Title: Polypeptides anti-congelateurs
Inventor: WARREN GARETH J
IPC: C07K14/00
Filed: 1990-05-10
Abstract: De nouveaux procédés permettent d'améliorer au moyen de polypeptides anti-congélateurs la résistance de matériaux organiques à la congélation. Ces polypeptides augmentent la durée de conservation de produits alimentaires et biologiques et protègent des produits végétaux, par exemple pendant leur croissance. On peut produire ces polypeptides anti-congélateurs, ou leurs protéines de fusion, par des techniques chimiques ou de recombinaison d'ADN, puis les purifier à des fins diverses.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB90/01579 Sec. 371 Date Apr. 9, 1992 Sec. 102(e) Date Apr. 9, 1992 PCT Filed Oct. 12, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO91/05972 PCT Pub. Date May 2, 1991.A light fitting for a high intensity source has a reflector (10) specifically adapted to give a beam of a predetermined shape. An aperture (16) is provided through the reflector at a zone where a majority of the light from the source and impinging on that zone is reflected back towards the source, and a fibre optic coupler (14) fitted the end of a fibre optic loom (15) is mounted to cooperate with the aperture, to receive light from the source and which would otherwise be reflected back to the source. The projected beam from the fitting is thus hardly affected, and the fibres of the loom can be arranged to provide distracting secondary sources in the vicinity of the fitting.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for cutting work pieces (19) of hard and brittle material. The device consists of two portals (1, 2) arranged at a distance from one another and a supporting beam (3) which connects these portals (1, 2) and carries circular saw blades (7a-7e) which are arranged one behind the other in a plane, are of identical thickness and have an increasing diameter, the work pieces (19) being moved from the entry side fitted with the saw blade (7a) of smallest diameter to the delivery side fitted with the saw blade (7e) of largest diameter and being provided with a parting cut of increasing depth. The invention is intended to enable this device to be used for work pieces of different height without having to load the work piece at a higher level and/or dismantle circular saw blades. This is achieved according to the invention by the supporting beam (3) being mounted at its delivery-side end in such a way as to be pivotable in the saw-blade plane. <IMAGE>

IPC: C23C14/34
Filed: 1991-09-07
Abstract: The invention relates to a sputtering cathode 1 in accordance with the magnetron principle, consisting of a target 11, having at least one part, and a magnet system which is arranged behind the target 11 and has a plurality of magnet units 14, 15, 16 which interlock and are essentially closed, of alternately different polarity, by means of which at least two magnetic tunnels, which are likewise inherently closed and interlock, are formed from field lines which are curved in the form of arcs. The magnetic field strength of one of these magnetic tunnels can be varied relative to the magnetic field strength of the other magnetic tunnel or tunnels by displacing one of the yoke parts 17b relative to the other yoke parts, via an adjusting device 21. This adjustment of the magnet units causes a change in the layer-thickness homogeneity of the layers which are produce by sputtering. The adjusting device can be controlled via an electrical circuit 32, 33, 34 which interacts with acoustic sensors 28a, 28b which are aligned on the erosion trenches 36 and record the ultrasound waves produced there during sputtering. The measurement signals which are obtained supply unambiguous information relating to the sputtering rate in the individual erosion trenches 36, and hence also about the layer-thickness homogeneity of the substrate which is about to be coated so that, with the aid of a control loop (10, 14, 28, 32, 33, 34), optimum homogeneity of the layer thickness is ensured. <IMAGE>

Abstract: When modules are interchanged when a bus system is in service, effects leading to scaling of the connecting contacts, to the destruction of module components or to interference with bus signals can occur because of the transfer of electrical power via the connecting contacts of the plug-in connections (SP1...SPn) of the modules (BG1...BGn) during the plugging-in or pulling of a module. Since bus signals can be interfered with even when the supply voltage is disconnected before the modules are interchanged, the bus system is inhibited before a module interchange action takes place. After the module interchange has been finished, the modules affected by the module interchange are quite selectively reinitialised. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention relates to a cabling machine for laying optofibres, cables or the like in an oscillating, wavy path around a smooth pull-reliever or into grooves of oscillating, wavy shape extruded around a pull-reliever, so-called S/Z-cabling. The machine includes a pull-reliever reeling-off device, a braking capstan, a fibre reeling-off device or devices, an S/Z-bench for laying the fibre/fibres around the pull-reliever, a yarn spinner for fixating the fibre/fibres on the pull-reliever, and a wheel capstan and a taking-up device for forwardly pulling and taking-up the finished cable respectively, the S/Z-bench including a laying-on tube provided with a laying-on head, wherein the fibre/fibres pass over the laying-on tube and up to and through holes in the laying-on head, where they are laid on the pull-reliever and fixated with yarn taken from the yarn spinner located immediately downstream of the laying-on head. According to a first aspect of the invention, the S/Z-bench (6) includes an aligning mechanism (13) which grips around and guides the pull-reliever (2), and a motor (15) which imparts an oscillating, rotational movement to the aligning mechanism via a transmission (14). The laying-on tube (11) is fixed to or connected to the transmission (14) which imparts an oscillatory, rotational movement to the laying-on tube in a direction opposite to the aligning mechanism (13). A sensor (17) is connected to the transmission (14) and controls rotational movement of the motor (15) and therewith of the laying-on tube (11) and/or the aligning mechanism (13), wherein rotational movement of the laying-on tube is restricted so that the fibre/fibres (5) will only be wound onto the laying-on tube (11) to a small extent. According to another aspect of the invention, the pull-reliever reeling-off device (1) and the braking capstan (3) are rotatably mounted and the laying-on tube (11) is freely rotatable and guided by the action of laying the fibre/fibres (5) into the grooves in the pull-reliever (2). The laying-on tube (11) is connected to the transmission (14) and a sensor (17) is connected to the transmission and functions to detect rotation of the laying-on tube (11) caused by the oscillating waveshape of the grooves and causes the reeling-off device (1) and the braking capstan (3) to rotate to perform a correcting function and therewith counteract excessive rotation of the laying-on tube (11) so that the grooves in the pull-reliever (2) in the vicinity of the laying-on head will extend substantially rectilinearly and such that the fibre/fibres (5) extend substantially parallel with the laying-on tube.

Title: Improved spray nozzle design.
Inventor: SPINK DONALD R
IPC: B05B7/08
Filed: 1991-09-03
Abstract: Novel cluster nozzle designs useful for the formation of atomized sprays of fine liquid droplets in a continuous gas phase are described. A plurality of individual gas-liquid mixing zones communicate with a common source of liquid and a common source of gas to form gas-liquid mixtures for spraying from individual orifices in the nozzle. An improved uniformity of spray pattern is attained, as well as the ability to effect a greater liquid output from the nozzle through the use of larger size or numbers of orifices, while retaining very uniform sprays, by effecting a degree of premixing of liquid and gas before passage to the individual gas-liquid mixing zones.

Abstract: A synthetic diamond wafer (12) grown by deposition from a plasma has a smooth, substrate side face (16) and a rough, deposition side face (14). The rough face (14) is coated with a bonding agent (18) which fills the valleys and is finished so that its surface is parallel too the substrate side face to permit photolithographic processing of the wafer (12). Also disclosed is a multi-wafer laminate (20) of two or more diamond film layers (22, 24) bonded together with an interlayer (26). Smooth, flat outer faces (28) of the layers (22, 24) are oriented mutually parallel. The inner, bonded faces (30) may be rough. A filler of diamond particles (38) in the bonding agent (36) improves the thermal conductivity of the laminate (20).
