Abstract: The thread cutting diestock assembly comprises a ratchet housing (20) having a bore (22) adapted to selectively and detachably receive a large thread cutting die head or an adaptor ring (12), each of which is provided with ratchet teeth (44) engaged by the end (38) of a pawl on the ratchet housing (20) so as to be rotatable therewith. The adaptor ring (12) has a polygonal bore (48) adapted to detachably receive a small thread cutting die head (14) which interengages with the polygonal bore (48) to preclude relative rotation between the die head (14) and adaptor ring (12). A circumferentially extending groove (58) in the adaptor ring bore (48) carries a polygonal split retaining spring ring (18) which interengages with the smaller die head (14) to detachably secure the latter in the adaptor ring bore (48).

Abstract: A system for linking a first member (12) with a second member (14). The system is comprised of a first plurality of micromechanical barbs (16a) disposed on the first member. The system is also comprised of a second plurality of micromechanical barbs (16b) disposed on the second member. The barbs on the first member and the second member are of a shape such that a locking connection is formed between the first member and second member through the first plurality and second plurality of barbs when placed together. Each of the barbs of the first plurality and second plurality of barbs extend from the first member and second member, respectively, to a height no greater than 5 millimeters. The first plurality of barbs and second plurality of barbs oppose each other. The present invention also pertains to a micromechanical barb for linking with an object. The micromechanical barb comprises a base. The micromechanical barb is also comprised of a support which extends from the base. The micromechanical barb additionally is comprised of a head which is disposed upon the support and which mates with the object such that a locking connection is found therebetween. The length of the support and the head is less than 5 millimeters. The present invention also pertains to a method for making a plurality of barbs. The method is comprised of the steps of first forming a substrate of a first material with a layer of a second material thereon, and at predetermined discrete locations on the layer a third material. Next, there is the step of removing portions of the layer and the substrate such that a frustrum shape is formed on the surface of the substrate. Next, there is the step of removing the third material but leaving the first and second materials essentially untouched. Then, there is the step of reforming the layer made of the second material on the frustrum surface of the substrate. Next, there is the step of removing portions of the layer at essentially the center of the lowest points of the frustrum. There is then the step of removing portions of the substrate but not the second material such that a plurality of barbs is created.

Abstract: A programmable computer which operates by executing rules, each including a rule name, and optionally: input parameters, a set of conditions, a set of actions associated with each condition, and a set of exception handlers. A condition is a logical expression which evaluates to a true or false boolean value, while an action is an executable statement. An exception handler contains executable statements. 
     The computer includes text entry and display means for programming of rules. A rule is displayed with each condition and each action having a row of text. The computer generates a yes/no quadrant into which a programmer may enter sequence numbers, to associate ordered sets of actions with individual conditions. Sequence numbers may be entered not associated with any condition, to define a set of default actions. 
     Upon entering a rule, the computer sequentially evaluates the rule's conditions. Upon a condition evaluating to true, the computer executes the set of actions associated with that condition, then exits the rule. If the rule contains no conditions or none evaluates to true, the set of default actions will be executed, and the rule exited. 
     If, during execution of the rule, the computer detects an exception event, such as a missing datum or other execution error, the computer passes to the rule the name of the detected exception event. If the rule contains an exception handler bearing the same name, the computer will execute the statements within that exception handler.

Abstract: An automated system for preparing samples, and then loading the samples to an analyzer includes a sample carousel which mixes and indexes a plurality of sample tubes to a sample aspiration station. A sample is aspirated from the tube, and directed along with a test reagent into an incubation tube. A plurality of incubation tubes are included on an incubation tube carousel, and a reagent probe aspirates a reagent and dispenses that reagent along with the sample into the incubation tube. An incubation tube is continuously indexed to an injection probe which removes a portion of the sample and reagent after the sample has had time to incubate. The injection probe delivers that removed sample to an injection port for an analysis system. The analysis system utilizes is a known testing techniques to test the sample. The system may include a station to dispense a lysing agent or a buffering agent into the incubation tube after the reagent probe has dispensed the reagent and sample into the incubation tube, and prior to the injection probe removing the sample. Wash stations are disposed for washing the various probes. In addition, wash probes are included to wash the incubation tubes after the sample has been removed by the test probe. Thus, the system may operate automatically and continuously to remove samples from said sample tubes, prepare samples in the incubation tube, and load those samples to an analyzer. The sample incubation tubes are then cleaned for reuse. In another feature of this invention, a pump for driving the reagent and the sample into the incubation tube includes a connection to air which facilitates the movement of the fluids into the incubation tubes.

Abstract: An improved assay to determine sensitivity to activated protein C in assay samples has been developed in order to ensure rapid and accurate analyses. This assay is based on measurement of the conversion of added factor X into an activated form by activated factor VIII within an assay sample. The sensitivity of the assay sample to activated protein C is determined from the relative inhibition of the factor X conversion by comparison with a control. An assay sample with reduced sensitivity to activated protein C shows a relatively low inhibition and vice versa.

Abstract: An illumination apparatus is disclosed which efficiently irradiates an irradiation surface without destroying the symmetry of an illuminance distribution at the irradiation surface. A light source is displaced from a center of curvature of a spherical mirror in a direction in a displacement plane which includes an axis of symmetry of the spherical mirror so as to form a light source image at a position off the light source. Due to this, a ray from the spherical mirror passes off the light source (i.e., the position of the light source image), and therefore, a reflection ray is not shielded, absorbed nor otherwise disturbed by the light source, which in turn prevents deterioration in the efficiency of utilization of light. Further, the light source, the spherical mirror and the lens are assembled into a light source unit which is inclined at an angle about a principal point of the lens with respect to a central axis of the irradiation surface and displaced a certain distance in a displacement direction which is perpendicular to the central axis. Hence, the illuminance distribution at the irradiation surface is adjusted and the symmetry of the illuminance distribution at the irradiation surface is improved.
