Abstract: An automated assay system includes a temperature controlled chamber with a conveyor therein. The conveyor carries berths past a port in a sidewall of the chamber to permit insertion and extraction of assay cartridges via the port into respective ones of the berths. An injector disposed outside the chamber and at the port includes a loader arm for advancing cartridges along a path through the port to accomplish insertion and extraction of a cartridge. A track is provided in the injector for guiding the assay module. A portion of the track connects by a swing arm to a pivot allowing the track portion to be swung away from the path for ejection of a cartridge. A door which provides for opening and closing of the port is connected to the swing arm to move concurrently with the swinging of the track portion. This allows for automatic closure of the port subsequent to an insertion or an extraction of a cartridge, and automatic opening of the port prior to insertion or extraction of the cartridge.

The plastic material which provides the channel and the plastic material which forms the cover are simultaneously extruded around optical fibers in two flows which are separated in advance of enclosing the fibers and which join with a weak bond as the flows meet thereafter. In the apparatus, the extruder has a tubular element through which the fibers are fed and the tubular element divides the plastic material into two separate flows in advance of a die. The tubular member is adjustable in position with respect to the die to balance or equalize the plastics flow.

Abstract: A vacuum system for removal of debris in the form of shavings, particles, or the like has been developed for use inside of a cryostat to evacuate and collect such material as it is generated during specimen preparation using a microtome, also inside of the cryostat. The system includes a vacuum assembly unit containing a vacuum collection nozzle having a suction duct. The cold assembly unit is moveably positioned adjacent to the microtome knife so that debris is suctioned away and removed concurrent with or immediately after its production during cryotomy, and is captured in a cold primary filter. The frozen debris does not melt, but remains rigid while it freeze-dries and is trapped on the filter as cold air flows over and through it, thereby maintaining the collected waste material in a very porous state. This porosity permits the collection of a large volume of debris without clogging the cold filter, in contrast to the rapid clogging which occurs when such frozen debris melts, is suctioned into, collapses within, dries and seals off the pores of a warm filter. When required, the collection nozzle and attached assembly unit can be moveably positioned out of the way of the microtome knife. The system may also include a second bacteriological filter inside or outside of the cryostat to entrap any small quantities of fine debris which may pass through the primary filter after suctioning. When necessary, both types of filters can be efficiently, economically, and safely replaced and discarded.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a device for correction of frequency offset due to Doppler effect in a transmission system. The device for correction of a frequency offset due to the Doppler effect applies in a transmission system in which a signal is transmitted in a transmitting lobe between a transmitter (S) and a receiver (R) in relative movement. The frequency offset ( DELTA f) which is the difference between the frequencies of the transmitted signal measured at the receiver (fr) and at the transmitter (fe) is presented as the sum of a central frequency (fc) characteristic of the transmitting lobe and of a position frequency (fp) which is a function of the position of the receiver (R) in the transmitting lobe. The device comprises means for tuning the receiver (R) which exhibits a tuning frequency (fa) in such a way that this tuning frequency (fa) is equal to the sum of the transmitted frequency (fe) and the central frequency (fc). <IMAGE>
