A device for the transmission of signals, including video signals, between at least one transmitting assembly and at least receiving assembly by means of a twin-wire connection line provided at each end with a symmetric transformer and supplied by at least one current generator, wherein the generator supplies symmetrically on the wires of the line and is controlled by the signals to be transmitted...

Safety windowpanes made of laminated glass; processes for their manufacture. A safety windowpane made of laminated glass, of the type comprising two glasses made of annealed, hardened or quenched glass 1, 2 bonded to one another by an insert sheet of synthetic material 3 to the opposite faces of which said glasses are adhesively attached, in which said sheet comprises in said material a line 4 of ...

The hydrolysis of carbonyl sulphide is efficiently catalytically intensified by sintered titanium dioxide particles (scrub solids) which are chiefly used for preventing wall encrustations in titanium dioxide preparation by the chloride process. It is particularly expedient when the sintered titanium dioxide particles are wetted with sodium hydroxide or sodium aluminate; such a treatment also makes...

The invention relates to nucleic acid molecules which code for the tumor rejection antigen precursor MAGE-3. Also disclosed are vectors, cell lines, and so forth, which utilize the nucleic acid molecule, and optionally, molecules coding for human leukocyte antigen HLA-A1. Uses of these materials in therapeutic and diagnostic contexts are also a part of the invention.

The invention concerns a joining element made of metal, to connect the end face of a first beam to a second beam running crosswise to this first beam, or to another structural component, wherein the first beam's end section, which is to be connected to the second beam, is provided with an essentially centered vertical slot running in the longitudinal direction of the first beam from its end face t...

A process for the production of terephthalic acid comprises subjecting polyalkylene terephthalate to hydrolysis using a ratio of water to polyalkylene terephthalate in the mixture prior to heating and carrying out the reaction under conditions such that, at the reaction temperature, a significant proportion of the terephthalic acid produced is in the solid phase. The degree of recrystallisation ne...

An accelerometer comprising a proof mass assembly that includes a reed suspended from a support and a cylindrical coil mounted to the reed by a mounting system that minimizes errors due to thermal stress. The mounting system comprises at least three mounting elements. Each mounting element has first and second ends, and a resilient intermediate portion. The first end of each mounting element is co...

A photographic light-sensitive material comprising at least one light-sensitive photographic emulsion layer on a support and a back layer provided on the reverse side of the support, wherein the uppermost surface layer of the back layer comprises a hydrophobic polymer binder and a hydrophilic polymer binder.

PURPOSE:To remarkably enhance graininess by forming at least one silver halide monodispersion emulsion layer on a support and one or more nonphotosensitive layers adjacent to this layer, contg. a diffusive development inhibitor or the like. CONSTITUTION:At least one silver halide monodispersion emulsion layer is formed on the support, and the nonphotosensitive layer formed at the position adjacent...

A packaging machine (10) for wrapping together a plurality of uniform containers (c) which machine includes an infeed section (12) having conveying means (18) for continuously feeding a series of wrapper blanks in substantially flat condition longitudinally towards an outfeed section of the machine and conveying means (22,24) for continuously feeding a linear series of containers to be wrapped in ...

PURPOSE:To automatically adjust the tape tension before and after an unseal tape seal device within a specified figure, by transferring the film belt so that the tensions generated of the respective film belts become states of positive and negative relation of the swing motion of a dancer-roller. CONSTITUTION:A roller 3 at the upper side of a dancer roller 1 is arranged between rollers 12, 13. A f...
