Title: Sedimentation basin for sewage treatment plants
Inventor: SCHLEDERER SWANTJE MIGNON
IPC: B01D21/24
Filed: 2008-08-21
Granted: 2016-01-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a sedimentation basin (2) for sewage treatment plants (1) for separating materials which can settle due to the action of gravity, such as sand, rocks or broken glass, from waste water (3) introduced in the inlet region of the sewage treatment plant (1). An efficient and compact design for the sedimentation basin (2) is achieved by way of flow guide walls (20) which present a meander-shaped curved path, a plurality thereof being disposed vertically adjacent to each other and parallel to the main flow direction (21) of the sedimentation basin (2). The slowing of the flow caused in this manner results in improved sedimentation, while requiring less space.

Abstract: Des procédés pour traiter des arythmies auriculaires peuvent comprendre la configuration d'un dispositif implantable de traitement des arythmies. Un dispositif peut être configuré après l'implantation quand le patient est pleinement conscient et après que l'effet de tout médicament pour le soulagement de la douleur a disparu. Le dispositif sert à appliquer une thérapie à champ lointain avec déblocage en phase au patient en réponse à la détection d'une arythmie par une configuration de champ lointain d'électrodes. Une indication d'une sensation de douleur du patient et de l'efficacité du traitement en réponse à la thérapie peut alors être reçue. En réponse, au moins un paramètre parmi un ensemble de paramètres de thérapie est réglé et les étapes sont répétées jusqu'à ce qu'il soit déterminé qu'un traitement efficace est obtenu avec une sensation de douleur qui est tolérable pour le patient. Le dispositif est ensuite programmé pour traiter automatiquement les arythmies détectées chez le patient avec l'ensemble déterminé de paramètres de thérapie.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device (3) for damping and scattering hydrosound and wave motions in a liquid, particularly water (8), by means of an envelope body (1) enclosing a gas. The invention in this case is based on the object of creating a device (3) by means of which the transmission and propagation of sound and wave motions in water (8) are reduced, the device (3) being such that it can be used, in a fault-free and controllable manner, both in motionless waters and in strong currents and, irrespective of the water depth, has a low energy requirement and, insofar as possible, gives rise to no operating costs, and large-scale application is also possible at low cost. This object is achieved by means of a device (3) that has a plurality of envelope bodies (1), each enclosing gas, and has a carrier element (2) and a mass body (10), the envelope bodies (1) being arranged at a distance from one another on the carrier element (2). The gas enclosed by the envelope body (1) is prevented by the mass body (10) from rising up in the water (8), as a result of which the gas volumes are maintained and do not have to be continuously renewed. There is no need for a compressed air supply, which, particularly in the offshore domain and in deep water, is demanding of resources. It is thereby possible for the gas to be retained in bubble form, irrespective of the environmental conditions prevailing in the water, such as current or water pressure. It is not possible for the gas that is enclosed in the envelope body (1) to fuse with other gas bubbles or to divide.

Chaque événement peut représenter la détection d'une condition spécifique qui commence à un moment spécifique et qui continue pendant une durée spécifique. Chaque règle peut également attribuer et mettre à jour de manière dynamique un score pour chaque événement qui indique son niveau d'importance et de persistance. Une fois que les données brutes ont été analysées et que des événements qui représentent des conditions de base ont été créés, un nouvel ensemble de règles peut analyser lesdits événements, en plus des données brutes, ou à la place de celles-ci.
