Patent EP-1336398-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ARNOULD MARC
IPC: A61F13/26
Filed: 2002-02-05
Abstract: Applicator (1) comprises tubular outer (2), plunger (3), intended to expel an object from the tubular outer, and a flexible sleeve (12) fixed concentrically to the outer between the distal end (8) of the outer and the object.  An applicator comprises a tubular outer, a plunger intended to expel an object from the tubular outer, and a flexible sleeve fixed concentrically to the outer between the distal end of the outer and the object. The flexible sleeve deploys around the object when the latter leaves the length of the deployed sleeve corresponding to that of the object. The plunger is long enough to hold the object in place relative to the wall of the natural orifice while the object is disengaged from the sleeve by sliding the outer and the sleeve in the opposite direction to the direction of insertion.

Abstract: Novel structures for electronically-controlled integral compact fluorescent lamps are described in which the space defined by a folded discharge tube is used to locate a housing for at least a part of the electronic-control circuitry. The housing is provided with ventilation means to allow the escape of heated air from the interior of the housing. This reduces the size of the lamp, and allows temperature sensitive components to be located in a relatively cool region. The housing can be provided with a reflective coating to improve the illumination uniformity, and if made of metal can act as a heat sink.

Abstract: A two piece cable tie (100) is provided having an improved metal locking device
anchoring system. The cable tie includes a strap (104) including a first end and a free
end and a locking head (102) secured to the first end of the strap that defines a strap
accepting channel (122) in the head having a strap entry end (168) and a strap exit end
(166). The locking head further includes a metal locking device (136) receiving
cavity (180) adjacent to and open toward the strap exit end (166) of the locking head
(102) and a mounting slot (130) having an inner support wall, an outer support wall
and a support slot communicating the mounting slot with the receiving cavity. A
metal locking device (136) is mounted through the metal locking device receiving
cavity (180) into the mounting slot (130). The metal locking device (136) has a free
end (138) positioned within the strap accepting channel (122) and a fixed end (134)
having at least one bent tang (132) protruding outwardly from a surface of the metal
locking device (136). The fixed end (134) having the at least one bent tang (132) is
insertable through the support slot. Upon such insertion, the inner support surface
(162) of the mounting slot (130) resiliently urges at least a protruding edge of the at
least one bent tang (132) against the outer support surface (164) to anchor the metal
locking device (136) within the mounting slot (130) and resist withdrawal of the metal
locking device (136) in a direction towards the exit end of the strap accepting channel
(122). The inventive cable tie (106) is capable of multiple strap threading without
failure. The barbed anchoring system and method are particularly suited for cable ties
having a bent metal locking device with a mounting slot parallel with the strap
accepting channel.

first level, and storing the first signal when the clock signal is at the second level. A third signal
is provided by delaying the data signal an amount of time. An error signal is provided by
combining the first signal and the third signal, and a reference signal is provided by combining
the first signal and the second signal.

Title: Method for compressing and decompressing video data
Inventor: MOSSAKOWSKI GERD
IPC: H04N19/182
Filed: 2002-03-19
Abstract: A method for compressing and decompressing video data consisting of an array of individual image points (pixels). Each pixel has a pixel value that changes with time and that describes the colour or luminosity information of the pixel. A priority is allocated to each pixel and the pixels are then stored in a priority array according to this priority allocation. The array contains at each moment in time the pixel values that have been classified according to the priority allocation. The pixels and the pixel values that have been used to calculate the priority allocation are transmitted or saved according to the priority allocation. A pixel receives a high priority if the differences in relation to its neighbouring pixel are great. For the reconstruction process, the current pixel values in each case are reproduced on the display. The pixels that have not yet been transmitted are calculated from the pixels that have already been transmitted

Filed: 2002-05-31
Abstract: A system for sensing a head-on collision in a vehicle, where at least one upfront sensor is used as plausibility sensor, which provides a plausibility signal for a collision sensor located in the control device. The upfront sensor may be an acceleration sensor, which analyzes both the acceleration signal as well as the speed signal derived therefrom for a plausibility check. The results of this check are linked in an OR-operation in order to generate a plausibility signal. In an example embodiment, it is provided to buffer-store the plausibility signal in the control device for a predetermined time. This is of special interest for improved reliability in the event that the upfront sensor has been destroyed.

Abstract: An effective orthodontic treatment is determined by storing an original position model of a patient's teeth. The patient's teeth are then displayed according to the original position model, and appliances are selected according to a proposed orthodontic treatment. A final position model of the patient's teeth is also stored, and the selected appliances are displayed based upon the final position model. A finite element analysis is performed based on the proposed orthodontic treatment and on a movement of the patient's teeth from the final position to the original position in order to determine stresses, strains, forces, and /or moments on the appliances and on the patient's teeth and bone. If the stresses, strains, forces, and /or moments are not optimized, a new orthodontic treatment is proposed and the process is repeated.
