Abstract: Eine zur Verbesserung des Sauerstoffverzehrs in gasdicht verschlossenen alkalischen Sekundärzellen bestimmte Hilfselektrode (1) setzt sich aus einem Kunststoffaservlies (2) und einer diesem aufgewalzten, im wesentlichen aus PTFE-gebundener Aktivkohle bestehenden Folie (4) zusammen, wobei die Hilfselektrode aufgrund einer einseitigen Imprägnierung des Vlieses (2) mit einer wässrigen Celluloseäther-Mischung (3), welche das Vlies (2) zugleich mit der Folie (4) verklebt, eine Dreischichtenstruktur aufweist, nämlich mit einer dem Elektrolyten bzw. Gasraum zugekehrten hochporösen, hydrophoben Schicht (1a) aus original belassenem Vliesmaterial, einer hydrophilen Imprägnierungsschicht (1b) und einer katalytisch wirksamen hydrophoben Verzehrschicht (1c). Letztere ist mit der negativen Hauptelektrode elektrisch kurzgeschlossen und im hydrophob/hydrophilen Übergangsbereich zur Schicht (1b) bevorzugter Ort der Sauerstoffreduktion. Indem die Hilfselektrode außerhalb des Ionenweges zwischen gegenpoligen Elektroden, jedoch in elektronenleitendem Kontakt zur negativen Hauptelektrode angeordnet ist, bleibt sie von einer unerwünschten Wechselwirkung mit dem NO2/NH3 - Selbstentlade-Shuttle ausgeschlossen. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A corneal lens implant device (19) includes at least two layers of hydrogel (20,21) with an interface (22) between the layers. The hydrogel layers have at least two different water contents (by weight) such that the difference between these water contents is sufficient to create a convergent or divergent lens at the aforesaid interface. The refractive power of the interface of the implant of the present invention is independent of the outside optical medium so that the high permeability and high refractive power can be achieved within the space constraints of the cornea. In preferred embodiments, hydrogels have a water content of at least 40% and preferably 50% by weight with no greater than 99% by weight and preferably no greater than 95% by weight of water content. Preferred embodiments also include the use of hydrogels having both hydrophilic and hydrophobic polymer phases. In some embodiments, the hydrogen layers form a Fresnel optical surface which may be composed of finite optical elements such as prismatic elements with the slope of each element approximating the local slope of a parent optical surface at the same distance from the optical axis. Thus, some preferred embodiments have finite optical elements with a shape such as triangular, rectangular, hexagonal or concentric rings or spirals.

Abstract: The parallel or printer port (112) in a personal computer can receive data from the memory under the control of the direct memory access (DMA) controller (56), releasing processor resources. The processor (20) enables the parallel port, which then indicates to the DMA controller the desire to transfer data. A state machine in the parallel port, along with associated circuitry, responds to the transfer of the data to the parallel port and then controls the transfer of the data to the attached device, usually a printer (114). The state machine causes an interrupt to the processor (20) when the transfer is complete or an receipt of errors from the external device. The state machine also communicates with the DMA controller to repeat the transfer process until the transfer is complete or an error occurs. Various DMA channels and parallel port locations can be used. Direct transfers by the processor are blocked during DMA controller handled transfers.
