Title: Method for hla dp typing.
Inventor: ERLICH HENRY A
IPC: C12Q1/68
Filed: 1989-05-18
Abstract: A process for determining the genotype of an individual with respect to the alleles at the HLA DP locus involves obtaining a sample of nucleic acid from the individual, and hybridizing the nucleic acids with a panel of probes specific for variant segments of DPalpha and DPbeta genes. Because the variation between DPbeta alleles is highly dispersed throughout the second exon of the DPbeta gene, the discovery of many different DPbeta alleles makes the process far more discriminating and informative than cellular, RFLP, or serological methods. The process can also be carried out on amplified nucleic acid produced by the polymerase chain reaction using primers specific for the second exon of the DPalpha and DPbeta genes. HLA DP DNA typing methods are useful in the prevention of graft rejection and host versus graft disease, in determining susceptibility to autoimmune diseases, in providing evidence concerning the derivation from an individual of forensic samples, and in paternity testing.

Title: Method and apparatus for increasing the definition of an ntsc video signal using an augmentation channel.
Inventor: LUCAS KEITH
IPC: H04N11/24
Filed: 1989-07-28
Abstract: A method for increasing the definition of an NTSC video signal using an augmentation channel involves the generation of both a line summation signal as well as a line difference signal. From the line summation signal, a horizontal detail signal may be derived which may be diagonally filtered and added to a diagonally filtered vertical detail signal and transmitted in a bandwidth of approximately 2.5 mega-hertz. Furthermore, the line summation signal may be applied for the derivation of a standard NTSC video signal which is transmitted separately from the augmentation channel. Decoder apparatus comprises a single digital diagonal filter having complimentary output functions resulting in both improved horizontal and vertical resolution at low cost.

Abstract: Parisons of glass are pressed between a hollow mould and a plunger (10). The mould has an inner wall which is complementary to the outer side of a parison. The plunger (10) has an open-pored plunger head (11) with a surface (24) which is complementary to the inner side of the parison and an inner cavity (15) which is filled with a liquid. During each working cycle, a portion of the liquid evaporates due to heat transfer from the glass to the plunger head (11) on the surface (24) of the latter, producing a separating layer of vapour between the latter surface and the glass. The liquid pressure in the cavity (15) of the plunger head (11) is in each case adapted to the pressing pressure prevailing in the glass during pressing, until the glass has reached its dimensional stability required for withdrawing the plunger head (11).

Abstract: The invention relates to an improved joint between lining support plate and friction lining in the case of disc brake friction linings. This is achieved by a substrate which is modified with an adhesive and is applied as granules between friction lining and adhesive-coated support plate. During production, the lining is precompressed by a multi-stage compression at 5 to 15 MPa before hot pressing at 120 to 180 DEG C. The brake lining thus obtained is distinguished by higher shear strength and improved shearing characteristics.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a wire belt fastener (10) formed from a piece of wire (11) to have a wire body having a pair of arms (30,32) joined by a U-shaped hinge pin section (34). The ends of the wire are flattened (31,33) to form wide areas having grooves (44,46) to receive the head (78) and to the bent ends (80,82) of a staple (72). The fasteners are aligned in a juxtaposed array by a connector wire (26) or rod extending normal to the arms and spanning across a series of belt fasteners to space them evenly to receive interdigitated hinge loops of another array of belt fasteners. A belt stop (38) comprising a projecting piece of wire is secured to an inner surface of one arm (32) of the wire belt fastener to be abutted by the cut belt end (16) to limit its insertion into the gap between the arms of the wire belt fastener. To reduce the lateral width of the belt fasteners and to place more metal in the splice, the wire cross-section at the hinge loop is substantially oblong with flat faces (43a,45a) of adjacent, intermeshed fasteners being side by side. The wire body is oblong in shape except for the flattened ends without having to cut away metal from the wire body and scraping the severed metal. When bending the wire into a U-shape, the interior hemispherical surface becomes wider than the outer hemispherical surface at the hinge loop.

Abstract: A coupling for either rigidly or flexibly connecting the adjacent ends of a pair of aligned pipes (13, 14) is formed of a circular casing (10) made of a pair of aligned, semi-circular segments (11, 12) which surround a resilient pipe gasket (23). The opposite ends of the segments have radially outwardly extending lugs (25) which form pairs of overlapping fastening lugs. The lugs (25) of at least one pair each have transversely aligned bolt holes (28) and opposed sockets that are generally concentric with the bolt holes (28) and open towards each other. A bolt (30) extending through the sockets and bolt holes fasten the lugs (25) together and cause the segments (11, 12) to clamp radially inwardly towards the pipes (13, 14) for coupling the pipes together with some permissible flexibility of relative movement. A plug (40) having opposite end portions and a central bolt hole (43) is removably fitted within the opposed lug sockets, with the bolt extending through its central bolt hole. The plug end portions are offset from each other in an axial direction, relative to the axis of the coupling, so that tightening a nut on the bolt wedges the overlapped pair of lugs apart in an axial direction for causing the segments to clamp axially and radially against the pipes and rigidly hold them against relative movement.

Abstract: A chopper (41), in an infrared imaging system, is used to scatter infrared radiation from a viewed scene (11). This scattered radiation is detected with an infrared detector (14) and used to produce a reference signal, which represents the uniform average radiance of the scene. This reference signal may be subtracted from a signal representing the unscattered radiation emitted by the scene, to produce a signal that represents only radiance differences and that is an optimal signal for amplification.

The successive segments sampled are then summed with previously summed segments to produce a stabilized image of the waveform. The generation of the stabilized image is a data-driven process and one which is sensitive and responsive to periodic characteristics of the waveform and hence is particularly useful in the analysis of sound waves and in speech recognition systems.
