IPC: B01L3/00
Filed: 2000-04-28
Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for performing analyses on cell-cultures (2) which are present in a liquid culture medium (4). The device has at least one receptacle (3) for receiving the culture medium containing the cell-culture. One or more sensors (6) are provided for the cell-culture readings and the receptacle (3) has at least one access opening for supplying and evacuating the liquid culture medium (4). A separating element (7) can be introduced into the receptacle which is open at the top and moved into position in close proximity to the base. In this position, said separating element delimits a sub-chamber which has a reduced volume (8) in relation to the total receiving volume of the receptacle. In addition, at least one flow channel (9) is provided, which on one side adjoins the reduced-volume sub-chamber (8) and on the other adjoins a reservoir chamber (14). The sensor(s) (6) are arranged in the area of the reduced-volume sub-chamber.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un récipient auto-chauffant (10) pourvu d'une cavité interne (22) destinée à son contenu et d'une cavité externe (20) destinée à un système de chauffe, constitué par exemple de première et seconde matières réagissant chimiquement qui sont disposées pour être mélangées, quand on veut déclencher le système de chauffe. Un dispositif de fermeture (30) ferme la cavité externe (20). Lorsqu'on actionne le système de chauffe pour mélanger les produits chimiques, on provoque une réaction exothermique, de la vapeur, telle que de la buée ou de l'air chaud est produit. Le dispositif de fermeture (30) comporte une bride d'étanchéité annulaire (100) qui met en contact un rebord annulaire (102) du récipient. Ladite bride (100) crée un joint étanche avec la cavité externe vis-à-vis de l'air environnant et maintient la réactivité des produits chimiques à l'intérieur de ladite cavité. Toutefois, la bride d'étanchéité (100) est enlevée du rebord (102), lorsque la génération de vapeur fait augmenter la pression dans la cavité externe (20), la vapeur est alors éventée dans l'atmosphère.

Abstract: A method for controlling a steam turbine with a steam bleed for various operational tasks is provided. The operational tasks are each characterized by the type of the controlled variables used for controlling the steam turbine. A control structure is used for deriving actuating signals for actuating elements for valves. The actuating signals are derived from control signals of the regulators which are used. Only a single control structure is used for all the operational tasks. As a result, the configuration of the control is simplified, the control signals are decoupled, and a smooth changeover between the operational tasks is achieved. A device for controlling a steam turbine is also provided.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for treating disc herniation provide a conformable device which assumes a first shape associated with insertion and a second shape or expanded shape to occlude the defect which typically follows partial discectomy. The device may take different forms including patches size to cover the defect or plugs adapted to fill the defect. In a preferred embodiment, however, the device is a gel or other liquid or semi-liquid which solidifies to occlude the defect from within the body of the disc itself. In another preferred embodiment, a mesh screen is collapsed into an elongated form for the purposes of insertion, thereby minimizing the size of the requisite incision while avoiding delicate surrounding nerves. Such a configuration also permits the use of instrumentation to install the device, including, for example, a hollow tube or sheath adapted to hold the collapsed screen, and a push rod to expel the collapsed device out of the sheath for use in occluding the disc defect. A device may further include one or more anchors to assist in permanently affixing the device with respect to the defect.

Abstract: A communications system (100) includes an aircraft (120) that acts as a repeater between ground equipment (101) and communication units (128) on the ground. The ground equipment (101) includes multiple base transceiver stations (104, 106, 108) that provide traffic channels, control channels, and access channels. The channels are all in a single beam (124) projected from aircraft (120). Relative loading on access channels is influenced by access class lists (200, Fig. 2) assigned to control channels. Access classes can be transferred from one list to another, or they can be removed from a list. Relative loading of traffic channels on the base transceiver stations is influenced by assigning different time offsets to each base transceiver station so that calls can be transferred from one base transceiver station to another.

Abstract: A protective device against fault currents includes a triggering arrangement for performing at least the functions of detecting a fault current and/or triggering power-down of the network to be protected. The triggering arrangement, outside the most strict quartic curve (A), corresponds to the protection of persons in case of indirect contact, and below the triggering quartic curve (B), corresponds to protection against fire. The triggering quartic curve (B) satisfies the relationship: ILimit(f)/IDELTAn=F(f)=B=const., wherein ILimit(f)=WFire/UNetwork. In the relationships, ILimit(f) represents the limit fault current permissible for the corresponding frequency, where there is still no risk of fire; IDELTAn represents the nominal triggering fault current at the frequency of the network taking into consideration the protection of persons; WFire represents the power limit in watt required for protection against fire; UNetwork represents the network voltage to be protected and F(f) represents what is called the frequency factor.

Abstract: Screen control means 106 determines a priority order,
a magnification or reduction rate, and an image synthesis
position. Image selection means 101 selects a plurality
of input images in conformity with the priority order,
and image processing means 102 magnifies or reduces the
selected images in proportion to the magnification or
reduction rate. Movement detection means 103 detects
stationary parts of images to be processed in the image
processing means 102, and frequency analysis means 104
detects featureless parts of the images to be processed
in the image processing means 102. Adapted image synthesis
means 105 synthesizes the magnified or reduced images at
an image synthesis position designated by the movement
detection means 103 and the frequency analysis means 104.
Thereby, even if an image of an object to be displayed
is added besides an opposite station image and a self image,
the images can effectively be synthesized and displayed.
Even if the resolution of a display apparatus is changed,
an image generation apparatus can flexibly cope with the
change. And, it can be prevented that a child screen hides
an important part of a parent screen from sight.
