Patent EP-0766950-A2 (EP)
Inventor: JANNETTA PETER J
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 1996-10-04
Abstract: A neurovascular bridge implant provides for relieving pressure from a region of the brainstem within the cranium of a subject with a neuroendocrine servomechanism. The pressure results from the compression of the region by a blood vessel. The implant is inserted by a method which includes gaining access to the region using a first surgical technique; exposing the region according to a second surgical technique; lifting the blood vessel from the region according to a third surgical technique, thereby providing the pressure relief; and inserting a neurovascular bridge implant between the blood vessel and the region to maintain the pressure relief. The neuroendocrine servomechanism is responsive to the pressure relief on the region, causing amelioration of a disease. One neuroendocrine servomechanism can include the pancreas of the subject, and the pressure relief ameliorates non-insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus. The nerovascular bridge implant can be a preconfigured shredded plastic implant, made of polytetrafluoroethylene, or a preconfigured thermoplastic implant, made of a polyurethane-based material having a glass-transition temperature of between 20°C to 60°C and a transition band of about 8°C.

Abstract: The method involves using two gear input shafts and one gear output shaft. Each input shaft is provided with a friction clutch. In the output condition, one of the two couplings transmits an engine torque and the other coupling is open whilst the other gear shaft is brought to synchronous speed. The one coupling is widely opened, regulated by a slip regulator, so that it works at a theoretical speed of its engine-side half at the slide limit. The other coupling is closed in a controlled manner, until the one coupling operated by the slip regulator at the slide limit no longer transmits torque. The one coupling is then fully opened, so that the other coupling alone transmits the engine power. The double coupling gear (10) has two gear input shafts (E1,E2) and a gear driven shaft (A). For each input shaft a friction coupling (K1,K2) is provided.

Abstract: The method includes the steps of comparing the phase condition of a supplied reference clock signal (rts) and an oscillator clock signal (ts) formed in a voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO), and forming at least one comparison signal (vs) representing the comparison result. The comparison signal influences the count direction of an m-stage up-down counter (VRZ), whereby an integration signal (is) is supplied at a clock input (ZE) of the up-down counter, which is derived from the oscillator clock signal and comprises a reduced clock speed. The existing count result increases or decreases at each count process caused by the integration signal depending on the current count direction, whereby the current count result is provided in binary form at m-number of outputs. The pulses of the oscillator clock signal are continuously counted in an n-stage counter (Z), where n is smaller than m, whereby the current count result is provided in binary form at n outputs. The count results of the counter and the n higher outputs (ZA) of the up-down counter are compared with respect. to the oscillator clock signal, and a pulse-width modulated drive signal (as) is formed based on the comparison result.
