Title: Economiseur d'oxygene
Inventor: WEBBER STEPHANIE J
IPC: A62B9/00
Filed: 1996-10-18
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un économiseur d'oxygène (10), qui comprend une entrée (26) communiquant avec une source d'oxygène. Une sortie (28) reçoit de manière sélective un flux d'oxygène pulsé ou un flux continu, suivant le mode de fonctionnement de l'appareil. Un levier (30) permet de passer manuellement du mode continu au mode pulsé et inversement. Une soupape (42) est normalement fermée pour empêcher la communication entre l'entrée et la sortie. La sortie communique avec le capteur (46) de débit massique, de telle sorte qu'un signal est envoyé à un module à circuit imprimé lorsque l'inhalation est détectée. Ce module commande alors l'excitation de la soupape pour permettre la communication entre l'entrée et la sortie pendant un laps de temps déterminé, de préférence de l'ordre d'une seconde.

Title: Systeme de mesure du debit massique d'un gaz
Inventor: HINKLE LUKE D
IPC: G01F25/00
Filed: 1996-10-31
Abstract: Cette invention concerne un appareil et un procédé de mesure du débit massique d'un gaz dans un système d'alimentation en gaz, ledit appareil étant conçu pour être connecté à une source de gaz. Cet appareil comprend une chambre (14) d'un volume fixe se trouvant en connexion fluidique avec la source (12) de gaz. Un dispositif (20) de commande du débit peut être utilisé afin de régler le débit du gaz entrant dans la chambre. Un système transducteur (31) se compose d'une combinaison d'un transducteur (30) de pression se trouvant en connexion fluidique avec la chambre, et d'un réseau (32) de modification de signal associé audit transducteur de pression. Le transducteur de pression permet de mesurer la pression du gaz contenu dans la chambre, et d'obtenir un premier signal électrique représentant la pression du volume de gaz connu. Le réseau de modification de signal va modifier le premier signal de manière à produire un signal de sortie qui est proportionnel à PV/RT et qui représente ainsi directement le nombre de moles de gaz contenues dans la chambre. Cet appareil peut être utilisé dans l'étalonnage d'unités de commande de débit massique et autres appareils similaires.

Abstract: An apparatus for converting an analyte of a sample into an atomised state has an electrically heated hollow body furnace (1) with a secondary surface (50) on which the analyte of the sample can be condensed before it is converted into the atomised state for analysis. The furnace has first (10) and second (20) sections, which can be electrically heated independently of one another, and the secondary surface (50) is formed by a surface of the first section (10). Also claimed is a process for atomising an analyte of a sample to be investigated using a hollow-body furnace as described above. After deposition of the analyte on a surface of the second section (20) of the furnace, the surface is electrically heated so that the analyte is transferred via the gas phase onto a secondary surface (50) of the first section (10), which is maintained at a temperature which permits condensation of the analyte onto it. The temperature of the secondary surface (50) of the first section (10) is then raised to that of the second section (20), so that the analyte is desorbed and atomised.

Abstract: A display apparatus and display method is provided for a display panel having pixels arranged matrix form for displaying an image on a effective display area. Horizontal electrodes and vertical electrodes is scanned for selectively lightning said pixels by using a time sharing drive method in which one field period is divided into plural sub-fields weighted according to an sustaining period, wherein an effective display area is divided into plural areas, no scanning for selecting a light emitting pixel is executed in a non-display area, the number of the above sub-fields is increased in an area in which display in multiple gradations is required in a display area to obtain sufficient gradation. Instead of increasing the number of the sub-fields, total sustaining period per one field is increased to obtain sufficient brightness. 
     According to a feature of the invention, another area is provided in which the number of sub-fields is limited to the required minimum in which display in multiple gradations is not required. 
     According to other feature of the invention, another area having few sub-field is prepared instead of providing the non-display area.

Abstract: An improved method is proposed for the preparation of globular
particles of yttrium oxide by the so-called urea method, in which an
aqueous solution as the reaction mixture containing an inorganic salt
of yttrium and urea is heated to effect hydrolysis of the urea and precipitation
of yttrium carbonate hydroxide followed by calcination of
the yttrium carbonate hydroxide precipitates into yttrium oxide. According
to the invention, an aqueous solution of the yttrium salt alone
is heated and kept at 80 °C or higher and urea as the other reactant is
introduced into the yttrium salt solution thus kept at the elevated
temperature in such a way as not to cause a decrease of the temperature
below 80 °C until completion of precipitation of yttrium carbonate
hydroxide. This improved method provides yttrium oxide particles
having an outstandingly globular particle configuration and an
average particle diameter of 0.2 to 1.0 µm with a very narrow particle
diameter distribution.
