Title: Sealing device for introducing cement into a bone canal
IPC: A61F2/46
Filed: 1988-11-21
Granted: 1992-01-22
Abstract: A proximal femoral sealing device 10 is disclosed for use in the application of bone cement under pressure to a surgically prepared medullary canal 15 of a femur prior to the implantation of a hip prosthesis. The proximal femoral sealing device 10 is formed of a generally solid body member 12 with a passageway 26 and a flexible annular wall member 14 extending from the body member 12. The sealing device 10 has an anatomically shaped outer surface 13, corresponding to the exposed endosteal surface 11 of a prepared medullary canal 15. A chamber 16 defined by a flexible annular wall 14 and the body member 12 opens into the medullary canal 15. In turn, the passageway 26 communicates with the chamber 16 and permits insertion of a cement nozzle 27 therethrough into the chamber. In operation, the proximal femoral sealing device 10 is placed within the proximal end of a surgically prepared medullary canal 15. The canal 15 and chamber 16 of the sealing device are filled with cement resulting in the expansion of the flexible annular wall member 14 against the exposed endosteal walls 11 of the medullary canal 15 by cement pressure within the chamber thereby forming a pressure seal. The escape of cement through the open end of the excavated medullary canal 15 is prevented via this pressure seal insuring that the applied cement is properly pressurized and that the medullary canal 15 is prepared for implementation of the prosthetic device 10. A method of providing cement under pressure to the exposed endosteal surface 11 of a medullary canal 15 is also disclosed using this proximal femoral sealing device 10.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling a digital communication system having a central data processor and several decentralised input/output processors controlling peripheral devices, the decentralised input/output processors in each case exhibiting multiple-access memories and their own interface device for internal information transmission with the central data processor and the central data processor accessing the peripheral devices in interleaved manner during faultless operation and with the access of the central data processor to the multiple-access memory of in each case a particular input/output processor, the latter being switched into the hold state for a time corresponding to the maximum occupation time of the central data processor. The central data processor (DP) places the decentralised input/output processor (IOP) into the hold state. The peripheral program requests occurring during this process are stored in the multiple-access memory (DPR) and are subsequently sequentially processed by the timing device (ZE) of the input/output processor (IOP) after the central data processor (DP) has been blocked. Such a method is used for controlling digital communication systems in which a central data processor and decentralised input/output processors have shared access to one memory. <IMAGE>

Title: Procede de tirage et de nucleation par regions selectives servant a la deposition en phase gazeuse de metal par procede chimique au moyen de faisceaux ioniques focalises
IPC: H01L21/28
Filed: 1989-04-14
Granted: 1993-06-02
Abstract: Le procédé décrit qui sert à déposer des circuits métalliques sur une puce de circuit imprimé (52) ou sur un masque, utilise un faisceau ionique focalisé (44) ayant un dosage ionique considérablement inférieur à ce qui était antérieurement nécessaire, soit de l'ordre de 1014 à 1015 ions/cm2. Un substrat (32) est balayé avec le faisceau ionique focalisé (44) pour produire une série de sites de nucléation (46) sur la surface (42) du substrat. Ces sites de nucléation (46) peuvent se trouver sur une couche contiguë (42) ou peuvent être produits par attaque réticulaire ou par vaporisation directement dans le matériau du substrat (32). Le substrat (32) est ensuite exposé à un gaz source contenant le matériau à déposer, pendant qu'il est chauffé à une température légèrement inférieure à la température de décomposition thermique spontannée du gaz source. On obtient ainsi un circuit bien défini de matériaux déposés depuis le gaz source le long du circuit (50) défini par les sites de nucléation (46). Le rapport entre l'énergie d'activation spontanée et l'énergie d'activation autocatalytique pour les gaz se situe de préférence au moins aux environs d'un ordre de grandeur et le faisceau ionique focalisé (44) est de préférence déplacé en balayages multiples à travers le circuit désiré (50). Dans un mode de réalisation particulier, la couche contiguë (42) et le gaz source contiennent tous les deux du pentacarbonyle de fer et un dosage ionique de 3x1014 ions/cm2 est utilisé et le substrat (32) est chauffé à une température d'environ 130°C. Le dosage ionique est suffisamment faible pour que le système soit compatible avec d'autres procédés utilisant un faisceau ionique focalisé, tel que la lithographie, l'implantation et la vaporisation. Parmi les applications on trouve la fabrication et la réparation à la fois de circuits intégrés (52) et de masques.

Abstract: An apparatus for cutting and shaping a spherical body of a sticky material, comprising an assembly consisting of a number of rotary members (10) for collectively forming an enclosure at the center thereof to cut and shape the material passing through the enclosure. Each of the members has curved side surfaces (Y1, Y2) such that the enclosure is confined through the exposed part of one set of curved side surfaces of the members which pivotally swing to open and close the enclosure. The tip of each of the members follows the exposed curved side surface of the adjacent member to scrape off the material adhering thereto, and each of the members has a uniform thickness that is thick enough to preclude the member from wedging into the material and that decreases towards the tip thereof, so that substantially spherical products can be continuously produced without generating any difficulty caused by the material adhering to the cutting members or by the filling protruding through the coating even when processing very sticky, soft materials. <IMAGE>
