Title: Active compression/decompression cardiac assist/support device and method
Inventor: SCHOCK ROBERT B
IPC: A61F5/04
Filed: 1994-03-11
Abstract: An active compression/decompression CPR device capable of providing both complete cardiopulmonary support and cardiopulmonary assistance includes two or more thoracic compressors, preferably inflatable bladders, positioned so that the chest can first be flattened and compressed, increasing the pressure in the chest, and then circularized and decompressed, decreasing the pressure in the chest. When inflatable bladders are used, they can be surrounded with a rigidifying vest which resists outward bladder expansion. Compression and decompression can be performed along with abdominal compression, and the device is capable of shifting between support and assist modes when the patient's condition so requires. Also described is a method of compressing and then decompressing a patient's thorax by applying anterior and/or posterior pressure to the thorax, so as to compress the thorax and increase pressure therein, relieving that pressure, and then applying lateral pressure to the thorax to decompress and relieve pressure in the thorax, and then relieving the lateral pressure.
Patent AU-6410701-A (AU)
Title: Call handling device for connecting a wireless communications device to a communications network
Inventor: AUSTIN PAUL
IPC: H04L12/54
Filed: 2001-06-13
Abstract: The present invention provides a call handling device for connecting a wireless communications device to a communications network and allows call control features to be implemented. This is achieved by transferring control information indicative the call control features available to the user via a wireless connection. The call control features selected by a user are then implemented by the call handling device, making the call control features available to the user. The present invention also allows control information to be sent to alternative communications devices. This is useful for example when a user assistant is using a portable handset or the like to make a telephone call. In this case with the key pad located on the handset it is typically difficult to push buttons as well as speak on the phone simultaneously. The present invention overcomes this by having the control information sent directly to a different device such as a PDA so that it can be presented to the user and then responded to without disturbing the phonecall.

Patent AU-6795394-A (AU)
Title: Centrifugal spinning process and device
Inventor: KONIG REINHARD
IPC: D01H7/74
Filed: 1994-05-04
Abstract: A centrifugal pot spinning process for spinning yarn of classical character is provided in which either in one stage a fully twisted yarn or in a first stage a partially twisted yarn is spun in a centrifuge (6) and removed from it and, in the case of the partially twisted yarn, the remaining twist is imparted to the yarn in a second stage upon removal while being wound up. A centrifuge (6), a drawing frame (1), a piecing mechanism (2), and a traversing thread guide tube (4) are used. The centrifuge (6) rotates in a space (7) under reduced pressure (pu). Normal air pressure (pn) prevails inside the centrifuge (6) and spinning is carried out under normal air pressure (pn) inside the centrifuge. The reduced pressure (pu) is adjusted in such a way that, during rotation of the centrifuge (6), essentially only the bearing friction of the centrifuge still occurs but the air friction of the outer wall of the centrifuge (6, 35, 45, 53) against the housing (5') is largely suppressed. A vacuum centrifuge (5) is positioned so as to pivot inside the housing (5'). The space (7) between the centrifuge (6) and the housing (5') can be placed under variable reduced pressure (pu). The reduced pressure is adjustable in such a way that, during rotation, essentially only the bearing friction of the centrifuge still occurs but the air friction of the outer wall of the centrifuge is largely suppressed.
Patent AU-6923696-A (AU)
Title: An image scanner
Inventor: HEGER ANDERS
IPC: H04N1/08
Filed: 1996-09-12
Abstract: The present invention relates to handling of a sheet formed original to be scanned in an image scanner. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the original is scanned by a trilinear CCD array, i.e. the original is scanned line by line, three lines at the time, one line for each color. Thus, at a specific time "only" the area of the original that is scanned by the trilinear CCD array at that time has to be positioned in focus of the imaging means of the image scanner while the remaining part of the original may be positioned anywhere and may adopt any suitable form. Thus, there is no need for all parts of the original to be kept flat and planar as required in known flat bed scanners. According to the present invention, the original is kept flat and straight along a line to be scanned by imparting a substantially cylindrical shape, such as a circular cylindrical shape, to at least part of the original. The original is scanned along lines that are substantially parallel to the generatrix of the cylindrical part of the original. Thus, the fact that all parts of the original are not scanned simultaneously is exploited to simplify the positioning of the original in the image scanner compared to known methods and image scanners.  <IMAGE>
