Patent EP-0308748-A3 (EP)
IPC: H01L31/0203
Filed: 1988-09-09
Abstract: Bei der Montage von Empfängermodulen für die Lichtwellenleiter­
übertragung in ein Modulgehäuse besteht das Problem, daß ein 
hochpräziser Einbau vorgenommen werden muß, der wegen der Gefahr 
der Verschmutzung optischer Oberflächen nicht mittels Kleben 
oder Löten erfolgen darf. Erfindungsgemäß wird die eine inte­
grierte Schaltung und Verstärkerelemente enthaltende Schicht­
schaltung mit dem Keramiksubstrat über z-förmige Haltewinkel 
an den Gehäuseboden gepreßt, so daß dort eine Klebe- oder Löt­
verbindung entfallen kann. Die Haltewinkel sind mit metallisier­
ten Randstreifen des Substrates vor dem Einsetzen der elektroop­
tischen Bauteile verlötet und mit dem Gehäuseboden durch Laser­
schweißen verbunden. Es hat sich herausgestellt, daß der Wärme­
fluß bei der benötigten Verlustleistung ausreicht.

Abstract: A phthalocyanine compound of the formula:  
    (R-X-) m  Pc (-Y-R¹-Z-) n  (-SO₃M) p        I  
wherein  
    Pc is a phthalocyanine nucleus (Pc);  
each R independently is a monovalent aromatic radical linked to a 
peripheral carbon atom of the Pc nucleus through X;  
    X selected from S, Se and Te;  
    m is 4 to 16;  
each R¹ independently is a divalent aromatic radical linked to two 
adjacent peripheral carbon atoms of the Pc nucleus through Y 
and Z;  
    Y is selected from S, NT, Se and Te;  
    Z is selected from S, Se, Te, NT and 0;  
    T is selected from H, alkyl and aryl;  
    n is 0 to 7;

     The compounds have a significant absorption band in the near 
infra red and depending on the number of sulphonic acids groups and 
the nature of the counter ion are soluble in aqueous and polar 
organic media. The compounds are useful in many applications where 
absorption of infra-red radiation is desirable, such as in OCR 
readable inks, rapid-drying inks, security printing and reprographic

IPC: E06B9/01
Filed: 1988-06-15
Abstract: Corresponding ends of rods (20,64) 
preferably of square cross-sectional shape, are 
clamped by initially-separated halves of clamps 
(10; 10,15; 50,51) said halves becoming connected 
permanently to one another by a nut/bolt combination 
(30,31,32; 53,54,56,57,58) of which the nut(32;57) 
has a drive head (30,56) which shears off when the 
connection has been properly made.  
     The clamp halves (50,51) may be made by 
drop-stamping and the rods (64) may be made from 
hot-rolled steel bars. Alternatively, the clamp 
halves (10; 10,15) may be made as pressings and the 
rods (20) may be made from cold-drawn steel bars.

Patent EP-0317073-A3 (EP)
Title: Blood collection valve
IPC: A61B5/15
Filed: 1988-10-07
Abstract: A blood collecting valve (10) is provided with a struc­
tural input part (11.1) with a half moon shaped separating 
wall opening (18) as well as a structural output part (12.1) 
which is rotatable with respect to the structural input part 
with a seal face opening (23). Both are disposed outside of 
the rotational axis of the associated structural parts. 
Thereby,it is possible to bring the two opening into congruence 
with each other by rotating around the rotational axis or to 
again sealingly separate the same from each other.  
     The mentioned common rotating of the structural input 
part and the structural output part and thereby the opening 
and closing of the blood collecting valve may be performed 
by rotating a blood collecting cylinder (16) being inserted 
into the structural output part with an application conus (15). 
Hence,no separate manual handling is required for using the 
blood collection valve.

Patent EP-0321291-A3 (EP)
IPC: G06T15/50
Filed: 1988-12-16
Abstract: In a computer image generation system, as a viewpoint 
approaches a surface of an object and is closer than a predetermined 
threshold distance from the surface, a texture pattern obtained 
from cell data becomes fuzzy, and may not provide adequate 
motion cues for training, such as piloting an airplane. In 
accordance with the present invention, random data is provided 
(13,14) at a predetermined derived level of detail (M=0) for 
combining (25) with cell data (LOD(M)) to define the surface 
including texture of the object when the object is closer to the 
viewpoint than the threshold distance. The apparatus may be 
readily retrofitted into an existing system.

