Patent EP-0932751-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BOYARD YVES-MARIE
IPC: F02B77/08
Filed: 1997-10-17
Abstract: The invention concerns a method for producing a synchronising signal for the electronic control system of an internal combustion engine, characterised in that it comprises the following steps: a) working out a synchronising signal in phase with a signal locating the passage of the pistons in a predetermined position, said synchronising signal being arbitrarily initialised; b) monitoring the operation of the engine when the predetermined conditions are fulfilled; c) modifying the control parameters of the engine for at least two given cylinders of which the operating cycles are out-of-phase by two working strokes; d) computing for the cylinders concerned an algebraic quantity representing the variations in combustion levels; e) deducing from this algebraic quantity the exactitude of the synchronising signal and correcting it if the arbitrary initialisation turns out to be erroneous.

Abstract: Un appareil permettant de générer une onde destinée à la défibrillation externe du c ur d'un patient comprend une pluralité de condensateurs (C1, C2) pouvant être chargés jusqu'à leurs potentiels de charge respectifs. Un dispositif de commande est fonctionnellement couplé aux condensateurs (C1, C2), de façon à les relier les uns aux autres en circuit pour générer une onde. Une structure comprenant, par exemple, des électrodes est fonctionnellement couplée aux condensateurs et au dispositif de commande, de façon à appliquer l'onde sur le thorax du patient. L'onde comporte de préférence une composante impulsionnelle de forme sensiblement sinusoïdale d'une première phase émulée caractérisée par une première polarité. Dans les modes de réalisation biphasiques, l'onde comporte également une composante impulsionnelle de forme sensiblement sinusoïdale d'une seconde phase émulée caractérisée par une seconde polarité. Le dispositif de commande est de préférence configuré de façon à tronquer la composante impulsionnelle de la première phase émulée à un moment prédéterminé, de préférence sur la base d'une règle de forme utilisée pour calculer la durée de l'impulsion. La règle de forme calcule la durée de l'impulsion de sorte que cette dernière corresponde sensiblement à la réponse de crête de la membrane cellulaire du c ur du patient à la composante impulsionnelle de la première phase. Des modes de réalisation des méthodes correspondantes procurent des avantages supplémentaires.

Abstract: Methods of increasing the growth rate of a human patient having partial growth hormone insensitivity syndrome, but not Laron syndrome, are described. One such method comprises administering an effect dose of growth hormone, preferably growth hormone with a native human sequence, with or without an N-terminal methionine, to the patient. The patient is characterized as having a height of less than about -2 standard deviations below normal for age and sex, a serum level of high-affinity growth hormone binding protein that is at least 2 standard deviations below normal levels, a serum level of IGF-I that is below normal mean levels, and a serum level of growth hormone that is at least normal. In another such method, the same patient population is treated with an effective amount of IGF-I, given alone or in combination with an amount of growth hormone that is effective in combination with the IGF-I. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A catheter/guide wire steering mechanism includes a catheter having a proximal end, a distal end, and sidewalls which define at least the first lumen. An opening is formed in a sidewall of the catheter, near the distal end thereof in communication with the first lumen. A plug is disposed in the catheter at the distal end thereof and includes a curved surface for deflecting and directing out the opening, the leading end of a guide wire (or other catheter) inserted into the lumen at the proximal end of the catheter. This enables guiding the guide wire laterally from the catheter either into a passageway branching from the main passageway into which the catheter is inserted, or to perforate a sidewall of the main passageway.

Abstract: The invention relates to an information distribution system with a plurality of stations (100, 102, 104) and at least one shared resource (120, 122), such as an audio channel. Access to a shared resource is managed in a distributed manner. Each station comprises a controller (154). If a station requires a shared resource, the controller (154) of the station checks resource status information stored in a local memory (156) to determine whether the shared resource is available. If the resource is available, the controller (154) selects the available shared resource and uses communication means (150) to send a status message informing other ones of the stations that the station uses the selected resource. Next, the controller (154) uses access means (152), such as an audio selector, to access the selected resource. Upon receiving the status message, controllers (154) of the other stations update the resource status information stored in the local memory (156) according to a received status message.

Abstract: Un système photo-acoustique de détection de gaz comprend soit des lasers séparés, soit une structure composée d'émetteurs et de filtres, permettant de fournir une énergie infrarouge dans au moins deux largeurs de bande de fréquence distinctes, modulées à deux fréquences différentes de modulation associées ou davantage. Les signaux d'énergie modulés éclairent une cellule à gaz contenant un mélange de gaz soumis à des fluctuations de température et de pression réagissant à l'énergie rayonnante. Un signal de microphone amplifié, produit en réponse aux fluctuations de pression, est détecté aux différentes fréquences de modulation, de façon à fournir deux signaux de détecteur ou davantage sous forme numérique. Ces signaux, associés à des constantes prédéterminées dérivées par l'étalonnage du système, sont traités de façon à générer deux valeurs de concentration ou davantage, correspondant aux différents gaz étudiés. Le système peut utiliser une cellule photo-acoustique dont les parois sont constituées entièrement d'un polymère à la fois perméable aux gaz et transparent au rayonnement infrarouge. Si désiré, un capteur de température et un capteur de pression disposés près de la cellule fournissent des signaux sur la base de la température et de la pression ambiantes. Ces signaux de conditions ambiantes sont utilisés pour donner des mesures de concentration corrigées en fonction des changements de température et de pression, notamment des différences de pression liées à des différences d'altitude. Le système peut également comporter des capteurs de température et de lumière, qui permettent de réduire les variations dépendantes de la température et du temps dans l'étalonnage des capteurs.
