Patent EP-1198200-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KLINGENSMITH JON D
IPC: G06T5/00
Filed: 2000-06-22
Abstract: An intravascular ultrasound (IVUS) analysis system and method is provided which determines luminal and medial-adventitial boundaries of a blood vessel. Ultrasonic data is acquired by a rotating transducer mounted to a tip of a catheter which is inserted into the blood vessel. An intravascular image is reconstructed from the ultrasound data. To determine the luminal boundary of a vessel, a user selects boundary points on the image believed to be locations of the luminal boundary. A boundary contour is generated based on the boundary points. The boundary contour is then optimized by adjusting the boundary points based on a radially determined edge of the luminal boundary performed on the image in polar format. Once the final luminal boundary contour is generated, the process is repeated to determine the medial-adventitial boundary contour. With the contour data, properties of the blood vessel are analyzed including determining the area of the lumen and percent of occlusion caused by plaque.

Title: Impeller for centrifugal crushers with vertical axis and method for making same
Inventor: PONCIN CLAUDE
IPC: B02C13/28
Filed: 2000-08-02
Abstract: The invention concerns an impeller for centrifugal crushers with vertical axis. Initially, that is when it is used for the first time, said impeller (1) does not comprise cavities or pockets, but it is provided on its working surface (5) with a reinforcing structure (4), made of a composite material obtained from an alloy based on iron and ceramic grains with high wear resistance and formed on site when the impeller is cast by infiltrating molten metal for forming the part body in a mass of ceramic grains and binder. The wear to which it is subjected in operating automatically causes pockets or cavities to be formed which, when they are filled with crushed material, act as a protection against impacts.

IPC: G01B7/28
Filed: 2000-08-31
Abstract: The invention relates to a device for detecting eccentricities and wheel flats of rail vehicle wheels within a defined working section using one or more force transducers to detect the vertical forces acting on the rails. The force transducers are configured as load cells that are mounted between the rails (7) and the stationary transversal bars or sleepers (2, 8). The load cells are linked with an evaluation element that determines an average load from the vertical force signals when the working section is traveled on. Said load is compared in the evaluation element with the signal course over time during the travel of the wheel across the working section. If a defined deviation is exceeded, this excess is considered a measure of the eccentricity and is signaled or displayed as a wheel flat. The inventive device is further provided with transverse stress transducers that represent shunt correctors and rail switches so that the device can be used for the simultaneous high-precision weighing of the wagons, for overload control and control of the center of gravity.

Abstract: The present invention pertains to a voice broadcasting method on cellular phone's
buttons. The method is applied to let users listen and learn the corresponding message of
each button on the cellular phone through the way of voice broadcasting in the meantime
while they operate the keypad on the cellular phone. When users dial numbers or set any
function of the cellular phone, according to the steps' order of the buttons being operated,
the present invention informs users the steps' names by voice broadcasting at the right
moment so that users are able to assure themselves whether the steps are correct or not. Due
to the present invention capable of providing synchronous voice broadcasting of cellular
phone's buttons, especially, when the light is dim in the operating surroundings or the
cellular phones do not have any spontaneous light source, users are still able to confirm the
accuracy of dialing numbers or setting functions.
