Abstract: The invention relates to a clamp for securing glass panes by means of clamp screw with head and a shank traversing a hole in said glass panes. The shank and head of the screw are designed as separate components. They can be moved towards each other and fastened to each other in axial direction. The invention is characterized in that adjustment nuts are provided with an oblong-holed groove accommodating the retaining flange of the clamp screw. The base of the groove has an oblong hole, through which the shank of the clamp is inserted and guided, thereby forming a supporting flange for the retaining flange.

Title: Device for receiving a send signal and for sending an optical beam and use thereof
Inventor: GROSS WALTER
IPC: H04B10/80
Filed: 1998-07-27
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for receiving a send signal and for sending an optical beam with an adjustable intensity, whereby the optical beam generates the send signal. The device comprises a transmitter (3) to transmit the beam, comprising a control element (4) used to regulate intensity; a receiver (5) to receive the send signal, comprising an analyzer (6) to produce a threshold signal if the intensity of the threshold signal exceeds a given limit; and a transmitter (7) which generates a start signal so that the send signal can be started. The device also has a control unit (8) connected to the analyzer (6), transmitter (7) and the control element (4). Once the start signal has been received from the transmitter in the control element (4), said control unit regulates intensity to a value which continuously increases from zero until the analyzer transmits a threshold signal, leaving the control element (4) unchanged until a new start signal is received. The inventive device is especially used in conjunction with a measuring device configured as a transceiver (13) in an electric power distribution network.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un convertisseur réducteur CC - CC qui fait appel à un circuit de commutation primaire de convertisseur commandé ainsi qu'à un circuit secondaire redressé sur les deux alternances et utilisant un redressement synchrone. Un transformateur d'isolation comprenant un premier et un second enroulements dédoublés va envoyer du courant au circuit secondaire à deux alternances. Les signaux de commande du redressement synchrone sont produits par une commande de conduction de commutateur comprenant une commande de commutateur secondaire qui va recevoir les signaux de commande de la commande de commutateur primaire par l'intermédiaire d'un transformateur isolant du courant de commande. La commande de commutateur secondaire est alimentée par le circuit de convertisseur secondaire. L'utilisation d'un enroulement secondaire dédoublé dans le transformateur d'isolation et d'un circuit redresseur sur les deux alternances permet au circuit de convertisseur secondaire du convertisseur CC - CC de générer rapidement des tensions d'entraînement qui vont alimenter la commande de commutateur secondaire. Ce système permet au circuit de convertisseur secondaire et à la charge d'être pleinement isolés du circuit de convertisseur primaire et de la source d'alimentation.

Abstract: Apparatus, and methods are provided for restoring, and maintaining an open passage or lumen (106) in a body conduit, such as a blood vessel, which has become stenosed or occluded. The apparatus includes a stent (100) which is specially adapted for inhibiting restenosis within the stent (100) after implantation in a body passage. In various embodiments, the apparatus also includes a catheter (120) or other device for operating the stent (100) to inhibit restenosis within the stented region of the body passage. The methods presented include implanting the stent (100) within a body passage, typically a blood vessel such as a coronary artery, which has become stenosed or occluded, and operating the stent (100) to inhibit ingrowth of stenotic material which would result in restenosis of the stented region. The stent (100) may be operated manually to inhibit or remove ingrowth of stenotic material, for example by introducing a catheter (120) which acts on the stent (100), or the stent (100) may operate automatically to inhibit or remove ingrowth of stenotic material without manual intervention.

Abstract: An ultrasonic diagnostic apparatus which displays a two-dimensional
sectional image of, for example, the left ventricle
of the heart by sending and receiving ultrasonic waves. A
reference point is set in the left ventricle, and an outline of
the left ventricle is identified using this point. The left
ventricle is radially divided from the reference point into plural
division regions, e.g. four regions. The area of each division
region is calculated at each point in time, and an area variation
rate is computed from the ratio of the area and a reference area.
The area variation rate for each division region is continuously
displayed as a graph. On this graph, a part with dull motion
(diseased part) can easily be identified.
