Abstract: An apparatus for continuous, gravimetric metering and mass flow determination of flowable materials includes a metering device that is configured to determine instantaneous mass flow at an anticipatory control point ahead of a delivery point at which flowable material is discharged. The discharge of the flowable material is controllable by altering a speed of rotation of the metering device. A metering controller is connected to the metering device and configured to detect an actual speed of rotation. Discharge at the delivery point is regulated in dependence on mass flow deviations at the metering device by variable location of the anticipatory control point.

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus and a method for marshalling out individual objects ( 1 ) from a row of such objects ( 1 ). The apparatus includes two pusher arms ( 8 ) placed one on each side of the row of objects ( 1 ). The apparatus also includes two arrest pins ( 20, 21 ) on either side of the row, one front ( 20 ) and one rear ( 21 ). The apparatus further includes a linkage ( 13 ) on each side of the row, axially connected to a pusher arm ( 8 ) and interconnected with each other via a spring ( 14 ), respectively. The pusher arms ( 8 ) are moved, in a closed position, forwards with the aid of a piston and cylinder assembly ( 19 ) and, in this movement, marshal out the first object ( 1 ) in the row. Thereafter, the pusher arms ( 8 ) open in that they enter into abutment against the front arrest pin ( 20 ). The linkage ( 13 ) ensures that the pusher arms ( 8 ) assume an open position. The pusher arms ( 8 ) thereafter move backwards in the open position with the aid of the piston and cylinder assembly ( 19 ). When the pusher arms ( 8 ) enter into abutment against the rear arrest pin ( 21 ), they begin to close and the linkages ( 13 ) ensure that the pusher arms ( 8 ) assume a closed position, whereafter the operational cycle may be repeated.

Abstract: A system and method for generating sample points that can generate the sample points in parallel. The sample points can be used in processing in parallel, with the results subsequently collected and used as necessary in subsequent rendering operations. Sample points are generated using a coarse Halton sequence, which makes use of coarse radical inverse values Phi<SUB>b</SUB><SUP>i,M</SUP>(j) as follows: <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>Phi<SUB>b</SUB><SUP>i,M</SUP>(j)=Phi<SUB>b</SUB>(jM+i)<?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> where base "b" is preferably a prime number, but not a divisor of "M," and "i" is an integer. Using this definition, the s-dimensional coarse Halton sequence U<SUB>S</SUB><SUP>CHal,i,M</SUP>, which may be used to define sample points for use in evaluating integrals, is defined as <?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="lead"?>U<SUB>s</SUB><SUP>CHal,i,M</SUP>=(Phi<SUB>b1</SUB><SUP>i,M</SUP>(j), . . . , Phi<SUB>b</SUB><SUB><SUB2>s</SUB2></SUB><SUP>i,M(</SUP>j))<?in-line-formulae description="In-line Formulae" end="tail"?> where b<SUB>1</SUB>, . . . , b<SUB>s </SUB>are the first "s" prime numbers that are not divisors of "M." Each value of "i" defines a subsequence that is a low-discrepancy sequence, and so can be used in connection with processing. Similarly, the union of all subsequences for all values of "i" between "zero" and "M-1" is also a low-discrepancy sequence, so results of processing using the coarse Halton sequences for all such values of "i" can be collected together and used in the same manner as if the results had been generated using a Halton sequence to define the sample points.

This method for detecting an analyte in specimens comprises steps of: bringing a labeled reagent containing a ligand that specifically binds to the analyte into contact with a specimen; and supplying the mixture of the specimen and the labeled reagent to a solid-phase support onto which a capture reagent that specifically binds to the analyte has been immobilized, wherein the step of bringing the specimen into contact with the labeled reagent is carried out at a site that is not on the solid-phase support and that is detached from the solid-phase support. The invention also provides a detection apparatus comprising a solid-phase support onto which a capture reagent that specifically binds to the analyte in the specimen is immobilized and a kit for detecting an analyte in a specimen and a device for supplying a specimen comprising a labeled reagent containing a ligand that specifically binds to the analyte.
