Patent EP-0877635-A2 (EP)
Inventor: KEE KOK-HIONG
IPC: A61M16/04
Filed: 1997-09-10
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une valve régulatrice d'aspiration comprenant un accès principal au dispositif d'aspiration et un accès auxiliaire au dispositif d'aspiration. La valve comprend un obus de valve pouvant être déplacé de façon linéaire entre une première position dans laquelle l'accès principal est fermé et ne laisse pas passer la pression d'aspiration, et une deuxième position dans laquelle l'accès principal est ouvert et laisse passer la pression d'aspiration. La valve peut également pivoter d'une première position dans une troisième position qui rend inopérant son déplacement linéaire et ouvre l'orifice d'accès auxiliaire. Lorsque l'obus de valve se trouve dans la première position, l'air ambiant peut passer au travers de la valve jusque dans la source de la pression d'aspiration et, ce faisant, produire un signal sonore sous la forme d'un 'sifflement' qui indique la présence de la pression d'aspiration à l'intérieur de la valve. Lorsque l'actionneur se trouve dans la deuxième ou la troisième position, le 'sifflement' est interrompu. Cette valve est facile à monter et peut être stérilisée au gaz.

Abstract: On décrit un système de traitement de déchets, notamment un système à creuset de fusion (14) et un système de dépollution de l'air (16). On achemine des fûts de déchets dangereux et/ou radioactifs, via un système d'alimentation en déchets, dans une chambre à plasma (20) dans laquelle on expose ces déchets à une chaleur provenant d'une torche à plasma (22). Une partie des déchets se volatilise et quitte la chambre à plasma (26) pour se diriger dans une seconde chambre de réaction (32) dans laquelle elle est brûlée afin de former un courant de gaz de combustion. Le système de dépollution de l'air (16) traite ce courant de gaz de combustion par refroidissement rapide, filtrage et lavage, afin de produire un courant de gaz propre convenant à une réinsertion dans l'atmosphère. On peut recycler les gaz de dégagement dans le système de traitement des déchets, si nécessaire. Les déchets restant dans la chambre à plasma entrent en fusion et tombent sur des surfaces de traitement en pente, à l'intérieur d'un creuset situé sous la torche à plasma. Le creuset comporte des électrodes de terre conçues pour établir un contact électrique avec les déchets contenus dans le creuset, de façon que ces déchets fondus et tombés dans le creuset puissent être ultérieurement chauffés par la torche à plasma. Lorsque l'on chauffe les déchets en fusion à l'intérieur du creuset, celui-ci est statique, permettant aux déchets en fusion de se séparer en une première fraction métallique présentant une gravité spécifique élevée, et en une seconde fraction de scories présentant une gravité spécifique relativement moindre. Après traitement suffisant des déchets en fusion, on abaisse le creuset à partir de la chambre à plasma, puis on le bascule dans une première direction afin de verser la fraction de scories, et on le bascule ensuite dans une autre direction afin de verser la fraction métallique, à partir d'un déversoir d'écoulement inférieur formé dans le creuset. Ce creuset comporte une seconde électrode de terre placée de manière stratégique près du déversoir, afin que les déchets restent en fusion au moment où ils s'écoulent le long d'un trajet situé sous le déversoir d'écoulement inférieur.

Abstract: A sleeved garment, where the join (15,16) between sleeve (13,14) and body (12) is perpendicular to the shoulder (17,18), is knitted in one piece on a twin bed flat knitting machine. The sleeves (13,14) and body (12) are knitted initially on separate yarn guides as tubular fabrics, with used needles in one bed being opposite empty needles in the other bed. The joins (15,16) are made with a single yarn guide by first knitting a row on both sleeves and body in the first direction of travel of the carriage. The stitches of the back of the right sleeve are transferred to the empty needles on the front needle bed and the stitches of the front of the left sleeve are transferred to the opposing needles on the back needle bed. Both needle beds are moved and the stitches of the right sleeve are moved from the front to the back bed near the body and into empty needles near the sleeve, with an analogous operation for the left sleeve. The needle beds are returned to their starting position and the stitches of the back of the left sleeve and the left edge region of the body are transferred from the front to the back needle bed. Similarly the front of the right sleeve and the right region of the body are transferred from the back to the front needle bed. Several rows of stitches are then knitted on the front bed near the body and both sleeves, after which several rows are knitted on the body only. This is followed by a similar procedure on the back needle bed. The whole cycle is repeated till the join is complete. Similar independent claims describe the stitch pattern for joining sleeves where the join is at an angle to the shoulder and for joining Raglan sleeves.

Abstract: Disclosed is a method for determining the concentration
of an analyte in a sample of body fluid. The
method involves contacting the body fluid sample with
a test strip containing mobile, labeled specific binding
partner for the analyte, through which strip the
test fluid, analyte and any complex formed by interaction
of the analyte and labeled specific binding partner
therefore can flow by capillarity. The strip contains
at least one zone for capture of the labeled
specific binding partner and at least one separate
zone for retention of the analyte/labeled specific
binding partner complex. By determining the magnitude
of the signal from the detectable label in the capture
zone(s) and retention zone(s) and determining a final
response signal by correlating signals using an algorithm
and number of zones chosen in a manner that provides
a final response signal best suited for the particular
assay, the concentration of the analyte can be
determined with greater precision.

Abstract: This invention employs a scheme to allow an input video
signal to undergo encoding, e.g., predictive encoding, DCT
processing, quantization at fixed quantization step size and
variable length encoding to generate first encoded data to
determine (calculate) allocated code quantity every frame or
every GOP on the basis of data quantity every predetermined time,
e.g., every frame or every GOP of the first encoded data and
total quantity of usable data to encode the input video signal
every predetermined time on the basis of the allocated code
quantity to generate second encoded data. Thus, variable rate
encoding such that encoding rate changes every predetermined time
is realized. As a result, even if pictures (frames) of
complicated are successive, there is no possibility that
quantization step size is caused to be large with respect to
these pictures as in the conventional apparatus. Thus, uniform
high picture quality can be obtained through the entirety. 
     Further, since second encoded data obtained in a manner as
described above has variable rate, in the case where such encoded
data is recorded onto picture recording media, limited memory
capacity can be effectively used, and recording time of picture
recording media can be prolonged. In addition, picture data of
high picture quality uniform over the entirety can be reproduced
from the picture recording media.
