Title: esponja metálica semi-lìquida stannun-hidrargyrium dos elementos quìmicos estanho e mércúrio á temperatura ambiente
Inventor: SOUZA ELOYSIO RIBEIRO DE JR
IPC: C22C13/00
Filed: 2006-06-30
Abstract: ESPONJA METáLICA SEMI-LìQUIDA STANNUN-HIDRARGYRIUM DOS ELEMENTOS QUìMICOS ESTANHO E MERCúRIO à TEMPERATURA AMBIENTE. Invenção de liga metálica dos elementos químicos Estanho e Mercúrio que, misturados em determinada proporção, formam uma esponja metálica, cujo líquido absorvido/expelido é o mercúrio, que ao mesmo tempo aglutina as partículas de estanho. A mistura caracteriza-se por conter partes iguais em massa de mercúrio líquido e partículas de estanho, formando massa uniforme maleável, por fraca ligação metálica, sem amalgamar. Boa condutora de calor e corrente elétrica, brilha e tem coloração prateada. Quando fracionada, pode ser reunificada por contato. A mistura não é absorvida por materiais normalmente absorventes como papel e pano, e não ocorre nenhuma decantação que chegue a separar os metais, O mercúrio pode ser retirado da mistura por compressão da massa total, ou reintegrado apenas por contato. Pedagogicamente, a nível laboratorial, permite demonstrar a força das ligações metálicas. Solidificada, possui comportamento de um "concreto de meta|", a ser utilizado futuramente como material para preencher de metal os micro-espaços vazios de estruturas metálicas ou plásticas, podendo sofrer infinitas variantes entre rigidez e fluidez, apenas com redução ou aumento da temperatura. Possui Infinita aplicabilidade em espaços de micro-gravidade, inclusive como material de lacre reutilizável indefinidamente.

IPC: A61B5/296
Filed: 2007-06-14
Abstract: A method for position sensing includes placing at a known position within a body of a subject a reference probe including at least one reference electrode. Electrical currents are passed through the body between the reference electrode and body surface electrodes. Characteristics of the electrical currents are measured and are used to generate an approximation of the known position of the reference probe. A correction factor is determined based on a relationship between the approximation and the known position. A target probe including at least one target electrode is placed within the body of the subject and second electrical currents are passed through the body between the target electrode and the body surface electrodes. Characteristics of the second electrical currents are measured and used to generate a calculated position of the target probe. The correction factor is applied to correct the calculated position.

Title: Dimmer output emulation
Inventor: MELANSON JOHN L
IPC: H05B44/00
Filed: 2011-07-26
Abstract: A dimmer output voltage emulator 408 causes a power converter interface circuit 402 to generate an emulated dimmer output voltage which emulates part of a cycle of an alternating current dimmer output. The emulated dimmer output voltage can decrease over time in multiple segments (fig 11) or with a concave parabolic waveform (fig 7, 708). The emulator can provide current (fig 6, IR) that interacts with components of the power interface circuit such as capacitor 412 and can comprise a pull-down circuit (fig 6, 602) to decrease the emulated voltage during a for a first period and a glue circuit (fig 6, 604) to hold the dimmer output voltage below a threshold for a second period. The first period can be from when a dimmer triac 106 ceases conduction during an AC supply voltage cycle until the supply voltage is below a threshold and the second period from then until the supply voltage begins to increase, when the triac fires. The emulated dimmer output voltage can correspond to an actual dimmer output voltage but is unaffected by a non-ideal dimmer output voltage, such as when a triac-based dimmer 102 prematurely shuts-down. By generating an emulated dimmer output voltage, the energy delivered to a load 310, such as a lamp, lighting system or light emitting diode (LED), corresponds to a dimming level setting.

Title: Adapting a maximum total transmit power of one or more mobile devices based on interference with a macrolayer base station
Inventor: CARTER ALAN
IPC: H04W52/24
Filed: 2007-02-02
Abstract: In a cellular wireless communications network, a maximum value for a total transmit power of one or more mobile devices 22 having wireless connections to a base station 18 is adapted based on interference with a macro-layer base station 16 of the cellular wireless communications network. The maximum value for total transmit power of the one or more mobile devices 22 may be adapted based on pathlosses between the macro-layer base station and the one or more mobile devices 22. The invention has particular application to access points, or femto-cell base stations (FBS) 18, for location within a home or office and for which costly site surveys or detailed radio network planning are not possible. The FBS 18 may also select a carrier frequency and/or scrambling code from lists of resources shared with other base stations 16.

Title: Gated precharging of flip-flop sense nodes for reduced power dissipation
Inventor: DALLY WILLIAM J
IPC: H03K3/3562
Filed: 2012-01-18
Abstract: The sense nodes of a master latch are normally pulled-up in each clock cycle before selective discharge of one node through operation of the regenerative latch, but unnecessary node toggling occurs when the data input is unchanged between cycles. To reduce power consumption the sense node which is low, and which will remain low after the latch is asserted, is not pulled up. This is achieved by placing data input transistors 416,418 in series with the clocked precharge transistor 412.Â  The transistors 436,438 provide a small current to balance charge lost to leakage when the clock is inactive.
