Publication number: 20180231562Abstract: A new, stable trimeric TNF? structure is disclosed with distorted symmetry which can bind to the TNFR1 receptor to attenuate signalling therefrom, which can be used in the treatment and/or prevention of diseases associated with the soluble TNF?/TNFR1 interaction. Membrane-bound TNF? is not affected in its ability to signal through TNFR2, and thus the new structure of TNF? may be used in therapies which do not significantly raise the risk of infection or malignancy.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 22, 2015Publication date: August 16, 2018Inventors: James Philip O'CONNELL, John Robert PORTER, Alastair LAWSON, Boris KROEPLIEN, Stephen Edward RAPECKI, Timothy John NORMAN, Graham John WARRELLOW, Tracy Lynn ARAKAKI, Alex Buntin BURGIN, William Ross PITT, Mark Daniel CALMIANO, David Andreas SCHUBERT, Daniel John LIGHTWOOD, Rebecca Jayne WOOTTON

Patent number: 8928301Abstract: A control circuit adjusts the duty cycle of a PWM control signal. An analog processing component within the control circuit receives an analog feedback input signal and compares it to an analog reference signal to generate a pre-processed signal. A sigma-delta modulator within the analog processing component generates a quantized signal based on the pre-processed signal. A digital processing component stores a value. The controller then adjusts the duty cycle of the PWM signal to correspond to the value. A clock keeps the system synchronized.Type: GrantFiled: June 13, 2012Date of Patent: January 6, 2015Assignee: Atmel CorporationInventor: Andreas Schubert

Patent number: 7880152Abstract: The invention relates to a device and a method for producing resist profiled elements. According to the invention, an electron beam lithography system is used to produce an electron beam, the axis of the beam being essentially perpendicular to a resist layer in which the resist profiled element is to be produced. The electron beam can be adjusted in terms of the electron surface dose in such a way that a non-orthogonal resist profiled element can be produced as a result of the irradiation by the electron beam.Type: GrantFiled: March 30, 2005Date of Patent: February 1, 2011Assignees: Giesecke & Devrient GmbH, Vistec Electron Beam GmbHInventors: Wittich Kaule, Rainer Plontke, Ines Stolberg, Andreas Schubert, Marius Dichtl

Publication number: 20090080820Abstract: A bearing segment of a heavy-duty hydrodynamic axial plain bearing for an electric machine and including a stationary subassembly and a rotary subassembly is described. The bearing segment includes a sliding surface facing a front surface of the rotary subassembly and in close proximity to the front surface so as to form a lubricant gap containing a lubricant between the sliding surface and the front surface.

Publication number: 20050193553Abstract: At least two components are brought to rest on each other at least in an assembly portion, with a carrier element contacting a first one of the two components at least in the assembly portion, and at least one projection passing through the components in the assembly portion in the direction towards the carrier element. The carrier element is planarly supported at least in the assembly portion against the passing-through movement of the projection, and the passing of the projection through the components. The opposed planar support of the carrier element effects a plastic deformation of the passed-through material of the components in the direction transversely to the passing-through movement of the projection by deforming the carrier element.Type: ApplicationFiled: April 14, 2005Publication date: September 8, 2005Applicant: Muhlbauer AGInventors: Andreas Schubert, Sven Hochmann, Ralf God, Jorg Schneider

Patent number: 6774375Abstract: In a method for forming, with the aid of an electron beam (6), a polyline on a substrate (4) coated with a radiation-sensitive resist, the electron beam (6) is directed onto a surface of the substrate (4) in the direction of a Z coordinate, and the substrate (4) is displaced relative to the electron beam (6) in an X-Y plane in individual steps. After each individual step of the displacement, the electron beam (6) acts with a predefined energy input on the substrate (4) during a halt in the displacement motion. The energy input for each individual step is determined as a function of the shape of the polyline ascertained from several preceding individual steps. Also described is a corresponding apparatus with which, using electron beam lithography, it is possible to form polylines with a very uniform line width. The method and apparatus are particularly suitable for writing curved polylines.Type: GrantFiled: March 5, 2001Date of Patent: August 10, 2004Assignee: Leica Microsystems Lithography GmbHInventors: Rainer Plontke, Andreas Schubert, Michael Blume, Ines Stolberg
