Abstract: A method is described for facilitating the operation of terminals which are provided with an input keyboard to whose function keys fixed and/or variable functions can be assigned and with a display device on which a text explaining the function of the function keys can be represented. A method of this type is intended to require fewer key actuations and to result in optimised user guidance. For this purpose, it is provided that both the activation for the performance of the function concerned and the activation of the display of the function concerned are executed simply with the aid of the function key concerned and that the selection of the two activation possibilities is affected by the manner and/or extent of the actuation of the function key concerned. It is furthermore provided that the user facilities which are possible or executable in the respective current operating mode of the terminal can be represented by the display device either in groups or individually by actuating the help key. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A solvent-free method for synthesizing an ethereally-substituted, blocked monosaccharide comprising the steps of:   1) mixing, in the absence of solvent, a partially blocked monosaccharide unblocked at one position, an alkyl halide or a substituted alkyl halide, and an anhydrous alkali base; 2) heating the mixture to a temperature sufficient to allow the mixture to react; 3) maintaining the mixture at a suitable temperature for a time sufficient to form an ethereally-substituted blocked monosaccharide and drive off any water produced; 4) removing any unreacted alkyl halide or substituted alkyl halide from the mixture; 5) recovering the ethereally-substituted blocked monosaccharide product from the mixture; and, optionally, 6) selectively hydrolyzing the ethereally-substituted blocked monosaccharide product to remove one or more of the acetal blocking groups. e

Abstract: Une chambre de mélange (3) et une chambre d'admission de gaz (5) sont concentriquement agencées dans un boîtier fermé (1) et mutuellement séparées par une cloison (7) tubulaire pourvue de micropores. Un courant d'un milieu liquide moussant est axialement introduit dans la chambre de mélange (3) par une pompe (21). En même temps, de l'air comprimé par un compresseur (23) est introduit, dans la chambre d'admission de gaz (5) à travers un orifice d'admission (17) ménagé dans le boîtier, sous une telle pression que l'air peut pénétrer dans la chambre de mélange (3) à travers les micropores de la cloison tubulaire (7). La cloison (7) qui entoure la chambre de mélange et la paroi circonférentielle (9) sont montées interchangeables entre deux brides (11 et 12). Le profil de la section transversale d'orifices axiaux d'admission et de sortie (15 et 16) est adapté à la section transversale cylindrique de la chambre de mélange (3), de sorte qu'un courant laminaire, essentiellement parallèle à l'axe des chambres, de mélange moussant s'écoule à travers la chambre de mélange (3) pendant le fonctionnement du dispositif.

Abstract: A foot section for a birthing bed has a central panel and two lateral plates that function, in an inclined attitude, as footrests and in a vertical attitude as posts for receiving calf supports. The calf supports are stored in holsters on the underside of the footrests. The mattress is in three sections, with the outboard sections being hinged to a central section so as to be swung upwardly upon the central section thereby exposing the footrests without having to remove the whole foot section. The central panel can be removed with the mattress and is adapted to be stood on its end for temporary storage, thereby conserving floor space.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/AU92/00502 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 12, 1993 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 12, 1993 PCT Filed Sep. 21, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/06399 PCT Pub. Date Apr. 1, 1993.A pilot-operated diaphragm valve adapted to deliver a compressed air pulse from its outlet includes a valve top and valve trigger sub-assembly that cooperate to cycle a flexible diaphragm of the valve toward and away from a diaphragm seat by application of an electric solenoid or external pneumatic pulse applied to the valve trigger. The valve top and trigger sub-assembly enclose a reciprocable hollow plunger that normally is held against a seat at its lower end by a reciprocable solid plunger supported for sliding movement above the hollow plunger in a sealed tube and biased by a spring into engagement with the hollow plunger. Activation of the solenoid or external pneumatic signal pulse drives the solid plunger out of engagement with the hollow plunger which in turn unseats producing low pressure above the diaphragm. The low pressure unseats the diaphragm allowing a high energy pulse of air to escape past the diaphragm through the outlet. Deactivation of the solenoid causes the solid plunger, hollow plunger, and diaphragm to return to their seated positions to stop the flow of air through the outlet.

Abstract: A description is given of a shuttering for shuttering end surfaces (1c) of two neighbouring concrete structural-part portions (1), having a shuttering wall (3) containing an expanded-metal panel (3a, 3b). Through the end surfaces (1c) of the two concrete-part portions (1) there extends a longitudinal reinforcement (9a, 9b) at a distance from, and essentially parallel to, an adjacent surface (1a, 1b) of the concrete part. In order to be able to produce a shuttering of this type more easily, the invention proposes to produce the shuttering wall (3) from an expanded-metal panel (5) which is reinforced by structural bars (6, 7) which are welded on in a grid-like manner, bars (6) running in the longitudinal direction being arranged on one side of the expanded-metal panel (5) and bars (7) running in the transverse direction being arranged on the other side, to use a grid mat as reinforcement (9a, 9b) and to extend the expanded-metal panel (5) through the grid mat (9a, 9b), to such an extent that a free edge terminates essentially in that surface plane of the grid mat (9a, 9b) which is directed towards the adjacent surface (1a, 1b) of the structural-part portion (1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A vasoocclusive coil has a proximal end and a distal end, and carries an enlarged member at its proximal end. A pusher has a proximal end and a distal end, and a radial keyway at its distal end that receives the coil's enlarged member in interlocking engagement. At least one element is carried coaxially about the pusher and coil, that is axially movable relative to the pusher and coil from a first position at which the element encloses the member interlocked within the keyway to maintain the member within the keyway, to a second position. Here the element does not enclose the interlocked member and radial keyway, and the member is free to withdraw from the radial keyway and thus uncouple the pusher and coil.

Abstract: In a pencil consisting of a solid lead and of a lead casing, the binder used at least in the casing material is Polystyrol. In addition, the casing material contains talcum-filled LDPE, thus improving the sharpenability of the casing material and its adherence to the lead material. It is also proposed to use talcum-filled Polystyrol. The proportion of Polystyrol lies from 60 to 70 % by weight, of the talcum-filled LDPEs from 20 to 40 % by weight. Standard Polystyrol or HIPS Is also used for the lead material. Both the casing material and the lead material are extruded, an endothermally acting blowing agent being added to the Polystyrol only when the latter is already in the extruder.

Abstract: Although sodium percarbonate obtained by crystallisation processes has a high dissolving speed (rate of dissolution), it has at the same time a moderate abrasion resistance. According to the invention, the abrasion resistance can be increased by spraying the percarbonate with an aqueous sodium percarbonate solution or an aqueous hydrogen peroxide solution and an aqueous sodium percarbonate solution in a fluidised bed at a fluidised-bed temperature in the range from 40 to 95 DEG C. Sodium percarbonate prepared according to the invention and having an amount of shell (encapsulation layer) between 3 and 10% by weight has a high abrasion resistance with at the same time a high dissolving speed.
