Abstract: Disclosed is a real time cerebral diagnostic apparatus and method for quantitatively evaluating, in a noninvasive manner, cerebral phenomena such as the depth and adequacy of anesthesia pain responses during surgical stress, acute cerebral ischemia, level of consciousness, degree of intoxication and ongoing normal and abnormal cognitive processes. A suitable electrode and amplifier system is used to obtain high resolution biopotentials from the regions of interest. Surface electroencephalographic (EEG) signals are filtered to allow the acquisition of frequencies between 2 and 500 Hz, then digitized and transmitted over a high speed serial line to a host computer where a 32 second long signal is divided into 128 consecutive 0.25 second intervals. Digital EEG data from unipolar leads is normalized and the dynamic phase and density relations within the signal are then characterized by estimating the third-order autocorrelation function or autobispectrum using either a frequency domain, or parametric approach. Paired EEG data from corresponding left and right hemisphere leads is used to characterize the dynamic phase and density relations between hemispheres by estimating the third order crosscorrelation function or crossbispectrum using either frequency domain or parametric techniques. Under certain specific filtering circumstances the power spectrum and crosspower spectrum are also computed. A reference clinical database is used to identify frequency pairs most sensitive to particular interventions or diagnostic states of interest. The values at these frequency pairs are then extracted from the patient's autobicoherence, autobispectral density, autobiphase, crossbicoherence, crossbispectral density, and crossbiphase arrays. The ensemble of values for the particular diagnostic determination is used to compute an index which serves as the diagnostic criterion by which the patient's state is judged. Any diagnostic index can be continuously displayed on a graphics terminal for real-time diagnostic monitoring or can be sent to a hard copy device to generate reports for the medical record.

Abstract: Mail handling or processing systems are disclosed wherein the entire lot or batch of mail pieces is loaded into a bin for processing. Each mail piece is individually removed by an operator while the computer monitors the weight of the bin and simultaneously produces serial numbers for affixing to each mail piece. In an alternative embodiment a postage meter provides postage imprinting and labelling for each mail piece removed. By monitoring the tare weight difference of the bin prior to and after removal of each mail piece, the mail piece weight is determined from the difference between the two tare weights. The weight of each mail piece is required in order to determine postage cost or mail charges for each mail piece. After all pieces of mail are removed from the bin, an operator can optionally key the system to produce a postal service form complying with manifest mailing requirements. The computer also produces a manifest including serial numbers and mail charges related to each serial number marked mail piece and a manifest summary. In an alternate embodiment, the bin is loaded one by one with each mail piece while a computer simultaneously monitors the weight of the bin as each mail piece is added, serial numbers are produced for affixing to each mail piece, and the computer links each serial number with a weight deviation thereby calculating mail charges for each mail piece and storing the information for reproduction in summary form in a mailing manifest.

Abstract: The invention relates to a process for isolating and/or separating solid and/or liquid particles (disperse phase) from gaseous and/or liquid media (continuous phase) and for separating mixed gases (gas-gas separation) and/or mixed liquids (liquid-liquid separation) and for sifting and/or classifying using a cyclone separator having a dip pipe 35. To reduce the flow losses in the introduction of spin, the contact zone between the main flow and the vortex is adjusted to the fixed cylinder casing boundary in such a manner that the tangential entry momentum into the bottom layer flow is increased by reducing the secondarily circulating momentum fraction of the bottom layer flow in the cyclone chamber. To reduce the momentum mixing losses by dissipative pressure loss in the flow in the main channel, the bottom layer flow is designed to be rotationally symmetric at constant or approximately constant mean main flow velocity. The clean gas flow is conducted through dip pipes 35, having cross-sectional areas enlarging towards the outlet, in such a manner that in the zones of the highest flow velocity, the flow is only loaded by weak meridional flow deflections. The clean gas flow is conducted on the outer wall of the dip pipes with velocity increasing towards the intake sections. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Medium consistency (e.g. about 6-15%) paper pulp (from 38) is effectively bleached with ozone (from 16) in a carrier gas (typically oxygen) by effecting efficient separation of carrier gas from the pulp after reaction with the ozone, and introducing the ozone into the pulp at a pressure of about 10-13 bar. Ozone in oxygen and medium consistency paper pulp are fed to a fluidizing mixer (12); the intimate uniform mixture produced is then passed upwardly in a reaction vessel (17) until about 99% of the ozone has been consumed, and then separation of gas from the pulp is initiated by moving the pulp mixture into a generally horizontal tube (21) leading to a gas zone in a large diameter retention vessel (22). A pressurized gas pad (26) is maintained at and above the introduction of the pulp into the retention vessel, while the level (29) of pulp in the retention vessel is maintained below the point of introduction. The pulp may be withdrawn from the retention vessel with a fluidizing degassing pump (32), and the pressurized gas removed from the top of the vessel (through 35) may be fed to an apparatus (61) using oxygen gas under pressure. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: Linvention se rapporte à un récipient pouvant être incliné possédant un compartiment supplémentaire qui se remplit alors que le compartiment principal se vide pour assurer la distribution du contenu. Le problème soulevé par les compartiments supplémentaires utilisés dans lesdits récipients est que le contenu du compartiment supplémentaire entre souvent en contact avec le compartiment principal lors de la distribution, réduisant ainsi l'exactitude de dosage. Afin de résoudre ce problème, un récipient est compartimenté avec une partie supérieure (13) divisée en un passage de distribution (22) et un compartiment de dosage (20) par une paroi verticale (18) et avec une partie inférieure (14b, 15) formant un compartiment collecteur (21) non divisé. Le compartiment de dosage (20) possède un orifice d'entrée à espacement axial (27) et un orifice d'évent (28). Le compartiment de dosage (20) est séparé partiellement des compartiments collecteurs (21) par une chicane (25) formant saillie sur la paroi verticale (18). Cette chicane (25) permet au récipient distributeur de fonctionner avec exactitude et en diminue le volume et la longueur nécessaires.

Abstract: The automatic adaptation of parameters of the controller (13) takes place in that estimated values (y'[k], (y''[k], y'''[k]) of the first three time derivations of the actual value, estimated values (d[k], T[k]) of a damping factor and of a time constant of a control loop (19), estimated values ( PHI [k]) of a relative approximation error, values (G[k]) of a controller gain factor and, in variants of the embodiment, values (Tn[k], Tv[k]) of an integral action time and a derivative action time of the control loop (19) are successively determined in function blocks (1 to 3, 5 to 7) starting with discrete values (y[k]) of an actual value of a controlled variable. The control loop consists of a subtraction element (12), the controller (13) and a controlled system (14). The estimated values (d[k]) of the damping factor are compared with values (dref[k]) of a set point in a further subtraction element (10). The determination of certain values (G[k], Tn[k], Tv[k]) is enabled by three enable function blocks (4, 8 and 9) or inhibited. This method has the advantage that estimated values are continuously determined from successive measured values and that the programming effort of a microcomputer used is low. <IMAGE>
