Abstract: L'invention concerne une valvule mitrale prothétique présentant un anneau de suture profil mieux adapté à l'anneau de la valvule mitrale. L'anneau de suture comprend une extrémité de débit entrant et une extrémité de débit sortant, et présente au moins une partie surélevée. L'anneau de suture peut comprendre deux parties surélevées situées approximativement à 120° l'une de l'autre et conçues pour s'aligner sur deux trigones antérieurs de l'anneau de la valvule mitrale. L'anneau de suture peut être constitué d'un élément annulaire perméable aux sutures entouré d'une enveloppe textile, l'élément annulaire étant, de préférence, moulé dans le silicone. La (les) partie(s) surélevée(s) peu(vent) s'incurver doucement vers le haut jusqu'à une hauteur d'environ 2 mm au-dessus de parties adjacentes de l'extrémité de débit sortant de l'anneau de suture. L'anneau de suture peut également être construit de manière plus souple autour d'un aspect postérieur plutôt que d'un aspect antérieur afin de recevoir un tissu calcifié plus communément rencontré autour de l'anneau postérieur. L'anneau de suture profilé peut être combiné avec divers types de valvules cardiaques, dont les valvules bioprothétiques et les valvules mécaniques. Une valvule cardiaque bioprothétique de l'invention peut comprendre un stent de soutien présentant trois commissures d'écoulement alternant avec trois valves de débit entrant, deux des commissures étant situées au même endroit que deux parties surélevées de l'anneau de suture. On décrit un procédé de mise en place d'une prothèse, qui consiste à incliner la valvule cardiaque prothétique dans l'anneau mitral, de sorte qu'une commissure postérieure forme un angle s'éloignant de la paroi ventriculaire, et réduise ainsi le risque de contact entre les deux.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un circuit (74) de commande de transistors comportant: un transistor (70) à film mince et à source grille; une entrée recevant une tension de commande assurant le réglage désiré du transistor (70); une source de courant (82) faisant passer un courant connu via le transistor (70); et un premier condensateur (78) stockant la tension résultante de la source grille du transistor (70) lorsque le courant connu le (70) traverse. On modifie la tension de commande au moyen de la tension résultante de la source grille, et la tension modifiée sert à commander le transistor (70). Cette commande peut entraîner un décalage translationnel des caractéristiques de fonctionnement du transistor (70), et on a découvert qu'il pouvait compenser: le vieillissement du transistor, la non uniformité entre dispositifs différents, et les variations de température.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé pour l'identification, sans se baser sur du texte, d'un morceau de musique stockée donné. La première étape principale du procédé se concentre sur la construction d'une base de données d'identification de musique. Dans le cadre de ce processus il est nécessaire d'acquérir une étiquette du morceau de musique sélectionné et de traiter l'étiquette pour développer une clé de référence se rapportant au morceau. Ensuite, l'étiquette est stockée conjointement avec la clé de référence et une association à la musique stockée. La base de données est construite en collectant une multiplicité d'étiquettes. La seconde étape principale du procédé est la récupération d'un morceau de musique stockée souhaité dans la base de données. Dans le cadre de ce processus il est nécessaire d'acquérir une étiquette de requête auprès d'un utilisateur et de traiter l'étiquette de requête afin de développer une clé de requête se rapportant au morceau. L'étiquette de requête est comparée à des clés de référence stockées dans la base de données pour identifier le morceau de musique stockée souhaité.

Abstract: An object to be safeguarded in the form of a house 3 is connected to a security system 1. There is a movement detector 5 in the house, which is connected to a communication unit 7. In the event of a burglary, the movement detector will detect a movement upon which the communication unit will send an alarm signal. 
     The security system 1 also comprises a control device 9 (mobile telephone), to receive the alarm signal and send an action signal to an alarm device 11. 
     If the owner of the house receives the alarm signal, he can use the control device 9 to send an action signal immediately to the alarm device 11 or he can first check if it is a false alarm. 
     If the alarm device 11 receives an action signal from a control device, it will search for which safeguarded object it refers to and which authorities have to be warned. 
     This security system can therefore warn the correct authorities quickly and efficiently.

Abstract: Disclosed is a system and method for efficiently providing Electric Service Guide (ESG) data in a Digital Video Broadcasting-Handheld (DVB-H) system. There is presented a method for dividing ESG data into basic data and additional data and for separately providing the data, wherein the basic data is necessary to provide a DVB-H broadcasting service. To separately provide the basic data from the additional data, a service provider forwards, during a basic profile session, only the basic data necessary to provide a broadcasting service, and separately forwards additional data during an advanced profile session including additional and high-grade data. Then, a terminal determines if a profiling is set up. If the profiling is set up, the terminal gets access to the basic profile session to acquire the basic data, and deals with the advanced profile session as a background job. As a result, the terminal first gets the basic ESG data necessary to provide the broadcasting service, which can antedate the commencement of the broadcasting service, and which can improve the effectiveness of a data receiving scheme of the terminal in great measure.

Abstract: The present invention addresses a mould for forming a ceramic green body useful for producing at least one optical lens consisting of optoceramics. The invention further refers to the use of such a mould. 
     The (negative) form of the mould is close to the final geometry of the body to be formed (near net shape principle), at least regarding one functional area of at least one surface of the lens to be formed, which can be described by the following equation:      y   ⁢   1   =       c   ⁢         |   x   |   +   b       2         1   +     1   -     k   +   1     ⁢     c   2     ⁢         x     +   b     2           +     a   1     ⁢         x     +   b     2     +     a   2     ⁢         x     +   b     4     +     a   3     ⁢         x     +   b     6     +     a   4     ⁢         x     +   b     8     +   …         
wherein b is a constant and amounts to > zero and describes the deviation of the negative form of the mould from the form of the surface of the at least one lens. 
     The present invention is based on the idea that already when forming the green body of a later optical element a mould close to the final geometry of the body to be formed (near net shape principle) is used, ending up with a green body being already close to the geometry of the envisaged final optical element.

Abstract: An electronic start control device for unidirectionally rotating a permanent-magnet rotor (14) of a synchronous motor (10), comprises: a static switch (22) for series connection to a winding of a stator (12) of the synchronous motor (10); and a position sensor (24) for detecting a position of the rotor (14) of the synchronous motor (10) and for providing a corresponding output (P con ). The device is characterised by including an AC to AC converter (26) having an input (V a ) from an alternating current-voltage source (V ac ) at a fixed frequency connected in series with the stator (12) of the synchronous motor (10), and a single output (V c ) derived from the voltage input (V a ); and an XNOR unit (28) having a first input (G 1 ) in communication with the output (V c ) of the AC to AC converter (26), a second input (G 2 ) in communication with an output (P) of the position sensor (24), and an output (G O ) in communication with the static switch (22). The static switch (22) is controllable by a signal (G con ) output from the XNOR unit (28), so that the rotor (14) of the synchronous motor (10) only rotates in a single direction. Preferably, the AC to AC converter is a phase-shifter (26).
