Patent EP-0569057-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61G7/057
Filed: 1989-12-07
Abstract: A patient support system has a fluidizable 
surface formed by air fluidizing a mass of fluidizable 
material (50), and a surface formed by a plurality of 
inflatable sacks (36) which may be disposed on an 
articulatable member. The two surfaces are disposed end 
to end so that the inflatable sacks (36) support the 
head, chest and upper torso of a patient, and the 
fluidized material (50) supports the buttocks, legs and 
feet of the patient. The fluidizable material (50) is 
contained by a member (66) which is at least partially 
collapsible so as to facilitate the patient's ingress and 
egress to and from the support system, the collapsible 
member for example comprising an air impermeable panel 
which can form an inflatable elastic wall (66) having one 
or more internal webs defining separately pressurizable 
compartments. A blower (40) inflates the sacks, the 
elastic wall (66), and the fluidizable material under the 
control of a microprocessor which controls actuation of 
various valves and the blower (40) according to signals 
inputted by operating personnel or supplied by various 
sensors which monitor the patient support system.

Abstract: The temperature adjustable coating and medium and
method for providing an electrically-resistant
temperature-adjustable article and structure. The
coating provides a continuous electrically-conductive
electrically-resistive path for the application of
electrical current to the coating. The electrically-resistant
temperature-adjustable article consists of a
surface on which a high-temperature conductive-resistive
coating is bound. The surface temperature of the
article along the path is thereby adjustable between
ambient and 2000°F in response to electric current
applied to it without oxidization destroying the
electrical conductivity of the medium in temperatures
above 600°F. The medium possesses the high-temperature
conductive-resistive quality of the coating while
maintaining a clay consistency capable of being formed
into various shapes without a substrate.

Title: Clutch reengagement control
Inventor: MACK WILLIAM JOSEPH
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 1995-09-08
Abstract: A control is provided for controlling reengagement of a master clutch (16) in a vehicular automated mechanical transmission system. A nominal reengagement rate (CLU_RATE) is determined as a function of engine lag (K1), throttle position (THL), engine acceleration/deceleration (dES/dt) and/or input shaft acceleration/deceleration (dIS/dt). To provide smoother shifting during braking (BRK = 1, THL = 0) and/or coasting (THL < 30%) downshifts, the clutch is reengaged at a rate slower than the nominal reengagement rate. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0761191-A3 (EP)
Inventor: HANSON WILLIAM D
IPC: A61F13/15
Filed: 1992-09-10
Abstract: When a superabsorbent material is to be incorporated into an 
absorbent composite in a relatively high concentration, it is 
necessary to carefully choose the superabsorbent material. 
Properties of the superabsorbent to be considered are total 
Absorbent Capacity, resistance to Deformation Under Load, the 
ability of the superabsorbent material to absorb while under 
a restraining force, and the ability of the superabsorbent 
material to wick fluids away from the insult area. By 
quantifying these characteristics of a superabsorbent 
material, one is able to predict which superabsorbent 
materials are suited for use in absorbent composites 
comprising a relatively high concentration of superabsorbent 
material.

Abstract: In a filter manufacturing method, during a time period
from the start of the suction of the slurry (1) to a point in
time when fibers in the slurry (1) accumulate on the outer
peripheral surface of the protector (11) to a prescribed
thickness, the protector (11) and its leg portions (12b) are held
spaced away from each other. The leg portions (12b) are moved
toward the protector (11) so that the leg portions are disposed
at a position spaced by a uniform distance from the outer
peripheral surface of the protector (11) and the suction
operation is continued. Thus, the slurry 1 containing the fibers
therein can be easily caused to flow deeply into recess portions
of a fin-like portion (11b) with no fiber being caught between
the protector (11) and the leg portions (12b), thus reducing
non-walled portions.

Abstract: The present invention involves a carbureted fuel system (34) for an
internal combustion engine (10) for small utility implements. The engine
includes a crankcase (28) with a cylinder bore (16). The crankcase
rotatably supports a crankshaft (12) having a flywheel (18) and a magnet
(20) disposed on an outer periphery of the flywheel. The crankshaft is
also connected to a reciprocating piston (14) disposed in the cylinder
bore. A cylinder head is attached to the crankcase over the cylinder bore,
and a carburetor is disposed on the cylinder head. The carburetor is in
communication with a fuel supply (25) and an air inlet. The carburetor
includes a mixing chamber (36) in which the fuel and air are mixed
together and then introduced into the manifold (38) and eventually into the
cylinder via a valve (40) for combustion therein. In communication with
the main passage (23) of the carburetor is a secondary air inlet in which is
disposed an air bleed device (32, 200), such as a solenoid or PZT (200)
operated actuator, which is controlled by an electronic control unit (50).
An induction coil (22) is disposed adjacent the flywheel and is coupled to
the electronic control unit so that the rotation of the flywheel generates a
pulse on the induction coil that is processed by the electronic control unit.
Based upon the information derived from the electrical pulses generated
by the induction coil, the electronic control unit activates the air bleed
device to enrich or enlean the air-to-fuel mixture fed into the cylinder for 
combustion. In this manner emissions associated with the operation of the
engine may be reduced.

Abstract: A prothesis (18, 108, 120) for transluminal implantation consists of a flexible tubular three-dimensionally braided structure of metal or polymeric monofilaments (32, 110, 126), and polymeric multifilament yarns (42). The prosthesis can be elastically deformed to reduce its diameter through axial elongation. The monofilaments and multifilament yarns are arranged in axially spaced apart helices, concentric on a common central axis of the prosthesis. The monofilaments are selectively shaped before their interbraiding with the multifilament yarns, either by an age-hardening or other heat-setting stage, or a cold-working stage that controllably plastically deforms the strands. The shaped structural strands cooperate to impart to the prosthesis its nominal shape and resilience. The textile strands cooperate to provide one or more layers of sheeting (40) that reduce permeability and thereby enhance the utility of the prosthesis as a vascular graft. An alternative embodiment prosthesis (132) includes elastically and plastically deformable structural strands (140), selectively plastically deformed by cold working, then three-dimensionally braided to form the prosthesis. <IMAGE>

Patent EP-0840434-A3 (EP)
Inventor: KHOLODENKO ARNOLD
IPC: B23Q3/15
Filed: 1997-11-04
Abstract: The disclosure relates to an apparatus for
retaining a workpiece and a method of fabricating
same. The apparatus contains an electrostatic chuck
(100) having a workpiece support surface (107). The
workpiece support surface has protruded regions and
non-protruded regions, where a total surface area of
the protruded regions is less than a total surface
area of the non-protruded regions. 
     To create a topography for the wafer support
surface (107) an electrode (112) is etched into a
series of one or more rims (106) and (110) rising
above a common level. Rims may be continuous or
broken into radial segments. After the electrode is
etched to a specific topographical pattern and sealed
between the dielectric layers (114) and (116), the
result is a topography across the wafer support
surface (107) that lends additional support to the
clamped wafer (111). Thus, the wafer is supported at
the outer diameter rim contact area (103) and at least
one other point radially inward therefrom (e.g., rims
(106) and (110)). 
     To achieve cooling of the wafer during
processing, a heat transfer gas, preferably Helium, is
pumped into the space (109) between the wafer and the
wafer support surface via heat transfer gas ports
(108). With the addition of the rims (106) and (110),
the interstitial spaces between the wafer and the
wafer support surface (107) are eliminated. Thus, the
surface area of the wafer exposed solely to the Helium
is greatly increased. The topography of the chuck may
also be formed by machining the surface of the
pedestal prior to adhering and conforming the flex
circuit to the surface.
