Patent EP-1490131-A1 (EP)
Inventor: JUNKER DOUGLAS P
IPC: G16H20/17
Filed: 2003-03-25
Abstract: A system and method for transitioning between therapeutic substances to be delivered at different flow rates to a patient (38). The first therapeutic substance is delivered to the patient at a known flo rate, a bridge duration (116 or 128) equal to the known volume divided by the known flow rate is calculated; and the flow rate is controlled following introduction of a second therapeutic substance into the reservoir. If the second flow rate is lower than the first flow rate, delivery is begun of at least one of the first therapeutic substance and the second therapeutic substance at the second flow rate at least as soon as the bridge duration (116) is over. If the second flow rate is higher than the first flow rate, delivery is begun of the at least one of the first therapeutic substance and the second therapeutic substance at the second flow rate at least as late as when the bridge duration (128) is over.

Abstract: Un système de support de séparation atténue ou supprime un affaissement ou des vides entre un rideau installé et une surface attenante telle qu'un mur ou qu'un plafond. Ce système réalise cet objectif d'une manière qui évite une détérioration permanente de la surface du mur ou du plafond. Une pince est montée entre une perche érigée et un mur, une fenêtre ou une autre surface voisine. Cette pince sert d'interface à une tête qui pousse le rideau contre le mur sur la longueur de cette tête, utilisant la perche et le mur comme bras de levier. On accroit ainsi l'efficacité d'une installation en réduisant ou en supprimant les vides apparaissant dans le rideau le long du mur.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de lame oscillante pour couteaux caractérisé par une lame à tranchant courbe ou en arc de cercle qui a la possibilité d'osciller ou balancer par rapport au support auquel elle est fixée par tout moyen qui lui permettra ce mouvement de telle sorte que le tranchant puisse effectuer un roulement en va et vient sur ce que l'on veut couper lorsque l'on poussera le manche d'avant en arrière comme pour n'importe quel couteau. Dans la forme de réalisation selon la fig. 1, la lame (1) a un tranchant (5), en forme d'arc de cercle et est fixée à une tige porteuse (3) se prolongeant par une manche (4), par un axe (2) qui lui permet d'osciller suivant les flèches (7) et (7bis). Ainsi, en posant la face courbe (5) de la lame (1) qui forme tranchant et en la pressant sur ce que l'on veut couper, il suffira d'imprimer un mouvement de va et vient au manche (4) suivant les flèches (8) et (8bis) comme avec n'importe quel couteau, pour que la partie courbe et tranchante (5) de la lame (1) roule dessus dans un sens puis dans l'autre suivant les flèches (7) et (7bis) et coupe avec une grande efficacité et sans tirer l'objet que l'on veut couper. La lame (1), comporte une butée (6), qui freinera son mouvement en va et vient en bout de chaque sens, pour que le tranchant (5) reste toujours en contact avec l'objet à couper et évitant que la lame (1) ne se retourne partiellement ou complètement.

Abstract: The present invention provides an adsorbent for
removing sulfur compounds, which adsorbent can effectively
remove a variety of sulfur compounds contained in a
hydrocarbon fuel to a low concentration even at room
temperature; a process for effectively producing hydrogen
that can be used in a fuel cell; and a fuel cell system
employing hydrogen produced through the process. 
     The adsorbent for removing a sulfur compound contained
in a hydrocarbon fuel contains cerium oxide. The process for
producing hydrogen that can be used in a fuel cell includes
desulfurizing a hydrocarbon fuel through removal of a sulfur
compound contained in the a hydrocarbon fuel by use of the
aforementioned adsorbent and, subsequently, bringing the
thus-desulfurized fuel into contact with a partial-oxidation
reforming catalyst, an authothermal reforming catalyst, or a
steam reforming catalyst. The fuel cell system employs
hydrogen produced through the process.
