An initial creel (24) together with part of an adjacent creel (24) are in front of each half-field (10), with their bobbins (22,23). The remaining bo...

The suspended creels, for a textile machine such as a false twister and especially a draw texturising machine, has creel walls (21) travelling across the creel passage (17) while suspended from rails (27). At least one trolley moves in the creel passage, which is fitted with at least one further rail (31,33) aligned with the suspension rail (27) so that the creel wall (21) can transfer from the su...

A device with two clamping bars (5,6) for the wiper blade (14) in the gap (8) between them. Parallel to the bar rear surfaces is a travelling knife (13) moving down the gap to give new edges to the wiper blade. A bar (9) with an accurate groove (10) is located behind the knife and is placed over the gap. It provides a stop against which the wiper blade abuts before the clamping bars are tightened ...

The fan equipment (6) is fitted to the arm of a sheet printing machine, in which a sheet (2) is guided on a circulating grab system by chain conveyors, and is removed towards a stop on a pile (5) in the arm, using compressed air. It is aligned roughly horizontally, and has guide equipment (8) between it and the sheet, in the direction of delivery of the airstream. The guide equipment has openings ...

This apparatus is constructed in combination with the transportation mechanism formed in the known doffing mechanism or known overhead roving bobbin transportation system, in a condition such that a part of the constitutional mechanical elements of such known transporta...

A pulse-width modulated (PWM) proportional magnet includes a winding (13) carried by a plastics bobbin (10), two pole shoes (21,22) and a magnet armature (36), and is designed to provide a wide duty factor range for control of the electromagnet without resorting to an anti-surge diode, and now includes a tube (10) made of a non-magnetic, electrically conducting, metallic material, arranged outside...

On the edge of the lift platform (1) for the stack of cardboard blanks there are downwardly off-set steps (14) reaching into the area of the vertical stands (4) which enclose the platform. The cardboard blanks (2) project over the circumference of the platform at least in the area of the steps. Bearing pawls (5) displaceably guided on the vertical stands swivel from a neutral position outside the ...

A device for controlling the production quality of a press, which manufactures package blanks from a sheet of material by transferring the sheet of materials, such as paperboard or corrugated board, chronologically through an infeed station, a die-cutting station, a waste-stripping station and a delivery station, has an arrangement for controlling the printing and blanking quality which includes a...

The present invention relates to improved models for progressive epithelial neoplasias and methods for their use. In particular, the invention provides transgenic non-human animals comprising a human papilloma virus oncogene operably linked to a promoter which directs expression of the oncogene in a transient amplifying cell in the non-human animal.

The microfluidic structure comprises first and second substantially planar form-stable base layers and an intermediate spacing layer of elastic material, said spacing layer being recessed to define a microcavity or channel system with at least one of said first and second base layers. The structure is produced by moulding the spacing layer, optionally applied to or integral with a first base layer...

A device capable of generating an anomaly signal when the frequency of a signal derived from the said microprocessor crosses a lower or upper frequency threshold comprises:   an oscillator (P1-P3, R3, R4, C2, D2) periodically producing a single-tone voltage and including a threshold circuit (P3), and generating an anomaly signal when this voltage crosses a threshold, and comprising a reset inpu...
