Title: Electronic pulse detection apparatus and electronic pulse detection chip
Inventor: YUMII TAKAYOSHI
IPC: H04N5/374
Filed: 2002-09-26
Granted: 2011-04-19
Abstract: An electronic pulse detection apparatus includes an MCP having a plurality of capillaries arranged in a matrix for increasing the number of electrons and an electronic pulse read out chip (30) arranged at the output side of this MCP. The electronic pulse detection chip (30) has anodes (32) and detection transistors (34) arranged to correspond to capillaries. An electron pulse comes into the anode (32) from the MCP. Each of the detection transistors (34) has a drain connected to a corresponding anode. The detection transistors (34) have gates of each line connected to one another so as to be turned on/off by line and sources of each row connected to a switch circuit (80) and are connected via the switch circuit (80) to a current/voltage conversion resistance RL. The current/voltage conversion resistance RL converts into voltage the current flowing when an electronic pulse comes into the anode (32), and inputs the voltage to an operational amplifier (90). Thus, it is possible to detect weak light and radioactive rays two-dimensionally.

Abstract: A wearable or portable intermittently operable hydration system (10) includes a purification module (22) that contains one or more solid state UV devices that are positioned in the path of hydrating fluid, or water, flow through the hydration system to a mouthpiece (18) or other orifice. The purification module (22) provides a path for the fluid past one or more solid state UV devices, such as UV LEDs, that produce UV radiation in a germicidal range. When the fluid is flowing past the UV LEDs, the LEDs are turned on to provide sufficient UV radiation to purify the water. The UV LEDs are instant on devices with essentially no ramp-up required, and a sensor (20) or other signaling means in the flow path controls the turning on of the UV LEDs whenever the user initiates the fluid flow. The fluid flow path may run from a bladder (12) in a backpack (19) worn by the user, a sports bottle worn by or carried by the user or may be through a water filtration system that a user operates via a pump. The power for the purification module may come from batteries, solar cells, fuel cells, power converted from pumping or winding action or any combination thereof. Further, UV LEDs may be included in the walls of the container as additional or alternative sources of UV radiation. The UV LEDs in the walls of the container may then be turned on when sufficient energy is available, as a precaution against, for example, a change in environmental conditions.

Abstract: Pour satisfaire la nécessité de disposer d'un appareil et d'un procédé de transfert d'un réseau cellulaire sans fil à un réseau non cellulaire sans fil (WLAN par exemple), la présente demande décrit une passerelle d'accès (214) et une station mobile bi-mode (201) permettant de tels transferts. Des stations mobiles MS bi-mode peuvent déterminer à quel moment un transfert vers un réseau non cellulaire est préféré et demander une transmission (302) en provenance du réseau non cellulaire. La passerelle d'accès fournit des informations à la MS (304) de manière qu'elle peut déclencher un transfert à travers le réseau cellulaire de prise en charge. Le déclenchement des transferts de cette manière permet aux réseaux cellulaires de traiter des transferts vers des réseaux non cellulaires essentiellement de la même manière qu'ils traitent aujourd'hui des transferts inter-MSC, c'est-à-dire déclenchés par la source.
