5). Each support wheel (4, 5) is arranged in a holder (14) which is rotatably mounted on a vertical pin (17). The pin (17) is longitudinally displaceable in a bushing (18) which is permanently connected to the forklift truck and has at the other end a plurality of end-side recesses (19) which are distributed over the circumference and have different depths. At the same time, in each case, pairs of recesses (19) of the same depth are formed which, viewed in the cross-section through the pin (17), are located opposite one another in such a way that the connecting line of the two depressions (19) intersects the central axis of the pin (17). The pin (17) has a radial through-bore in which a peg (20) which protrudes on both sides out of the through-bore is arranged, the ends of the said peg being arranged in the recesses (19) of an associated pair of recesses (19). The upper end of the pin (17) projects out of the upper end of the bushing (18) and is provided with a plate (21). Between the plate (21) and a shoulder (18a) which is formed on the bushing (18), a compression spring (22) is arranged. The forklift truck can be easily matched to different operating conditions by means of the vertical adjustment of the support wheels (4, 5) which is made possible in this way. <IMAGE>

Said pump hose is inserted in the pump casing at a radial distance from a shaft of a rotor of the hose pump, a pump hose section, which is curved in the form of a part circle, being arranged around the shaft. Its cross-section alters in part during the delivery operation, with a reduction of the internal volume, the externally accessible connection ends of the pump hose being fixed in or near wall sockets or similar members of the pump casing. In said hose pump, the hose end (53) of the pump hose (50) is clamped in the wall socket (52) approximately between the internal diameter (d) of the pump casing (12) and a tangent (Q) to the inner surface (35) of the wall (36) of the pump casing through its intersection (N) with the pump diameter (D) which is approximately parallel to the central axes (M) of the wall sockets. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Conventional devices for washing patients usually comprise a water-impermeable plastic sheet (3) which can be inserted in a hospital bed (1) and whose edges are drawn upwards on all sides to form a trough and reinforced against bending-over. Washing water can be fed in or led away via a feed line (5) and an outflow (7). The plastic material normally used is PVC which, however, is difficult to sterilize because of its low temperature resistance and its low chemical stability caused by the plasticisers and moreover forms a good culture medium for pathogenic organisms, e.g. bacteria, due to its relatively high surface porosity. As a solution to this problem the invention proposes to prepare the plastic parts of the device for washing patients from a polyorganosiloxane compound or a highly crosslinked fluorinated plastic. In addition, antiseptic filters (9), preferably UV emitters, may be built into the feed line (5) and/or the outflow (7) in order to reduce the risk of infection.

Abstract: Core and shell polymeric particles are described that have microvoids in the core and one or more channels connecting the microvoids to the exterior of the particle. These particles, or LCAPs are produced by forming a core of polymeric acid, encasing the core in a shell polymer permeable to base, and then neutralizing the core such that the core swells, causing the shell to "explode" in a controlled fashion. This controlled explosion causes channels to form in the shell. These particles can be used as control release devices for target compounds, to impart reinforcing properties to acrylic films, as an opacifying agent in coating compositions, and as a supplement or replacement of part or all of the pigmentary material or extenders that would otherwise be used in such coating compositions.

Abstract: A field emission display comprises a screen (10) divided into a plurality of pixels. Each pixel has a plurality of subpixels (130,140,150) of different phosphor efficacies. A matrix of field emission cathodes (80) is directed towards corresponding pixels of the screen (10). Each cathode has a plurality of arrays (81,82,83) of field emissive tips directed towards corresponding subpixels (130,140,150). The arrays of each cathode (80) comprise different densities of field emission tips to compensate for the differences in the phosphor efficacies of the corresponding subpixels (130,140,150). This advantageously permits tracking between the primary colour components of a gray scale displayed image to be maintained used the same algorithm to translate into voltages for driving the arrays. 
Therefore, the Colour Point or White Point of the display can be maintained between extremes of gray scale using the same algorithm. Because the separate algorithms are not required for translating the video signals into gate voltages, the row driver circuitry can be greatly simplified.

Abstract: A facility is provided for allowing a caller to place a telephone call by merely uttering a label identifying a desired called destination and to charge the telephone call to a particular billing account by merely uttering a label identifying that account. Alternatively, the caller may place the call by dialing or uttering the telephone number of the called destination or by entering a speed dial code associated with that telephone number. The facility includes a speaker verification system which employs cohort normalized scoring. Cohort normalized scoring provides a dynamic threshold for the verification process making the process more robust to variation in training and verification utterences. Such variation may be caused by,  e.g. , changes in communication channel characteristics or speaker loudness level.
