Patent EP-1520453-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MOENCH HOLGER
IPC: H05B41/292
Filed: 2003-06-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for operating a discharge lamp 11 including two electrodes 12,13. The method comprises applying to the electrodes an alternating current I<SUB>Lamp</SUB>. In order to improve the performance of the lamp and to increase the life time of the lamp, it is proposed that the alternating current has a direct current component DC for compensating a temperature difference between the two electrodes. The direct current component is selected more specifically such that a first electrode, which is expected to have a lower temperature than the second electrode, functions as anode for the direct current component, while the second electrode functions as cathode for the direct current component. The invention relates equally to an electronic circuit and to a software program for operating a discharge lamp correspondingly, as well as to a lighting system comprising a discharge lamp and means for operating this discharge lamp correspondingly.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, pour qu'un utilisateur de terminal mobile (16) puisse passer sans faille d'un réseau d'accès radio (12) à un second réseau d'accès radio (14), un agent domestique temporaire (19) du second réseau d'accès radio assigne à l'utilisateur une adresse de co-emplacement qui devient l'adresse source pour tous les paquets émis par l'utilisateur lors de l'accès au second réseau. Les paquets envoyés en réponse à ceux émis avec l'adresse de co-emplacement comme source d'adresse passent directement à l'utilisateur du terminal mobile, au niveau du second réseau, sans être d'abord guidés à travers le premier réseau d'accès radio. Lors du passage de l'utilisateur du terminal mobile au second réseau d'accès radio, le premier réseau d'accès radio transmet tous les paquets adressés à l'utilisateur à la première adresse source.

Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for resolving an addressing conflict between a first processor in a first network and a second processor in a second network. When an addressing conflict is detected between a first address of the first processor and a second address of the second processor, tunnel information is removed from one or more packets received from the first processor. Based on the removed tunnel information, the packets are associated with the detected addressing conflict and a translated address is determined. Based on the translated address, the packets are then forwarded.

Abstract: A magnetic resonance imaging system includes a magnetic resonance imaging scanner (10) that performs an inversion recovery magnetic resonance excitation sequence (70) having a blood-nulling inversion time (60) determined based on a blood T1 value appropriate for a selected magnetic field and blood hematocrit, whereby magnetic resonance of blood is substantially nulled. The inversion recovery excitation sequence (70) includes an inversion radio frequency pulse (74) applied with a small or zero slice-selective magnetic field gradient pulse to avoid inflow effects, and an excitation radio frequency pulse (80). The inversion pulse (74) and excitation pulse (80) are separated by the inversion time (60). The magnetic resonance imaging scanner (10) subsequently performs a readout magnetic resonance sequence (72) or spectroscopy sequence to acquire a magnetic resonance signal from tissue other than the nulled blood. A reconstruction processor (44) generates a reconstructed image from the acquired magnetic resonance signal.

Abstract: A multicoupling device for lines, especially hydraulic lines, wherein first and second coupling parts ( 7, 8 ) are provided with a plug ( 5 ) or a collar ( 6 ) for coupling units ( 1, 2 ) whose number corresponds to the number of connections to be produced. The coupling units ( 1, 2 ) are embodied in the form of a self-locking, snap coupling with a locking collar ( 9 ) which can be displaced in relation to the socket ( 6 ). The two coupling parts ( 7, 8 ) can be brought together via an operating element ( 10 ) and can be pressed apart and are mutually lockable in the coupling position. The locking collars ( 9 ) interact with a common switch plate ( 11 ). The operating element ( 10 ) is rotatably mounted on an axis ( 12 ) on the switch plate ( 11 ). The switch plate ( 11 ) can be adjusted in relation to one of the two coupling parts ( 7, 8 ) in the direction of closure or opening of the coupling units ( 1, 2 ). The two coupling parts ( 7, 8 ) can be moved by the operating element ( 10 ), which is mounted on the switch plate ( 11 ), by engagement with curved engagement slots with pins ( 14 ) that protrude from the other coupling part, in relation to each other in a closing and opening position.

Abstract: A superconductive magnet comprised of a bulk member
or sheet member of a type II superconductive material,
wherein a distribution of the magnetic flux density
component vertical to the surface directly above the
surface of the bulk member or sheet member (a) has a
maximum value at a center of said bulk member or sheet
member and is about zero at its side edge, and (b) has at
least one minimal value point between said center and
side edge. A superconductor is cooled to not more than a
critical temperature after applying a magnetic field Hex1
[A/m] near the magnetic field generation system in the
normal conductive state, then the applied magnetic field
is reduced to zero, then a magnetic field is applied
until the applied magnetic field becomes -Hex2 [A/m] in
the opposite direction to the trapped magnetic flux to
make the trapped magnetic flux density Bin0 [T], then the
applied magnetic field is again returned to zero, where
Hex1>0 and Hex2>0.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé de moulage personnalisé des surfaces occluses (106) de prothèses (100), et sur les surfaces (106) ainsi obtenues. On utilise des dents spéciales (108) pour les dents postérieures inférieures (126L) situées sur la plaque mandibulaire (104) de la prothèse (100), auxquelles est fixé un support central. Chaque dent spéciale (108) comporte un réceptacle central (110) servant initialement à maintenir un insert (114) de positionnement de la prothèse (100) tandis qu'on règle le support central (116) qui sert de cavité de rétention de la résine moulable (112) lorsqu'un retire d'insert (114). Le réceptacle central (110) maintient la résine (112) pendant son moulage par la dent opposée (126U) qui peut prendre toutes les positions excentriques, alors que le support central (116) empêche les dents (126L & 126U) de se fermer trop loin. On fait alors durcir la résine (112) puis on la rogne, et les prothèses sont cliniquement adaptées au patient avant d'en retirer le support central (116).
