Title: Multi-purpose multi-parameter cardiac catheter
Inventor: GALLUP DAVID A
IPC: A61B5/145
Filed: 1993-07-14
Granted: 1997-05-01
Abstract: A multi-lumen, multi-purpose cardiac catheter which incorporates optical filaments and an optical coupler for use with external apparatus for determining the oxygen concentration in the blood of a patient under critical care conditions, as well as incorporating therein a thermal element useable with a second external apparatus for measurement of continuous cardiac output. A thermal plug provides an interface between a temperature control apparatus and the thermal element to simply and accurately monitor and control the temperature of the thermal element. A temperature monitoring circuit in the thermal plug facilitates temperature measurement at the thermal element. The catheter also includes a thermistor and at least one injectate port for enabling the user to also conduct thermal dilution readings and obtain intermittent measurements of cardiac output. The combination of a thermal dilution catheter with a SV02 catheter and a continuous cardiac output catheter gives the multi-purpose catheter above described substantial versatility as well as providing the user with a versatile cardiac catheter device which enables him to conduct multiple evaluations of disparate blood-related parameters which require the use of separate apparatus. Simply by switching from one external apparatus to the other, the user can obtain readings for different blood-related parameters useful in the treatment of the cardiac patient.

Title: Method of film crease elimination and patch bag without crease within lay-flat bag side
Inventor: DEPOORTER LARRY W
IPC: B65D33/02
Filed: 1998-03-03
Granted: 2002-07-04
Abstract: A process for removing creases from a film eliminates a problem in the quality of the heat seal for a patch bag (20) having at least a segment of one or more bag side edges (or the bag bottom edge)covered by one or more patches (24,26). The film creases are removed by inflating the film tubing which is later converted to a bag, heating regions containing the creases with a heating means to a temperature which, in combination with the pressure within the inflated tubing, causes the creases to relax. The heated crease-containing regions are then cooled and the inflated tubing is deflated and wound up in a new configuration in which at least one patch covers at least one side edge or the bottom edge. <IMAGE>

Title: Cold sterilant with extended active life
Inventor: KRALOVIC RAYMOND C
IPC: A01N37/40
Filed: 1994-07-12
Granted: 1997-09-04
Abstract: Sodium perborate is mixed with a mixture, preferably a 1:1 mixture, of a rapid acetylating agent, e.g. TAED, and a slow acetylating agent, e.g. acetylsalicylic acid, in water to form a biocidally effective peracetic acid solution. When sodium perborate and TAED alone react in water, peracetic acid is produced quickly but has relatively little stability and a short useful life (curve 10). When sodium perborate and acetylsalicylic acid are mixed in water, the peracetic acid solution takes an extended duration to reach maximum efficacy, but is stable for an extended duration (curve 12). The mixture of rapid and slow acetylating agents quickly produces a stable peracetic acid concentration (curve 14).

Title: Device for suppressing pressure surges in pipe systems, in particular plumbing installations.
Inventor: MARTIN KURT
IPC: F16K47/00
Filed: 1987-06-02
Granted: 1990-08-02
Abstract: An annular chamber (8) is formed between a pipeline section (1) and a housing (5, 6) surrounding same. This annular chamber is in communication, via openings (10, 11) in the wall of the pipeline section (1), with the interior (12) of the latter. An air-filled hose ring (16) is arranged in the annular chamber (8). The device damps the pressure surges occurring in domestic installations on account of the rapid closing of quick shutoff elements, for example lever mixers. The danger of damage to the pipelines and fittings is thereby avoided.

Title: Edge enhancement method and apparatus for dot matrix devices
Inventor: LUNG JAMES C Y
IPC: G06F3/14
Filed: 1991-09-05
Granted: 1994-07-28
Abstract: An edge enhancement method and apparatus for dot matrix devices are disclosed wherein a group of gradient mask matrices (174) are applied to a current matrix (172), wherein a TBAP (To Be Adjusted Pixel) is surrounded by neighboring pixels, to determine if the TBAP is at a location where a change of brightness occurs. From this matrix operation, a conclusion is derived as to the existence or non-existence of an edge and the direction of the brightness change. The current matrix (172) and a predetermined number of previously evaluated and yet to be evaluated pixels (366, 367) are then compared to a set of reference bit patterns which depict possible segment changes to be corrected. If the result indicates that the TBAP is on an edge of a changing edge segment, a corresponding code will be generated to modify the TBAP to enhance the smoothness of a segment transition. In the case of an electrophotographic printing machine, the specific code will change either the location or the size of the TBAP; whereas in the case of a monochrome screen display, the specific code will change the intensity of the TBAP <IMAGE>

Title: Preparation of finely divided pulverulent carotinoid and retinoid compositions
Inventor: HORN DIETER
IPC: A23L5/40
Filed: 1982-05-14
Granted: 1986-07-24
Abstract: Finely divided, pulverulent carotinoid or retinoid compositions, in which the carotinoid or retinoid essentially has a particle size of less than 0.5 micron, are prepared by a process wherein a carotinoid or retinoid is dissolved in a volatile, water-miscible, organic solvent at from 50 DEG  C. to 200 DEG  C., if necessary under superatmospheric pressure, within the space of less than 10 seconds. The carotinoid is immediately precipitated, in a colloidally disperse form, from the molecularly disperse solution by rapidly mixing the latter with an aqueous solution of a swellable colloid at from 0 DEG C. to 50 DEG  C., and the resulting dispersion is freed from the solvent and the dispersing medium in a conventional manner.

Title: Lathe-barfeed apparatus
Inventor: LOUIS ALEXANDRE
IPC: B23B13/12
Filed: 1982-07-08
Granted: 1986-10-02
Abstract: Feed apparatus for automatic lathes comprises a central section bar surrounded by one or more peripheral section bars, longitudinal grooves of arcuate cross-section in all the section bars matching and cooperating with each other to form longitudinal passages for guiding bar stock when the section bars are assembled. Linings may be placed in these passages to form tubes for guiding the bar stock, these tubes being very accurately positioned relative to the outer surface of the apparatus, which may be an outer tube into which the assembly of section bars is inserted. Hence the stock-guiding tubes can be more precisely positioned, and the apparatus can be produced at low cost because the section bars are inexpensive and assembly is simple. The apparatus is particularly suitable for feeding lathes on which objects made from bar stock of very different diameters has to be machined.

Title: Interlock circuit fore relays - has relay coils in resistance bridge branch and specified contactors allowing only one relay to operate at any time
IPC: H02H11/00
Filed: 1970-11-21
Abstract: The interlock switch, for relays, allows only one relay to be operated at any time. The operating coils of the relays are connected into one branch of a resistance bridge coupled via switches to a voltage source. Contactors (dl, 13, dl, 23) etc) are coupled in parallel with the coils (dl.1 dl2 etc.) of the relays (1-4) of several inter-dependent pre-selection controls (I, II). The number of these contractors is equal to one less than the number of pre-selection controls. The advantage lies in avoiding a series of chain of a large number of disconnectors.
