Abstract: In a method for cold-working a piping component (10) with a pipe branch (16), particularly a valve housing of stainless steel, the pipe branch (16) is provided its length and final bore by forcing at least one ball or a drawing tool with partially spherical surface in direction from an inner cavity in the component and outwards. The inventive feature of the method is that before the drawing of an opening, there is performed clamping of the component (10) in a matrix tool composed of several parts (2, 4, 6, 8), the parts of the matrix tool fitting closely to the greater part of the external surfaces of the component, so that surfaces at the parts of the component to be cold-worked are fixed during the drawing operation. Thereby, the drawing action will not distort the external or adjacent parts of the component or change the dimensions of the component, and control of the form and dimensions of the component is provided during the drawing action. Finishing treatment in the form machining is thus greatly reduced and material is saved by the method.

Abstract: A printer configured to print on substrates that undesirably tend to collect debris before being printed, comprises a print station including a printhead, and a printer body configured to receive a replaceable cartridge that holds a printer consumable (such as a ribbon) and a substrate cleaning structure. The printer body is constructed and arranged so that when a cartridge is received in the body, the cleaning structure is operable to at least assist in removing debris from a substrate. The cleaning structure may comprise a tacky or sticky belt, web or roller. The cleaning structure may be configured to present a sticky surface to a primary cleaning member that engages and cleans the substrates. Alternatively, the cleaning structure may be configured to directly engage and clean the substrates. Preferably, the useful lives of the cleaning structure and the printer consumable are commensurate. Also disclosed is a replaceable cartridge that holds both a printer consumable and a substrate cleaning structure, the cartridge being configured so that when it is received in a printer it is operable to at least assist in removing debris from a substrate. Also disclosed are a method of cleaning an information-receiving surface of a substrate and a method of cleaning a substrate-cleaning member of a substrate printer.

Abstract: A surgical instrument (10,700) particularly suited to endoscopic use articulates an end effector (20,710) by including a fluid transfer articulation mechanism that is proximally controlled. A fluid control (702), which is attached to a proximal portion (714), transfers fluid through the elongate shaft (16) through a first fluid passage to a first fluid actuator that responds by articulating an articulation joint. Two opposing fluid (704,706) actuators may respond to differential fluid transfer to effect articulation. Thereby, design flexibility is achieved by avoiding the design constraints of transferring a mechanical motion through the tight confines of the elongate shaft sufficient to effect articulation.

Abstract: In a method for error handling in transmission of a datum over a communications system, at least two data words consisting of bits are generated for the datum in accordance with a predefined coding rule, and one of the generated data words is selected taking into consideration a running digital sum formed over the corresponding data word, and the running digital sum of the selected data word is used for the formation of a first running digital sum. The selected data word is converted into a code data word, and a bit of the data word is in each case assigned a two-bit string with two different single-bit values. The code data word and the first running digital sum are transmitted. The received code data word is examined to ascertain whether an erroneous two-bit string exists, in which case the error is corrected using the first running digital sum.

Abstract: Techniques for deriving channel estimates with different channel estimation filters are described. In one scheme, a filter selection metric is determined for a signal to be recovered, a channel estimation filter is selected based on the filter selection metric, and a channel estimate is derived with the selected channel estimation filter. In another scheme, a first channel estimate is derived with a first channel estimation filter having a first filter response, a first signal is recovered with the first channel estimate, and interference due to the first signal is estimated and removed. A second channel estimate is derived with a second channel estimation filter having a second filter response that is different from the first filter response.