Title: Procédé de blanchiment ou de délignification d'une pâte cellulosique par l'oxygène, et installation pour sa mise en oeuvre
IPC: D21C9/147
Filed: 1988-06-08
Abstract: Dans ce procédé continu de blanchiment ou de délignification 
d'une pâte cellulosique par l'oxygène, on fait passer la pâte, sous la 
forme d'une suspension aqueuse, dans un conduit diffuseur et mélangeur 
(123), à une vitesse à laquelle cette pâte se comporte comme un liquide 
turbulent et, ensuite, dans une cuve de rétention (137), à une vitesse 
à laquelle la suspension prend un écoulement de type piston. Un mélange 
d'oxygène-vapeur d'eau est diffusé à travers une paroi microporeuse qui 
forme une interface avec la suspension circulant dans le conduit, pour 
former une masse de petites bulles d'oxygène où la vapeur se sépare par 
condensation en apportant de la chaleur à la suspension et en laissant 
l'oxygène sous la forme de bulles plus petites qui se dispersent dans 
tout le volume de la suspension, en présentant une aire de surface 
totale considérablemetn supérieure à celles des bulles qui 
résulteraient de l'injection d'oxygène seul à travers la même paroi 
microporeuse dans les même conditions. Les bulles d'oxygène restent 
dispersées dans tout le volume de la suspension lorsque cette dernière 
prend un écoulement de type piston, pour donner à l'oxygène le temps 
d'exercer son effet de blanchiment. L'invention concerne également une 
installation pour la mise en oeuvre du procédé.

Title: Method for welding flat plastic sheets one over the other
IPC: B29C65/02
Filed: 1989-01-03
Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for welding plastic sheets lying flat one on top of the other, in which the said sheets are brought into contact with a heated cutting edge and the said sheets are welded with a parting seam. Welding is carried out using two-layer or multilayer laminated sheets of different schematic compositions, of which one laminated sheet has an opaque coloured or uncoloured layer on which a transparent sealing layer based on a propylene/ethylene copolymer or a propylene/ethylene alloy is arranged.

Patent EP-0338567-A3 (EP)
Title: Endoscope for use with a disposable sheath
IPC: A61B1/00
Filed: 1989-04-20
Abstract: An endoscope (60) specially adapted for use with a disposable sheath (72) having an outer casing and one or more internal channels. The endoscope includes a tip portion (62) connected to a control handle (66) through a flexible insertion tube (64). The insertion tube (94) is formed by a braided wire tube covered by a flexible waterproof coating and surrounding a resilient D-shaped tube through which optical components for the endoscope extend. A longitudinally extending groove (68) is formed in the braided tube to receive the channel(s). The groove extends perpendicular to, and makes contact with, a generally planar portion of the D-shaped tube so that the D-shaped tube can restrict deformation of the groove as the insertion tube bends. Longitudinal channels (130, 132) are formed on opposite sides of the groove to house control cables extending from the control handle to the tip portion. The cables are surrounded by tubes that collectively occupy the entire channel so that the tubes prevent the channel, and hence the groove, from collapsing.

Title: Method for determining antigen
IPC: C07K16/30
Filed: 1989-02-08
Abstract: To determine an antigen in a fluid sample an 
antibody to the antigen is first provided. The fluid 
sample is contacted with the antibody so that the antigen 
in the sample forms an immunocomplex with the antibody. 
A lectin is contacted with the antigen so that the 
lectin binds to the antigen. Lectin-bound 
immunocomplexed antigen is separated from any of the 
lectin not bound to the immunocomplexed antigen and from 
the fluid sample. The lectin-bound immunocomplexed 
antigen is detected. A method is also described for 
extracting a glycoprotein from a clinical sample by 
contacting the sample with perchloric acid, centrifuging 
to provide a first supernatant, contacting the first 
supernatant with potassium bicarbonate, and centrifuging 
to provide a second supernatant containing the 
glycoprotein.
