Patent EP-0995179-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FRUCHT YAACOV
IPC: G01S17/86
Filed: 1998-07-13
Abstract: Un faisceau lumineux, provenant de préférence d'un laser (68), est réfléchi par une cible constituée par un intrus potentiel. La durée nécessaire au faisceau pour retourner vers un photodétecteur, ainsi que l'intensité de la lumière réfléchie sont enregistrées (72). Un ordinateur analyse les mesures de distance et d'intensité. Des intrus sont détectés par des changements de ces mesures par rapport à des mesures effectuées au cours d'une période d''apprentissage'. Le système permet de poursuivre des cibles à l'aide de données recueillies dans des explorations consécutives de la zone à protéger. Une alarme retentit et/ou une caméra vidéo est actionnée. Un système de détecteur (53) acoustique peut être inclus, qui est capable de détecter des intrus à l'aide de sons. Une unité (74) de fusion des détecteurs permet de déterminer si les conditions de propagation sont appropriées pour mettre en marche le système (70) laser, ou si le système (52) de détecteur acoustique doit être utilisé à la place de celui-ci.

Abstract: A wall for the booth of a coating plant is formed in the conventional manner by a sectional frame (3) composed of at least two vertical, hollow posts (4, 5) and at least two horizontal, hollow crosspieces (6, 7, 8, 9). At least one zone (10, 11, 12) which is bounded by two posts (4, 5) and two crosspieces (6, 7, 8, 9) is covered by a plate (34, 35). The corresponding plate (34, 35) is secured over the associated zone (10, 11, 12) of the frame (3) with the aid of "local" blocking devices (15 to 27) separated from one another spatially. Each of these blocking devices (15 to 27) comprises at least one retaining portion (31b, 31c) which can be inserted in a corresponding locating opening (28a, 28b, 29a, 29b) in the associated post (4, 5) or crosspiece (6, 7, 8, 9) such that a contact portion (31a) of the blocking device (15 to 27) lies against the outside of the associated post (4, 5) or crosspiece (6, 7, 8, 9). The plates (34, 35) are supported "locally" at these contact portions (31a) and are held in place in the lateral direction by a sectional frame (38) secured in a removable manner to the corresponding post (4, 5) or crosspiece (6, 7, 8, 9).

IPC: A61F2/91
Filed: 1998-09-08
Abstract: The present invention is directed to an expandable stent (10) which is relatively flexible along its logitudinal axis to facilitate delivery through tortuous body lumens, but which is stiff, and stable enough radially in an expanded condition to maintain the patency of a body lumen such as an artery when implanted therein. The struts (50) of the present invention have a specific trapezoidal (54), triangular (56), or a reduced radii (58) configuration projecting radially outward that functions to reduce the forces necessary to penetrate the vessel wall thereby minimizing trauma or damage imparted to the wall during deployment. In addition, this design feature of the present invention helps secure the expanded stent so that it does not move once it is implanted, and furthermore minimizes projections into the blood stream.

Abstract: Equipment to be controlled is mounted
on a vehicle (12). An information center (10)
prepares a control program adapted to the
control of the vehicle-mounted equipment in a
valid area (18). The control program is
transmitted to the vehicle (12) together with
data representing the valid area (18) in the form
of broadcast by using a broadcasting antenna

the present position when the vehicle is in the
valid area (18). The vehicle (12) acquires a
control program adapted to the region where
the vehicle is traveling. The effective region
(18) can be favorably replaced by a valid

IPC: G12B13/00
Filed: 1999-03-22
Abstract: An operational parameter of a first element is based on information about
a second element, where the information is received by a means external to the first
element, and where the information defines at least how one characteristic of the second
element changes as a function of at least one variable parameter. For example, in an
illustrative embodiment, an adjustment is made to the output power of an output stage
of a radio transmitter (21) based on information about a transmit filter (41) located in
the signal path between the output stage and an antenna (51) where the information is
received from a remote memory (41I), and where the information defines how the
transfer function of the transmit filter varies as a function of temperature.
Advantageously, whenever the transmit filter (41) is replaced and/or whenever there is a
change in the temperature such that the transfer function of the transmit filter (41) would
also change, the output stage is able to use the information to adjust its own output
power.

to invention a sample with an irregular magnetization
pattern M over an extended area is provided, a raw
MFM- or SHPM-image S is measured, an approximate sample
magnetization pattern M 0  and therefrom an approximate magnetic
stray field distribution H 0  are determined and an instrument
response function IRF is calculated using the raw
MFM- or SHPM-image S and the approximate magnetic stray
field distribution Ho. Other solutions according to invention
consist in that the instrument response function IRF
is calculated in Fourier space as IRF( k )=S( k )/H 0 ( k ) and/or
that iterative calculations of instrument response functions
IRF j  (j=1...m) are performed. Preferably a tip calibration
function q tip ( k ), characterizing the magnetic stray
field distribution of the tip of a magnetic force microscope
(MFM), is derived from the IRF by eliminating cantilever
effects due to tilt and mechanical properties.

Ledit polymère photosensible comporte des unités récurrentes contenant un anhydride cyclique qui s'ouvre sous l'effet de la chaleur, comme celle qui se dégage du rayonnement IR, ce qui rend le polymère plus mélanophile dans les zones exposées aux IR. Lorsqu'on le met en contact avec une solution à pH neutre ou acide, on rend le polymère plus mélanophobe dans les zones non exposées. Ainsi, on considère que le polymère thermosensible est 'commutable' sous l'effet de la chaleur, puis en réaction à la solution neutre ou acide.
