Abstract: A system for leak testing industrial components, such as engine blocks (12), is disclosed and includes a conveyor system (20) for transporting the engine components to and from a test area (14) having a support surface (16). A robot (22) is operable in the test area and includes a manipulator (24) which engages and moves the industrial components. At least two leak test units (30) are provided where each leak test unit includes a shuttle (34) for receiving the industrial component from the robot and thereafter subjecting that industrial component to a leak test. Each leak test unit then generates a failure output signal in response to a failed leak test on the industrial component. Each leak test unit is movably mounted (62, 64) to the test area support surface between an operable position and an inoperable position. In its operable position the leak test unit is positioned in the test area to receive the industrial components from the robot and perform the leak test. Conversely, in its retracted position (52), the leak test unit is positioned outside of the test area for maintenance, repair or the like. A robot control circuit (26) controls the movement of the industrial components by the robot between the conveyor system and one or more of the selected leak test units in response to at least one control factor, such as a failure output from one of the leak test units.

Abstract: The present invention is related to a method and system for multicast service announcement in a cell that includes a core network, a UTRAN, and one or more mobile network nodes. The UTRAN includes a RNC. The RNC continuously sends multicast service announcements in a frame over a channel such as a PICH. The frame may include a type field and an indication field where the type field contains information related to the type of information in the indication field, or the frame may include a current service announcement identification field, a next service announcement identification field, and a time offset field. The type field can be used also to separate long term scheduling announcement or service advertising frames from the multicast/broadcast data frames, or the type field can be used to separate the multicast/broadcast control frames from the multicast/broadcast data frames.

Abstract: A neurostimulation lead includes fiber optic cable. A human-implantable neurostimulator and neurostimulation lead each include an opto-electric transducer. The opto-electric transducers can be an optical transmitter, an optical receiver, or an optical transducer, that converts: electrical energy to optical energy; optical energy to electrical energy; or both electrical energy to optical energy and optical energy to electrical energy. Neurostimulation-lead electrodes can be activated, and/or lead-status information can be transmitted, over the fiber optic cable, between the neurostimulator and the neurostimulation lead. A neurostimulation-lead power converter may be coupled to a pulse generator of the neurostimulator such that the power converter derives and stores power for the lead from stimulation pulses received from the stimulation-pulse generator.

Abstract: In the present specification we describe a new class of compounds, designed to modulate the ability of blood vessels to synthesize NO from L-arginine. In particular we have identified novel compounds which enhance the entry of L-arginine into cells. These compounds improve endothelial function, and thereby have the potential to retard the progression of vascular disease in conditions such as hypertension, heart failure and diabetes. This new class of drugs may also have other potentially, relevant pharmacological actions, including anti-hypertensive and anti-anginal actions.

Abstract: Power for one or more luminaire accessories is extracted from a series of lamp operating pulses provided by a phase angle dimmer. A DC power supply is connected to the output of the dimmer to develop and store DC accessory power. A lamp controller is connected to the output of the dimmer to transfer power from the lamp operating pulses to the lamp. The lamp controller has a variable pulse transfer characteristic for providing lamp power without lamp performance degradation caused by accessory power variations. The variable pulse transfer characteristic can be implemented by a switching device that interrupts or blocks selected portions of the lamp operating pulses. The pulse transfer characteristic maintains constant apparent lamp brilliance independent of variations in accessory power requirements. In an off or in a preheat condition, power transfer to the lamp is reduced to prevent emission of a visible light beam. In a full brilliance condition, the lamp operating pulses are essentially unmodified by the lamp controller.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un gestionnaire de réacheminement OPC permettant de maintenir les informations nécessaires pour prendre une mesure appropriée lorsque le serveur OPC cible tombe en panne, et pour garantir qu'aucun état de mauvais fonctionnement n'est envoyé en retour au client. Tout client OPC existant exigeant une reprise sur panne sans coupure entre des serveurs d'accès à des données OPC cibles et/ou des serveurs d'alarmes et d'événements se connecte à une instance configurée de manière unique du gestionnaire de réacheminement, au lieu de se connecter au serveur primaire. L'application client continue à effectuer des tâches associées à l'OPC, comme à l'habitude. Chaque connexion de client étant unique, le gestionnaire de réacheminement lui-même ne constitue pas un point unique de panne. Chaque instance de gestionnaire de réacheminement configurée surveille le bon fonctionnement du mode de serveur cible et le serveur cible lui-même, par le biais d'une souscription à des événements de panne.

Abstract: System and method for deploying or executing a graphical program to a device in a wireless manner. A graphical program (GP) is created that implements a measurement function. Some or all of the GP is transmitted to a hub over a network. The hub executes the transmitted GP and sends corresponding commands to a measurement device via wireless means in accordance with a wireless communication protocol. The measurement device executes the commands to perform the measurement function, thereby generating resultant data which is sent back to the hub or computer system wirelessly. The GP may include a block diagram that executes on the measurement device, and a user interface portion that is displayed by a first computer system. Transmitting the GP to the hub may include generating a machine-executable program based on the GP and transmitting the machine-executable program to the hub for execution. Alternatively, a plurality of execution system components is stored on a host computer. The program is analyzed programmatically to determine a subset of the components required for execution of the program, and the subset and the program combined into a file, preserving execution order of the program. The file is transmitted to the device and used to construct a combined program including executable code for the program and the subset of components. The device includes a minimal execution engine which executes the subset of components to execute the program. The file may be streamed to the device for streaming execution, where received portions of the subset of components needed for execution of received portions of the program are stored until no longer needed.

Abstract: A tooth implant is used to replace a front tooth which has been lost or extracted. The implant comprises an anchoring part which is provided with an outer thread and which is applied in a recess formed in the jaw bone at the site of the lost or extracted tooth, a spacer sleeve part intended to extend through the gum of the jaw bone, and a prepared or preparable part which adjoins the spacer sleeve part and is intended to support a dental crown, for example. The anchoring part, the spacer sleeve part and the prepared or preparable part are arranged in one piece, the configuration and direction of the prepared or preparable part being substantially adapted or adaptable to the anatomy of the lost or extracted tooth, for example to the inner arc-shaped surface, and to the direction of said tooth.
