3.8.3. Avoid contamination of the floor surface with adhesive.

3.8.4. To control the non-failure operation of the blocking device for the fencing of the glue spreading rollers.

3.8.5. Wash and clean the glue rollers with special tools. Washing the rollers should be carried out from the side of the parts exit when manually turning the rollers.

3.8.6. It is forbidden:

store glue in the production room;
leave working mechanisms unattended;
work with local exhausts and supply and exhaust ventilation turned off.

4. Safety requirements in emergency situations

4.1. In the event of an emergency or risk of injury, immediately stop the operation of the equipment.

4.2. In the event of vibration, knocking, changes in the nature of noise, the appearance of smoke, stop the operation of the equipment and report this to the work manager.

4.3. The worker must be able to provide first aid. Such assistance is provided immediately, directly at the scene and in a certain sequence. First you need to eliminate the source of injury (turn off the equipment, remove the victim from under the source of injury, etc.).

Assistance should begin with the most significant that threatens the health or life of a person (in case of severe bleeding, apply a tourniquet, and then bandage the wound; if a closed fracture is suspected, apply a splint; with open fractures, first bandage the wound and then apply a splint; in case of burns, apply a dry bandage).

If spinal injury is suspected, transport the victim only in the supine position on a rigid base.

4.4. After providing first aid, the victim should be sent to the nearest medical facility.

4.5. If a fire or fire is detected, immediately report it to the fire department, start extinguishing the fire using fire extinguishing equipment available at the workplace, and take measures to call the work manager.

5. Safety requirements upon completion of work

5.1. Turn off the press and conveyor by disconnecting them from the mains.

5.2. Clean the equipment and workplace from dust, chips, debris. Cleaning is carried out with a scraper and brooms with long handles.

5.3. Check the presence of lubrication in the units where lubrication must be periodically added, if necessary, add lubrication.

5.4. Remove fixtures, tools, cleaning equipment in the place provided for this purpose.

5.5. Clean clothes, shoes. It is forbidden to blow clothes, floor, equipment with compressed air.

The existence of an entropy rule for quantum entanglement has been proven 09.05.2024

Quantum mechanics continues to amaze us with its mysterious phenomena and unexpected discoveries. Recently, Bartosz Regula from the RIKEN Center for Quantum Computing and Ludovico Lamy from the University of Amsterdam presented a new discovery that concerns quantum entanglement and its relation to entropy. Quantum entanglement plays an important role in modern quantum information science and technology. However, the complexity of its structure makes understanding and managing it challenging. Regulus and Lamy's discovery shows that quantum entanglement follows an entropy rule similar to that for classical systems. This discovery opens new perspectives in the field of quantum information science and technology, deepening our understanding of quantum entanglement and its connection to thermodynamics. The results of the study indicate the possibility of reversibility of entanglement transformations, which could greatly simplify their use in various quantum technologies. Opening a new rule ... >>

Drunk bullying gene found 27.11.2015

Finnish scientists have identified a gene mutation whose carriers are prone to impulsive and reckless behavior when drunk.

The scientists used a large database of Finnish patients suffering from alcoholism and their relatives. The database was collected by psychiatrist Matti Virkkunen from the University of Helsinki. The researchers drew attention to a special group of people who always get drunk quickly and do "crazy" acts, and tried to find the biological basis of their behavior.

Psychiatrist Roope Tikkanen found that all members of the group have a mutation in the 5-HT2B gene, which is responsible for the assembly receptor for serotonin type 2B receptors (the latter allow neurons to respond to serotonin molecules).

Little is known about how these receptors work in the human body; scientists believe they are somehow related to impulsive behavior. The results of the study suggest that carriers of the mutation are more reckless when sober, often suffering from a lack of self-control and mood swings.

This mutation is present in 2,2 percent of the country's population (more than 100 thousand people). “Usually, the influence of one gene on behavioral traits is minimal. However, in this case, a strong impact is associated with the peculiarities of Finland: centuries of isolation created a homogeneous gene pool, and hereditary diseases are caused by a relatively small number of factors,” Tikkanen emphasized.

If the results are confirmed in a larger sample of patients suffering from poor self-control, scientists may recommend a range of preventive measures, including moderate alcohol consumption and cognitive-behavioral therapy.
