Patent EP-0912139-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CHIN ALBERT K
IPC: A61B1/00
Filed: 1997-01-24
Abstract: A cannula (100) includes a tubular body (102) having a proximal end (104) and distal blunt end (106), at least one lumen (108) extending the length of the body (102), an endoscope (110) having a lighted, viewing end (112) disposed in the lumen (109) near the distal end (106) of the body (102), and a transparent, tissue separating tip (122) substantially covering the distal end of the body. The tissue separating tip (122) is slightly blunted to inhibit avulsion of tissue and lateral vessels along the dissected cavity formed thereby. Endoscopic viewing through the tip is enhanced by tapering the inner walls thereof to a cusp (120) adjacent the blunt tip in order to reduce visual distortion. Alternatively, a cannula includes a dissection probe (907) and endoscope (110) to facilitate viewing and the dissection of connective tissue and lateral vessels along the dissectible cavity.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un séparateur d'extraction de particules fines d'un courant d'air, consistant en un séparateur pneumatique à éléments de filtrage intérieurs relativement fins retenant les particules aussi fines que le micron. Le fonctionnement du séparateur pneumatique est fondé sur un effet tourbillonnaire et sur des changements brusques de direction du courant d'air pour éliminer la plupart des particules, mais comme les particules très fines ont une masse insuffisante pour être éliminées de cette manière, elles restent dans le courant d'air et sont dirigées vers les éléments de filtrage où elles s'accumulent. Cette accumulation est interrompue par l'air entrant qui circule agressivement autour des éléments et arrache une partie des particules accumulées des éléments filtrants. Ce procédé continu aléatoire peut être complété si nécessaire par un rétrosoufflage. Les particules séparées et les particules accumulées sont toutes recueillies dans le séparateur en vue de leur éjection ultérieure.

Abstract: A device for delivering a calibrated volume of a first liquid (203, 404, 504) during the filling or draining of a main container (202, 402, 502) with a second liquid (204), is disclosed. The device includes said main container (202, 402, 502) containing said second liquid (204) and comprising means for controlling the filling and draining cycles of said second liquid (204); an auxiliary container (201, 401, 501) containing said first liquid (203, 404, 504); and a generally vertical calibrating element (207, 406, 506) comprising a lower end and an upper end. The lower end of the calibrating element is connected to the main container (202, 402, 502) in such a way that said first or second liquid can enter said calibrating element (207, 406, 506) up to a level related to the level of the second liquid in said main container (202, 402, 502) during filling thereof. Means are provided for controlling the outflow from the auxiliary container (201, 401, 501) of a volume of said first liquid that is substantially the same as the volume of the first or second liquid that previously entered said calibrating element while said main container was being drained.

Abstract: A heated substrate is dipped into a fluidized bed containing particles of polymer to coat the substrate. The coating can subsequently be leveled (and cured if thermosetting) by heating the coated substrate above the melting point of the polymer. The process can be employed to provide desirable properties such as corrosion resistance and aesthetic qualities to the substrate, and to apply very thin coatings.

Abstract: The present invention provides a memory access
optimizing method which judges an access method suitable
for each of memory accesses and executes the preload
optimization and prefetch optimization, according to the
judgement result, for an architecture equipped with a
prefetch mechanism to write the data on a main storage
device into a cache memory and a preload mechanism to
write the data on the main storage device into a
register without writing it into the cache memory. The
memory access method judging step analyzes whether or
not there is a designation of a memory access method by
a user. Moreover, the memory access method judging step
investigates whether or not the data are already in a
cache memory, whether or not the data compete with other
data for a cache, whether or not the data are to be
referred to again later, and whether or not the data
fulfill the restriction on register resources.

Abstract: A method for forming a thin film of a metal compound
is disclosed. Within a vacuum chamber, a metallic ultra-thin
film of a metal or an incompletely-reacted metal is
deposited on a substrate. The metallic ultra-thin film is
brought in contact with the electrically neutral activated
species of a reactive gas so as to convert the metallic
ultra-thin film to an ultra-thin film of a metal compound
through the reaction of the metallic ultra-thin film with
the activated species of the reactive gas. The above-described
steps are sequentially repeated so as to deposit
on the substrate the ultra-thin film of the metal compound
in layers until a thin film of the metal compound having a
desired thickness is formed on the substrate.
