Title: Automated peritoneal dialysis system
Inventor: BRYANT ROBERT J
IPC: A61M5/00
Filed: 1994-02-28
Abstract: The system has an alarm system which reacts differently to different abnormal conditions. In more serious conditions dialysis operation is suspended and user intervention is required to resume operation. Where a less serious abnormal condition occurs, the dialysis operation is allowed to continue for a certain time and, only if the condition persists, is the operation suspended. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Processes are provided for the production of sec-butylbiphenyl and di-sec-butylbiphenyl
products which are useful as low odor dye solvents in carbonless paper
systems. The products are formed by alkylation of biphenyl and butene in the
presence of a Lewis acid catalyst complex or a zeolite catalyst such as Y, USY
mordenite, and ZSM-12 zeolites. The Lewis acid catalyst complex uses a Lewis acid,
an aromatic hydrocarbon and a hydrogen halide or alkyl halide, with more than about
50 mole % of the alkyl group substituents on the aromatic hydrocarbon being methyl
groups. Feedstocks containing biphenyl, sec-butylbiphenyl and di-sec-butylbiphenyl
may also be transalkylated using the Lewis acid catalyst complex or zeolite catalyst
to obtain the desired low odor sec-butylbiphenyl and di-sec-butylbiphenyl product.

Abstract: To enable the surveillance of a long-distance optical fiber line that a method
using the reflection lights and Rayleigh backscatter lights cannot cover, the invention
provides a method as follows. A plurality of optical reflection elements P1 - Pn are
interposed in the optical fiber line at each specific distance. Each of the optical
reflection elements P1 - Pn reflects only a light signal of one of specific wavelengths λ1 -
λn on a constant level. Light pulses of the specific wavelengths λl - λn are transmitted
to the optical fiber line to measure intensities of the light pulses reflected by the optical
reflection elements P1 - Pn. From the measurement, the surveillance of the optical
fiber line can be done between the transmitter and each of positions of the optical
reflection elements P1 - Pn. According to this method, the reflectance of the optical
reflection elements P1 - Pn can be set to 100%, and the surveillance becomes possible
even if the optical fiber line exceeds 200km.

Abstract: This invention relates to rapid set, medium set, and
slow set anionic emulsions prepared from straight bitumen
or bitumen modified by the incorporation of polymers such
as styrene butadiene rubbers (SBR), styrene block
copolymers (SBS), ethylene vinyl acetate copolymers (EVA),
and other suitable modifiers. The invention also relates
to emulsions modified by the incorporation of solvents
(such as diesel oil or kerosene) or by the addition of
polymer latices (such as SBR-latex or natural rubber
latex). More particularly, the invention relates to
improved methods for enhancing adhesion between asphalt and
aggregate in anionic solventless and solvent-containing
bituminous emulsions wherein the emulsifiers are alkali
earth salts of tall oil fatty acids, fortified tall oil
fatty acids, tall oil rosin and fortified rosin as well as
combinations of kraft lignin and nonionic emulsifiers. The
novel adhesion promoters utilized in these improved methods
are the polyamidoamine condensation reaction products of
polyalkylene polyamines with monomeric tall oil fatty acids
and polymerized linoleic acids. Further improvement in
adhesion can be obtained via adding paraformaldehyde to the
reaction.

Abstract: A JFET preamplifier for use with a high impedance transducer, having an
inherently capacitive input bias impedance. The capacitance of the input bias impedance
is effectively neutralized by capacitively coupling the JFET gate bias circuit to the
source electrode of the JFET. The JFET preamplifier is configured as a source follower
which reduces any capacitance between the JFET gate and source electrode by the open
loop gain of the amplifier. By capacitively coupling the JFET gate bias circuit
capacitance to the JFET source electrode, the overall input capacitance of the
preamplifier stage is reduced.

Abstract: This invention involves a new type of feedthrough-plug member for metal halide
HID lamp using PCA envelopes. The construction of the lamp housing consists of a
PCA envelope and specially designed radially graded alumina-metal cermet multi-layers
to eliminate cracking in cermet or PCA due to thermal stresses arising from
thermal expansion mismatch. The fills are metal halides such as Na-Sc-I,
rare earth
halides, Hg, Sn, and inert gases. The PCA vessel and directly sealed cermet-feedthrough
assemblies allow the metal halide lamps to operate at high wall temperatures
with better lumen output, color temperature, and CRI.

Abstract: Speech recognition systems and methods consistent with the present invention
process input speech signals organized into a series of frames. The input speech signal
is decimated to select K frames out of every L frames of the input speech signal
according to a decimation rate K/L. A first set of model distances is then calculated
for each of the K selected frames of the input speech signal, and a Hidden Markov
Model (HMM) topology of a first set of models is reduced according to the decimation
rate K/L. The system then selects a reduced set of model distances from the computed
first set of model distances according to the reduced HMM topology and selects a first
plurality of candidate choices for recognition according to the reduced set of model
distances. A second set of model distances is computed, using a second set of models,
for a second plurality of candidate choices, wherein the second plurality of candidate
choices correspond to at least a subset of the first plurality of candidate choices. The
second plurality of candidate choices are rescored using the second set of model
distances, and a recognition result is selected from the second plurality of candidate
choices according to the rescored second plurality of candidate choices.

Abstract: A controller (400) for a variable-speed
induction motor (498) includes field-oriented control
(410, 476), which in a feedback (402) arrangement
senses motor parameters to form field and torque error
signals. The field error signals are processed by a
first limited-state PI processor (490a), which
individually limits the magnitude of the proportional
component of the field voltage to no greater than the
bus voltage. The field error signals are also
processed by a state-limited integrator (426a) which
limits the integral component of the field voltage to
the difference between the proportional component and
the bus voltage. A first summer (432a) sums the
proportional and integral components to make the field
voltage command. The torque error signals are
processed by a further limited-state PI processor
(490b) which individually limits the proportional
component of the torque voltage to a value not greater
than the available bus voltage, after the first PI
processor has been given preference. The integral
component of the torque voltage command is generated by
a second state-limited integrator (426b) which limits
the integral component of the torque voltage command so
that the torque voltage command does not exceed the
available bus voltage. A second summing circuit (432b)
sums the proportional and integral components of the
torque voltage command. The field and torque voltage
commands are processed to produce the desired motor
flux and torque, and a feedback loop forces the motor
current to follow the commanded values.
