IPC: A61F2/66
Filed: 1996-01-08
Abstract: A prosthetic ankle joint includes a first joint structure having a foot attachment plate connecting a pair of spaced apart parallel fins lying in a sagittal plane. A second joint structure having a pylon attachment plate is connected to a support block positioned between the fins of the first joint structure. The first and second joint structures are connected to each other by a spherical bearing that allows the joint structures to pivot with respect to each other about three orthogonal axes. The spherical bearing is connected to the first joint structure through an axle that extends through an aperture in the bearing. A rod extending from the bearing is threaded into a bore formed in the support block of the second joint structure. Dorsiflexion and plantar flexion cushions are positioned between the support block and respective surfaces of the first joint structure to resist pivotal dorsiflexal and plantar flexal pivotal movement of the ankle joint. Lateral cushions are positioned on opposite surfaces of the support block between the support block and respective fins to resist coronal and transverse pivotal movements of the ankle joint.

Abstract: A plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition process is presented, wherein a precursor gas stream has a high helium content and produces hard, wear resistant, hermetically sealing, high refractive index Diamond-Like-Carbon (DLC) coatings on numerous substrates at relatively high deposition rates. The process may be applied to both batch and linear production methods. Linear products such as optical fibers, capillary tubing, wires, and sheets can be coated in-line while minimizing the introduction of flaws on their surfaces and minimizing exacerbation of any pre-existing flaws. The effects of surface flaws can be minimized further by introducing a helium etch of the substrate surface prior to exposure to the DLC coating precursor gas mixture. DLC coated products can be produced with the desired properties at commercially attractive deposition rates.

Abstract: Objective 
     
     To provide a cycle and frequency measurement device that can perform appropriate window determination by making the window follow the changes even when pulse rate or pitch changes greatly. 
     
       Means of solving the problem 
     
     In a device for measuring pulse rate, first, the upper margin of the window for the measurement result is set 20% larger than the previous measurement value and the lower margin is set 20% smaller than the previous measurement value. Subsequently, when body movements become larger, for the following 4 seconds, the upper margin is widened by 80% from the previous measurement value and the lower margin is narrowed by 10%. From then on, the upper margin is narrowed to +60%, +40%, and +20%. Note that if body movements become smaller, the upper margin is widened by 10% from the previous measurement value while the lower margin is set at -60% of the previous measurement value.

Abstract: An output signal of an opto-electric conversion element 1 is amplified by a differential type pre-amplifier 3 to a predetermined level and input to an ATC circuit 5 as a positive phase signal and an inverted phase signal. These signals are held in respective peak holding circuits 51 and 52 of the ATC circuit 5. The positive phase signal held in the peak holding circuit 51 is added by an adder 57 to the inverted phase signal from the pre-amplifier 3 and the inverted phase signal held in the peak holding circuit 52 is added by an adder 58 to the positive phase signal from the pre-amplifier 3. Resultant sum signals are compared by a comparator 7 with a reference and discriminated as logical "1" and "0". The positive phase signal from the pre-amplifier 3 is input to a self-reset circuit 9 including a level detector 91, a reset pulse generator and a reset circuit 93. The level detector 91 detects a signal from the pre-amplifier 3. The reset pulse generator 92 generates a reset signal in the form of a single pulse by using an output of the level detector 91. The reset circuit 93 uses the reset signal to discharge a holding capacitor of the peak holding circuit 52. Degradation of duty cycle and of signal amplitude due to offset of an input signal can be minimized.

IPC: H04L1/00

Abstract: The present invention relates to processing speech coding parameters in a telecommunication system. The speech coding parameters of a speech frame, produced by a speech encoder, are divided into groups, i.e. so-called virtual channels, in which speech parameter error correction, channel coding and processing of error-free or erroneous speech parameters are performed independently. At the receiving end, the processing (505) of erroneous and error-free speech parameters can thus be controlled independently on each virtual transmission channel (502) according to the quality of each virtual transmission channel. The speech parameters of the high-quality virtual channels of a speech frame can thus be processed as error-free, replacing the speech coding parameters of the low-quality virual channels only. The independently processed (505) speech parameters of the virtual channels are thus reassembled (507) into a speech frame, which is applied to decoding. Since part of the information of also erroneous speech frames is utilized, the use of speech information received from a transmission channel can be increased in speech decoding, which reduces for instance interruptions occurring in speech as compared with a situation where all speech frames erroneous even to a slight degree were discarded. The increased and more focused error indication also reduces the number of undetected errors and thus reduces significantly the worst audible disturbances.
