Title: Zeolite compositions
IPC: A61K33/06
Filed: 1989-01-30
Granted: 1993-09-15
Abstract: A composition containing a zeolite and an acid suitable for use in increasing bone strength in an animal having a bone strength less than desired and/or for use in treating, preventing or delaying the onset of a bone disorder such as osteoporosis, osteochondrosis, or dyschondroplasia. A preferred zeolite is zeolite A. Preferred acids are illustrated by citric, fumaric and aspartic acids. The presence of such acids in the composition enhances the breakdown (i.e. decomposition) of the zeolite thereby making it more efficacious for increasing bone strength or combating bone disease. Preferably, the compositions contain from about 35 to about 65 weight percent of the acid; the remainder being the zeolite. Such compositions can be admixed with other materials such as excipients used in the preparation of unit dosage forms.

Title: A thermally initiated mechanically fired device for providing protection against slow cook-off
IPC: F02K/
Filed: 1989-06-19
Granted: 1993-06-16
Abstract: Slow cook-off protection for rocket motors is achieved through the use of a slow cook-off trigger mechanism (10) in which a mechanical response is thermally initiated. A metallic housing (12) contains and is thermally coupled to a bimetallic snap action disc spring (14). A firing pin (24) is connected to the disc spring and telescopically guided by the housing toward an explosive booster charge (40). The booster charge is coupled in a conventional manner to a linear shaped charge (52). The linear shaped charge is disposed adjacent to the rocket motor case in order to cut a stress riser in the casing when activated. The circular bimetallic spring is designed to snap between a first and second configuration to thereby drive the firing pin into the explosive booster charge at a predetermined temperature below the expected ignition temperature of the rocket propellant.

Abstract: In a photographic camera (101), a motorized film transport (109) is operated in a prewind mode to continuously advance successive unexposed frames of a filmstrip (F) from a light-tight cassette (1) to a film take-up (121), without exposing any of the film frames at the focal plane of an objective lens (127), and is operated in a rewind mode to position respective unexposed frames for exposure at the focal plane and to return them individually to the cassette following each exposure. Before an exposed frame is returned to the cassette, a double exposure prevention DEP encodement (169) is applied to the filmstrip at a predetermined location proximate the exposed frame. If the filmstrip (F) is rewound into the cassette (1) prematurely, i.e. without it being completely exposed, and at a later time the cassette is re-loaded into the camera (101), the film transport (109) will be operated in the pre-wind mode only until a DEP encodement (169) is sensed. Then, the film transport (109) will be operated in the rewind mode to return the exposed frame corresponding to the sensed encodement to the cassette (1) and to position the next-available unexposed frame for exposure at the focal plane.

Abstract: Storage containers which can be subdivided by means of removable partitions, in particular storage boxes with partitions which can be pushed into grooves, are known. In order to prevent the partitions from moving, causing mixing of the stored items thus separated from one another, the partitions (2) are provided, according to the invention, with resilient locking devices (3) which engage behind an edge (8) on the side wall of the box (1) in their end position. The locking device can be designed as a spring tongue (3), which is attached laterally to the upper rim of the partition. The spring tongue can engage under an edge from the inside. Advantageously, the arrangement is such that release of the locking from outside, e.g. through a perforation in the wall, is facilitated. It is however also possible to bring the locking device into engagement with the edge of a peripheral rim or of a label support. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A pressure reducing valve (1) is mounted directly on a high pressure (300 bar) gas cylinder (23). When a standard adaptor is inserted in the outlet (4) and handwheel (20) is opened gas is available at outlet (4) at a maximum pressure of 200 bar. When a special filling adaptor (24) is inserted in the outlet (4) the cylinder can be refilled to its maximum pressure of 300 bar. The special filling adaptor (24) has a seal (25) which inhibits gas flow from a chamber (28) via a passage (22) to the surrounding atmosphere. This, in turn, inhibits a piston (8) moving downwardly to close the inlet (3) of the pressure reducing valve (1) as would be the case in normal service.

Abstract: An improved method for testing for the presence of a particular microorganism and/or group of microorganisms characterized by a particular enzyme is provided. The method uses a dye-forming and/or fluorogenic-generating substrate throughout a polymer matrix or on the surface of a solid support member that forms a colored precipitate or fluorescent by-product when cleaved by the enzyme. The precipitate is concentrated on the polymer matrix and/or solid support member to create a visible reaction product, whereas the fluorescent by-product will normally be dispersed into the surrounding medium to some extent. The amount of dye-forming substrate needed is independent of the sample size. The present invention further comprises an enzyme indicator device comprising a dye-forming and/or fluorogenic-generating substrate throughout a polymer system or on the surface of a solid support member.

Abstract: In the case of an actuating cylinder, particularly a double-acting door-lock cylinder for actuating doors of rail vehicles, a bolt mechanism is necessary, which with total reliability prevents opening of the doors when the train is in motion. For bolting the piston rod (3) of the actuating cylinder connected to the door locking mechanism and able to be actuated by a piston, a bolt (9), movable in a transverse direction of the piston rod (3), is provided, which is supported on both sides of the longitudinal axis of the piston rod (3) in guides of the housing (5) accommodating it, the piston rod passing through a bore of sufficient width running in the bolt (9) in a transverse direction to this. The bolt (9) can be actuated by compressed air against spring force, that is it can be shifted into its bolting position, the pressure acting on the bolt being monitored by a valve (15), which can be actuated by a section of the piston rod (3). In the locked position a shoulder (31) of the bolt (9) is in collision with the displacement travel of the piston rod, the withdrawal of which from the locking mechanism can thereby be prevented. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An article may be temporarily colored by application of an aqueous solution of a polyoxyalkylene substituted chromophore characterized by a C=N pair with an electron withdrawing group bonded to one element of the pair and an electron donating group bonded to the opposite element. The polyoxyalkylene substituent imparts solubility to the colorant and bulk to prevent penetration into interstices in the article being colored. The colorant may be subsequently decolorized by hydrolysis when an aqueous acid solution is applied to the colorant.
