Abstract: Circuit intégré avec conductance réglable à partir d'un signal numérique de consigne. Le circuit intégré comporte au moins une conductance (6) réglable à partir d'un signal numérique de consigne (17) codant des échelons de valeur pour discrétiser une valeur exacte avec une précision relative .DELTA.p fixée. La conductance (6) est constituée de conductances élémentaires définissant chacune un échelon de valeur, telles que chaque conductance élémentaire est dimensionnée de façon à ce qu'à deux échelons de valeur successifs du signal numérique de consigne (17) correspond un seul échelon de valeur de la conductance (6). S'il résulte du premier des deux échelons de valeur du signal numérique de consigne (17) une valeur inférieure, respectivement supérieure, à la valeur exacte, la conductance élémentaire correspondante est activée, respectivement désactivée. Ainsi, la valeur totale ajustée de la conductance (6) est égale à la valeur exacte avec la même précision relative .DELTA.p, sans osciller entre deux valeurs encadrant cette valeur exacte. Il est possible d'utiliser ce type de conductance dans les circuits intégrés de communication à haute fréquence.

Abstract: A camera having a digital video tape recorder integrated therein establishes various camera settings in preparation of imaging a video image, images the video image so as to produce a video signal, generates camera setting data which identifies the various camera settings (e.g., iris setting, shutter speed, white balance mode and focusing mode) that were established for imaging the video image, and records the video signal in a first location of a track on a record medium, e.g., a magnetic tape, and records the camera setting data in a second location of the track on the record medium. When the video signal and camera setting data are reproduced from the record medium, display data is generated from the reproduced camera setting data and is output along with the video signal so as to allow a user to modify (i.e., process) the video signal using the stored camera setting data.

Title: Prosthetic heart valve
Inventor: STUPKA JONATHAN C
IPC: A61F2/24
Filed: 1996-05-07
Granted: 2006-10-24
Abstract: A bileaflet heart valve incorporates a pivot arrangement that minimizes resistance to downstream blood flow in the open position yet has prompt response and minimal regurgitation upon flow reversal. A valve body, having an axially curved preferably toroidal entrance that smoothly joins a generally cylindrical body of extended axial length, provides excellent fluid flow when combined with leaflets that can assume orientations aligned with the dowstream flow of blood. A pyrocarb on valve body receives a suture ring that permits the tissue annulus to directly contact its exterior surface, e.g. in a concave toroidal surface region for an aortic valve. Identical flat leaflets can assume a parallel orientation in the fully open position or can assume other low energy positions. Flat ears extend laterally from the leaflets and interengage with cavities of unique design having upstream (57) and downstre am (59) lobes separated by an intermediate throat (65) portion defined by inward and outward fulcrums. The downstream lobes locate leaflets in the parallel open orientation and can optionally cause prerotation. As soon as reverse flow begins, upstream displacement of the leaflets causes the ears to contact straight camming surfaces (67) located upstream of the outward fulcrums which, in combination with the fulcrums and a downwardly directed, concave surface at the upstream end of the upstream lobe, positively guide each leaflet through efficient closing which ends in sustantially rotational movement.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de détection (10) permettant de mesurer la vitesse d'un objet de sport mobile, comme par exemple une balle (16) telle qu'une balle de base-ball ou de softball. Le détecteur peut fonctionner dans un court rayon d'action et est de préférence monté à proximité de la trajectoire de l'objet mobile. Pour mesurer la vitesse d'une balle, le détecteur est de préférence monté au-dessus ou à l'intérieur d'un gant de base-ball (14) ou alors, il est placé à l'avant-bras (11) d'une personne attrapant ou recevant la balle, ou en contact avec elle, et qui, par exemple porte le détecteur au poignet (13). Le détecteur mesure la vitesse d'une balle sur le point d'être attrapée, par exemple, et affiche la vitesse de la balle sur un écran (22) à l'intention du joueur qui attrape la balle. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le détecteur fait appel à un radar Doppler à ondes entretenues sous la forme d'un émetteur-récepteur (33) radiofréquence à ondes ultracourtes, possédant une antenne/oscillateur (50) intégrée à transistor unique. L'invention concerne donc une unité de faible coût, simple et alimentée par batterie, possédant un émetteur, un récepteur, et un processeur de signaux à faible rayonnement et à faible consommation d'énergie.
