Abstract: Apparatus for towing a surface buoy or float, in particular a reference position buoy (1), from a marine seismic streamer (4) being adapted during operation to be immersed in the sea. The towing takes place by a means of a length of cable or the like (5A, 5B) being attached to a section of the streamer and to the surface buoy respectively. At an intermediate portion of the length of cable (5A, 5B) there is provided a weight or deflector device (2) being adapted during towing to impose an angular deviation of the length of cable so that the direction thereof downwards (5A) and upwards (5B) from the weight or deflector device (2), forms a mutual angle (Vb) differing significantly from 180°. The point of attachment (3) at the streamer is located at an active section (4) thereof.

Abstract: In order to immobilise bio-material, e.g. enzymes, micro-organisms, cells, organelles, etc., on a substrate with a Si3N4 surface with bonding-active NHx groups, use is made of a hetero-functional cross-linking agent with a bio-material coupling function on the one hand and a NHx-reactive group on the other. The immobilisation substrate preferably takes the form of a 10-1000 mm thick Si3N4 layer which is separated from SiH4/NH3 by CVD and coated with bonding-active NHx groups by hydrolysing surface cleaning, especially with dilute acid. Advantageously, a hetero-bifunctional cross-linking agent is first caused to react with an NH2-reactive aldehyde, ester, halide, epoxide, imine or isocyanate group and, after the removal of unbonded superfluous cross-linking agent, coupled to the biomaterial by means of the bio-reactive group.

Abstract: A washing apparatus is compact as well as easy to handle, with which a user can wash down dirt effectively in a short time. Washing liquid supplied from the washing liquid supplying means is made in the form of high-speed jet liquid by a high-speed jet stream spouting means. The high-speed jet liquid is spouted from the aperture of the first cover to wash down dirt by the impact given by the high-speed jet liquid. A washing object is dewatered by gas spouted from the aperture by a blowing means. The high-speed jet stream spouting means is comprised of a rotating object having a plurality of radial shape flow paths extending from a center portion to a circumference of the rotating object, and a liquid supplying portion for supplying washing liquid to a central portion of the radial shape flow paths. A rotating means rotates the rotating object so that washing liquid supplied in the radial shape flow paths is accelerated in the direction of a circumference as well as a radius of the rotating object by rotation. The accelerated washing liquid is spouted from an aperture in the form of high-speed jet liquid.

Abstract: The meter 2, e.g. a gas meter includes an inlet boss 4 providing an unregulated supply of gas via a valve means 8 which regulates the flow of gas as it passes into a chamber 6. The valve means 8 forms part of a governor which is formed integral with the gas meter. The valve means 8 includes a valve stem 12 which has a bore 18 extending throughout the length of the valve stem. The valve stem passes through the chamber 6 and through a first diaphragm 22 to which it is sealably connected and is terminated on the surface of second diaphragm 34. The first diaphragm 22 separates second and third chambers 24, 28, the second chamber 24 being in communication with the first chamber 6. The third chamber 28 is connected via the bore 18 in the valve stem 12 to the unregulated gas supply. The second diaphragm 34 separates fourth and fifth chambers 32,38, the chamber 38 is vented to the atmosphere. In normal operation the chamber 32 is connected by a control valve 46 to the chamber 6, and the various balance of forces through the governor allow the gas supply to be regulated. The control valve 46 when operated by a solenoid 48 into a second position causes the chamber 32 to be connected to the chamber 28 and the inlet pressure is communicated via the conduit 54, 50 to the chamber 32 causing the governor to shut off the gas supply.

Abstract: Apparatus for providing shared access to a shared RAM in situations where the shared RAM is electrically connected to a relatively slow address/data bus, and shared access is desired from a relatively faster address bus and data bus. An address buffer is connected between the address bus and the address/data bus, the address buffer for selectably buffering address information between those buses under control of an address buffer selection signal. A data buffer is connected between the data bus and the address/data bus, the data buffer for selectably buffering data information between those buses under control of a data buffer selection signal. A gate array is connected to the address/data bus, the gate array controlling access the shared RAM. A logic array is connected to the address bus and is responsive to address information on the address bus which corresponds to addresses of the shared RAM. In response to those addresses, the logic array activates the address buffer selection signal so as to cause the address buffer to buffer address information from the address bus onto the address/data bus, and thereafter by deactivating the address buffer selection signal and activating the data buffer selection signal so as to cause the data buffer to buffer data information from or to the address/data bus.
