Abstract: An information retrieval apparatus for searching a set of information items. The
apparatus comprises a mapping processor, a graphical user interface, a user control and a
search processor. The mapping processor is operable to generate data representative of a
map of information items from a set of information items. The map provides the
information items with respect to positions in an array in accordance with a mutual
similarity of the information items, similar information items mapping to similar
positions in the array. The graphical user interface displays a representation of at least
some of the information items, and the user control is provided for selecting an
information item. The search processor is operable to perform a related search with
respect to the user selected information item by identifying information items which
correspond to neighbouring position in the array with respect to the array position
corresponding to the user selected information item. Since the search processor is
arranged to identify information items in the search from the array rather than by
searching the information items for some characterising information feature, such as a
keyword, searching for information items of interest can be effected with a reduced
complexity.

Abstract: An article formed by combining a polarizing layer, and a substrate composed of a blend
of polymers such that the glass transition temperature of the substrate is adjusted to the
vicinity of 100°C. This permits the lens to be thermoformed at temperatures in the
vicinity of 100°C, which preserves the integrity of the polarizer. The article can be used
as a standalone lens or as a polarizing insert for an injection-molded lens via an
injection/compression coining process that results in minimal stress in the lens.

Abstract: Le filtre se compose de deux parties. Une première partie est un ensemble d'éléments de renforcement en zigzag placés de manière cylindrique, qui viennent appuyer contre la paroi de la lumière vasculaire et constituent une base de positionnement d'une partie formant filtre. Cette dernière est un ensemble d'éléments de renforcement. Chaque élément de renforcement de filtration présente une extrémité amont reliée à la partie de positionnement au niveau de la paroi vasculaire, et son extrémité aval maintenue au niveau d'une partie centrale dans la lumière vasculaire par un connecteur ou un cordon pouvant se rompre. Ce connecteur central présente une ouverture centrale pour permettre l'écoulement sanguin dans l'ouverture centrale. Lorsque le cordon est coupé, les éléments de renforcement du filtre élastique fléchissent dans le sens radial vers l'extérieur contre la paroi vasculaire dans un état stationnaire pour assurer un état non filtré, sans nécessiter de retirer le filtre du patient.

Title: Disposable intestinal intubator with drain and irrigator
Inventor: MATASOV SERGEJ
IPC: A61B1/00
Filed: 2003-06-16
Abstract: The invention is intended for secure emptying of organism's cavities, particularly for colon decompression. The device combine the drain with means of its delivery in the shape of everting by fluid invaginator, comprising the drain, as well as their intractor. The secure emptying of cavity is ensured by a hose with punctures, placed in drain. The liquid, feeding into hose, realizes drain's recanalization, irrigates its holes and dilutes cavity contents. Transportation of drain into colon is ensured by synergy of two intubation forces. The vanguard force is generated by fluid pressure which everts invaginator, the rearguard (extraanal)-by "cylinder-piston" unit with a cuff. The hollow unit's piston acts as pneumatic carriage, but cuff is periodically joining with invaginator with drain or intractor. Evacuaton of contents is ensured by influx-and-extract method. The sequential connection of intractor and drain ensures not only intubation, but also contents' evacuation through both ends of drain. On the drawing is represented cecum with a distal fragment of drain-irrigation system of device: at left-in "evacuation" mode, at right-in "drain's recanalizaton-irrigation", "intestines irrigation" mode.

Abstract: Une valeur caractéristique de chauffage en n'importe quel point de mesure d'un objet, au niveau de n'importe quel emplacement de mesure d'un four de chauffage, est déterminée en tant qu'invariable individuelle par utilisation d'une température (Tint et Ts) mesurée au point de mesure de l'objet ainsi que de la température de chauffage (Ta) et du temps de chauffage (T) à l'emplacement de mesure du four de chauffage. La valeur caractéristique de chauffage (valeur m) peut être calculée sans utilisation des caractéristiques physiques de l'objet. Par utilisation de la valeur m, le profil de température de l'objet chauffé dans des conditions de chauffage modifié peut être simulé en une durée courte, sans effectivement chauffer et mesurer la température de l'objet à un niveau de précision élevé. Par l'utilisation d'une telle simulation, une condition de chauffage appropriée pour chauffer un objet, selon des conditions de chauffage voulues, peut être déterminée.

Abstract: The invention relates to a motorcycle in which a foam
molding material is used for a bottom plate 54 of a tandem
seat 23 obtained by coupling a driver's seat 23A and an
occupant's seat 23B to each other in the longitudinal
direction, rear-part top-face vertical ribs 251 on a
bottom-plate rear part 54C on the occupant's seat 23B side
are disposed more densely than front-part top-face vertical
ribs 244 and front-part top-face horizontal ribs 245 of a
bottom-plate front part 54A on the driver's seat 23A side.
Since rigidity of the bottom plate on the occupant's seat
side can be increased by improvement in rigidity of the
occupant's seat, the occupant's seat can be prevented from
being forcefully opened, and the anti-theft effect can be
increased. It is unnecessary to provide a conventional seat
locking mechanism in the seat rear part. In the present
invention, one seat locking mechanism is sufficient.
Further, since the driver's seat has a smaller number of
the ribs, seat comfort can be improved more, and increase
in weight can be suppressed.

Abstract: A former is used to manufacture a bag in a packaging machine. The radius of
curvature of the former top along a film guiding direction is between 0.27 mm and 0.50 mm,
the average surface roughness of the former top is less than 10 µm, and the number of high
projections per unit length of 10 mm of the former top along a width direction of the film
guided by the collar into the cylinder. The high projection is defined as a projection of the
surface of the former top that is as tall as or taller than 5 times the average surface roughness
of the former top. It is found that the minimum radius of curvature of the former top should
be equal to or larger than the critical radius that is defined by a radius of the curvature which
causes an elastic limit strain at an innermost portion of a support layer of a laminated film
immediately outside a barrier layer of the laminated film when the laminated film is bent over
the former top. This makes it possible to effectively avoid undesired increase in oxygen
transmission of the bag made of the laminated film.

Abstract: A price revising system is devised to assist a purchaser to revise a trading contract
on a commodity when the prices of materials, parts, etc. for a commodity changes due to
changes in market conditions. The price revising system supports the trading contract by
presenting a display prompting the entry of the selling party data (step ST1), the
commodity, and a price fluctuation amount and calculating the monetary effect of the
selling party for a case in which the price of the commodity is changed according to the
fluctuation amount (step ST2). The price revising system then allows the ordering party to
check the monetary effect, thereby aiding in the decision of whether or not to execute the
price revision thereafter (step ST3). The price revising system then creates detailed price
data that has been revised according to the fluctuation amount for commodities regarding
which a contract for commodity delivery has been established between the selling party
and the ordering party (step ST5), presents a display prompting the selling party to
approve the price revision (step ST7), and executes the price revision in accordance with
information indicating that the selling party has approved the price revision (step ST8).
