Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de formation de phase solide et une structure associée utilisant des compositions thermoplastiques en pastilles classiques afin de former les éléments d'un tissu non textile en calibrant une seule pastille ou briquette du polymère sous forme d'un élément individuel, en une seule étape de formation. Les étapes de ce procédé consistent généralement: a) à positionner une pastille dans ou à proximité d'une cavité de moulage et b) à forcer la pastille jusqu'à ce qu'elle entre en contact avec les surfaces de la cavité de moulage afin de déformer plastiquement la pastille pour qu'elle s'adapte à la forme de la cavité de moulage. La forme de la cavité de moulage est destinée à former l'élément voulu, tandis que son volume est sensiblement le même que celui de la pastille. De préférence, l'étape de forçage fait intervenir une énergie et une vitesse qui déforment la pastille du point de vue superplastique afin de remplir sensiblement le volume de la cavité de moulage. Ce procédé est répété, l'élément particulier étant formé dans l'ordre approprié, afin de former, par exemple, des plaques et des rivets interconnectés, le résultat final étant un tissu non textile. Les éléments formés au moyen de ce procédé peuvent avoir différentes formes et peuvent constituer des unités de base destinées à la formation du tissu non textile de deux, trois ou plusieurs éléments. Grâce à ce procédé, il n'est plus nécessaire de produire le polymère en pastilles sous forme d'une feuille ou d'un autre type de préforme avant de former le produit final.

Abstract: The invention is a cable assembly in which the ripcord (10, 11) is bonded or woven to the cable assembly's armor tape. This arrangement helps to prevent the ripcords from moving from their initial position, therefore allowing better dissection of a cable sheath and/or jacket. The cable assembly includes a cable core (e.g., soft buffer tubes surrounding optical fibers, a tape (20) surrounding the cable core, at least one ripcord (10, 11) attached to the tape, and a cable jacket (30) surrounding the tape. In a second embodiment of the present invention, a cable assembly includes a cable core having a predetermined axial length, a cable jacket for housing the cable core along the predetermined axial length of the cable core, and a ripcord disposed between the cable core and the cable jacket along the predetermined axial length, in a manner that the ripcord is contained within the predetermined axial length, but the ripcord has a length substantially longer that the predetermined axial length. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the ripcord is disposed along the predetermined axial length in a wavy shape, thus the ripcord is made "flexible", alleviating damage to the cable assembly that can occur from ripcord tension. . <IMAGE>

Abstract: An ultrasound therapy system utilizes a mechanical positioning assembly to locate and aim an ultrasonic transducer. The positioner provides for roll and pitch control as well as control in the lateral and longitudinal directions. The positioner uses piezo-electric vibrational motors that can effectively operate within the field of an MRI system without interfering with its operation. The motors are capable of providing a breaking force to the drive shafts while de-energized and thus aid in preventing motor slippage or backlash. Since the motors do not affect the operation of an MRI system, the ultrasonic therapy system can be made more compact. Two sets of position encoders are used to align the positioner. Course absolute encoders and fine relative encoders are both coupled to the positioning motors and allow for precise control over the position and orientation of the ultrasonic transducer.
