Patent EP-0486163-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MAASS KLAUS PETER
IPC: B60J10/04
Filed: 1991-10-18
Abstract: A sealing strip 14 provides a sealing lip 38 which is mounted on an air-tight hollow chamber 36 having two relatively rigid sides stiffened by a metal carrier 32. The third side is a relatively flexible wall 34. Expansion of the chamber 36 by air pressure pushes the flexible wall 34 outwardly so that leg 40 pivots the lip 38 out of engagement with the window glass 8 as shown. In this configuration, a further chamber 46 can be expanded by air pressure so that a wiper 44 mounted on the flexible wall 40 moves into contact with the face of the window glass 8. As the window glass is raised or lowered, the wiper 44 removes moisture and prevents smearing. Partial evacuation of the chambers 36 and 46 retracts the flexible wall 34, thus pulling the lip 38 into sealing engagement with the window glass 8, and also causes the wiper 44 to move out of contact with the glass. A water jet may also be provided to spray cleaning water onto the glass when in the closed position.

Title: Redox mediator reagent and biosensor.
Inventor: GERBER MARTIN T
IPC: G01N27/416
Filed: 1990-12-14
Abstract: A biosensor that includes working and counter electrodes of substantially the same size and made of the same electrically conducting material. A reagent is contained in a reagent well in the biosensor. The reagent includes a redox mediator, an enzyme, and a buffer, and covers substantially equal surface areas of portions of the working and counter electrodes. When a sample, containing the analyte to be measured, is added to the reagent well, a reaction occurs that oxidizes the analyte and reduces the redox mediator. After this reaction is complete, an electrical potential difference is applied between the electrodes. The amount of oxidized form of the redox mediator at the counter electrode and the applied potential difference must be sufficient to cause diffusion limited electrooxidation of the reduced form of the redox mediator at the surface of the working electrode. After a short time delay, current produced by the electrooxidation of the reduced form of the redox mediator is measured and the observed current is correlated to the amount of the analyte in the sample. In some cases, the analyte sought to be measured may be reduced and the redox mediator may be oxidized. In such cases, current produced by diffusion limited electroreduction of the oxidized form of the redox mediator is measured and correlated to the amount of analyte in the sample.

Abstract: Repetitive phenomena cancelling controller arrangement for cancelling unwanted repetitive phenomena comprising known fundamental frequencies. The known frequencies are determined and an electrical known frequency signal corresponding to the known fundamental frequencies of the unwanted repetition phenomena is generated. A plurality of sensors are employed in which each sensor senses residual phenomena and generates an electrical residual phenomena signal representative of the residual phenomena. A plurality of actuators are provided for cancelling phenomena signals at a plurality of locations, and a controller is utilized for automatically controlling each of the actuators as a predetermined function of the known fundamental frequencies of the unwanted repetitive phenomena and of the residual phenomena signals from the plurality of sensors. In this arrangement the plurality of actuators operate to selectively cancel discrete harmonics of the known fundamental frequencies while accommodating interactions between the various sensors and actuators.
