Patent EP-0447615-A1 (EP)
Inventor: THIEBAUD MICHEL
IPC: G01R11/24
Filed: 1990-11-02
Abstract: In the device for monitoring equipment housings (1), a sensor (4) is arranged which monitors the position of a locking device (2). When the locking device (2) is opened or closed, the state of the sensor (4) is changed. The sensor (4) is constructed in such a manner that such a state change occurs even when the mains voltage has failed. The state of the sensor (4) can be detected by a remote reading device. Such a device can be used for monitoring electricity meters which have remote reading and are therefore checked for the integrity of the seal only very rarely or never on site.

Abstract: GTO thyristors are generally provided with anode-side short circuits to improve the turn-off behaviour. In real GTO thyristors, the short-circuit regions have a shape similar to the cathode emitter zones and are arranged opposite the latter. The alignment associated therewith can be dispensed with if the short-circuit zones (31 to 34) are arranged in the form of a geometrical pattern which is different from the geometrical patterns of the cathode emitter zones (3) and every cathode emitter zone (3) is opposite at least a part of a short-circuit zone. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A further development of a locking closure for pivotably mounted lorry tailgates is proposed, which closure has a bolt comprising a bolt stub (6) and a bolt hook (14), the bolt hook (14) being tensioned in the closed position against a corresponding element (17). If pressure is exerted from the inside on the tailgate by the load when such closures are being opened, the tailgate may be forced downwards and loaded material may fall out. For this purpose, the bolt stub (6) is pivotably guided, in which case a step (18) is provided on it which abuts an edge (21) when the bolt is moved from the locked position into the open position when in a position which is pivoted with respect to its direction of movement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A scroll type fluid displacement apparatus is disclosed in which a pair of scrolls (18, 19) interfit at an angular and radial offset, each scroll including a circular end plate (181, 19) and a spiral element (182, 192). A steplike rebate portion (185) is provided at an outer peripheral edge portion of at least one of the plates. It extends from the outer end of the corresponding spiral element (182, 192), has an inner wall ℓ' following the path of an extension of the involute curve ℓ defining the inner wall surface of the spiral element (182, 192) and its surface is left unfinished. Accordingly, the time for manufacturing each spiral element can be reduced and waste of material, which is produced by turning the scroll elements to finish them, is decreased.

Abstract: A timing circuit 64 includes a variable frequency oscillator 106 which has a control signal that determines the output frequency of the oscillator. The control signal is stored in the circuit. A reference signal is further stored in the circuit. A precision calibration pulse 36 is applied to the timing circuit 64 which counts the output cycles of the variable frequency oscillator (106) during the period of the pulse. This count is stored and compared to the reference count to produce an error count. This error count is combined with the previously stored control signal to produce a new control signal that drives the output of the oscillator 106 to a new frequency which is closer to a predetermined timing relation with the time reference which produced the calibration pulse (36). Additional calibration pulses (A,B,C,D) are sequentially applied to the timing circuit 64 to cause the frequency of the oscillator (66) to converge toward a predetermined relation with the time reference. The timing circuit 64 can be utilized as a part of a delay circuit in an electronic blasting system wherein a control unit 12 transmits the calibration pulse concurrently to each of the delay circuits to cause each circuit to calibrate its local oscillator in accordance with the calibration pulse. One or more of such pulses can be transmitted to cause all of the delay circuit oscillators to be brought to within a required degree of synchronization of rates. The control unit transmits a delay count to each of the delay ignition circuits: A fire command is transmitted from the control unit to each of the delay ignition circuits to cause the outputs of the calibrated local oscillators to be compared to the previously received delay count until a predetermined relation is reached. When this relation is reached, each delay ignition circuit generates a fire signal which ignites a corresponding explosive element.

Abstract: An intravascular catheter (10) designed to apply a liquid medicament or other substance to a stenotic lesion as the blood vessel is undergoing dilatation to facilitate the restoration and long-term maintenance of patency to the blood vessel. It comprises three concentrically arranged flexible plastic tubes (12, 14, 16) and a pair of concentrically arranged expander members (22, 30) located at the distal end of the tubes. The space between the outer wall of the inner tube (16) and the inner wall of the intermediate tube (14) is in fluid communication with the interior of the first expander member (22) while the space between the outer wall of the intermediate tube (14) and the inner wall of the outer tube (12) is in fluid communication with the interior of the second expander member (30). A plurality of minute holes (28) are formed through the second expander member (30) such that when the liquid medicament is introduced into the lumen (32) of the outer tube (12) while an inflation fluid is introduced into the lumen (34) of the intermediate tube (14), both expander members (22, 30) inflate with the drug or other substance being ejected out through the tiny pores (28) of the outermost expander member (22) while continued inflation of the inner expander member (30) provides the necessary pressure for dilatation of the lesion.

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/CH90/00014 Sec. 371 Date Oct. 25, 1990 Sec. 102(e) Date Oct. 25, 1990 PCT Filed Jan. 23, 1990 PCT Pub. No. WO90/08501 PCT Pub. Date Aug. 9, 1990.To obtain optical one-way transmission of bioelectrical potential differences between electrodes placed on a patient and the evaluation apparatus, one of the electrodes placed on the patient is designated as the reference electrode. The potentials of all the other electrodes are referred to this electrode, and the signals derived from the potential differences so obtained are amplified, multiplexed, converted analog/digital and transmitted in coded form. At least one of the potential differences recorded by the evaluation apparatus is derived from the difference between two transmitted signals. The number of signals transmitted can thus be less than the number of potential differences recorded. This process is particularly useful for transmitting electrocardiogram signals (ECG signals) to an ECG apparatus which produces twelve standard derivatives. The optical transmission can also be performed by an optical fibre. The device comprises an emitting part, preferably provided with several light-emitting elements, which forms a self-contained apparatus to be carried by the patient and a receiving part, preferably provided with several light-receiving elements arranged at fixed places in the surroundings.

Abstract: Le système d'étirage pour métiers à filer comprend deux paires de cylindres entre lesquels passe la fibre à étirer, et dont les cylindres supérieurs sont recouverts d'un manchon élastique, ces cylindres supérieurs exerçant une pression contre les cylindres inférieurs en acier. Ce système se caractérise en ce que l'on prévoit un cinquième cylindre (11) qui exerce une légère pression contre le cylindre inférieur (6) de la paire de cylindres frontaux ou de sortie de la fibre F étirée, ce cinquième cylindre (11) récupérant cette fibre, la groupant (F') et la dirigeant de manière appropriée vers la zone prévue dans la machine pour la torsion et le bobinage du fil. En conséquence, le cylindre supérieur (5) de sortie n'a que la fonction d'étirage de la fibre et peut travailler à faible pression avec un manchon élastique plus mou et à une vitesse supérieure sans ''enroulement''.
