Title: Pompe de transport, appareil de stabilisation d'organes, et procedes mis en oeuvre
Inventor: ABOUL-HOSN WALID
IPC: A61M60/894
Filed: 1997-10-14
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une pompe convenant aux fluides physiologiques tels que le sang, pour des interventions chirurgicales, en remplacement des circulations extracorporelles (CE) conventionnelles à pompes coeur-poumons. La pompe de l'invention comporte une canule de prélèvement (20) dont la première extrémité, l'extrémité distale, vient s'insérer dans un premier vaisseau. La pompe comporte également une canule de refoulement (30) coaxiale, sur une partie de sa longueur, avec la canule de prélèvement (20) par rapport à laquelle elle est plus grande. La première extrémité de cette canule de refoulement, l'extrémité distale, vient s'insérer dans un second vaisseau. Les deux secondes extrémités des canules coaxiales sont raccordées au carter de pompe (52). Ce carter (52) comporte une entrée (62) pour la canule intérieure et des fenêtres de refoulement (64) pour la canule extérieure. Un accélérateur à rotor (70), logé dans le carter, est connecté à un moteur électrique (80) en rotation coaxiale en dessous du carter de pompe. Ce carter comporte des orifices de passage intérieur (56) et extérieur (59) qui permettent le prélèvement, le changement de sens d'écoulement (inversion) et le refoulement du fluide. Cela fait que l'on a deux flux coaxiaux à contre-courant l'un par rapport à l'autre dans les canules coaxiales. Cette pompe peut s'utiliser en n'employant qu'une seule porte. On peut utiliser des ballonnets gonflables, non seulement pour stabiliser les canules in situ, mais également pour stabiliser les parois des organes ou des vaisseaux où sont insérées les canules.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un dispositif émetteur (15) prévu pour communiquer avec plusieurs réseaux, et muni d'un gestionnaire de communications (22) et d'un gestionnaire de mobilité (20). Le gestionnaire de mobilité (20) comporte une base de données (40) contenant une table de réseaux (42) où figurent les réseaux potentiels et un filtre (38). Ledit filtre (38) produit une liste assortie de priorités des réseaux qualifiés par l'intermédiaire desquels des objets de données peuvent être transférés. L'invention porte également sur un procédé de tamisage et filtrage de la table de réseaux (42) des réseaux potentiels et leurs caractéristiques. Une liste priorisée des réseaux qualifiés est produite où chacun des réseaux qualifiés a un ordre de priorité. Une demande de transmission, produite sur la base d'une combinaison de l'objet de données et de la liste des réseaux se qualifiant, est transmise sur le réseau qualifié sélectionné (26, 28 ou 30) présentant la priorité la plus élevée.

Abstract: The present invention provides for a method of measuring layer thickness in an object comprising 1) transmitting at least a first and a second ultra-sonic pulse from at least a first and second position, 2) measuring at least one reflective distance from the first pulse and at least one reflective distance from the second pulse, wherein the reflective distance is from the object's external surface (or probe) to a reflective interface of at least one layer, 3) selecting the reflective distance having the shortest reflective distance to indicate the distance between the external surface (or probe surface) and the reflective interface of at least one layer, wherein the selecting of the shortest reflective distance reduces ultra-sonic transmission parallax of the first and second pulses relative to a plane in the object.

Abstract: The invention discloses a method for purifying adipic acid by crystallization or recrystallization in at least one carbolyxic acid. More precisely, it discloses an improvement in adipic acid crystallization or recrystallization, characterised in that the said crystallization or recrystallization is effected in at least one carboxylic acid with a melting point below 20 °C. The presence of carbon monoxide during crystallization or recrystallization can have a favourable effect on the adipic acid purity, in particular by reducing the content of metal catalyst traces of the adipic acid. The adipic acid purity can also be improved when the crystallization or recrystallization is effected in presence of a strong proton acid.

Abstract: The invention relates to a sealing material made of
expanded graphite and a method of producing it. In the
sealing material made of expanded graphite of the invention,
a surface layer portion of an expanded graphite base material
11 in which expanded graphite particles 1 are pressurized is
subjected to a blast process or the like, whereby the weight
of the expanded graphite base material 11 is reduced by a
range of 0.5 to 3%, so that the diffraction peak of an X-ray
diffraction of the exposed surface layer portion of the
expanded graphite base material 11 is in a range of 26.52 to
26.48. In such an sealing material made of expanded graphite,
the elongation rate and the tensile strength are improved,
and also the flexibility is remarkably improved. Therefore,
also extension of the application range of a product and
improvement of the productivity of a product can be attained.
The sealing material may be preferably used in various kinds
of sealing members for high-temperature use such as a
packing, a gasket, a V-shaped ring, and a valve seat, and a
sliding material such as a bearing, or a heat insulating
material for a high temperature vacuum furnace.

Abstract: A combustion control method for waste incinerators, developed
for the purpose of reducing the concentrations of CO and NOx in a
waste gas and a generation rate of dioxine. The condition of the waste
on a post-combustion fire grate (3c) is judged on the basis of
measurement values on a main flue thermometer (14), an O 2  analyser
(16), a CO concentration meter (17) and a barometer (18a) which is set
under the post-combustion fire grate. Thus, the possibility that the
apparatus will get into an insufficient temperature condition, or an air or
fuel shortage condition is judged quickly, and the flow rate of the air to
the post-combustion fire grate (3c), or the flow rate of the air to the
same fire grate (3c) and the moving speed of the fire grate are
controlled.

Abstract: A method of compressing and decompressing digitally encoded data resulting in improved compression ratios is disclosed. The method utilizes the wavelet transform and the frequency response of human perception to determine which transform coefficients are important for perception. The method estimates the wavelet transform's discarded high frequency coefficients. At each level of the inverse transform, the method estimates the missing high frequency coefficients based on the complete set of low frequency coefficients and the filter coefficients. The resulting inverse wavelet transform is a high quality reproduction of the original image.
