Abstract: Disclosed is a corrosion resistant conductive part, which is made by forming a thin plated gold layer of thickness 100nm or less on a stainless steel sheet, and for which high corrosion resistance is guaranteed even with a very thin gold layer. The part is characterized in that the maximum value "v" of atomic concentration of gold given by Auger analysis is at least 98% of the total atomic concentrations of all the elements, which is deemed to be 100%, in the thin gold layer ranging from the surface to the interface of the gold layer and the metal substrate, at which the descending curve of gold crosses the ascending curve of the most predominant component of the substrate metal.

Title: Appareil permettant de creer une voie chez un animal et methodes associees
Inventor: ANDERSON DONALD E
IPC: A61D19/02
Filed: 2003-01-23
Granted: 2009-09-22
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une méthode et un appareil d'insémination artificielle (IA) intra-utérine transcervicale plus efficace et plus sûre. Le cathéter d'IA si profond selon l'invention entraîne un malaise et un risque de traumatisme minimals et ne nécessite pas les services d'un professionnel de l'IA hautement entraîné. Tout d'abord, un cathéter est inséré dans le tractus cervical de l'animal. Une membrane, initialement placée dans une section de tube du cathéter, est ensuite étendue à partir d'une ouverture au niveau du tube et dans le tractus sous pression. La membrane s'étend dans le tractus sans frottement, réduisant ainsi le malaise et le risque de traumatisme ou de blessure chez l'animal. Lorsque la membrane est complètement étendue dans le tractus, la pression entraîne l'ouverture de l'extrémité de la membrane, libérant ainsi le fluide d'IA et déposant le matériel génétique en suspension dans le fluide dans le tractus reproducteur. Le déploiement de la membrane est facilité du fait de l'amincissement de l'épaisseur de sa paroi vers son extrémité. En plus de l'IA et de la greffe d'embryons, ladite voie peut être utilisée dans d'autres applications comprenant des procédures thérapeutiques, diagnostiques ou d'autres procédures telles que l'introduction de caméras, d'instruments de radioscopie et l'administration de médicaments.

Granted: 2013-08-27
Abstract: The invention is specially directed towards intermittent motion packaging machines where the packages are momentarily immobilized at a forming station for the time duration of the package sealing and cutting. The polymeric sheets or films (24) are sealed and cut after being exposed to a laser beam (20) in a controlled and optimized manner. The laser beam (20) is shaped with appropriate optical elements (56) to provide a desired intensity profile in the section of the films to be sealed or sealed and cut.  With this method, a package (15) can be sealed and cut simultaneously in one exposure step. An optical clamp (30,31) holds the films (40,41) together while they are being sealed by the laser (20). The optical clamp (30,31) can reflect back to the films, partially or totally, the laser beam intensity that has not been previously absorbed. The optical clamp (30,31) further allows to monitor the sealing and cutting process while the process is being performed.

Abstract: A method for detecting an undesirable condition within a messaging network. A  message is received and a source of the message is identified. If an entry in a database for the source has not been created, an entry is created. A source counter for the source is then set to one and a timestamp is created for the source. If an entry in the database for the source has been previously created, the source counter is incremented by one and the timestamp is updated. The source counter is then compared to a source threshold, and if the source counter exceeds the source threshold over the course of predetermined amount of time, a source alarm is triggered. A sliding with respect to the predetermined amount of time may also be implemented to account for total counts that may fall across or be split by set periods of time. The invention is particularly useful for detecting "spam" events and undesirable routing loops.
