Abstract: Procédé et appareil destinés à la production de litharge. Selon ce procédé, du plomb fondu est mis en réaction avec de l'oxygène à une température supérieure au point de fusion de la litharge, permettant ainsi d'obtenir de la litharge sous forme d'un produit liquide. Selon un mode préféré de réalisation, de l'oxygène est injecté dans un bain contenant du plomb fondu de façon que la vitesse du gaz injecté, tandis qu'il se dilate dans le bain, est d'au moins Mach 1. Afin de minimiser la corrosion du réacteur, les parois de ce dernier sont composées d'un matériau thermoconducteur refroidi de l'extérieur, la chaleur étant extraite de la surface interne des parois afin de maintenir la température de ladite surface de préférence à un niveau inférieur au point de fusion de la litharge et, idéalement, à un niveau inférieur au point de fusion du plomb.

Abstract: Prodn. of liposomes or proliposomes comprises milling a mixt. suitable for their prodn. in an agitator-ball mill. The mill is a special type of ball mill in which homogenisation and size reduction is caused by forces which are transferred from the agitator to the freely moving balls, pref. made of glass, and thence to the material being processed.  The liposomes can be loaded with water or with vitamins, e.g. vitamins A, B complex, C, E and K, pharmaceuticals, e.g. diazepam, amphotericin B, econazole, corticoids, heparin and cisplatin as well as flavourants and odorants, e.g. citrus oil, peppermint oil, vanilla extract, cocoa flavour and tobacco flavour. In contrast to known procedures, including the use of rotor-stator homogenisation and liquid high-pressure homogenisation using e.g. microfluidisers or liquid slot nozzle homogenisers, the method can be operated readily on an industrial scale under mild conditions and using concentrated solns. to give prods. having a reproducible particle size in which any active agent present is uniformly dispersed.

Abstract: The distribution of a specific pressure in the ground-contacting area of a tyre (4) under examination is detected by means of a plurality of sensing cells (7) distributed on a plate-like support (8) applied to a rest surface (2) acted upon by the tyre through its rolling surface (5). Each sensing cell (7) sends an electric signal correlated with the specific pressure applied thereto to a processing unit (10) through which the processed signals are sent to a display device (12) graphically representing the distribution of the specific pressure in the ground-contacting area. By causing the tyre (4) to roll on the rest surface (2) and therefore the sensing cells (7), the dynamic variation of the specific pressures in the ground-contacting area can be detected. A protection sheet (11) interposed between the rolling surface of the tyre (4) and the sensing cells (7) protects the latter against risks of damages due to tangential shearing stresses produced at the ground-contacting area.

Abstract: A tibia fixturing device (10) comprises a metal tray (20) formed with annularly spaced recesses in its underside at a depth of at least about 1.5 mm and from which a stem depends for axial insertion into a tibia conical cavity. The stem (18) has a circular cylindrical portion proximal the tray (20) and a conical portion distal the tray. Fins (28) radially extend from the stem cylindrical portion and penetrate the tibia to provide some torsional resistance. Axially extending channels (36) are formed about the stem periphery which channels (36) have bottom surfaces parallel to the stem axis (32) to provide further torsional resistance. The channels (36) are arranged to not interlock with the cement in the axial direction to permit the cement to separate first from the device during axial removal of the device from the bone. The fins (28) have inclined edges (30) distal the tray (20) and inclined radial outer edges to align and center the stem (18) to the bone cavity edge. Cement in the tray recesses bonds the tray to a tibia resected surface to provide major torsional resistance of the tray (20) about the cavity longitudinal axis (19').

Head 2 shuts the flow of paint 11 to nozzle 1, when application of paint 11 is suspended, and guides to a place other than nozzle 1, at the same time sucks paint 11 staying in the inside of nozzle 1 and at the exit of slit 7 to sucking part 25 provided in inside of nozzle 1; when application of paint 11 is resumed, releases the flow of paint 11 to nozzle 1, at the same time returns paint 11 that was sucked in sucking part 25 to the inside of nozzle 1; thereby the starting edge and the ending edge of coated areas intermittently applied on the base material can be made to assume a straight line shape, and occurrence of the thicker coating at the starting edge is also prevented.

Abstract: Heavy metals, for example iron, are removed from aqueous solutions from photographic processes by passing the solutions through a bed containing a mixture of cationic and anionic exchange resins. Preferably the cationic exchange resin is a strongly acidic resin, for example in the protonated form, and the anionic exchange resin is a strongly basic resin, for example in the hydroxylated form. Preferably the proportions of cationic to anionic exchange resins in the mixture are in the range 60:40 to 40:60, the basis being by equivalents. The proces is particularly suitable for the removal of iron in the form of a chelate from the wash water from photographic development processes.

Abstract: A system and method for drawing non-opaque objects with realistic refraction attributes. The system adjusts the pixel values of an object with a refraction index other than unity so that the resulting image approximates a refracted image. Adjacent pixel values are copied and blended with the pixel being rendered based upon a calculated refraction value. Refraction can be approximated as a surface effect by offset vectors, as a property of an object having parallel front and back surfaces and as an arbitrary object with non-parallel opposing surfaces. The more complex representations provide improved approximations of the refracted image. The resulting image presents a more realistic view of the refracted image.

Abstract: A method and apparatus accesses relevant documents based on a query (230). A thesaurus of word vectors (242) is formed for the words in the corpus of documents (240). The word vectors represent global lexical co-occurrence patterns and relationships between word neighbors. Document vectors (246), which are formed from the combination of word vectors, are in the same multi-dimensional space as the word vectors. A singular value decomposition is used to reduce the dimensionality of the document vectors. A query vector (232) is formed from the combination of word vectors associated with the words in the query. The query vector and document vectors are compared to determine the relevant documents. The query vector can be divided into several factor clusters to form factor vectors. The factor vectors are then compared to the document vectors to determine the ranking (252) of the documents within the factor cluster.

Abstract: A navigation means for permitting a presenter to randomly access digitized foils with minimal audience distraction. The navigator includes an on-screen indicator with several fields in a narrow band format that identifies the specific digital foil currently displayed on a presentation medium and also identifies the other digitized foils in the same unit. Using a selector, such as a pointer or keystroke, the presenter can select any other digitized foil within the same unit to replace the current display. To move outside of a specific unit, the presenter simply selects a different unit in the same or a different section within the same module or a different module by selecting other fields displayed on the indicator, again by using a pointer or keystroke. The indicator itself may be hidden from view when not in use, and when in use, may be the same background colour as the displayed foil or even be entirely blocked from the audience's view to minimize audience distraction.
