Granted: 1997-03-27
Abstract: A switch has a fixed contact (5) secured to a contact strip (1) in the switch housing, a movable contact (2) pivoted in the switch housing and a conductor strip (3) which acts as a stop for the movable contact (2) in its OFF position. The space (8) between the contact strip (1) and the conductor strip (3) is bounded on both sides by plates (7). In the plates (7) there are three apertures (4) leading outwards from the space (8) bounded by the contact strip (1), the conductor strip (3) and the plates (7) into the spaces (11) between the plates (7) and the relevant walls (10) of the housing. Arc gases can flow out and back to the contact point through said apertures (4) in the plates (7) so that the movement of the arc gases to an arc quenching chamber is supported. In addition, owing to the local reduction in the area of the plates (7) by the apertures (4), a gas pressure difference is created between the front side and the rear side of the arc which supports the movement of the arc gases to the arc quenching chamber.

Title: Diabetes data analysis and interpretation system
IPC: G16H20/10
Filed: 1991-07-04
Granted: 1993-06-03
Abstract: An automated diabetes data interpretation system is provided which combines symbolic and numeric computing approaches in order to identify and highlight key clinical findings in the patient's self-recorded diabetes data. The patent data, including blood glucose levels and insulin dosage levels, recorded by a diabetic patient over a period of time by means of a glucose meter or the like, is initially downloaded into a central processing system such as a personal computer. The accepted diabetes data is subsequently processed to (a) identify insulin dosage regimens corresponding to predefined significant changes in insulin dosage which are found to be sustained for at least a predefined segment of the overall data collection period, (b) identify statistically significant changes in blood glucose levels resulting across adjacent ones of the identified insulin regimen periods, and (c) identify clinically significant changes in blood glucose levels from within the identified statistically significant glucose level changes. The results of the diabetes data processing are generated in the form of a comprehensive yet easily understandable data interpretation report highlighting the processing results, including details pertaining to the identified insulin regimens and the associated clinically significant changes in glucose levels. <IMAGE>

Title: Voltage selector switch for charging circuits - consists of moveable plate with offset contact areas to give two different voltages
IPC: H01R29/00
Filed: 1969-09-10
Abstract: The application is to dual voltage circuits, for example for battery charging duties. The selector switch comprises a flat plate (16) which carries contact faces (18, 19). The plate is inserted into a housing (1) in which the contact jaws (2-5) for the appropriate circuits are located.
