Patent EP-0385116-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61N1/375
Filed: 1990-01-30
Abstract: A connector (1) for a pacemaker electrode lead (2) has a plug pin (3), which is hollow in the longitudinal direction, for connection to a pacemaker and an insulating sheath (6) having, in the extension of the plug pin (3), a socket aperture (4) for receiving the free end (5) of the electrode lead (2), the electrically conducting connection being produced by clamping. In this arrangement, the longitudinal interior cavity (7) of the plug pin (3) fits over the insulated end (5) of the electrode lead and can be radially deformed for clamping thereto. At its end (3b) remote from the socket end (3a), the plug pin (3) carries the insulating sheath (6) with an insertion element (8) for the insulated region (5a) of the end (5) of the electrode lead, which lines the interior cavity (4) of the insulating sheath (6) to the extent that the remaining insulation (9) of the region (5a) can be easily pushed into the insulating sheath (6). The inlet element (8) projects beyond the end of the insulating sheath (6) and can be easily withdrawn after assembly. Clamping screws having a space requirement in the radial direction are advantageously avoided, so that the radial expansion of the connector (1) is correspondingly slight.

Title: Radiation responsive methods and sensors
IPC: G01D5/38
Filed: 1990-02-09
Abstract: A sensor and method are described which use light 
diffracted from diffracting elements (20) having at least 
one region of nonuniformity. The sensor is useful for 
monitoring displacement, stress, temperature and 
pressure. The diffraction grating (20) is fabricated 
from first and second gratings (22,24) and has a 
step-wise change in the grating period at an 
inter-grating boundary (26). The grating is illuminated 
with broadband light from a source (12) which is 
diffracted as a function of the irradiated position on 
the grating with the wavelength of the diffracted light 
and the change in wavelength is a function of the 
diffraction grating position. In another form of the 
present invention, a diffraction grating is provided with 
a variable grating period which can vary linearly, 
exponentially, or in accordance with some other function, 
the wavelength of the diffracted light being a function 
of the relative displacement of the grating. 
Additionally, gratings can be combined to provide a 
transducer that provides an output that can be 
compensated for temperature variations.

Title: Polymerization catalyst for olefins
IPC: C08F10/00
Filed: 1991-01-16
Abstract: The present invention concerns a polymerization catalyst of olefins, said catalyst containing an active chromium compound on an inorganic support. The catalyst in accordance with the invention is prepared by vapourizing a precursor of chromium oxide such as chromyl chloride and allowing the chromium oxide vapour to react with the surface of, e.g., silica gel support material at 160...500 DEG C. A selective binding of the chromium oxide to the support material is achieved by keeping the vapour pressure sufficiently high and the duration of interaction with the support sufficiently long so as to maintain an excess of the chromium compound in relation to the number of available binding sites on the support material. The activity of a catalyst in accordance with the invention even with a very low content of catalytic metal is as high as the activity of a catalyst of an appreciably higher metal content that has been prepared by the methods of the conventional technology.

Abstract: A ligand-mediated immunofunctional assay (LIFA) method for detecting the
presence and the concentration of polypeptide hormone binding proteins which
comprises capturing the binding protein with a solid phase bound first antibody,
saturating the bound hormone binding protein with the ligand polypeptide hormone,
and detecting the bound ligand polypeptide hormone with a detectably labeled second
antibody specific for the ligand polypeptide hormone. In the absence of added
saturating polypeptide hormone, the LIFA measures the amount of hormone binding
protein bound to the endogenous ligand polypeptide hormone. A growth hormone
binding protein assay illustrates the method of the present invention. LIFA assay
results indicate that increased binding protein substantially increases growth
hormone activity. Methods of use and formulations of growth hormone binding
protein, growth hormone, insulin-like growth factor-I and insulin-like growth
factor binding protein are disclosed.

Abstract: In an electronic watch, a hand wheel gear 109b in a gear
train has a tooth 124 having a profile K so as to prevent the
backward movement of a hand 104. During initialization, the
gear train is rotated backward such that the hand 104 is
turned to the backward movement preventing position, which
serves as an initializing position, and a reference position
during detection of a hand position. Usually, a backward
movement command is issued when the hand 104 is supposed to
be at the reference position. The hand 104 is judged to be
out of the reference position when its backward movement is
detected.

Title: Delivery catheter for electrolytically detachable implant
Inventor: MILLS TIMOTHY
IPC: A61M31/00
Filed: 1996-04-26
Abstract: The invention involves a catheter for introducing a delivery member such as a guidewire having an implant coupled thereto via an electrolytically disintegratable link that is coupled to the anode of a power supply having an anode and a cathode. The catheter comprises an elongated tubular member having an outer surface, proximal and distal end portions, a lumen extending between those portions, an electrode and a conductor. The electrode is disposed within the outer surface of the tubular member in the vicinity of the distal end portion and has a surface that faces and communicates with the lumen. The electrode is electrically coupled to the conductor which, in turn, is adapted for coupling to the power supply cathode such that when the electrolytically disintegratable link is placed in an electrolytic solution, such as can be found in an aneurysm, and positive current is provided from the power supply to the link, current from the link may return to the cathode of the power supply via the electrode. With this construction, the electrode is shielded from endolumenal structures which could otherwise increase the resistance in the current path from the sacrificial link to the electrode. The positioning of the electrode in the catheter as described above allows a reproducible impedance path from the electrode to the detachment zone, thus reducing detachment time variability. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A focal plane array (FPA) including a layered composite structure having several layers of
materials with differing thermal expansion coefficients (TECs) and thicknesses to stabilize and
maintain FPA performance during thermal cycling and excursions. An optical substrate is coupled
to a multiplexer through a network of indium bumps. The typical TEC mismatch of the layered
materials is offset by particularly selecting the types of materials used and the thicknesses of the
individual layers of the FPA. Consequently, undesirable deflections and distortion of the
multiplexer and the indium bumps are minimized, thereby substantially improving FPA reliability.
