Abstract: A surgical suture cutter (100) that has a "wishbone" configuration and is provided with a locking mechanism (11) having a mid-point lock that allows two operating handles to be locked in a predetermined position at which point the cutting jaw (3) is held flush with the shaft but suture between the jaws of the cutter is allowed to slide without being cut. The locking mechanism (11) is formed of first and second members (42,44) provided with a first engagement element (99) (for example, a hook) and a second engagement element (99a) (for example, a notch), to allow secure engagement of the first engagement element (99) when the suture cutter instrument (100) is in the mid-point locked position.

Abstract: A load-sensor-equipped vehicle operating pedal device includes a load sensor (30) having a case member (34) formed with a pair of mounting wall portions (62a, 62b) converged in a convex shape at a predetermined apex angle α. The pair of mounting wall portions (62a, 62b) are held in surface contact with a pair of rest surfaces (28a, 28b), formed in a sensor-mounting hole (28) in a fixed and positioned state. Thus, even if a direction of an input load (reactive force), applied to a clevis pin (26) varies by depression of an operating pedal 16, the pair of rest surfaces (28a, 28b) always bear the input load via the pair of mounting wall portions (62a, 62b). This suppresses the case member (34) from flexure deforming due to stress concentration. As a result, positional displacement of a sensor is prevented regardless of a variation in the direction of the input load, improving detecting precision.

Abstract: A method of characterising a sample from spectrometric data using calculation of spectral distance values is disclosed, for use in the field of mass spectrometry. Molecular formula assignment of peaks in mass spectral data is difficult and time-consuming, and the invention provides a computer implemented method of finding a most likely elemental composition of a measured spectral peak of interest. The method analyses isotopic peaks in a portion of the spectrum, using both their mass positions and intensities, to determine a spectral distance between those peaks and isotopic peaks of a candidate composition, finding peaks that match (140). A pattern spectral distance is determined (150) to provide a measure of the correspondence between a set of those peaks in the measured spectrum and peaks of each of a number of candidate compositions. The spectral fit is used to determine a most likely candidate composition (160).

Abstract: The invention is a method for anonymously carrying out multiphase transactions over a distributed computer network that comprises a trusted authority, a user's computer, and servers of one or more service providers. Each of the computers/servers in the network comprises dedicated software that contains a one-way function and other information and instructions necessary to execute the method. The method comprises two stages. In the first stage a user anonymously authenticates himself/herself by means of a unique pseudonym to each of the servers that are involved in the transaction. In the second stage the user proves to each of the servers that it is a single entity that has interacted with each of the servers in the first stage and therefore has made all of the preparations necessary to execute the multiphase transaction. One of the features that characterize the invention is that the user's computer uses the one way function to produce a unique user name and password for each user-server pair from a random seed provided by the trusted authority and the  IP  address of each of the servers involved in the transaction.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft einen Wassererwärmer zur Wassererwärmung nach dem Durchflussprinzip mit einer minimalen und einer maximalen Heizleistung sowie ein Verfahren zu seinem Betreiben. 
     Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Wassererwärmer und ein Verfahren zu seinem Betreiben zu schaffen, die die Einhaltung einer vom Nutzer vorgegebenen Soll-Warmwasseraustrittstemperatur auch unterhalb der minimalen Heizleistung des Wärmeerzeugers ermöglichen, ohne auf den vollen Warmwasserkomfort zu verzichten, und die das schnelle Takten des Wärmeerzeugers und die damit einhergehenden Risiken für die beteiligten Bauteile vermeiden. 
     Der erfindungsgemäße Wassererwärmer ist  dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass  zwischen Wärmeerzeuger und Warmwasseraustrittsleitung eine Speicher-Misch-Vorrichtung angeordnet ist, mittels der der Gesamtwasserstroms in zwei parallel weiterfließende Teilwasserströme aufgeteilt wird. Eine Puffereinrichtung dient der Zwischenspeicherung eines Teilwasserstroms, während über eine Bypasseinrichtung mindestens ein Teilwasserstrom an der Puffereinrichtung vorbeileitbar ist. Die Mischeinrichtung führt die Teilwasserströme wieder zusammen und mischt sie. Durch diesen Aufbau und eine geregelte, langsam taktende Betriebsweise des Wärmeerzeugers kann die Soll-Warmwasseraustrittstemperatur auch bei kleinen Wasservolumenströmen komfortabel und sicher eingehalten werden.
