Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant d'identifier un objet. Le dispositif comprend un lecteur d'étiquettes électroniques portable (50) comportant un émetteur-récepteur capable de lire les informations d'identification sur les étiquettes électroniques (18) et de les transmettre à une unité de base (232). Le système utilise le même émetteur-récepteur (204) pour recevoir les informations provenant de l'unité de base et pour écrire les données sur les étiquettes (18). Il comporte un émetteur-récepteur qui génère un signal modulé ou non modulé, un récepteur (204) et un processeur de signaux qui traite le signal de retour. Le signal d'interrogation est modulé par les données d'identification et transmis à une unité de base par l'intermédiaire d'un réseau RLE (242). Un démodulateur incorporé à l'uité portable (50) extrait les informations reçues de l'unité de base (232) en vue de leur traitement local ou de leur transfert vers l'étiquette électronique (18). Dans l'un des modes de réalisation, le lecteur d'étiquettes électroniques portable (50) comprend une interface utilisateur qui permet de lancer les instructions et d'afficher les informations d'état associées aux processus de lecture ou de téléchargement.

Inventor: KUNDU SOURAV K
IPC: G01N33/86
Filed: 1997-05-20
Abstract: The present invention provides a method for indicating von Willebrand factor deficiency in a blood sample or platelet-rich plasma sample which exhibits abnormal platelet function comprising: (a) adding a von Willebrand factor preparation to the sample; and (b) testing the sample for platelet function. In this method, the von Willebrand factor preparation restores normal platelet function and indicates that the sample initially lacked the von Willebrand factor. The von Willebrand factor preparation comprises purified von Willebrand factor. The invention also discloses a method which further comprises separating the blood sample into a plasma layer and cellular component layer and removing the plasma layer, prior to the step of adding a von Willebrand factor preparation to the sample. In this embodiment, the von Willebrand factor preparation comprises platelet-poor plasma containing a normal level of von Willebrand factor. The invention further provides a kit for indicating von Willebrand factor deficiency in a blood sample which exhibits abnormal platelet function comprising a von Willebrand factor preparation, wherein the preparation is added to the sample and restores normal platelet function, indicating that the sample initially lacked the von Willebrand factor.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un détecteur (40) de position apicale, destiné à être utilisé en endodontie, qui comprend une unité (42) de commande électronique associée à une sonde (46) conductrice et à une électrode (48) à lèvre. La sonde (46) est placée dans un canal (60) de la racine et l'électrode à lèvre vient au contact d'un autre emplacement du corps d'un patient. L'unité (42) de commande produit un signal d'essai sous la forme d'une combinaison de signaux émis à des fréquences choisies. L'unité (42) de commande contrôle ensuite une tension de la sonde (46) et extrait l'amplitude et la phase de chacune des composantes de la fréquence de la tension au niveau de sonde (46). Des résultats d'essai sont générés à partir du cumul des amplitudes et/ou des phases des différentes composantes de la fréquence afin de déterminer le moment où l'impédance entre la sonde (346) et l'électrode (48) à lèvre passe d'une impédance à réaction prépondérante à une impédance à résistivité prépondérante. Un premier résultat d'essai est affiché pour indiquer le moment où l'impédance passe d'une impédance réactive à une impédance résistive. Le second résultat d'essai indique le moment où les conditions de mesure ne sont pas satisfaisantes. Les résultats d'essai sont affichés sous forme d'un diagramme en bâtons ou sous une forme similaire.

Abstract: A procedure for controlling a continuously variable auto gearbox of a car with a drive aggregate and a manually operated driving pedal has a set point speed of the drive aggregate determined as a control parameter for a transmission control of the gearbox according to a position of the pedal. The steps in the procedure are: (a) to determine a time-variable response function as a response to a pedal operation, a function corresponding to the operation being low-pass-filtered with a predetermined time constant so that the response function rises from zero towards a certain threshold; (b) to determine a time-variable modified response function from the previous one so that a step-function part is added to the latter and the former jumps to the step-function value as a response to the pedal operation and finally rises with the predetermined time constant; (c) to determine a smoothed time-variable response function by low-pass filtering of the modified response function with a predetermined time constant; and (d) to determine the set point speed of the drive aggregate from the smoothed time-variable modified response function according to a predetermined transfer function.
