Abstract: This invention aims to enable sending and receiving of a security mail to be ensured at a high security level using a relatively simple series of procedures. Respective users (A, B, ...) on-line register personal information for authentication peculiar to the respective users at a key center which manages, in turn, the personal information transmitted to the key center. When a message is transmitted from the user A to the user B, the user A on-line transmits a communication key to the key center. The key center KC on-line transmits this encrypted communication key addressed to the user B to the user B. Then the user A on-line transmits the message encrypted on the basis of the communication key directly to the user B. The user B decodes the encrypted messaged received from the user A using the communication key having been delivered from the key center KC. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A multistage spur-type gearing for small and miniature electric motors having a gearing housing and at least two gear shafts or axles held in the gearing housing, with spur gears of different diameters arranged on the gear shafts or axles. To achieve an extremely small construction at maximum reduction ratios in comparison with conventional spur-type gearings, at least two spur gears are fixedly connected to one another and combined to form a dual gear set, with the dual gear set rotatably supported on a gear axle made from a hard material, such as ceramics. At least one of the gear shafts should fixedly be held as a gear axle in the housing. An input shaft opening through which a motor shaft projects into the gearings is arranged to be substantially coaxial to the center axis of the gearing housing with which the gear shafts also extend in parallel and at some distance. Such a gearing makes it possible to arrange several reduction stages on one gear axle. Preferably, only two gear shafts or axles are used. Thus, in constructional terms, the present gearing is the smallest one among all conceivable variants of the gearing.

Abstract: A supplementary lighting device with a replaceable electroluminescent light element is disclosed. A control system is provided to boost the light intensity of the electroluminescent light element. A light sensor is provided which detects light emitted from the electroluminescent lighting element and inputs this information to the control system. The control system automatically adjusts the intensity of the electroluminescent lighting element according to a pre-set value and the information from the light sensor. This allows for the electroluminescent lighting element to maintain a constant output despite the ageing of the electroluminescent lighting element. The pre-set value for the intensity of the electroluminescent lighting element can be adjusted by a user controlled dimmer. The dimmer varies the amount of light detected by the light sensor in order to increase or decrease the power provided by the control system to the electroluminescent lighting element.

Abstract: A prosthetic heart valve includes an orifice ring adapted to carry blood therethrough. An annular recess is formed in an outer surface of the orifice ring and has first and second axially spaced walls. A sewing cuff is adapted to be coupled to a native tissue annulus of a heart and includes an inner annular cuff portion adapted to conform to the first and second recess walls in the orifice ring. A cuff retaining ring extends around the inner annular fabric portion such that the inner annular cuff portion is positioned between the cuff retaining ring and the annular recess. The cuff retaining ring is further adapted to exert a substantially axially directed force directed against the annular cuff portion and first and second axially spaced walls of the annular recess, which is substantially greater than a radial force directed substantially inwardly by the cuff retaining ring against an annulus of the recess located between the first and second walls, whereby a controllable torque to rotate the cuff relative to the orifice ring is developed substantially due to friction between the first and second recess walls cuff portion and the annular recess.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé de synchronisation cardiaque, destiné à être utilisé dans un appareil d'imagerie. Ce procédé consiste à contrôler le rythme cardiaque d'un patient et à déterminer un temps de cycle cardiaque pour ce patient. Une phase cardiaque souhaitée, présentant un intérêt, est sélectionnée et un retard à partir d'un point de référence dans le cycle cardiaque est déterminé. Ce retard est une fonction de la phase cardiaque sélectionnée et du temps de cycle cardiaque. Finalement, la phase cardiaque sélectionnée est localisée dans le cycle cardiaque, par utilisation du retard. Ce procédé de synchronisation cardiaque permet de compenser les changements non uniformes dans le cycle cardiaque du patient, qui correspondent à une distribution non uniforme des phases cardiaques dans le cycle cardiaque du patient.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for controlling a converter of electronic power supply energy embodied for example as a boost converter or as a boost converter with a power factor correction (PFC) or being used as a DC to DC converter that is running in a discontinuous mode and which is using an equation to calculate the point of time of the zero current state of the storage inductor based on the ON time of the shunt switch and the voltages at the source and the load side. This method achieves a maximum power transfer by recharging of the storage inductor right after the zero current state is reached. The accuracy of the voltage measurement is increased by calibration of the source and load voltage dividers. Minimizing distortion and harmonics is achieved by a fine adjustment of the energy transfer through fine-tuning of the pulse width of the switch overcoming the limitations of discrete time steps in clocked digital systems by toggling between neighboring ON time values of the switch. <IMAGE>
