Abstract: A gastrostomy device having an external inflationary indicator is disclosed which comprises an external retention member having a tubular member extending therefrom for providing a fluid pathway to a patient's gastrointestinal tract. The external retention member includes a fluid conduit in communication with a inflationary lumen for providing fluid to inflate a balloon member attached to the tubular member. The inflationary indicator includes a thin wall section of the external retention member which forms a flexible membrane that defines first and second portions divided by a separating bar. The flexible membrane assumes a convex shape when the balloon member is in an inflated condition, while it assumes a concave shape when in the deflated condition. The shape in shape of the flexible membrane provides the user with a visual and tactile indication as to the inflationary state of the balloon member.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un contrôleur de tension amélioré pour toron, permettant d'obtenir une tension aval constante quelle que soit la variation de tension intervenant dans la partie amont du toron. Ledit contrôleur de tension comporte une paire de plaques de tensionnement (9, 10), entre lesquelles le toron (amont 3, aval 5) est comprimé, ce qui génère une force de friction permettant d'augmenter la tension. Une force de charge réglable est appliquée au contrôleur dans la direction opposée au mouvement du toron. Cette force de charge agit sur un coin placé entre une plaque de tensionnement mobile et une plaque fixe (9). L'angle formé par la plaque fixe (9) et le toron placé entre les plaques de tensionnement génère une force de compression à un angle droit vers le toron comprimé, ce qui augmente la tension. Le toron entrant est dévié avant d'être comprimé entre les plaques de tensionnement. Cette déviation du toron génère un élément de force dans la direction du mouvement du toron, et réduit la force de charge en conséquence. Lorsqu'on sélectionne de manière adéquate l'angle du coin, la réduction de la force de charge a pour effet de réduire d'autant la tension ajoutée.

Abstract: The procedure consists of producing liquid smoke or charcoal from the pyrolysis of organic materials, preferably of vegetable origin, in a reactor with a sealed and heated chamber containing an auger. Auger is re-injected back into the reactor.  The material is heated in the chamber to a preferable temperature of 300 to 400 degreesC to provoke its pyrolysis as it is moved along by the rotating auger, with the consumed organic material and smoke extracted at the other end of the auger. The organic material can be chips of wood, especially that used for flavouring or ageing wines or spirits. Prior to pyrolysis it is dried by pre-heating, preferably in a specific electrically-heated zone of the reactor, and the smoke produced by pyrolysis is extracted and condensed in a special condenser.

Abstract: A method and an apparatus are disclosed for current limiting, as is a switchgear assembly having an apparatus such as this. Liquid metal is passed along a resistance element for the current limiting path, in order to achieve current limiting without any arcs for network-dependent short-circuit currents. Exemplary embodiments relate, inter alia, to: an electrical resistance, which rises non-linearly in the movement direction of the liquid metal for a soft current limiting characteristic, a resistance element in the form of a dielectric matrix having channels for the liquid metal, and a combined current limiter circuit breaker. Advantages are, inter alia, reversible current limiting and possibly current disconnection without arcs, also suitable for high voltages and currents, fast reaction times, low wear, and maintenance-friendliness.
