Abstract:
A method and apparatus for the formation of coplanar electrical interconnectors. Solder material is deposited onto a wafer, substrate, or other component of an electrical package using a complaint mold such that the terminal ends of the solder material being deposited, i.e., the ends opposite to those forming an attachment to the wafer, substrate, or other component of an electrical package are coplanar with one another. A complaint mold is used having one or more conduits for receiving solder material and having a compliant side and a planar side. The compliant side of the mold is positioned adjacent to the wafer, substrate, or other component of an electrical package allowing solder material to be deposited onto the surface thereof such that the planar side of the compliant mold provides coplanar interconnectors. An Injection Molded Solder (IMS) head can be used as the means for filling the conduits of the compliant mold of the present invention.
Abstract:
A pharmaceutical composition for slow release of active ingredient in the gastrointestinal tract, comprising a plurality of active ingredient-containing particles coated with a material insoluble in gastric and intestinal juices, where the particles have as core a homogeneous mixture comprising an active pharmaceutical ingredient and a polymer insoluble in gastric and intestinal juices, with an average internal pore diameter not exceeding 35 μm, makes efficient and pH-independent delaying of release possible even with comparatively small amounts of polymer. It is additionally distinguished by a long shelf life and is particularly suitable also for nonspherical particles.
Abstract:
In a top comb for a combing machine, having at least one row of stamped needles that are arranged in a parallel side-by-side relation and enclosed between two cover plates with a free needle projection (8) being left free, wherein compressed air channels are formed between the cover plates and adjacent pairs of needles are provided, in order to increase the efficiency of the cleaning effect, that the needles (1,1′,1″) incorporate embossings such that the congruent embossings of adjacent needles form an air channel (9,9′,9″), wherein the embossings taper in their widths towards the outlet area (outlet opening 11,11′,11″).
Abstract:
In particular, the invention relates to a new, clearly dissolving ibuprofen effervescent formulation and a process for the preparation of this formulation. Ibuprofen or (±)2-(4-isobutylphenyl)-propionic acid has the following structural formula and has been for years a proven, non-steroidal antiphlogistic from the group of phenylpropionic acid derivatives, which shows effectiveness in veterinary experimental inflammation models by inhibiting prostaglandin synthesis.
Abstract:
The specification describes a pharmaceutical combination consisting of dipyridamole or mopidamol and acetylsalicylic acid or the physiologically acceptable salts thereof, processes for preparing this pharmaceutical combination and the use thereof for the controlled prevention of clot formation.
Abstract:
Disclosed are budesonide pellets with a controlled release pattern containing, from the inside to the outside: a) neutral pellets; b) an active principle layer of micronized budesonide and one or more water-soluble auxiliaries; c) a first lacquer coating consisting of 80 to 97% of at least one lacquer insoluble in gastric fluids but soluble in intestinal fluids and 3 to 20% of at least one lacquer insoluble in both gastric and intestinal fluids; and d) a second lacquer coating consisting of at least one lacquer insoluble in gastric and intestinal fluids. The invention also relates to a process for producing budesonide pellets with a controlled release pattern.
Abstract:
The invention is directed to a process for dotting molding tools with droplets of liquid or suspended lubricant in the production of shaped articles in the pharmaceutical, food, or catalyst fields. Pressurized lubricant solutions or suspensions and pressurized gas are alternately passed through capillaries, in conjunction with alternating single-substance nozzles, in such a way that drops are formed on the nozzle surface, in between the jets of gas, and are then detached form this surface and directed to specific zones of pressing tools. The apparatus comprises fast-acting valves for the brief release of pressurized gases and lubricant liquids or suspensions. The delivery lines of a gas valve and a liquid valve combine upstream of a capillary, and single-substance nozzles are mounted at the end of the capillaries.
Abstract:
This invention relates to vehicles for the administration of mopidamol. More specifically, this invention relates to a method of treating cardiovascular disorders, malignancy, or thrombosis in a host in need of such treatment which comprises administering to said host a cardiovascularly, antimetastic, or antithrombotic effective amount of a composition comprised of (i) mopidamol or an acid addition salt thereof and (ii) at least one pharmacologically acceptable acid or acid substance, the total amount of acid from acid addition salt present and acid or acid substance being in a ratio of at least about 1 acid equivalent to 1 mol of mopidamol or its acid addition salt.
Abstract:
This invention is directed to a method for the non-contact application of letters or symbols to the exterior surfaces of uncoated tablets or uncoated tablet cores, which comprises dotting color solution or suspension by means of an ink-jet printer in specific quantity in the form of discrete droplets of specific volume onto the exterior surfaces of the uncoated tablets or uncoated tablet cores.
Abstract:
A smoke detector is disclosed containing a radiation source and a radiation receiver arranged externally of a direct radiation region of the radiation source. In the presence of smoke or other combustion particles in the radiation region the radiation receiver is impinged by scattered radiation. The smoke detector contains optical elements which can be altered by external mechanical actuation, by means of which it is possible to alter in a predetermined manner an output signal of the radiation receiver. In this regard it is possible to either mechanically alter the solid angle which is so-to-speak viewed by the radiation receiver or the solid angle irradiated by the radiation source. The constriction of the active solid angle is preferably accomplished by a diaphragm or membrane displaceable along the radiation direction. Displacement of the diagram is preferably achieved in that, this diaphragm engages by means of dogs or detents in a cam groove, such as a helical-shaped groove of a cam disk, and by rotating the cam disk there can be achieved a defined displacement of the diaphragm.
