Abstract: This is a surgical device that, in particular, is for forming a vasoocclusion or embolism. Typically, it is a helically wound coil in which the helix is wound in such a way as to have multiple axially offset, longitudinal or focal axes. Another important facet of the invention is the presence of small diameter secondary coil windings adjacent large diameter coil windings. The device is sufficiently flexible and small that it may be delivered to a site within the vasculature of the human body using a pusher and a catheter. The device is generally linear when within the catheter but relaxes to form the multi-focal form after delivery from the distal end of the catheter lumen. Various mechanical connections may also be used to discharge the inventive coil from its pusher. Similarly, the coil may be attached to a pusher using a sacrificial joint, which sacrificial joint is dissolved by imposition of a small voltage within the human body. The device may be used alone or in conjunction with other coils or with a fibrous thrombotic attachments or the substrate to localize subsequent infusion of tissue adhesives, other particulate embolization devices, or chemotherapeutic agents in abnormal blood vessels and tissues. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention is characterized in that it comprises signal detecting means located before the automatic transmission mechanism for detecting the timing that torque outputted from a torque converter of said automatic transmission at the moment of shifting up changes from clutch before shift to clutch after shift, signal detecting means located after the automatic transmission mechanism for detecting the timing that torque outputted from a torque converter of said automatic transmission at the moment of shifting down changes from clutch before shift to clutch after shift, and means for executing said driving shaft torque control in response to the changes in said both torque signal detecting means. The present invention may detect accurately the moment in which driving shaft torque is most controllable, i.e., the clutch shifting timing so that shocks of gear change may sufficiently be suppressed. Also, as said starting timing of the compensatory control of torque matches with detecting means for detecting clutch shifting, experimental matching for each shift is not required and experimental steps may be eliminated. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Cleaning compositions comprise a builder material which has substantially improved performance and is significantly less expensive than previous builders. The builder material has improved performance in that it unexpectedly has a high calcium ion exchange capacity and rate, and is easy to handle, process and disperse in washing solutions. The cleaning compositions contain a builder material having at least one crystalline microstructure including a carbonate anion, calcium cation and at least one water-soluble cation, wherein the builder has a particle size diameter within selected ranges for optimal performance. The microstructure should have a sufficient number of anions and cations so as to be "balanced" or "neutral" in charge.

Abstract: A method for manufacturing a resin-impregnated endless belt structure is carried out on an apparatus having an outer cylinder having an inner cylindrical surface coaxial with a smaller radius cylindrical mandrel. An endless base structure for the endless belt structure is disposed within the outer cylinder on the inner cylindrical surface. The cylindrical mandrel, having an inwardly curved nose, is then inserted into the outer cylinder forming a nip of converging geometry between the nose and the inner cylindrical surface. Polymeric resin material is dispensed continuously into the nip while the cylindrical mandrel is gradually moved completely into the outer cylinder. The nose forces the polymeric resin material into the endless base structure, and air bubbles out, while forcing the endless base structure against the inner cylindrical surface. After the polymeric resin material is cured, the endless belt structure, having a totally impregnated, air-bubble free endless base structure with a coating on its inner surface, may be obtained upon removal from the apparatus.
