Abstract: A surgical bone preparation instrument that is effective to prepare the surface of
adjacent bone structures, and more particularly to remove a predetermined portion of
bone from the vertebral endplates of adjacent vertebral bodies (58,60), is provided. In general,
the surgical bone preparation instrument includes a housing member (12) having an inner
lumen (14) formed therein, and an elongate member (16) rotatably disposable within the housing
member. The housing member can include a distraction member (24) adapted to be disposed

Abstract: A torsion spring for a MEMS structure has a plurality of beams, each
beam having two ends wherein both ends are fixed to a predetermined area,
and at least one connection bar disposed at a right angle to a lengthwise
direction of the plurality of beams, wherein the at least one connection bar
connects the plurality of beams. Preferably, the distance between the
connection bars is equal to or greater than the width of one of the plurality of
beams. Accordingly, a torsion spring according to the present invention has
a bending stiffness greater than a torsional stiffness, which allows easier
torsion. Further, a torsion spring according to the present invention may be
easily fabricated by etching.

Abstract: The present invention is a system and method for detecting a jamming signal. The
signal is detected by analyzing a spectrum of PCS, wireless network and pager
wavebands (or, in other words, any wireless network) and by looking for unusual

IPC: G01R31/30

Abstract: Described is a system with three on chip monitoring test structures. If any
of the three test structures indicates an end of life failure, a bit will be set
indicating that the IC is near failure and should be replaced. This is done prior to
actual device failure and will eliminate down time of the system where this IC is
used. The first test structure monitors hot carrier degradation and is comprised of
two ring oscillators. One is subjected to hot carrier effects (degrading ring
oscillator) and the other is not subjected to hot carrier effects (non-degrading ring
oscillator). Initially, both ring oscillators will each have fixed frequencies, but as
the device ages, hot carrier effects degrade the degrading ring counter. Using the
non-degrading ring oscillator, the degradation can be quantified and flag a failure.
The second test structure monitors TDDB degradation. A plurality of N parallel
connected capacitors have a stress voltage applied to them such that the time to
failure of the first capacitor is the same time to failure experienced by 0.1
percentile of gates under normal usage. Breakdown of a capacitor is observed
by a drop in the resistance of the structure and is used to trigger a bit indicating a
TDDB end of life signal. The third test structure monitors electromigration
degradation. M minimum width metal lines are connected in parallel. A current is
applied to them such that the time to failure of all metal lines is the same as the
time to failure experienced by 0.1 percentile of minimum width metal lines under
normal usage. Breakdown of a metal line is observed by an increase in the
resistance of the structure and is used to trigger a bit indicating an
electromigration end of life signal. 0.1 percentile is given as an example and can
be varied depending upon the users definition of device lifetime.

Abstract: A hole opener and
method for using same which allows for
a greater number of cone cutters (135)
to be attached to the hole opener. The
support structure provided by the present
invention uses a barrel which is attached
to the drill stem (105) to effectively
increase the diameter of the drill stem
(105) so that additional cutters (135) may
be attached to the hole opener. Using the
barrel structure, the structural integrity of
the tool is not compromised, and a support
structure for the cutters (135) is provided.
The cone cutters may be removable from
the barrel. The removable structure is
provided by placing a bolt (305) inside
the segments (140) which is used to mate
the segment (140) with a pocket (145)
attached to the barrel. This results in a
very versatile tool in that the same boring
head may be used for boring various types
of materials. The barrel structure of the
present invention also provides a means
for trapping cones (135) inside the barrel
to prevent the cone cutters (135) from
being left inside the hole. The tapered
shape of the hole opener allows it to be
forced back to the point of entry after
drilling in order to displace debris.

Abstract: A double valve for controlling a machine tool has a memory such that when
the valve is in its normal deactuated state and the inlet air supply is cycled (e.g., turned
from on to off or from off to on), then the valve remains in the deactuated (i.e., ready
to run) state. When the valve is in a faulted state (e.g., intermediate position) and the
inlet air supply is cycled, then the valve remains in the faulted state. The memory is
achieved by a balanced condition of the movable valve elements when in the normal
deactuated position and an unbalanced or latched condition when in the intermediate
or faulted position.

Abstract: A displacement sensor utilizes a Hall effect sensor and a magnet, but has an extended range compared to conventional Hall effect displacement sensors. Relative movement between the sensor and the magnet is defined such that the path of movement is not parallel to an axis between the north and south poles of the magnet. Thus, the total path of movement is greater than in the prior art. One particularly preferred application for this sensor is in a disc brake, and as part of an adjustment mechanism for adjusting the position of the disc brake pistons. The displacement sensor is relatively small, and thus can be accommodated in the crowded environment of the disc brake adjustment mechanism. On the other hand, with the inventive large range displacement sensor, the simple and compact sensor can provide adequate measurement of the displacement of the piston.

Abstract: A universal motor has a brush cage assembly in which a U-shaped clip 34 is located about a wall of a through hole 28 of a bearing bracket 24 for receiving a brush cage 30. The clip 34 has an outer limb 42 with inwardly and rearwardly directed barbs 44 to grip an outer surface of the wall to prevent removal of the clip 34 and an inner limb 36 with outwardly and forwardly directed barbs 42 which resiliently deform as the cage 30 is inserted to snare the cage 30 should it move in the opposite direction. The clip 34 thus prevents withdrawal of the brush cage 30 and provides a lateral spring force against the cage 30 to reduce cage lateral position tolerance and movement.
