Patent EP-0420577-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SCHOEPE ADOLF
IPC: F16K47/02
Filed: 1990-09-25
Abstract: A toilet cistern refill mechanism for refilling a toilet cistern after each flushing, which produces minimal noise during the refill process. The mechanism includes a valve device 26 which can open to pass water to a vertical outlet tube 36 that empties into the bottom of the cistern 12. An anti-siphon air tube 62 near the top of the outlet tube has an upper end 66 open to the atmosphere and a lower end 64 facing downwardly along the outlet tube. A restriction 72 in the outlet tube, below the air tube, causes water to fill the outlet tube and at least the bottom of the air tube for a water inlet pressure of at least 20psi. The water at the bottom of the air tube prevents air from being dragged into the downwardly facing air tube, to avoid the noise that would result from such air flowing through the air tube and bubbling out of the bottom of the outlet tube.

Abstract: A relay (2) isolates, when unoccupied, the telephone line (1). During dialling and communication, the d.c. line current passes through an MOS transistor (6) placed in series with a d.c. regulation circuit (71-72). During dialling, a photocoupler (8) operates the transistor (6) in order to cause interruptions to the d.c. current. During communication, a relay (93) allows on the one hand the a.c. line current to pass through the primary of a transformer (92) whose secondary is connected to a modem (10) and on the other hand the input of the transistor (6) to be passed to a capacitor (63) so as to increase, in the a.c. mode, the impedance offered to the line (1) by the transistor (6). The invention applies in particular to fax machines and telematic terminals. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A microprocessor reset device comprising a first comparator (1) which, when the input signal (V 1N ) of the device falls below a first threshold (Th i ), closes a switch (2) controlling discharging of a condenser (4). A second comparator (5) connected to the condenser (4) enables the reset signal (x R ) when its input signal (V s ), correlated with the voltage of the condenser, falls below a second threshold (Th 2 ). For enabling of the reset signal (x R ) to be dependent on both the duration of the reduction in the input signal (V lN ) below the first threshold (Th 1 ), as measured by the voltage present at the terminals of the condenser (4), as well as on the amount of reduction, the input signal (V s ) of the second comparator (5) consists of a linear combination of the input signal (V lN ) and the voltage (V c ) of the condenser, effected by an adding element (15).

Abstract: The OH group located in the 3' and/or 2' position of a nucleoside, nucleotide or oligonucleotide is derivatised to an amino or thiol group and subsequently a fluorescent dye is coupled thereto. The resulting 3'- and/or 2'-amino- and thiol-modified nucleosides, nucleotides and oligonucleotides can then be used for the synthesis of items in the presence of a template strand or of oligonucleotides, and for the detection of genetic material. They offer the advantage that the fluorescent label is no longer attached to the 5' end of the oligonucleotide or to the nucleobase and thus does not have to be introduced during the chemical synthesis as in labelling techniques hitherto disclosed, while the known and conventional methods have the disadvantage that only some polymerases can be employed for the synthesis, the acceptance of the triphosphates by the polymerases falls and, in addition, a large substrate excess is necessary.

Abstract: A scroll type compressor has a crank pin (142) eccentrically extending from an inner end of a drive shaft (14). A bushing (27) swingable about the crank pin connects the crank pin to an orbiting scroll (21). First (202) and second (212) spiral elements are urged together in response to the reaction force of gas compression which is exerted on the central axis (Oc) of the bushing. A control mechanism, consisting either of an enlarged diameter region (143b) in the hole in which the crank pin is mounted (Fig.2) or a supportive elastic member (51), allows the position of the axis (Od) of the crank pin to be altered so that the force between the spiral elements does not become excessive when an abnormally large reaction force of gas compression is exerted on the central axis of the bushing. This provides excellent sealing of the fluid pockets and reduces wearing of the spiral element surfaces with a simple construction.
