Patent EP-1269623-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LEEDHAM ROBERT
IPC: H03F3/217
Filed: 2001-03-30
Abstract: A switch-mode power amplifier circuit using high power, low distortion waveforms is connected to an electromagnetic load to provide a high degree of control over the load. The circuit comprising a plurality of half-bridge networks having outputs combined at a summation point. The half-bridge networks are switched to provide power outputs sequenced to generate an interlaced output at the summation point which is operably connected to the load so that for a given switching frequency of the networks the operational frequency of the circuit is increased. The sequencing of the half-bridge outputs to generate an interlaced output facilitates the reduction of the switching frequency of individual switching components within the half-bridges while at least maintaining the overall operational frequency of the circuit. For <I>N</I> half-bridges operating at <I>f</I> kHz, the overall operational frequency of the circuit is <I>Nf</I>kHz. Alternatively, the switching frequency of individual switching elements of a system operating at <I>f</I><SB>o</SB>kHz may be reduced by a factor of <I>N</I>. A feedback signal generated across the load is included at the summation point and is optionally augmented to decrease distortion.

Abstract: Abstract: An alarm system comprises plural movement PIR detector of which three such detectors are shown and designated by reference numerals (1, 2 and 3). An alarm control box (4) is connected to the movement detectors (1, 2 and 3) so as to receive an activation signal from a movement detector which has been actuated by movement from an intruder within its range. Control box (4) is connected to an illumination controller (5) provided to energise lamps (6, 7, 8 and 9) intermittently once an alarm activation signal has been received by control box (4). Controller (5) is equipped to alternate the illumination of a lamp (6, 7, 8, 9) so that, upon receipt of a signal from control box (4) designated for the energisation of a particular lamp, the lamp is first energised so as to illuminate it to a level which causes closure of the irises of the eyes of the intruder (but without permanent eye damage) and then de-energised so that illumination is near zero for sufficient time for iris recovery (e.g. a period of 6 seconds). Thereafter, the same lamp (or another lamp in response to detection of the intruder by another of the movement detectors) is illuminated (again) so as to close intruder's irises. In this way, the intruder's eyes are unable to acclimatise to the changing light conditions and his movement about the space addressed by the alarm system is seriously impaired. <IMAGE>

Title: Method for measuring gas permeability of a coating on a plastic wall and device for implementing said method
Inventor: CHATARD DOMINIQUE
IPC: G01N1/38
Filed: 2001-03-14
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for measuring the permeability of a coating (3) on a plastic wall (1) to low molecular weight gases, wherein the diffusion coefficient and/or solubility coefficient of the coating (3) relative to the low molecular weight gases are lower than for instance those of the plastic wall (1), wherein the space (4) on the coating side is exposed to a first fluid (5) and is rinsed until only the first fluid (5) fills said space. The invention also concerns a device for implementing said method. In order to measure the barrier property of the coating (3), the first fluid is a test medium (5) containing a component that can be diffused in the plastic wall (1) and absorbed by said wall; after rinsing the space (4), the test medium (5) is removed therefrom; the coated space (4) is then exposed to an extraction medium (7) in which the component can be well dissolved and measured and the concentration of the component in the extraction medium (7) is measured.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing a vaccine against cancerous diseases and to the vaccine itself. The invention provides that, firstly while using one or more antibodies, which are specifically active against one or more antigens specially expressed by the tumor cells, one or more mimotopes of these antigens is/are selected from a phage-peptide library. In order to obtain the vaccine, these mimotopes, in the form of monomers, dimers, trimers or oligomers, are conjugated once or repeatedly with a macromolecular support. The inventively produced vaccines, when administered, lead to a humoral immune response and thus lead to the emergence of an active immunity following the vaccination.

Abstract: A background computing section 32 of an analyzing
apparatus 10 computes such a background value that a normal
probability graph, based on a cumulative frequency ratio of
subtracted values obtained by subtracting the background value
from each of values representative of signal intensities on
the spot arranged on a DNA chip, has a predetermined linearity.
The logarithmically converted values of the corrected signal
intensity values, as subtracted values of the background value
from the values representative of signal intensities, assume
a normal distribution. Accordingly, by standardizing this,
it is possible to compare the data measured from the same kind
of DNA chips or different kinds of DNA chips.

Abstract: A control method for controlling the timing of fuel injection in a fuelling
system for an engine comprising a fuel injector supplied with fuel from a
source of fuel at high pressure, comprises the steps of varying a drive current (A)
which is supplied to the fuel injector at a first time (T 1 ) so as to initiate or terminate
a primary injection of fuel and monitoring the pressure of fuel within the source (C)
so as to detect when a variation in fuel pressure occurs. A time delay is
measured (ΔT), which represents the difference in time between the first time and a
second, later time (T 2 ) at which a variation in fuel pressure within the source is
detected. The measured time delay is used to adjust the time at which the drive
current is varied so as to initiate or terminate a subsequent injection of fuel,
thereby to ensure initiation or termination of the subsequent injection of fuel
occurs at a required time.
