Patent JP-H052809-B2 (JP)
IPC: F02F1/42
Filed: 1987-01-14
Abstract: PURPOSE:To facilitate the machining of an oil feeding passage, by connecting a pivot part branch oil feeding passage and a camshaft bearing branch oil feeding passage both to one piece of the main oil feeding passage that is made to pierce through into each spark plug insertion cylinder of a cylinder head. CONSTITUTION:Piercing through each spark plug insertion cylinder 10 of a cylinder head 1, there is provided with one piece of a main oil feeding passage 20, and an inner cylinder 29 is fitly inserted into this spark plug insertion cylinder 10, thereby forming an annular oil feeding chamber 32. In addition, each rush adjuster 19 is installed in pivot parts 16 and 18 of a rocker arm for suction and exhaust valves, and a hydraulic chamber of the adjuster 19 and the annular oil feeding chamber 32 are interconnected to each other through pivot part branch oil feeding passages 27 and 28, then bearings 12 and 14 of a camshaft and the annular oil feeding chamber 32 are interconnected to each other through bearing branch oil feeding passages 25 and 26. With this constitution, the main oil feeding passage gets off with only one piece so that machining becomes facilitated.

Abstract: The auditory ossicle prosthesis is made entirely from fine gold or titanium. It can be made in one piece from a gold wire, which forms a shaft (21) and is wound into a coil (23) or spiral to form a surface (22) for the auditory ossicle prosthesis (20) to bear on the tympanic membrane. At the free end of the shaft (21) there is a flat contact surface (27). A curved wire area, as exists in the coil (23), makes it possible to change the length of the shaft, in other words to adapt the distance between the bearing surface (22) and the contact surface (27) to individual requirements.

Inventor: TSAU JOSEF HENG-KO
IPC: A23L27/30
Filed: 1988-07-14
Granted: 1992-02-27
Abstract: A method for the production of a self stabilized composition of dipeptide sweeteners useful in cooking and baking applications yields dipeptide granules of substantially uniform spherical shape that fall within a narrow particle size distribution range. The granules produced thereby possess both heat stability and a sustained release mechanism that insures proper and uniform dissolution and dispersion within the baked product. The heat stability is then further enhanced by a pH buffer or weak acid in the granule or by encapsulating said granule with fat, protein, starch or other polymers.

Granted: 1987-08-27
Abstract: A spring cramp for large helical springs, particularly axle springs of motor vehicles, comprises two loose disc-shaped pressure plates having annular contact surfaces serving as abutments for the spring turns and provided each with a central hole, a threaded spindle, and a threaded tube. The threaded spindle is mounted by means of an axial bearing for rotary motion and concentrically in a guide tube on which a shoulder is provided near the head of the spindle, which shoulder is formed with two lug elements for securing a lower one of the pressure plates at the side of the spindle head against rotation. The threaded tube which is threadable onto the spindle may be advantageously telecopically inserted into the guide tube. The threaded tube and the guide tube are non-rotatably connected to each other by two slot-and-feather connections. The threaded tube can be connected non-rotatably, in the direction of axial tension, to the other pressure plate, so that during the compression of a spring, the two plates are secured against mutual rotation.

Title: Sealing device for introducing cement into a bone canal
Inventor: NOBLE PHILIP CHRISTOPHER
IPC: A61F2/46
Filed: 1988-11-29
Granted: 1990-08-16
Abstract: A proximal femoral sealing device 10 is disclosed for use in the application of bone cement under pressure to a surgically prepared medullary canal 15 of a femur prior to the implantation of a hip prosthesis. The proximal femoral sealing device 10 is formed of a generally solid body member 12 with a passageway 26 and a flexible annular wall member 14 extending from the body member 12. The sealing device 10 has an anatomically shaped outer surface 13, corresponding to the exposed endosteal surface 11 of a prepared medullary canal 15. A chamber 16 defined by a flexible annular wall 14 and the body member 12 opens into the medullary canal 15. In turn, the passageway 26 communicates with the chamber 16 and permits insertion of a cement nozzle 27 therethrough into the chamber. In operation, the proximal femoral sealing device 10 is placed within the proximal end of a surgically prepared medullary canal 15. The canal 15 and chamber 16 of the sealing device are filled with cement resulting in the expansion of the flexible annular wall member 14 against the exposed endosteal walls 11 of the medullary canal 15 by cement pressure within the chamber thereby forming a pressure seal. The escape of cement through the open end of the excavated medullary canal 15 is prevented via this pressure seal insuring that the applied cement is properly pressurized and that the medullary canal 15 is prepared for implementation of the prosthetic device 10. A method of providing cement under pressure to the exposed endosteal surface 11 of a medullary canal 15 is also disclosed using this proximal femoral sealing device 10.

Abstract: A capacitor charging circuit for charging a defibrillation capacitor in a constant period of time regardless of battery voltage by employing a controlled duty cycle charging technique. The defibrillation capacitor is charged in a piecemeal manner through a transistor and flyback transformer circuit. The gate of the transistor is driven by a constant frequency pulse train inverter drive signal in which voltage is conveyed to the capacitors during one-half of the full cycle of the pulse train. The primary of the transformer is controlled by each pulse of the inverter drive signal so that the secondary of the transformer supplies current to the defibrillation capacitors during the off half cycle of the drive signal, the charge being built up in the defibrillation capacitors incrementally during the off half cycle of the inverter drive signal until the predetermined voltage is reached. <IMAGE>
