Abstract: A narrow field electromagnetic sensor system and method of sensing a characteristic of an object provide the capability to realize a characteristic of an object such as density, thickness, or presence, for any desired coordinate position on the object. One application is imaging. The sensor can also be used as an obstruction detector or an electronic trip wire with a narrow field without the disadvantages of impaired performance when exposed to dirt, snow, rain, or sunlight. The sensor employs a transmitter for transmitting a sequence of electromagnetic signals in response to a transmit timing signal, a receiver for sampling only the initial direct RF path of the electromagnetic signal while excluding all other electromagnetic signals in response to a receive timing signal, and a signal processor for processing the sampled direct RF path electromagnetic signal and providing an indication of the characteristic of an object. Usually, the electromagnetic signal is a short RF burst and the obstruction must provide a substantially complete eclipse of the direct RF path. By employing time-of-flight techniques, a timing circuit controls the receiver to sample only the initial direct RF path of the electromagnetic signal while not sampling indirect path electromagnetic signals. The sensor system also incorporates circuitry for ultra-wideband spread spectrum operation that reduces interference to and from other RF services while allowing co-location of multiple electronic sensors without the need for frequency assignments.

Abstract: The invention refers to a prosthetic device for the application of simultaneous axial and transversal prestressing to obtain stable and elastic osteosynthesis of fractures. The device focuses on the concept of internal fixation with consideration for the natural frequency of the bone. The device for fracture fixation comprises a "tendon" (i.e, a tensionable wire) least one deformable element at the focus of the fracture, with the tendon and the deformable element being disposed almost parallel, whereby the device further comprises compression means to apply a compression force to the deformable element(s), so that the deformable element(s) deform(s) laterally. The device described can be used for fractures of long bones as well as for proximal femoral fractures. When used for long bone fractures, the device is an intramedullar flexible bar, with which we apply adjustable and measurable axial prestressing in order to compress the bone fragments and preload the bone. When used for proximal femoral fractures, the device is the same intramedullar flexible bar, with which we apply adjustable and measuring lateral prestressing while anchoring it on the femoral shaft exterior. By doing so we compress the bone fragments in order to neutralize the tension forces on the fracture and to avoid interfragmentary motions. The terms "axial prestressing" and "lateral prestressing" refer to axis long bone. The device allows us to achieve predetermined and measurable intramedullar transversal prestressing, which is a prerequisite for the application of axial prestressing.

Abstract: Disclosed is a process for supplying nickel ions for nickel alloy electroplating bath so as to replenish nickel ions consumed as the progress of electroplating. The process uses an electrolysis cell (1), which is equipped with a rotatable cathode (11) in the form of a drum or a disk having a surface of titanium or hard chromium plating; and an anode (12) made of titanium basket in which sulfur-containing metallic nickel is contained. Spent electroplating solution is electrolysed in the electrolysis cell to dissolve nickel in the anode basket into the solution as ions and deposit a part of the dissolved nickel on the cathode, which is removed therefrom as the cathode rotates, and the rest of the dissolved nickel remains in the solution. The solution thus replenished with nickel ions is reused for the electroplating. <IMAGE>
