Patent EP-0767873-A1 (EP)
Inventor: NEW DOUGLAS M
IPC: F01C21/10
Filed: 1995-06-26
Abstract: Un dispositif de transformation de combustible (40) comprend un corps (14) pourvu d'un alésage par lequel est introduit le combustible sous forme de gouttelettes macroscopiques, en quantités dosées. Le combustible introduit est transformé en un combustible qui est un mélange d'un plus petit pourcentage de combustible gazeux et d'un plus grand pourcentage de gouttelettes de combustible liquide microscopiques. Ce combustible transformé est propulsé dans un orifice d'évacuation par un rotor (12). Une pale (24) maintient le contact avec le rotor dans tous les angles de rotation afin de séparer le combustible transformé, au moment où il s'échappe de l'orifice d'évacuation, du combustible qui a été introduit dans un orifice d'admission. Le rotor (12) conserve un écartement régulé depuis la paroi interne de corps (14) dans tous les angles de rotation. L'écartement permet le passage de l'air dans une chambre basse pression formée dans l'alésage au cours des positions prédéterminées de la rotation du rotor (12). Un manifold pourvu d'un passage contenant de l'air communique avec l'orifice d'évacuation afin d'amener le combustible transformé et l'air vers une chambre de combustion. Dans une configuration, un dispositif unique de conversion envoie le combustible et l'air transformés vers chaque cylindre de combustion d'un moteur au moyen d'un manifold se trouvant en communication avec chaque cylindre de combustion. Dans une autre configuration, un dispositif de conversion séparé envoie le combustible et l'air transformés dans un cylindre de combustion du moteur. Dans l'une et l'autre configuration, les dispositifs de conversion sont activés par un module de commande de gestion électronique du combustible.

Title: Appareil et procede de collecte et de manipulation d'echantillons
Inventor: YASSINZADEH ZIA
IPC: B01L3/00
Filed: 1995-06-30
Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil (2) de collecte et de manipulation d'échantillons généralement utilisé pour recueillir et manipuler un échantillon de sang et mesurer un composant de ce dernier au moyen d'un réactif ou d'électrodes sélectives pour ions. Ledit appareil comporte un corps (4, 6, 8) définissant une chambre de pression thermique (22) et un orifice à échantillons (10). Une chambre de mesure (26) est formée le long d'un passage de fluide (42, 16, 24) reliant la chambre de pression thermique à l'orifice à échantillons. L'air dans la chambre de pression thermique est préchauffé (54, 56, 60, 62, 63/65) de sorte que sa densité soit réduite, l'orifice à échantillons étant ensuite mis en contact avec le liquide. A mesure que le gaz refroidit, un vide partiel est créé dans la chambre de pression thermique de sorte que l'échantillon liquide soit aspiré dans la chambre de mesure en passant par le passage. Des techniques de mesure optiques ou électrochimiques d'analyte appropriées peuvent être ensuite utilisées. L'appareil et le procédé selon l'invention trouvent des applications dans l'analyse des gaz du sang, du glucose, de l'hémoglobine, d'électrolytes, d'agents coagulants et de médicaments.

The protective tube is arranged in relation to the plunger in such a way that it can be pushed, at the forward end that goes into the uterus, past the plunger at distance (L) , which corresponds substantially to the length of the IUD assembled for insertion. The stop members ensure that the front edge of the protective tube is stopped in a configuration in which the hemispherical tips of the wings of the transverse member of a T-shaped IUD remain partly uncovered by the protective tube, but the wings nevertheless remain pressed against each other.

Abstract: Within a computing system, the main memory is segment in order to streamline data paths for data transactions between input/output devices (46,47). The computing system includes both a host bus (30) and an input/output bus (40). One or more processors (31,32) are connected to the host bus (30). A bus bridge (34) connects the input/output bus (40) to the host bus (30). The bus bridge (34) is used for transferring information between the host bus (30) and the input/output bus (40). The main memory for the computing system is segmented as follows. A first main memory segment (33) is connected to the host bus (30). A second main memory segment (43) is connected to the input/output bus (40). The first main memory segment (33) and the second main memory segment (43) are configured to appear to the processors as a single logical memory image. The segmented main memory is used to streamline data paths for the computing system. For example, a data transfer between a first input/output device (46) and a second input/output device (47) is controlled by the processor (31,32); however, during the first data transfer, the data itself is temporarily stored in the second main memory segment (43). This allows the data transfer to occur with only control information flowing through the bus bridge (34). The actual data is transported only on the input/output bus (40) between the second main memory segment (43) and the first input/output device (46), and between the second main memory segment (43) and the second input/output device (47).

Abstract: In general, the present invention includes a catalytic converter including a substrate having a trimetal catalyst system thereon. The trimetal catalyst system includes a double coat system in which Pt and Rh are together on one layer and Pd is separate on a second layer. The invention also includes three discoveries.
     (1) It has been found that there is a conversion efficiency improvement when Pt and Rh are on the outer layer of a dual layer system while Pd is on the inner layer.   (2) It has been found that there is a conversion efficiency improvement when the masses of the two layers are in a mass ratio of about 3:1 to about 1.25:1 and preferably 2:1. That is, the inner layer contains twice the washcoat mass as the outer layer.   (3) It has been found that the dual coat system can be produced using one calcining step.
