Abstract: An automatic speed control system continually adjusts the speed of an implanted cardiac assist blood pump to an optimum level for the varying physiological needs of the patient. It does this by periodically iteratively incrementing the speed setpoint of the pump. When the system detects the imminence of a ventricular collapse at diastole, it decrements the speed setpoint by a predetermined safety margin. An alarm condition is provided if the setpoint decrease results in an insufficient blood flow rate through the pump. The flow rate and imminence of ventricular collapse are computed in real time as functions of only the pump's motor current and speed setpoint.

Abstract: A position indicator for a motor drive for actuating a step switch, tap changer, or dipping coil, has a display board having front and back faces and a first circular array of symbols on the front face corresponding to individual switching phases traversed during changeover of the motor drive from one operational position into another neighboring operational position. A first shaft extending through the board centrally of the first array and defining a first axis carries a pointer at the front face rotatable about the first axis through positions aligned with the symbols. A second circular array of symbols on the front face is associated with individual possible stationary operational positions of the step switch, the tap changer, or the dipping coil. A second pointer shaft projecting through the board centrally of the second array and defining a second axis carries a second pointer at the front face rotatable about the second axis through positions aligned with the symbols of the second array. Respective trailing pointers pivotal on the second axis and not driven by the second shaft flank the second pointer and have entrainment formations engageable therewith. Thus as the second pointer moves and engages either of the pointers it displaces same. A gear mechanism on the back face connects the second shaft to the first shaft for movement of the second pointer angularly codirectionally with the first pointer between adjacent symbols of the second display on rotation of the first pointer through 360°.

Abstract: The invention relates to a residual current circuit-breaker (1), comprising a summation current transformer (2), a tripping relay (4), said tripping relay being connected to a secondary winding (3) of the summation current transformer, and a switch mechanism (5) for opening the residual current circuit-breaker when the tripping relay is activated. The invention is characterised in that if the residual current circuit-breaker (1) does open within a first interval after an unacceptably high residual current has been detected, a check device (6) causes the reversible opening of said residual current circuit-breaker (1) by supplying a current to the tripping relay (4) which exceeds the current supplied by the secondary winding (3). If the residual current circuit-breaker (1) does not open within a second interval after the end of the first interval, said check device (6) causes the residual current circuit-breaker (1) to open irreversibly, by activating a separate disconnecting device (7) to interrupt the supply lines. The check device (6) determines whether or not the residual current circuit-breaker (1) has opened by the presence of a supply voltage which is delivered to the check device (6) by a voltage supply device (10), said voltage supply device (10) picking off the network voltage behind the switch mechanism (5).

Abstract: The present invention is generally directed to a method of producing an aqueous solution of chlorine dioxide from the reaction of a metal chlorite and an acid forming component which do not react to produce chlorine dioxide in the substantial absence of water. The reactants are separated from liquid water by a membrane which allows the controlled passage of liquid water and/or water vapor into contact with the reactants. The chlorine dioxide thus generated passes out through the membrane into the liquid water to produce the desired aqueous solution. Aqueous solutions containing chlorine dioxide produced in this manner can be conveniently used for commercial and domestic cleaning operations such as in the food industry.
