Abstract: A carpet loom of the gripper-jacquard Axminster type includes a shogging mechanism (21) to shog the grippers (3) and/or the yarn carriers (1) transversely between successive picks of pile yarn. By shogging the grippers (1) transversely between successive picks of pile yarn a different gripper is used in each course for successive picks. Equally, when the yarn carriers (1) are shogged the pile yarns that form each course are not taken from the same yarn carrier (1). Thus, any fault on the grippers (1) or in the yarn in one carrier (1) will not result in a fault on a single course throughout the entire carpet but will, instead, be dispersed between a number of different courses.

Abstract: This invention provides a charge control resin using a polymer that has polar groups for imparting static chargeability and that exhibits a flow rate in a range of 0.5 to 1.0 in thin-layer chromatography which uses silica gel as an adsorbent and ethyl acetate as a developing solvent. The resin is obtained by dispersing it in a binding resin or by suspension-polymerizing the binding resin under the condition where the resin is incorporated in a polymerizable composition. The obtained toner exhibits excellent static chargeability, humidity resistance, coloring property and reproducibility.

Abstract: A method for recovering a recombinant protein from a protein solution containing high molecular weight containing proteins by directly adding amine or quaternary ammonium compounds to the solution in amounts sufficient to selectively precipitate the high molecular weight protein contaminants. The high molecular weight precipitates are removed and the solution is further processed to remove low molecular weight contaminating proteins and other non-protein contaminants. The recombinant protein is subsequently recovered and further processed to produce a protein composition suitable for its intended use.

Abstract: A method of and device for charging for copies made on a copying machine (12), by means of one of a number of accounting devices (3, 5, 7) being connectable to the copying machine (12) at the same time separately of one another. Charging is effected on the last accounting device (3; 5; 7) to be connected. To this end, the device is provided with a priority value counter (30, 31, 32) at each connection point (2, 4, 6). A priority value counter (30; 31; 32) is set to a highest priority value ("3") whenever an accounting device (3, 5 or 7 respectively) is connected to the associated connection point (2, 4 or 6 respectively) and is then set to a lower priority value ("2" or "1") when an accounting device (5; 7; 3) is connected to one of the other connection points (4; 6; 2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A lens assembly is formed by a curved dish or support member with piezo-electric transducers mounted on the concave outer surface. Flat mounting facets are machined on the outer surface to accommodate bonding between the transducer and the support member. A small concave focusing surface or lens for each transducer is machined on the concave inner surface of the support member directly opposite to the transducer and mounting facet. The focusing lenses are only slightly more convex than the inner surface of the support member, and the size of the focusing lenses is only a fraction of the size of the support member. Therefore, the path length of the energy from every point on every transducer to the invivo target region is almost identical. The energy arrives at the target region very closely in phase, forming a short pulse of maximum intensity.

Abstract: A system for the secure storage and transmission of data utilizes a visual algorithm to encode sensitive data in a secure manner onto a data card or other storage device. Whether a photograph or other image, data representing pixels are encoded by scrambling them one color at a time, with scrambling instructions being encoded in the pixels themselves. A character assigned to each color is used for additional verification of the authorization during decoding. In a preferred embodiment, the time of encoding is the basis for the characters assigned to respective colors.

Abstract: Sheet steel fibres which are essentially composed of a straight central section and end sections which are bent so as to form an approximate S-shape have hitherto been produced in two operating cycles. In this process, straight sheet steel strips are cut out of a sheet steel band in a first operating cycle and the fibres obtained in this way are deformed at their ends by subsequent punching or stamping. In the new manufacturing method described, deformation of the fibres is combined with the cutting to form a single operating cycle. To this end, a cutting edge outline is provided for the upper or lower cutter (3, 2), which outline is adapted to match the final shape desired. When sheet steel fibres with bent-down ends are to be produced, the cutting edge outline is composed of a central section which projects in the cutting direction and is parallel to the surface of the sheet steel band, and of end sections which spring back on both sides to form an undulating or flat S-shape. When a rotating cutting tool is used, individual groups of upper cutters (3) can be arranged axially alongside one another on a roller (1), so that a corresponding number of sheet steel fibres situated alongside one another can be produced from the end face of a fed sheet steel band (5) in combined stamping and cutting strokes which rapidly succeed one another. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A water purifier comprising an electrolytic cell (30) housed in an enclosure (34) and an attaching apparatus (16). The enclosure (34) attaches over an outlet fitting of a water circulation line in a swimming pool by the attaching apparatus. The attaching apparatus (16) and the enclosure (34) define apertures and outlet openings (38,39), respectively, having increasing areas in the direction of the water flow. This configuration increases flow rates through the apertures and outlet openings (38,39); the increased flow rates break off scale formations extending into the center of the apertures and outlet openings (38,39) and thereby prevent scale from clogging the purifier.

Abstract: A method for the rapid, simple and sensitive determination of polyamines in liquids, and a photometer for performing this method are described. A colour formation of the polyamines in a sample is determined by a nearly monochromatic light coming from a conventional LED and filtered by a coloured glass filter. The method supplies a linear concentration vs. transmission relation and may be used for the determination of polyamine concentrations between about 0.5 and 100 mg/l. The method is especially useful for the batchwise or continuous monitoring of polyamine concentrations in boiler water. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A stairwell, in a split or multi level home provides access to and air communication with lower-level, mid-level and upper-level rooms, resulting in a chimney effect of continuously drawing higher temperature and highest temperature room air from the lower-level room. Vertically directed downward axial fans of a room-air interceptor device, emplaced in the lower-level room at its ceiling and at its entrance to the stairwell, not only eliminates such chimney effect; but also intercepts and recirculates temperature-layered room air in the lower-level room, resulting from gravity circulation, to dissipate such temperature-layered room air to render the room air temperature in the lower-level room more uniform and, hence, more comfortable for human habitation and enjoyment.

Abstract: Digital FSK demodulators to be used in the telephone environment are disclosed. The demodulator according to one embodiment uses the sequential processing of a digital signal encoded in the fractional two's complement numeric representation.
