Inventor: ITO MASATO
IPC: G01B11/14
Filed: 2002-01-30
Abstract: A method for manufacturing a spark plug, which includes photographing a
spark gap as to detect the edges of a center and ground electrode and performing a
predetermined treatment on the basis of image information obtained from the
photographing step. Also disclosed is an apparatus for carrying out the method. In
performing the photographing step, an illumination device 200 is disposed opposite a
tip portion of a spark plug, in which a spark gap is to be formed, such that
illumination rays pass through the spark gap. A camera 4, which is disposed
opposite the illumination device 200 with respect to the tip portion of the spark plug,
photographs the spark gap formed between a center electrode W 1  and a ground
electrode W 2 . In relation to the photographing step, light shields 203 are disposed
between a light source 201 of the illumination device (illumination means) 200 and
the tip portion of the spark plug to block illumination rays directed toward the tip
portion of the spark plug from the light source 201 but which diverge from the spark
gap.

Inventor: SOKOLOV STEPHAN
IPC: G06F9/40
Filed: 2002-10-24
Abstract: Techniques for handling exceptions raised during the execution of
Java computer programs are disclosed. The techniques can be used by a
Java virtual machine to efficiently handle exceptions. A method descriptor
is implemented in a Java method frame which is stored in the Java
execution stack. The method descriptor provides one or more references to
exception handlers associated with the Java method. The references can
be used to quickly identify and invoke the appropriate exception handler.
This can be achieved without having to use a native language execution
stack. As a result, the overhead associated with several returns from native
functions (routines or methods) can be avoided since the information
needed to invoke the appropriate exception handler can be obtained
efficiently from the Java execution stack. Accordingly, the performance of
Java virtual machines, especially those operating with limited resources,
can be significantly enhanced.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil permettant de minimiser l'attente dans des trajets de traitement de signaux numériques. A titre d'exemple, il peut s'agir d'un dispositif de suppression du bruit actif. Le système comprend une boucle de rétroaction fermée numérique présentant un trajet vers l'avant et un trajet de rétroaction. Le premier trajet comprend un filtre de correction, un convertisseur numérique-analogique ainsi qu'un transducteur de sortie. Quant au trajet de rétroaction, il comprend un transducteur d'entrée, un modulateur de rétroaction delta-sigma ainsi qu'un convertisseur de rétroaction échantillonnage-débit. Un signal d'entrée subit un traitement et est transformé en un signal d'entrée numérique traité ayant un débit d'échantillonnage intermédiaire présélectionné. Un signal de sortie analogique, qui suit le trajet de rétroaction, subit un traitement et est transformé en un signal de rétroaction numérique dont le débit d'échantillonnage intermédiaire présélectionné est pratiquement le même. Le signal d'entrée numérique traité et le signal de rétroaction numérique sont combinés et traités dans le trajet vers l'avant afin d'obtenir un signal anti-perturbation qui est combiné à un signal de perturbation afin de former le signal de sortie analogique.

Filed: 2002-07-25
Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif temporaire permettant de capturer et d'enlever une matière embolique au cours d'interventions traditionnelles, telles qu'une angioplastie ou un déploiement de stent. Un élément de capture tubulaire, à fermeture automatique peut constituer soit un filtre soit un système d'occlusion, et on peut le monter à proximité de l'extrémité distale d'un fil-guide. Ce fil-guide peut permettre de guider un cathéter thérapeutique. Le déplacement relatif des extrémités de l'élément de capture provoque la modification de l'élément de capture qui passe d'une position fermée à une position déployée qui provoque la dilatation du vaisseau à traiter. Un dispositif de blocage fixé sur le fil-guide retient temporairement ledit élément de capture à sa position déployée. Une première tige creuse glisse sur le fil-guide de manière à déployer l'élément de capture et à mettre en contact l'extrémité proximale dudit élément avec le dispositif de verrouillage. Une seconde tige creuse glisse sur le fil-guide pour libérer le dispositif de verrouillage et fermer l'élément de capture.
