Patent DE-69328548-T2 (DE)
Inventor: CARR E
IPC: G01N33/487
Filed: 1993-01-15

Abstract: The performance of platelets can be best understood by monitoring both the force development and the elastic modulus of the blood clot during both clotting and dissolution of the blood clot. Intermittent application and removal of a compressive force on a blood sample (8) positioned between a pair of plates (12 and 14) throughout clot formation and dissolution provides a standard for using voltage output from a transducer (22) to determine force and elastic modulus parameters. Force development arises from the internal actions of the platelets during clot retraction. Elastic modulus provides a measure of the stiffness of the clot. Clotting can be measured as an increase in force development and clot elastic modulus. Clot dissolution can be determined by a dramatic decrease in force development and in elastic modulus. Providing the blood sample with a clot dissolving agent such as tPA allows determining the fibrinolytic potential of whole blood and, thus, aids in identifying patients at risk for thrombosis due to a decreased ability to dissolve clots. Clot elastic modulus provides a measure of erythrocyte flexibility.

Abstract: An apparatus (10) for feeding and tensioning a strap (12) in a power strapping machine comprises a strap feeding mechanism (30), a strap tensioning mechanism (40), and a pivoting roller carriage (50) pivoted by a feeding and tensioning cam (70). The pivoting roller carriage (50) is first pivoted in one direction to move feed rollers (32, 34) together to engage a portion of a strap (12) and feed the strap (12) toward a strap application assembly where the strap is formed in a loop about an object or group of objects. The strap feeding and tensioning mechanism (10) actuates a first gripper (not shown) that secures an end of the strap in the strap application assembly. The pivoting roller carriage (50) then is pivoted to the opposite direction to move tension rollers (42, 44) together to engage a portion of the strap (12) and apply a tension to the looped strap. The strap feeding and tensioning apparatus (10) also actuates a second gripper (not shown) that secures the tensioned strap in a closed loop about the package so that the strap application assembly may form a strap joint sealing the strap in the closed loop. In the event that the strap (12) is not properly engaged by the first gripper, the strap will be fully retracted from the strap application assembly by the strap tensioning mechanism and the strap will be directed into a strap stretch-out housing (21) where it will remain until the strap feeding mechanism (30) again engages a portion of the strap (12) and re-feeds the strap toward the strap application assembly. The weight and position of the strap disposed in the strap stretch-out housing (21) prevents the strap from withdrawing entirely from the strap feeding mechanism (30) thereby ensuring that the strap feeding mechanism (30) will engage and re-feed the strap (12) to the strap application assembly automatically.
