Abstract: Pressing or touching a button (23) on the gear lever (20) sends out signals from the on-board computer (18). These reduce engine torque and disengage the clutch (12). The gear is changed manually. During the gear change, engine- (n1) and gearbox input- (n2) speeds are constantly synchronized, the latter being a function of the gear currently selected and vehicle speed. On releasing the button, the clutch is re-engaged and engine torque is matched through signals from the on-board computer, to the accelerator pedal position (17) held by the driver. An Independent claim is included for the corresponding equipment.

Abstract: The present invention is a new method for forming a high density hard facing rod. The rod is particularly suitable for hardfacing downhole tools including both fixed cutter and rolling cutter drill bits, bias pads for downhole rotary steerable systems, and stabilizers, and for other types of tools requiring strong and wear resistant hardfacings. The method includes the steps of: preparing a powder mix comprising carbide and metal powders, a fugitive binder, and other additives to render a moldable rheology; forming the powder mix into a powder core encased with a metal sheath to form a core-sheath assembly; and isostatically compacting the core-sheath assembly to densify the core to at least 65% of theoretical density and mechanically attach the sheath. The core fugitive binder along with residual volatile constituents may be thermally removed with or without vacuum, reducing, or inert environment prior to weld application of the composite rod. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The procedure for producing oxygen-rich and optional nitrogen-rich fluids uses a plant comprising at least one air separator with two distillation columns, and first and second air compressors, combustion chambers and expansion chambers, and a third air compressor. At least 20 per cent of the air processed by the first separator comes from the third compressor in nominal operating conditions, and at least 80 per cent during reduced operating conditions. The procedure for producing oxygen-rich and optional nitrogen-rich fluids uses a plant comprising at least one air separator with two distillation columns, and first and second air compressors (13, 15), combustion chambers (17, 23) and expansion chambers (19, 25), and a third air compressor (21). The first two air compressors deliver compressed air to the two combustion chambers and the first air separator, while compressed air from the third compressor also goes to the first separator. Combustion gas (27, 29) is fed to the first and second expansion turbines from the two combustion chambers, and nitrogen-rich gas, optionally pressurized, is fed from the second air separator to a point upstream of the first expansion turbine and/or the second expansion turbine. At least 20 per cent of the air processed by the first separator comes from the third compressor in nominal operating conditions, and at least 80 per cent during reduced operating conditions.

Abstract: The present invention demonstrates the biological function of a newly identified osteoclast-secreted protein. This protein, mim-1, has sequence homology with but is distinct from a previously identified neutrophil chemokine protein. Mim-1 may be a key signaling protein secreted by osteoclasts that regulates recruitment and/or differentiation of osteoblast and osteoclast precursor cells. This protein may also serve to maintain osteoclasts in a relatively inactive state prior to secretion. This mechanism is essential for regulating the mass and structural integrity of bone. This protein or an analog and/or antagonists of this protein will have potential therapeutic potential in the treatment of a variety of pathological bone diseases including osteoporosis and metastatic bone diseases.
