Abstract: In a substantially horizontal conveyor or conveying heated glass sheets, a positioning device for aligning the sheets in a direction transverse to the conveying direction. It includes thrust rods advanced by the engagement of cam followers moving with the thrust rod on cams stationary with respect to the conveyor. Draw springs return the thrust rods to their initial position. The thrust rods are mounted on crosswise carriages, which are in turn mounted on carriages movable in the conveying direction and in synchronism with the glass sheets. The thrust rods are pivotally mounted on the crosswise carriages about horizontal axes, and so their distal ends can be displaced out of the plane of the glass sheets during the return movement of the carriage.

Abstract: The chemical components of lignocellulosic material which have been dissociated by a steam explosion process can be extracted from the mixture of components using a solvent extraction process. The solvents are water, alcohol and a mild caustic in that order, or the alcohol step can be by-passed and only water and caustic are used. The caustic is a stronger solvent and it will extract the alcohol solubles along with the caustic only solubles. The eluant from the these extractions contains a range of lignin derived substances, which have different applications, such as thermoplastic and thermosetting characteristics. This invention describes a method for partitioning these lignin components into reproducible fractions having definable characteristics for particular applications. For instance, many copolymer applications require a thermosetting only fraction of the lignin. Other applications require a thermoplastic only lignin. The patent also describes a process for converting the thermoplastic lignin fraction to thermosetting lignin. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention provides a preparation of tumor cell lines containing an exogenous gene encoding a polypeptide that potentiates the immune response to the tumor, for example, interleukin-2. The invention includes methods for cancer therapy by immunization with the immunopotentiating tumor cell. The invention also provides methodology whereby one can selectively ablate in vitro and in vivo genetically altered cells. A preferred embodiment of this aspect of the invention includes a cell containing a first exogenous gene encoding an immunopotentiating polypeptide and a second exogenous gene encoding a "lethal" or "suicide" polypeptide, preferably under the control of an inducible promoter. Introduction of the second exogenous gene confers the ability to selectively kill the tumor cell by inducing a promoter in operative linkage to the gene encoding the lethal polypeptide to initiate transcription of the polypeptide. Diphtheria toxin or the thymidine kinase of Herpes simplex virus are exemplary lethal genes. An exemplary promoter employed is the 6-16 promoter, which is inducible with low levels of interferon. Methods for using the cells in cancer therapy are also provided.

Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for injecting sealant into a packing assembly chamber surrounding a valve stem 11 of a valve 2 without venting the pressure within the valve 2. A cylindrical body 60 is frictionally welded to the exterior of the valve 2 adjacent the packing assembly chamber. A drill bit is passed into the body 60 and through a set of packing seals 87. An opening is completed into the packing chamber. As the drill bit is withdrawn from the body 60, a second valve 70 is manually "closed" to isolate the packing chamber from the drill bit and prevent the escape of pressurized fluid when the drill bit is removed from the seals 87. Thereafter, a device for injecting sealant is attached to the body 60 and the valve 70 is "opened" to allow the sealant to flow into the packing chamber.

Abstract: A floating point processor for performing arithmetic operations on floating point numbers includes a first arithmetic operation unit configured to operate on normalized numbers and a second arithmetic operation unit which includes a denormalizer for denormalizing normalized numbers and a normalizer for normalizing denormalized numbers. Each arithmetic operation unit has first and second inputs for receiving first and second operands, respectively, and an output for transmitting a result of the arithmetic operation. When an denormalized operand is presented as an input to the arithmetic operation unit configured to operate on normalized numbers, the denormalized input operand is redirected through the second arithmetic unit for normalization of the denormalized operand. The first arithmetic operation unit then performs its arithmetic operation using the normalized input operands. The result of the arithmetic operation is then analysed to determine whether it has a zero or negative exponent. If the result has a zero or negative exponent, the result is directed through the second arithmetic unit a second time so that the result is denormalized. The denormalized result is then output.

Abstract: A multipurpose hemofiltration system and method are disclosed for the removal of fluid and/or soluble waste from the blood of a patient. The system and method are equally applicable to adult, pediatric and neonatal patients. The system continuously monitors the weight of infusate in a first reservoir and drained fluid in a second reservoir and compares those weights to corresponding predetermined computed weights. When necessary, the pumping rates of the infusate, drained fluid and blood are adjusted in order to achieve a preselected amount of fluid removal from the patient's blood in a preselected time period. Application of this system and method provide repeatable and highly precise results.

Abstract: In order to make a functional check of apparatuses such as sights (A) intended to be mounted on the top of the shaft supporting the rotor of a helicopter, a vibration simulator is provided, which is controlled by three linear exciters (14) with parallel axes. The exciters (14) act on an interface plate (32) carrying a shaft (50) equipped with a sight (A) to be tested, at three points forming an equilateral triangle centred on the axis of the shaft. The movements of the plate (32) are limited to a translation along a vertical axis and to two rotations around two orthogonal horizontal axes by an appropriate mechanism (30,26,28,42,44,46). A digital computer, sensitive to signals delivered by accelerometers associated with each of the exciters, drives the latter so as to reconstruct the elementary vibrations of a helicopter rotor shaft.
