Title: Fourreau jetable pour endoscope
Inventor: REISDORF DENNIS
IPC: A61B1/00
Filed: 1994-07-21
Abstract: Fourreau jetable (10) pour endoscope qui comporte un manchon mince (12) coopérant avec la tige de l'endoscope (36) pour définir un espace d'irrigation (86) relativement étroit entre le manchon (12) et la tige (36) de l'endoscope. Ledit manchon (12) est conçu à dessein plus court que la tige (36) de l'endoscope de manière à accueillir des endoscopes de longueurs différentes qui sont plus longs que le manchon. Dans divers modes de réalisation de la présente invention, le manchon (12) peut être mis en place de manière à définir un écart distal prédéterminé (100) entre l'extrémité terminale (94) du manchon (12) et l'extrémité d'observation de la tige (36) de l'endoscope. Le liquide d'irrigation peut donc couler sur l'extrémité d'observation de l'endoscope afin d'évacuer les déchets chirurgicaux de ladite extrémité.

Abstract: A process and device are disclosed for preventing sediments from precipitating from mixtures of for example crude oil (4), refinery products and petrochemicals, which otherwise settle mainly at the bottom of cistern installations (T). Sediments have a precursor in the form of a thickening precipitation zone (4, 2). The precipitation of sediments is prevented by disturbing the formation of the precipitation zone (4, 2). This disturbance takes the form of global disturbance patterns (S) with local disturbance spots (L) and is applied according to the disturbance pattern (S) in a disturbance zone by means of disturbance devices (V) with disturbing means. The disturbance is hydrodynamically or mechanically applied by nozzles arranged in the disturbance zones through which crude oil flows out or by strings that may be made to vibrate as disturbing means (8, 12) excited by exciting elements (5) through pulling and pushing units (6) in the disturbance devices. The strings vibrate with fundamental and partial waves and deflect the components of the mixtures depending on the amplitude of said sonic waves.

Abstract: The device detects if a person goes overboard on a ship. The device includes a first unit (11) and a connection element (13) coupled to the person being monitored. The latter (13) is at least indirectly in connection with the boat to detect the presence of the person. The device also includes analysis and control units (15) which monitor the connection to ensure it is maintained. A current loop is formed using the first unit (11) and the connection element (13). The analysis and control system (15) monitors that the current loop is intact. At least one element is attached to the person being monitored. An alarm (19) is controlled by the analysis and control system (15) to alert assistance. A further part of the system (23) actuates a man-overboard interface of a navigation system (21) to detect the actual position of the boat when the current loop is broken.

Abstract: The switch has a contact carrier (100), with an indexing arrangement defining stable rest and supply positions. A return finger (200) is spring loaded against a cam surface (132) on the carrier. The finger locates against another cam (510), on the direction shaft, not interfering at rest. The finger interferes with the cam when switched to supply, but is biased to return to rest. A slider (300) carries the finger pivoting about an axis (215) which is displaced by the direction shaft cam, maintaining the contact in the supply position. The slider also pivots selectively around two axes (313) symmetrical relative to its median plane at rest. This median plane may pass through the direction shaft axis (500) and that of the contact carrier. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A highly symmetrical bi-directional current source (18) biased between first and second (Vdd, Gnd) supply voltages in CMOS FET technology comprises an current generator (11') which includes an innovative circuit (19) and a standard switching circuit (12). The switching circuit consists of two pairs of complementary FET devices that are paralleled with a unity gain operational amplifier connected between their common nodes. In a first branch, a diode-connected PFET device (T1) and a current supply (13) are connected in series as standard to generate a reference current (Iref) as standard. The second branch includes the standard first mirroring device (T3), first and second resistively-connected complementary devices (T10,T11) with an intermediate node (20) coupled therebetween and a second mirroring NFET device (T12) are all connected in series. The third branch is formed by first (T2) and second (T5) output FET devices with said switching circuit connected between their drains to select either the source or the sink current to be outputted at the output node (14) as the output current (Iout). By designing the type and the size of corresponding devices in the second and third branches to be substantially the same, an excellent impedance matching can be obtained therebetween. Said innovative circuit further includes an operational amplifier based circuit (OP2, R) whose positive input is connected to said intermediate node, its negative input is connected to one (15) of said common node and the output is connected to the node (21) formed by the gates of said second mirroring and output devices so that there is no potential difference between its inputs.

Abstract: Apparatus and methods for transmitting and receiving a digital data signal. At the transmitter side, packets of p m-bit digital words in a digital signal are error protection encoded to produce error protection encoded packets of n m-bit digital words making up an error protection signal, where n>p. The error protection encoded packets are converted into converted packets of digital words to form a channel encoded signal, which signal is supplied to a transmission medium. The conversion involves use of a generator for supplying a fixed auxiliary packet of n digital words; a calculation unit for calculating in a Galois field GF(2m) a converted digital word in accordance with the formula DWi+ alpha .FWi, where DWi and FWi are the binary values corresponding to the i-th digital words in the packet to be converted and the auxiliary packet, respectively,  alpha  is a binary value, and the converted digital word is the i-th converted digital word in the converted packet, where i runs from 1 to n; and a digital sum value determining unit for determining the digital sum value of at least a converted packet in the channel encoded signal. The calculation unit determines a value  alpha def with the converted digital words obtained by the Galois field GF(2m) calculation of DWi+ alpha def. FWi so as to obtain the converted packet, the value  alpha def for  alpha  being such that a running digital sum value of the converted packets shows a desired pattern as a function of time. The receiver side operates in an opposite manner.

Abstract: An image is permanently transferred to a substrate having a cotton component, or other component which is absorbent or porous, from a medium printed with the image by a computer driven printer. A polymer surface preparation material and an ink are transferred by the printer to the medium from a ribbon or ink composition containing the ink and the surface preparation material, without activating the surface preparation material. The image is transferred from the medium to the substrate by applying sufficient heat and pressure to the medium to transfer the ink and the surface preparation material, with the surface preparation material bonding the ink to the substrate.

A backbone network protocol (19) is provided for communicating between the network controller (15) and all of the base stations (13) and between the base stations (13) along the network backbone themselves. A common air interface protocol (21) is provided for communicating between a portable (17) and a base station (13). The other base stations (13) function as slaves relative to the network controller (15). Each slave base station (13) defines a discrete cell within which communication between a portable (17) disposed within a cell and the base station (13) generating the cell is able to be performed over the common air interface. A method of communicating using a startup procedure which assigns different operating carrier frequencies to each of the base stations for the common air interfaces of the cells therefor is also described.
