Patent EP-1262701-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BEUKEN LEOPOLD MARIA GERARDUS
IPC: F16L9/00
Filed: 2002-05-21
Abstract: The invention relates to a pipe (1) suitable for
transporting at least two different fluids, which pipe (1) is
provided with at least one mark (2a) extending in the longitudinal
direction of the pipe (1), which functions to indicate the nature
of the fluid for the transport of which the pipe (1) is arranged,
said pipe (1) being provided at least with a second mark (2b)
extending in the longitudinal direction of the pipe (1), which
functions to indicate a second fluid for the transport of
which the pipe (1) is suitable. 
     This aspect leads to a simplification as regards
logistics; if a particular pipe quality can be used for the
transport of drinking water and gas, for example, only one
type of pipe needs to be kept in stock. Upon use of the pipe (1),
one of the two marks (2a,2b) may be removed or be moved to the rear
side, making it "inactive", as it were. This can be achieved,
for example, by positioning the pipe (1) with the applicable mark (2a,2b)
on the front side, i.e. the side from which the pipe (1) is
approached, so that the mark (2a,2b) in question will be the first
mark that is detected when the pipe (1) is approached at a later
point in time.

Abstract: An urethral probe device for treatment of prostate hyperplasia
comprises an elongated tube (12) extending between a distal end (12c)
and a proximal end (12a) to be inserted into the urethra towards the
prostate. A catheter probe (11) having an elongated body with a
circumferential surface, a distal end (11c) and a proximal end (11a) is
movably accomodated within the urethral probe. The elongated body has a
longitudinal bore (11b) extending from the distal end towards an outlet
opening (11d) in the circumferential surface near the proximal end. A
catheter tube (13) having a distal end and a proximal sharp end (13a) is
inserted with its sharp end through the longitudinal bore, the outlet
opening and through the urethral wall into the prostate. The catheter
tube includes means for delivering a certain pre-planned amount of
radiation energy to at least one location within the prostate for
effecting radiation treatment. The urethral probe allows a quick and
more accurate positioning of the catheter probe and the catheter tube
relative to the prostate without discomforting the patient.

Abstract: The switch includes a microswitch switching mechanism
(1) having a biassed plunger (11). The body of the
switching mechanism is covered by a lid (2) having a user-operated
slider (3) mounted thereon. Movement of the slider
(3) is confined to a track (7) formed in the lid (2). A cam
surface (10) is provided on a part of the slider (3) which
is engageable with the plunger (11) of the switching
mechanism. The "over-centre" profile of the cam surface
(10) is such that movement of the slider in one direction
causes the plunger (11) to be depressed and then released.
Inadvertent operation of the switch is therefore avoided
due to the cam profile (10).

Abstract: An apparatus and method for the biological
removal of phosphorus, in which raw water is
introduced into the anaerobic tank 11, together with
returned sludge from the sludge return pipe 14. Some
of the water in the anaerobic tank 11 is sent to the
solid/liquid separating device 16 and the rest is sent
to the aerobic tank 12. Some of the water which
contains the released phosphorus in the anaerobic tank
11 is sent via the pipe 15 to the second solid/liquid
separating device 16, and subjected to a solid/liquid
separation treatment. The separated water fraction is
sent to the phosphorus-removing apparatus 17 and the
phosphorus is removed. Some of the solid fraction is
introduced into the anaerobic tank 11. The remainder
is sent from the pipe 19 to the solubilizing tank 20
and subjected to a solubilizing treatment, and then it
is returned to the anaerobic tank 11.

Abstract: A contact (24) and a conductor plate (26;27) are held in the
housing (21) so that portions of the contact (24) except its end portion
(24a) and the plate (26;27) can be put in a parallel relation to each other.
Also, a contact (34) is held in the housing (31) so that when connectors
(2,3) are fitted to each other, portions of the contact (34) except its end
portion (34a) and the plate (26;27) can be put in a parallel relation with
each other. Further, the end portions (24a,34a) are so shaped that the
distance between the signal line formed by the contacts (24,34) and the
plate (26;27) can be kept substantially uniform. This can provide a
stabilized impedance of the signal line formed by the contacts being
contacted with each other.

Abstract: The microelectronic circuit delivers a pulse at the circuit output (151) as a function of two input signals (13,14), a command signal (13) and a control signal (14), that is the ENABLE signal. The circuit comprises two memory cells (11,12) and a delay module (15) connected in series. Each memory cell comprises the reset means controlled by the two signals. The two memory cells (11,12) are identical and connected in phase opposition by use of an inverter. The control signal (14) allows to position the system into a predetermined configuration, and the generation of ouput pulse can be halted as a function of two inputs signals (13,14). The reset of the first memory cell (11) is effected by the command signal (13), and the reset of the second memory cell (12) is by the control signal (14). The length of the calibrated pulse at the output (151) depends on the delay module (15) which produces a delay in the rising front of the signal at the output (123) of the second memory cell (12).  Each memory cell (11,12) contains an input through a transfer gate of type n-MOS/p-MOS, two looped inverters, a third inverter feeding the output, and the reset means comprising an n-MOS transistor. The delay module (15) contains a delay-inverter, a NAND gate and an inverter, and the module is activated by the rising front of the output signal of the second memory cell. A microelectronic component comprises at least one microelectronic circuit for the pulse generation. At least one of the circuits controls the access in reading and/or writing of a memory store.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un matelas isolant à rebords à clouer comprenant un support sensiblement plat de matière flexible et une couche de laine minérale qui adhère au support. Le support qui s'étend d'un côté ou des deux côtés de la couche de laine minérale, comporte une couche de feuille d'aluminium ainsi qu'une couche de plastique de renforcement. Le plastique est une matière moins inflammable que le papier. La valeur calorique d'une couche plastique est, de façon surprenante, inférieure à celle d'une couche papier de même résistance. La plus grande résistance du plastique est ici déterminante, cela permet d'utiliser une couche de plastique plus mince.

Abstract: The invention can be used for telecommunications, measuring and other devices in
order to produce stable superhigh frequency signals. An IMPATT diode 4 operating in
the cascade break-down mode and having a sharp nonlinearity transforms an input
signal in such a way that ultraharmonics which multiple in respect to the frequency of
an input signal ω 0  occur in a frequency spectrum. An output stage of a multiplier is
used in order to separate an output nω 0  frequency and to suppress adjacent
frequencies. In order to tune the output stage to the nω 0  frequency, a tuning plug 8
and short-circuiting pistons 13 are used. The tuning plug 8 is arranged above an
upper electrod of the IMPATT diode 4 (inside the axis of the diode). The tuning plugs
13 make it possible to tune resonance capacitance to the nω 0  frequency and remove
energy towards the output part of a T-bend in which a wave guide pass-band filter 15
is disposed. Said filter 15 is embodied in the form of sections of a waveguide 14 on
whose E-plane a thin metallic diaphragm is arranged, said diaphragm being provided
with windows 16 disposed along the axis of the waveguide. The inventive multiplier
ensures high converting efficiency.
