Title: Lock
Inventor: DEBUS JURGEN
IPC: E05B13/00
Filed: 1985-02-25
Granted: 1988-05-19
Abstract: A lock assembly for cabinet doors comprising a mounting plate attachable to the door panel and provided with a depression in its front face to receive a handle. The handle is connected to an operating shaft for a lock adjusting member in a spring loaded manner to cause the handle to be ejected from the depression pivoting about an axis perpendicular to the axis of rotation of the adjusting member. The hand lever is retained in and released from the depression by means of the lock assembly. The lock is installed in the mounting plate separate from the depression with the handle therein, and penetrates the door panel through an opening. The lock controls a slide adjustably disposed in the mounting plate by means of a detent element engaged in the depression, the detent element retaining the handle in the depression when the lock is in the locking position and releasing the handle which is ejected from the depression when the lock is in the unlocked position. This invention provides a lock assembly which has a small structural height, can easily be sealed, and has a conveniently and comfortably grippable handle.

Title: Method for naturation of somatotropin protein
Inventor: BENTLE LARRY ANDREW
IPC: C12R1/19
Filed: 1989-08-03
Granted: 1991-12-19
Abstract: A method for solubilization and naturation of somatotropin protein from refractile bodies of host cells is disclosed. The method embraces the discovery that an aqueous urea or dimethylsulfone solution can be effectively used to solubilize refractile bodies containing such somatotropin protein. Once solubilized, somatotropin protein can be natured in a urea or dimethylsulfone solution by contacting the solution with a mild oxidizing agent for a time sufficient to result in the formation of the disulfide bonds. Naturation can efficiently occur even at high protein concentration, in an impure preparation and in the absence of reducing agent.

Title: Coder for incorporating extra information in a digital audio signal having a predetermined format, decoder for extracting such extra information from a digital signal, device for recording a digital signal on a record carrier, comprising such a coder, and record carrier obtained by means of such a device
Inventor: VELDHUIS RAYMOND NICOLAAS JOHA
IPC: G10L19/018
Filed: 1989-11-10
Granted: 1992-08-06
Abstract: A coder for incorporating extra information in the form of an auxiliary signal in a digital audio signal having a predetermined format as well as a decoder for extracting this extra information from this digital signal, whilst the digital audio signal having the predetermined format is divided into frequency sub-bands, in which on the basis of psychoacoustic qualities of the human auditory system a relatively large amount of quantization noise is permissible, and the samples in each of these sub-bands are quantized relatively coarsely according to a preset criterion, whilst the quantized sub-band signals are summed with samples of the auxiliary signal, whose maximum amplitude is always smaller than a half quantization step of the relevant sample of the main signal; the summed sub-band signals are then reconstructed to a signal covering the entire frequency band, converted into a digital signal having the predetermined format and recorded or transmitted. In an unmodified receiver or reproducing device the original digital audio signal can be reproduced in a conventional way whereas the auxiliary signal remains masked. In a receiver or reproducing device comprising a decoder the signal is again divided into an equal number of frequency sub-hands in a way corresponding to that used in the coder and they are re-quantized according to the criterion applied in the coder. By subtracting per sub-band the quantized signal from the non-quantized signal, sub-bands of the auxiliary signal are formed, which are reconstructed into a replica of the complete original auxiliary signal. The coder can be employed in a device for recording a digital signal on the record carrier. Thus, record carriers can be obtained which are provided with a copy inhibit code and which are thus protected against unauthorized copying. If a signal containing such a copy inhibit code is to be recorded again this inhibit code is detected and recording can be inhibited, the signal to be recorded can be distorted seriously and/or the presence of the copy inhibit code can be signalled.
