Abstract: La présente invention concerne un commutateur électrique (1) destiné à des outils électriques manuels tels que des perceuses, des meuleuses d'angle, des scies circulaires, des défonceuses, des taille-haies ou analogue. Ledit commutateur comprend au moins un système de contact (3) qui présente un contact de commutation (4) pouvant se déplacer, de manière à effectuer une commutation, entre deux positions de commutation, à savoir entre une position ouverte et une position fermée, ainsi qu'un contact fixe (5) interagissant avec le contact de commutation (4) en position fermée. Le commutateur (1) comprend un organe de commande (6) agissant sur le contact de commutation (4) dans le but de réaliser la commutation. Dans le commutateur (1) se trouve un élément de retardement (8) qui est en liaison active avec le contact de commutation (4) afin de retarder le mouvement de commutation dans au moins l'une des positions de commutation, en particulier dans la position fermée. L'élément de retardement (8) et l'organe de commande (6) se trouvent du même côté du système de contact (3). De manière alternative ou complémentaire, la liaison active entre l'élément de retardement (8) et le contact de commutation (4) diminue lors du mouvement de commutation du contact de commutation (4) dans l'autre position de commutation, en particulier dans la position ouverte, de sorte que le contact de commutation (4) passe à l'autre position de commutation de manière sensiblement non retardée.

Abstract: Power amplifier mode control and an associated switching arrangement permit a wireless communications device, such as a mobile terminal, to advantageously use the same transmitter power amplifier in both digital and analog operating modes. Analog mode requires the mobile terminal to operate its receiver and transmitter in full-duplex mode, thus requiring a duplexer for separating the receive signal from the transmit signal. Digital mode requires the mobile terminal to operate its receiver and transmitter in half-duplex mode, eliminating the need for the duplexer. In a basic implementation, the mobile terminal includes a switching arrangement allowing the duplexer to be switched in and out of the power amplifier transmit path. For reasons of signal requirements and operating efficiency, the mobile terminal adjusts the operating point of the power amplifier such that it operates linearly or quasi-linearly when in the mobile terminal is in digital mode. When in analog mode, the mobile terminal switches in the duplexer and adjusts the operating point of the power amplifier such that it operates non-linearly (saturated). Because the power output increase of the power amplifier in changing from digital mode to analog mode essentially matches the power loss increase of switching in the duplexer, the overall power output of the mobile terminal remains substantially the same.

Abstract: The invention provides a method and apparatus for detection of binding of biological and/or chemical components of liquid or gaseous mixtures and solutions, which are mainly of biological origin and/or determine parameters of living activity of biological objects, to substances that bind the said components due to a biological, chemical or physical interaction; and analysis of mixtures and solutions to determine presence of biological and/or chemical components.  Binding substances are arranged on a surface of or inside a sensor layer, which changes its thickness due to the binding being detected; the layer is affected by the light of different wavelengths; a signal due to interference on the sensor layer is registered in the reflected or transmitted light. The signal is represented by a spectrum; the sensor layer is more than 10 micrometers thick and exceeds the maximum-recorded wavelength by at least an order of magnitude; information about the binding being detected is obtained from analysis of a spectral shift of interference maximums and minimums. A plate, solid or porous, or a gap with two surfaces of a solid optical material is used as the sensor layer. As the surfaces are located at a distance of more than 10 micrometers, this allows pumping liquids through the gap at moderate pressure drops and investigating large biological objects (e.g., cells), or employment of affordable plates that are rigid enough without any substrate. The indicated thickness of the plate or the gap permits using of the superluminescent diodes or tunable semiconductor lasers as light sources, because it allows recording within their narrow spectrums a sufficient number of interference maxima and minima for precise registration of molecular binding reactions, which lead to much higher signal-to-noise ratio and sensitivity of the apparatus as compared with apparatus based on thin-film sensor layers.

Abstract: The present invention concerns a method for the detection of an analyte in a droplet of fluid comprising the steps of providing a solid phase with a hydrophobic surface comprising at least one capture zone on which at least one binding agent with affinity for the analyte is immobilized, applying said droplet to the surface of said solid phase, applying a force that makes the droplet travel along the surface of said solid phase along a predetermined path thereby allowing the droplet to repeatedly contact said binding agent on the capture zone, applying conditions wherein said analyte is allowed to bind to said binding agent and detecting a complex of analyte and binding reagent at the position of the capture zone. The effect of a moving droplet is that the reactants in the droplet are well mixed which eliminates the risk of diffusion limitation. Such advantageous mixing is not obtained with conventional assays in which the surface is continuously exposed to the liquid. The use of a droplet eliminates the need for external mixing and also circumvents the need to dilute the sample in order to obtain sufficient volume to wet a large surface area.
