Abstract: The invention relates to a method for turning and reorienting the displacement direction of strips ( 1 ), especially of a thin hot strip. The strip can be turned about any angle by means of at least one deflection roller, with roller banks ( 5 ) which are arranged on the circumference of the deflection roller, and which respectively comprise a plurality of individual rollers. Plastic and elastic deformations are avoided due to the fact that the strip is supported at various points by the individual rollers of successive roller banks ( 5 ). The invention also relates to a device for carrying out the method. Said device enables the roller banks placed one after the other in the strip deflection direction to be staggered in relation to each other in such a way that the contact surfaces of their rollers with the strip are staggered from bank to bank, by one roller width ( 11,12 ).

Abstract: A receiver for an orthogonal frequency division multiplex radio signal in which a carrier frequency is modulated by sub-carrier signals (SI) coded with data. Analogue signal processing means (3 to 12) produces base-band analogue signals (I-Rx,Q-Rx) in phase quadrature and analogue-to-digital converters (13,14) convert the analogue signals to phase quadrature digital signals (xI(n),xQ(n)).

Abstract: A surgical instrument is provided, principally for use with endoscopic plastic surgery, and adapted for insertion into an incision for engaging subcutaneous tissue, fat, fascia or muscle (STFFM) through a remote access incision, grasping the STFFM, and enabling it to be moved to another location. The STFFM is grasped preferably by engaging it with a needle and passing a suture through it, with the suture being locked by engagement via a hook, all at a location inside the skin that is remote from the opening. This enables the sutured STFFM to be moved, in any direction, but most often toward the incision as the inserted portion of the instrument is removed. A vacuum and an external clamp are provided, for facilitating engagement of the portion of the STFFM that is to be sutured. The instrument is usable for facelift surgery midface surgery, brow surgery, neck lift, scalp reduction, endoscopic mastopexy, endoscopic thigh lift, endoscopic tummy tuck, and for any other technique where it is desired to shift STFFM from one location to another location, as for example, in the correction of undesirable liposuction results.
