Abstract: The locking device consists of a key (2) and a lock cylinder (1), with a cylinder core (5) which is rotatable in a casing (3) and has an axially extending channel (16) for insertion of a key (2) which passes through plate-shaped tumblers (7) arranged axially in succession so as to be displaceable in the cylinder core (5) and, with bit stages provided on the key shank (13), locates these tumblers (7) in a position releasing the rotation of the cylinder core (5). The locating displacement movement of the tumbler plates (7) is designed as a rotational movement round the axis of the key shank (13), and its range is preferably limited by stops (21, 22). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A baulkring-type synchronizer mechanism (18) includes cone clutch friction surfaces (24,48 and 26,50) and sets jaw clutch teeth (58,28 and 60,30) for frictionally synchronizing and positive connecting gears (14,16) to a shaft (12). Blocker teeth on baulkrings (40,42) prevent asynchronous engagement of the jaw clutch teeth and transmit operator shift forces (Fo) from a shift sleeve (34) to the cone clutches. Angled self-energizing surfaces (72a,72b,74a,74b) are affixed to an outer circumference of a hub (32) and engage angled self-energizing surfaces (76a,76b,76c,76d) affixed to a shift sleeve (34) to provide an additive force (Fa) that is transmitted via the blocker teeth to the cone clutches. The jaw clutch teeth include axially movable first and second sets of teeth (58,60) defined by the shift sleeve (34) and axially fixed sets of teeth (28,30) secured to the gears. When the sleeve is in a neutral position, the first and second sets of the teeth (58,60) are loosely disposed respectively in portions of grooves in hub (32). When one of the first and second sets of teeth (58,60) are engaged with one of the fixed sets of teeth, the other of the first and second sets is closely received in a portion of its associated groove. <IMAGE>

Abstract: In the case of this method, a CSMA/CA protocol can be used when transmitting information by means of infrared light or radio (or via other wire-free transmission media). For this purpose, a communication partner who has a transmission requirement and has still not received any bits is designated as the initiating communication partner, and a communication partner who has no transmission requirement but has received a bit is designated as the receiving communication partner. At the start of information transmission, the initiating communication partner sends a start bit (D), which expresses his identification, of twice the length and then waits for a specific time (tc) during which the receiving communication partner sends back an echo in the form of a start bit (B) of single length. The initiating communication partner waits for the echo after each transmitted bit and, when it arrives, compares it with the transmitted bit, interrupting his transmission in the event of inequality. After information transmission and when there is no further transmission requirement, the designation of the initiating communication partner and of the receiving communication partner is cancelled again. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An invention is described that permits the regulation of recombination in cells, organism or appropriate cell-free systems. The invention involves creating fusion proteins between recombinase proteins, or components of recombinase systems, and ligand binding domains derived from nuclear receptors. The fusion proteins show little recombinase activity in the absence of the ligand that binds to the ligand binding domain. Upon binding of the ligand, recombinase activity is induced. The invention provides a practical means to regulate recombination in cells and organisms and, by linking ligand binding to recombination, provides a simple means whereby ligand binding can be measured as recombination achieved.

Abstract: Improved method and apparatus for forming absorbent products and the improved absorbent products formed thereby are disclosed. In a first embodiment of the present invention, a rotary die (100) is used to cut ellipsoidal and hyperbolic-shaped portions (52, 54) from a single sheet of material (50) and these shapes are overlaid to form an absorbent structure. The shapes are chosen such that there is no waste of the material and yet the resulting absorbent structure is of a useful shape. Methods are also disclosed whereby two sets of rotary dies are used to simultaneously cut two sheets of material into an arcuate segment and the arcuate segments are overlaid atop each other to form useful absorbent structures. In either embodiment, powders such as superabsorbents may be added to one or more of the surfaces of the components used to construct the absorbent structures. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and means for opening a collapsed rectilinear carrier sleeve. As the collapsed sleeve is moved through a packaging machine it is partially opened so that the leading panel extends at an angle to the horizontal. A continuous upward force is then delivered to the leading panel to cause the leading panel to pivot up about its upstream fold line until it reaches the vertical. The collapsed sleeve is partially opened by elevating side flaps connected to an upper panel to cause the upper panel to be elevated. One way of accomplishing this is to cause the upper flaps to ride up over a fixed cam surface while lower flaps connected to a lower panel move under the cam to prevent the lower panel from moving in an upward direction.
