Inventor: WICKHAM PETER JOHN D
IPC: A61M16/00
Filed: 2001-08-23
Abstract: In a respiratory apparatus for treatment of sleep apnea and other disorders associated with an obstruction of a patient's airway and which uses an airflow signal, an obstruction index is generated which detects the flattening of the inspiratory portion of the airflow. The obstruction index is used to differentiate normal and obstructed breathing. The obstruction index is based upon different weighting factors applied to sections of the airflow signal thereby improving sensitivity to various types of respiration obstructions.

Abstract: Beansprucht werden ein Verfahren und eine Vorrichtung zur Elektrofiltration. Die Elektrofiltration ist ein allgemein bekanntes Verfahren, welches in der Industrie häufig eingesetzt wird, um Suspensionen, wie z.B. Fabrikationswässer zu reinigen. Die Apparaturen zur Elektrofiltration nach dem bekannten Stand der Technik haben den Nachteil, dass als Gegenelektroden zur Membranelektroden (M) große Mengen teurer Metalle wie z.B. Titan, Gold, Iridium, Platin oder ähnliches eingesetzt werden müssen. Durch das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren, bei welchem die Membranelektroden (M) bewegt werden, und die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung werden bessere Filtrationsergebnisse wie bei herkömmlichen Filtrationsverfahren bzw. -modulen erzielt, ohne dass große Mengen teurer Metalle für die Gegenelektroden benötigt werden. Das erfindungsgemäße Verfahren und die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung können zur Stofftrennung eingesetzt werden.

Abstract: A means of assessing the internal structure of teeth based upon use of high frequency, highly localized ultrasound (acoustic waves) generated by a short laser pulse is presented. In contrast to traditional contact transducer methods, laser-generated ultrasound is non-contact and non-destructive in nature and requires no special tooth surface preparation. Optical interferometric detection of ultrasound provides a complementary non-destructive, non-contact means for obtaining data with a very small detection footprint. The combination of laser-generated ultrasound and optical interferometric detection allows for in-vivo diagnostics of tooth health that is sensitive to the enamel/dentin, dentin/pulp, and dentin/cementum interfaces as well as a region of dead tracts in the dentin within a tooth.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verfahren zur Komprimierung und Dekomprimierung von Pixel-basierten Bilddaten. Für jedes Pixel wird zunächst der Pixelwert ermittelt. Anschließend wird für jeden Pixel, aus einer zuvor festgelegten Menge von benachbarten Pixeln ein Pixeldifferenzwert berechnet, der sich aus der Differenz des Pixelwerts eines betrachteten Pixels zu jedem seiner betrachteten Nachbarpixel ergibt. Anschließend werden die Pixeldifferenzwerte der einzelnen Pixel absteigend sortiert. Die für die Berechnung eines Pixeldifferenzwerts hinzugezogenen Pixel werden jeweils zu einer Pixelgruppe zusammengefasst. Die so gewonnenen Pixelgruppen werden entsprechend der absteigenden Sortierung der Pixeldifferenzwerte abgespeichert. Zur Wiederherstellung des Bildes werden zunächst die Pixelgruppen mit den höchsten Pixeldifferenzwerten geladen. Aus jeweils drei sich am nächsten liegenden Pixelgruppen wird jeweils ein Dreieck gebildet. Die Fläche der jeweiligen Dreiecke wird durch einen Farbverlauf ausgefüllt, der aus den Farbwerten der jeweils drei die Ecken des Dreiecks bildenden Pixelgruppen berechnet wird. Je mehr Pixelgruppen geladen werden, je kleiner werden die Dreiecke und je genauer kann das Bild rekonstruiert werden.

Abstract: An inverter circuit for a gas discharge lamp having a primary circuit having a DC voltage supply, a transformer, a switching circuit including a first switch and a second switch for controlling a conduction state of the inverter circuit; a tank circuit having a resonant inductor and a resonant capacitor, the lamp load being coupled with the resonant capacitor; and a capacitor coupled to the first and second switches for maintaining a voltage across a primary winding of said transformer. Accordingly, the required turns ratio of the transformer is reduced by half which reduces the power loss in the transformer, thereby improving circuit efficiency. In addition, energy stored in a leakage inductance, which is otherwise dissipated across the switches of the push-pull switch configuration in the prior art, is recovered or captured by the clamping capacitor, thereby preventing the occurrence of voltage spikes across the switches.

Abstract: A method and a device involving an electric iris diaphragm/shutter are disclosed for controlling particle transfer of electrically charged medication powder particles from a source to a defined target area, of a substrate. Spatial distribution of particles onto the target area is achieved by an electro-dynamic field technique (320) applied to the distribution and deposition of particles in a dose forming process. An electric iris diaphragm/shutter (130) is located between a particle generator (110) and the substrate (140) such that all particles must pass the iris diaphragm for being transferred to the substrate. By adjusting amplitude and frequency of a superimposed AC potential (136) charged particles will oscillate in the created AC field such that only small light particles will emerge from the iris diaphragm/shutter for further transfer in the dose forming process.
