Patent EP-0808078-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MANOV VLADIMIR
IPC: H05B3/10
Filed: 1996-05-17
Abstract: An electrical heating system uses heating elements made of ribbons of amorphous metallic alloys. The heating elements have a large area using long and wide ribbons, to achieve good heat transfer to the surroundings, that is low thermal resistance. The area of the heating elements and thus the thermal resistance is determined according to the desired thermal power, under the constraint of a low operating temperature, that is a temperature well below the embrittlement temperature of the amorphous alloy used in the heating elements. 
The operating temperature is preferably kept low enough so as not to generate benzopyrene or other unhealthy or ecologically unfavorable fumes or gases. The thin ribbons with low thermal resistance also have a fast heating constant, that is the heater reaches its steady state temperature in a short time. The electrical heating system uses low cost insulation and support materials, that is materials intended for use at low temperatures only. Further cost reduction is achieved by making the heating elements of lower cost alloys, that is alloys capable of withstanding oxidation only at low temperatures. 
The heating elements undergo treatment using the Manov process of overheating the melted alloy to a precise temperature prior to rapid quenching, to achieve more reliable ribbons with more reproducible characteristics.

Abstract: The high pressure gas valve is closed by means of a compression spring and the pressure of the stored gas. A solenoid is used to open a bore through the piston which enables the same gas pressure to be applied to assist the movement of the armature. The valve inlet port (14) is shut off at a ring-shaped valve seat (22) by a shut-off member (24) and compression spring (26). The bore (42) of the piston (32) is maintained at the gas pressure, through a filter (43), but is closed by a valve (66) and spring (58) at its top end. The armature consists of two parts (54,56) and a distance piece (64) which is longer than the second armature part (56). When the electromagnetic coil is energised the gap between the two armature pieces is transferred to the top of the pressurised bore (42), allowing the gas pressure to assist in opening the shut-off valve seat.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé d'analyse quantitative d'images numériques d'organes corporels de forme approximativement elliptique et en particulier d'images d'échographie cardiaque. Dans une première réalisation préconisée, l'invention détermine automatiquement le point central d'un organe elliptique, et une zone de recherche de localisation des contours en établissant la valeur maximale produite par une série de filtres en arcs circulaires appliqués aux données de l'image. Dans une deuxième réalisation préconisée, on utilise une paire de filtres en arcs elliptiques pour établir une première approximation des positions des épicardes gauche et droit de façon à ce que les filtres elliptiques adaptés puissent servir à estimer la position antérieure de l'épicarde. Ladite position estimée ainsi que la position postérieure de l'épicarde permettent de déterminer le point central du ventricule gauche. Les positions des contours de l'organe sont alors l'objet d'approximations consistant à produire des répartitions d'amplitude le long de chacun des segments circulaires d'une série sur la base du point central. Les contours objets de l'approximation sont alors comparés sur une base de meilleure correspondance avec un ensemble d'arcs elliptiques appariés servant à modeler les contours. L'image peut alors être présentée avec les contours modélisés en superposition sur l'image. L'invention porte également sur un procédé automatique de vidéodensitométrie fournissant une séquence d'images diastoliques finales avant et après injection d'un agent de contraste.

Abstract: When recording using magnetic field modulation recording,
the magneto-optical recording medium which is disclosed is
capable of satisfactory recording with a low magnetic field.
This recording medium is a layered superposition of a
recording layer 13 and an auxiliary recording layer 14 having
a film thickness of less than or equal to 100 angstroms. The
recording layer 13 is a film having an easy perpendicular
axis of magnetization whose value of magnetization at room
temperature is at least 150 emu/cc, and for example a heavy
rare earth - transition metal alloy, a magnetic multilayer
film which employs a precious metal, an oxide like a garnet
or Spinel ferrite, or some other magnetic alloy may be used.
The auxiliary recording layer 14 is typically a heavy rare
earth - transition metal alloy, and has a Curie temperature
higher (desirably at least 30K higher) than that of the
recording layer 13. It is desirable to further provide a
stabilizing layer superimposed upon the recording layer 13
which has a lower Curie temperature and also a higher
coercive field at room temperature than the recording layer
recording layer 13. If HREx(Fe1-yCoy)1-x is used for the
recording layer recording layer 13 (here HRE is a heavy rare
earth metal), it is desirable that 0.08 ≤ x ≤ 0.20 and also
0.0 ≤ y ≤ 0.3.
