Abstract: Process for maintaining in service coaxial multichannel installations by a transmission network which is remotely supplied and comprised of symmetric cables wherein an amplification station is arranged for each line section. In each p<th> line section, wherein p is an integer selected as a function of the length and the characteristics of the line transmission and preferably equal to 4, 5 or 6, the peak network section embracing also the p line sections is corrected by means of a compensation effected by constant wiring compensation, the signal amplification in each line section being controlled by pilot signals of which the frequency is appropriately higher than that of the signal frequency range. The invention further relates to a multichannel transmission chain for data transmission with coaxial telecommunication installations and with a remotely supplied transmission network, conformed with symmetrical cables into at least one section, comprised of P line sections wherein P is appropriately equal to 4, 5 or 6 of the peak network and comprising an amplification station per line section. The stations comprise chain connected units such as the wiring compensation element, the adjusting circuit and the line amplifier, and a pilot signal receiver connected to the chain, whereas in the amplification station of each p<th> line section there is also inserted in the chain a peak network compensation element. The essential feature of the invention is that the coaxial installations are connected at the input, respectively at the output of the transmission network by means of transformers and that a precompensation is carried out on the 1<st>.../p-1/<th> line sections pertaining to the peak network section, wherein the attenuation for the pilot frequency corresponds to the correction attenuation value obtained in the p<th> line section, whereas in the signal transmission range it is lower than the correction attenuation. The essence of the invention lies further in the fact that the input and the output stages of coaxial installations are transformers (21) between the input transformer (21) and a wiring compensation element (22), being inserted in the chain an accessory compensation element (27) which, in the 1<st>.../p-1/<th> line sections is comprised of a precompensation element (371) with fixed attenuation and, in the p<th> line section, is comprised of a peak network compensation element (372) having individually adjustable characteristics.

IPC: B65D85/07
Filed: 1990-12-07
Abstract: An easy open flexible bag preferably containing one or more stacks of flexible articles which are maintained in a state of compression in a direction substantially parallel to their thickness. For products such as disposable absorbent baby diapers, catamenial pads, incontinent briefs and the like, the degree of compression within the bag may be as much as 50% or more when compared to the uncompressed thickness of the stack of articles in question. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the bag totally encloses the stack or stacks of compressed flexible articles and exhibits a substantially rectilinear shape. The bag preferably includesa longitudinally oriented carrying handle which is formed indepenently of the bag. The opposed ends of the carrying handle are preferably secured to bag's side panels. The side panels and the front and back panels of the bag are subject to tension imposed by the stack of compressed flexible articles. A predetermined line of weakness spanning a tensioned side wall of the bag is provided and functions as an easy opening system. The easy opening system is so positioned on the side panel of the bag that when the package is opened, the carrying handle remains attached to the bag and fully functional. The easy opening system allows the compressive forces acting upon the flexible articles contained in the bag to be partially relaxed when the easy open feature is activated by the end user. Partial separation or complete removal of a portion of the tensioned side panel of the bag allows the coinciding portion of the stack of compressed articles to project in fan-like array through the aperture thus created to permit easy one-at-a-time removal.

Title: Assay having improved dose response curve.
Inventor: MORTENSEN RICHARD B
IPC: G01N33/543
Filed: 1993-02-10
Abstract: An assay for determining the presence of a threshold concentration of an analyte in a sample comprises first reacting the sample with an amount of anti-analyte selected to reduce the free analyte to a marginally detectable concentration. The sample is then contacted with anti-analyte immobilized on a test region or indicator zone on a solid phase, whereby the residual free analyte may be bound. The binding of free analyte to immobilized anti-analyte is detected by a variety of techniques to indicate the presence of the threshold concentration. By employing limited amounts of anti-analyte on the solid phase, the change between maximum binding of label and no binding of label will be responsive to very small changes in the analyte concentration originally present in the sample.
