Patent EP-1735027-A2 (EP)
Inventor: HUGHES PATRICK
IPC: A61L31/16
Filed: 2005-04-08
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des implants de neurotoxine biodégradables et des procédés pour fabriquer et utiliser de tels implants. Les implants de neurotoxine biodégradables comprennent une neurotoxine, un composant polymère biodégradable, ainsi qu'un composant régulateur d'acidité. Le composant polymère biodégradable permet de commander la libération de la neurotoxine à partir de l'implant lorsque l'implant se trouve dans le corps d'un patient. Le composant régulateur d'acidité permet de maintenir le pH de l'implant dans une gamme souhaitée qui stabilise la neurotoxine lors de la biodégradation de l'implant lorsque celui-ci se trouve dans le corps d'un patient. Dans un mode de réalisation, l'implant comprend une toxine botulique, un polymère biodégradable et soit des monomères à partir desquels un polymère biodégradable est dérivé, soit des oligomères comprenant des unités monomères sensiblement identiques à un monomère à partir duquel un polymère biodégradable est dérivé, ou une combinaison de tels monomères et oligomères. Les oligomères et le polymère biodégradable peuvent être dérivés d'un seul type de monomère. Les implants selon cette invention peuvent être administrés à un patient humain ou animal chez lequel un effet thérapeutique est souhaité pendant des périodes de temps prolongées.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé qui consiste à séparer un catalyseur de métathèse homogène et, éventuellement, un ou de plusieurs produits de dégradation d'un catalyseur de métathèse homogène, d'un mélange réactionnel de métathèse contenant, outre ledit catalyseur de métathèse et le(s)dit(s) produit(s) de dégradation du catalyseur de métathèse, un ou plusieurs produits de métathèse d'oléfine, une ou plusieurs oléfines réactives non transformées et, éventuellement, un solvant. Le procédé consiste à placer le mélange réactionnel de métathèse au contact d'une membrane de nanofiltration, telle qu'une membrane de nanofiltration polyimide, de façon à récupérer un perméat contenant une partie sensible des produits de réaction oléfinique, des oléfines réactives non transformées et éventuellement un solvant; et un retentat contenant le catalyseur de métathèse et, éventuellement, le(s) produit(s) de dégradation du catalyseur de métathèse. Dans un autre aspect, on décrit un procédé de séparation continue d'un catalyseur de métathèse d'un mélange réactionnel de métathèse réalisé, de préférence, dans un réacteur à membrane de nanofiltration.

Abstract: Câble-guide et bras de manipulation pouvant protéger et guider un ou plusieurs câbles conçus pour être fixés et descendus dans un puits de forage au moyen d'une colonne de tubage. Ces câbles peuvent être déplacés en direction de la colonne de tubage et fixés à cette dernière afin de descendre l'ensemble dans le puits. Les coins de retenue en araignée sont mis en place de préférence quand l'élévateur a atteint une position prédéterminée. Les câbles sont déplacés dans un sens pratiquement radial vers l'extérieur depuis la colonne de tubage afin de les protéger. L'araignée n'est bloquée qu'après la retenue des câbles vers l'extérieur. Elle est, de préfrence, dégagée après l'accouplement d'un autre tube à la colonne de tubage et de l'élévateur à cette dernière. Dans le but de faciliter la fixation des câbles à la colonne de tubage, les câbles sont déplacés dans un sens pratiquement radial en direction de la colonne de tubage. Simultanément à la descente des câbles et de la colonne dans le puits, le bras de manipulation peut commencer à se rétracter afin d'éloigner les câbles de l'élévateur qui se rapproche, ainsi que du trajet de déplacement de l'araignée. Le câble-guide, passant de préférence à travers l'araignée, protège les câbles de celle-ci, étant donné qu'il permet au câble de se situer hors du trajet de l'araignée pendant son ouverture et sa fermeture.

Abstract: The present invention provides a contact image capturing structure comprising a substrate having a circuit layer, a detect chip located on the substrate and electrically connected to the circuit layer, a frame located on the substrate and surrounding the detect chip, a cavity is formed between the frame and the detect chip, and a transparent layer located in the frame to cover the detect chip and the circuit layer. The transparent layer above the detect chip is flat and the transparent layer above the cavity is slanted. Hence, the present invention can greatly reduce volume of the chip packaging structure, since the conventional optical devices are no more required. In addition, with the directly contact detection, the detected images can be directly displayed.

Abstract: The sensor (6) for the capacitative measurement of moisture contained within loose material (15) comprises a housing with a non-conducting ceramic baseplate which is directed towards the loose material or over which the material moves. Within the housing is a leakage field capacitor which produced an electric field whose lines pass through the baseplate and into the loose material. The plates of the capacitor are formed from a thin metal layer deposited on the base plate away from the loose material. The two plates are interleaved in stripwise or comb type manner with one plate at the potential of the housing and the housing so dimensioned that the field is spike shaped. Before use the sensor is calibrated over its full temperature range using a sample of known capacitance.

Abstract: A modular segmented structural reinforcement system (10) for use with closed forms or cavities defined with automotive vehicles having a plurality of modular segments (12) designed to be secured within a defined portion (18) of an automotive vehicle applications. An expandable or bonding material (14), such as an epoxy-based reinforcing foam or other sound absorption, damping, vibration reduction, or sealing material is disposed on at least a portion of the outer surface of each of the plurality of segments. Once the system is flexible fitted within the closed form or placed within a selected cavity of an automotive vehicle, the material expands and cures during an automobile assembly operation, bonding the reinforcement system to the segments. As a result, the reinforcement system provides enhanced load distribution over the vehicle frame without adding excessive weight and further serves to reduce noise and vibrational characteristics of the automotive vehicle.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un environnement conçu pour englober plusieurs processeurs audio et vidéo dans un système multifonctionnel idéalement conçu pour une carte commune dans un système hébergé. Les fonctions codec et de transcodage peuvent être autonomes, elles peuvent fonctionner sous contrôle externe, être gérées par un processeur maître commun, ou être exécutées de manière combinée. Les multiples processeurs de signaux média reconfigurables peuvent accepter diverses tâches coordonnées ou indépendantes simultanées de manière à constituer des fonctions réseau à la demande, telles que le transcodage A/V à reconfiguration souple, la diffusion, le stockage vidéo, la création d'une mosaïque vidéo, etc, chacune de ces applications pouvant fonctionner dans divers formations de signaux analogiques et numériques. Le système décrit dans cette invention peut être utilisé pour des services vidéo mis en réseau, tels que des fonctions de MCU de conférence, la diffusion en continu d'enregistrement de transcodage et la lecture d'une mémoire vidéo, l'enregistrement d'appel, l'enregistrement de conférence, la réponse vidéo (lecture de message d'accueil, l'enregistrement de message), et d'autres fonctions. Cette architecture permet un développement harmonieux, car elle peut accepter un grand nombre de tâches d'exécution simultanée au fur et à mesure que les algorithmes des logiciels deviennent de plus en plus efficaces et que les futurs processeurs reconfigurables deviennent de plus en plus puissant, ce qui permet d'obtenir une importante continuité architecturale.
