Abstract: A multi-directional track (52,54) and trolley system for movably supporting wall panels in which the track includes spaced track flanges (28) forming a track slot and at least one track intersection having a curved track element with a curved edge. The trolley includes radial support wheels (24) rotatably mounted in laterally spaced tandem pairs on a frame for rotation about spaced parallel horizontal axes. The trolley is provided with guide rollers (36) adjacent each end thereof and rotatable about vertical axes and a centrally disposed panel supporting member which depend from the trolley body and are positioned in the track slot (32). The trolley entering an intersection can exit from the intersection in any of at least two directions without stopping. While changing its direction of travel, the guide rollers engage the flange edges. Diverter pins can be provided on the trolley and are associated with diverter blades at intersections to assure that the trolleys will always follow the same route.

Abstract: An apparatus for producing a planar plasma in a low pressure process gas includes a chamber (12) and an external planar coil (20). Radiofrequency resonant current is induced in the planar coil which in turn produces a planar magnetic field within the enclosure. The magnetic field causes circulating flux of electrons which in turn produces a planar region of ionic and radical species. The system may be used for plasma treatment of a variety of planar articles, typically semiconductor wafers which are oriented parallel to the plasma within the enclosure.

Title: Aerobic wastewater treatment with alkalinity control
IPC: C02F3/12
Filed: 1990-07-13
Granted: 1993-03-24
Abstract: Aerobic wastewater treatment processes are controlled utilizing alkalinity measurements. A base line of alkalinity is determined by measuring the alkalinity profile of the influent to the aerobic wastewater treatment process. The alkalinity of the wastewater is sensed at a number of different points (1-8) in the aerobic wastewater treatment process, such as at a clarifier (12, 42) effluent (13, 43) and sludge exit (14, 44), aeration zone (15, 46), and aerobic digester (17, 49) effluent. When the sensed alkalinity at any given point is above a predetermined amount over base line alkalinity, the air supply (28, 52; 29, 53) is increased and/or the concentration of microbes and food is reduced (as by increasing the sludge withdrawal rate from a clarifier) until the sensed alkaline level is stabilized. When the sensed alkalinity is below a predetermined amount under base line, the air supply is decreased and/or the concentration of feed and microbes increased (as by reducing or terminating sludge withdrawal from a clarifier) until the sensed alkalinity level is stabilized. Anaerobic odors are eliminated, plant operation and efficiency is improved, settling is improved, there is enhanced removal from the secondary clarifier (16), and solids carryover is reduced increasing the quality of effluent from the clarifier.

Abstract: A liposome composition for localizing an anti-tumor compound to a solid tumor via the bloodstream. The liposomes, which contain the agent in entrapped form, are composed of vesicle-forming lipids and between 1-20 mole percent of a vesicle-forming lipid derivatized with hydrophilic biocompatible polymer, and have sizes in a selected size range between 0.07 and 0.12 microns. After intravenous administration, the liposomes are taken up by the tumor within 24-48 hours, for site-specific release of entrapped compound into the tumor. In one composition for use in treating a solid tumor, the compound is an anthracycline antibiotic drug which is entrapped in the liposomes at a concentration of greater than about 50  mu g agent/ mu mole liposome lipid. The method results in regression of solid colon and breast carcinomas which are refractory to anthracycline antibiotic drugs administered in free form or entrapped in conventional liposomes.

Abstract: A material for electrical wirings provided with a cooling function. The material is characterized in that it comprises a slender hollow conductor (1) in which an operating liquid is sealed. Preferably, pieces (3) for electric connections are provided on the end parts or other parts of the hollow conductor (1). By such a configuration, when used for the wirings of electrical apparatuses, by virtue of the heat radiation due to the action of the operating liquid in the hollow conductor (1), there is no necessity to provide other cooling means in the electrical apparatuses, and the material for electrical wirings can contribute to the reduction of the size of the electrical apparatus. Also, this invention relates to a transformer in which the material for electrical wirings is used for the coil on its low voltage side. Since the coil heated by the large current flowing through it dessipates the heat by itself, there is no necessity to provide other coiling means.

Abstract: In the package, a transversely extending cardboard strip (5) is fixed to an elongate cardboard strip (1), intended to enclose the packaged article, such as for example a book (2), approximately at the middle of the mutually opposite edges, from which cardboard strip (5) two inner flaps (7, 8) are formed by tearing open a perforation line (6). The regions adjoining within the cardboard strip (1) on both sides of the inner flaps (7, 8) form outer flaps (13, 14) which are subsequently wrapped around the packaged article onto the inner flaps. One of the outer flaps (13) possesses, as a rapid closure, a self-adhesive layer (16), from which it is only necessary to pull off a protective backing (17) in order to close the package so securely that it cannot be non-destructively reopened at the adhesive joint. Therefore the outer flap (13) has, for the removal of the packaged article, a perforation line (19) extending, from a central hole (18), obliquely outwards to both sides and as far as the inner flaps (7, 8), so that the flap section (20) lying inwards from this line can be easily torn open in order to extract the packaged article sideways. A self-adhesive layer (21) which is present on this tear-open flap section permits, after removal of a protective backing (22), re-closing of the package previously torn open at the perforation line, which in this manner is multiply reusable. <IMAGE>
