Patent CA-2121346-A1 (CA)
Title: Automatic sensitivity adjust for cardiac pacemakers
Inventor: NICHOLS LUCY M
IPC: A61N1/365
Filed: 1992-06-29
Abstract: A pacemaker capable of automatically adjusting the sensitivity of its sense amplifier to electrical cardiac signals is disclosed.  In one embodiment, a pacemaker having a pressure sensor disposed on the distal end of its pacing/sensing lead counts the number of pressure events and electrical events which occur during an autosensitivity timing period. If the number of electrical events exceeds the number of pressure events by more than a predetermined margin, the sense amplifier's sensitivity threshold is decreased.  If the number of electrical events does not exceed the number of pressure events by more than the predetermined margin, the sense amplifier's sensitivity threshold is increased. In another embodiment, the pacemaker maintains a running average of the peak voltages of sensed electrical events over a predetermined history period. Periodically, the pacemaker computes the ratio of the running average of peak voltages to a preprogrammed sense margin value, and adjusts the sensitivity threshold of the sense amplifier according to this computation. By basing the adjustment of the sense amplifier's sensitivity threshold on a long-term average of peak sense values, the effects of cycle-to-cycle variation in sensed values are minimized. In still another embodiment of the invention, a pressure sensor alone is employed to detect natural cardiac events.

Title: Truck or trailer-mounted bale carrier with pickup
Inventor: REMPEL WILLIAM
IPC: B60P1/64
Filed: 1994-06-22
Abstract: A bale carrier has a base with two bale tracks for carrying rows of bales side by side. A bale pickup loads bales on the adjacent track and a bale transfer mechanism transfers bales from one track to the other. The base has a substantially unobstructed bottom so that the carrier can be mounted on a truck or trailer with minimal modification of the vehicle, and using a standard carrier construction. The bale pickup operating mechanism includes a linkage projecting upwardly from the pickup and an hydraulic cylinder extending across the front of the base, above the base, for pulling the linkage across thebase. The pickup can deposit a third bale on top of two bales arranged side by side in the two tracks, at the receiving station. The pickup preferably will collapse to a transport position above the base. Two side wings extend along the sides of the base for retaining bales on the bale carrier and are mounted onthe base for movement to a transport position projecting upwardly from the side base. In the transport position the carrier meets the legal width requirements for highway transport. The carrier can be equipped with a square bale pickup for loading large square bales.
