The container is a glass bottle (10) encased with a plastic coating (4) from its base section (3) to a sealing rim (2) around its mouth (M) in order to protect against shattering or explosive failure. The glass bottle, preferably a glass inlet, is fillable under pressure with a sprayable medically active substance and a propellant and provided with a delivery element attached to the sealing rim. To facilitate lower injection molding temperatures and pressures and to permit autoclaving at high temperatures the glass bottle with the plastic coating (4) is made by a method which includes injecting at least one reactively cross-linkable plastic capable of being heat-softened into a mold surrounding the glass bottle and forming the plastic coating (4) by a reaction injection molding (RIM) method.

A transmitter includes a power amplifier which is capable of both linear and non-linear operation, controlled by first and second control loops. A power controller includes a capacitive component, and controls the gain of the power amplifier. A ramp generation circuit provides a control signal to the power controller. It includes a ROM which stores ramp data values based on samples of a predetermined ramp shape. The ramp shape is based on a generally regular profile C, for example a cos² or cos⁴ function. The ramp shape also includes a boost portion BP, which enhances the ramp data values before the beginning of the generally regular profile C. The boost portion BP causes the capacitor in the feedback loop of the relevant control loop to become fully charged more rapidly, which produces a corresponding increase in the output power of the power amplifier shortly after the generally regular profile C is applied. This allows the transmitter to follow the generally regular profile C of the ramp signal at an earlier time when compared with the prior art. The size of the boost portion BP can be adjusted dependent on a detected temperature.

Nucleic acid molecules modified to enhance recombinant protein, e.g., antibody, expression and/or reduce or eliminate mis-spliced and/or intron read-through (IRT) by-products are disclosed. The invention also provides methods for producing proteins devoid of mis-spliced and/or intron read-through by-products by the use of such vectors in host cells under cell culture conditions suitable for recombinant protein expression.

Rotor blades for wind power installations are known in many different forms. In a wind power installation the rotors or the rotor blades thereof represent the main source of sound. For reasons relating to acceptance and noise prevention laws, the aim should/must be that of minimizing the levels of sound emission as wind power installations are often also set up in the proximity of residential accommodation. The levels of sound emission which hitherto occur with a wind power installation or a wind power converter also mean that wind power installations are faced with resistance from populated areas because of the sound they produce and for that reason such installations can be accepted sometimes with difficulty or not at all as authorities responsible for planning permission refuse permission for wind power installations because of the existing environmental requirements, noise also being an environmentally polluting factor. Therefore the object of the invention is further to improve the noise emission of wind power installations. Wind power installation rotor blade comprising means for reducing the sound produced by a rotor blade, wherein the means is formed by a fluid-repellent layer and/or surface which is provided at least on a surface portion of the rotor blade.

In a vehicle powertrain that includes an engine and an electric machine, a method for preventing rollback of a wheeled vehicle located on an incline includes determining a magnitude of wheel torque required to prevent the vehicle from rolling back, using the electric machine to produce the required magnitude of wheel torque at the wheels, transmitting engine torque to the wheels, and reducing torque produced by the electric machine while increasing engine torque such that the sum of wheel torque produced by the engine and electric machine is substantially equal to said required magnitude of wheel torque.

An amplifier (AMP) is provided with a pair of choppers (CHP_i,CHP_o) in order to reduce the DC-offset and the noise produced by the amplifier (AMP). To obtain an optimal noise reduction the pair of choppers (CHP_i,CHP_o) operate on a high frequency. As a result the DC-offset cancellation is not optimal because a so-called charge injection of the switches in the pair of choppers (CHP_i,CHP_o) produces a DC-offset. To overcome this problem the amplifier (AMP) is further provided with further offset cancellation means which are for example formed by a further pair of choppers (CHP_fi,CHP_fo). This further pair of choppers (CHP_fi,CHP_fo) operates on a relatively low frequency. The combination of the pair of choppers (CHP_i,CHP_o) and the further pair of choppers (CHP_fi,CHP_fo) guarantees an optimal DC-offset cancellation as well as an optimal noise cancellation.

A system for reducing the emissions produced by an engine affixed to a body during operation and reducing noise and vibration. The present invention is particularly related to a small form factor active/passive Diesel Particulate Filter system having an exhaust backpressure sensor, a heating element, a Diesel Oxidation Catalyst, a power relay switch, a filter and an electronic control unit for controlling the heating element based on backpressure detected by the sensor.

An impeller, a fan apparatus, and a method of manufacturing the impeller are provided. The impeller includes a support portion, a plurality of rotor blades, and a joining member. The joining member is a substantially annular member provided to strengthen the rotor blades against influence of a centrifugal force, and extends in a circumferential direction along a circle centered on a central axis so as to join the rotor blades to one another. In each of the rotor blades, a point of intersection of a leading edge of the rotor blade with a radially outer end of the rotor blade is positioned forward, with respect to a rotation direction, relative to a point of intersection of the leading edge with an outside surface of the support portion. The joining member is positioned radially inwards of the radially outer end of each of the rotor blades.

There is provided a tape printing apparatus which is capable of positively discharging a cut-off tape strip of a tape material out of the apparatus by forcibly discharging the same, thereby preventing jamming and double cutting of the tape material. A full-cutting device for cutting a printed strip off the tape material is arranged at a location downstream of a printing section in a tape-feeding direction. A half-cutting device carries out half-cutting of the tape material. A tape discharge device forcibly discharges the cut-off tape strip out of the apparatus via a tape exit.

There is disclosed a solid fuel boiler including: a furnace including a plurality of solid fuel burners and a furnace wall to perform horizontal firing; a duct through which a part of combustion exhaust gas recirculates to a furnace from a downstream side of the furnace; heat exchanger tubes disposed on a furnace wall and in a heat recovery area of the furnace; and recirculation gas ports via which the recirculation gas is supplied to a reducing flame portion of the burners in the furnace without combining the gas with a flame in the vicinity of an outlet of the burner, so that molten ash is prevented from firmly sticking to the furnace wall and thermal NOx, fuel NOx, and unburned carbon.

An electric machine has a stator that comprises a plurality of laminations with teeth and cooling apertures about a central opening. When the laminations are stacked to form the stator core, the teeth of adjacent laminations cooperate to form slots disposed circumferentially about the central opening that are configured to receive a plurality of stator windings, and the cooling apertures angularly spaced about the central opening cooperate to form cooling manifolds that extend along a length of the stator core. A portion of the laminations has their cooling apertures offset from other laminations in the stack in a manner to create a plurality of flow paths transverse to the manifolds. The transverse flow paths extend angularly between laminations and adjacent manifolds. A header assembly directs flow into and out of the stator core.
