Abstract: An apparatus (10) and a method to remove and install horizontal heat exchanger bundles. A continuous track and a main frame (12) having a carriage frame (28) with vertical hydraulic cylinders (26) are used and achieve the stability necessary to support and level a heat exchanger bundle during removal from its shell at various vertical heights. The preferred configuration allows the main frame (12), hydraulic cylinders (18), pads (20) and tracks (32,34) which provide a large surface area on the ground, to remain on the ground as the hydraulic cylinders (26) raise the carriage frame (28) to the height of the bundle shell to increase stability of the apparatus (10). Moreover, the tracks (32,34) allow the self-propelled extractor to move over gravel, asphalt, and/or soft uneven surfaces without becoming embedded into the surface. Alternatively, the carriage frame may be raised or moved using a crane or helicopter by removing the carriage frame from the main frame.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the IL-12p40 subunit mutant gene which can produce IL-12 (interleukin 12) of human and mouse origin with high activity, the expression vector including above mutant gene and the use of them to DNA vaccine adjuvant. Particularly, it relates to IL-12p40 mutant gene which inhibits the secretion of IL-12p40 but normally secretes active IL- 12p70 by making mutation at Asn-222 (human) or Asn- 220 (mouse) amino acid of IL-12p40, which acts as a competitive inhibitor of active form of IL-12, IL-12p70. Therefore, the IL-12p40 mutant gene of the present invention can be useful for DNA vaccination and gene therapy against various diseases, for example, AIDS, hepatitis C or hepatitis B, cancer, influenza, tuberculosis and malaria, which essentially require cellular immune responses for their therapy.

Abstract: An improved flash EEPROM memory-based storage subsystem includes one or more flash memory arrays, each with a duplicity of data registers and a controller circuit. When data are read from a flash array into a data register, the data is copied to a second register so that, during the ensuing program operation into the same array, the data may be transferred to the controller for the purpose of checking the data validity. This creates an improved performance system that doesn't suffer data transfer latency during copy operations but that is able to guarantee the validity of the data involved in such operations.

Abstract: A fishing device 1 , for automatically hooking a fish, has a spring 23 that can be tautened and held in a taut condition by a blocking device 37 . An end of the spring 23 is coupled to a hook 27 behind which a fishing line, coming from a fishing rod, can be hooked. The fishing line also runs over a sensor 47 . If a fish bites the fishing line is pulled taut and the sensor 47 lifts the blocking of the spring 23 . Thus the spring 23 loosens, and the hook 27 gives a pull to the fishing line and the fish is hooked. During the hooking the fishing line is held in place by a clamping device 53 , and after the fish is hooked the fishing line is released. Thus the reel of the fishing rod can continually stay in the slip position to prevent the fishing rod from being pulled into the water by the fish, to facilitate quick catching of the fish without first having to remove the reel from the blocking position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composite structure for electronic microsystems and a method for producing this composite structure, with the composite structure being provided with a polycrystalline diamond layer ( 4 ) for heat withdrawal. The growth substrate ( 1 ) contains or forms a component layer ( 2 ) with the electronic microsystems, which are provided with binary or higher order component compound semiconductors. A protective layer ( 3 ), which encloses the component layer at least indirectly almost entirely, is placed between the component layer 2 and the diamond layer ( 4 ). A material is selected for the protective layer whose reactivity with the precursor materials present in the deposition of the diamond layer ( 4 ) by means of CVD, preferably by means of plasma CVD, is smaller than that of the component layer ( 2 ), and said protective layer. In order for the protective layer ( 3 ) to develop sufficient effectivity, it must be applied with an original thickness of at least 20 nm, preferably at least 50 nm and particularly preferred at least 100 nm.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fluid container and to means and a method for lining said fluid container. The aim of the invention is to provide a lining or covering for a fluid container which lining or covering can be examined for leaks, works reliably and stably over a long period and can be produced without complications. The lining or covering should especially be resistant to high container pressures without failures. To this end, the invention provides a lining that has a net-like spacing layer with individual threads arranged cross-wise relative one another, a fluid-impermeable film seal and a padding layer from foam material disposed between the film seal and the spacing layer. The free space defined by the spacing layer serves to monitor the container for leaks. The lining is used for lining a tank bottom, especially a flat-bottom tank, optionally also the tank inner walls, but can also be used to cover the exterior of the fluid container.
