Title: Apparatus for automatic horizontal adjustment of a seat.
Inventor: CARLGREN KLAS
IPC: B60N2/39
Filed: 1993-08-13
Abstract: An apparatus for automatic horizontal adjustment of a seat of a motor vehicle or a vessel comprises a base in form of a base plate (11), drive means (30, 32) fixed at the base plate (11), and a seat element (5) displaceably connected with the base plate (11) and arranged to be positionally influenced by the drive means (30, 32). The displaceable connection is obtained by lateral annular segment beads of the seat element (5), running in facing grooves of two lateral supports (12, 13) fixed at the base plate (11). For horizontal adjustment the seat element (5) is rotated around an imaginary axis extending above the seat element (5). Horizontal adjustment is controlled by a detection means arranged at the underside of the seat element (5) and by a means for control of the drive means (30, 32) and coupled with the detection means. Also disclosed is a combination of two of said apparatus for horizontal adjustment by independent rotation of a seat around two axes perpendicular to each other in vertical projection.

Abstract: Procédé permettant d'émettre un signal numérique comprenant des trames de c÷fficients de fréquences disposées en bandes (201), lesdits c÷fficients étant représentés par un certain nombre de bits. Ce procédé consiste à générer une valeur de classe (203) correspondant au rapport de l'énergie présente dans une bande à l'énergie moyenne présente dans les autres bandes; ce rapport est calculé pour chacune des bandes. Lorsque le nombre de bits dépasse un seuil prédéterminé (220), il est ramené (222) à une valeur inférieure ou égale au seuil prédéterminé par élimination des c÷fficients de fréquences relevant des bandes dont les valeurs de classe sont les plus faibles. Les c÷fficients de fréquences restants sont alors émis (226).

Abstract: A bone fixation device such as a screw, pin, staple, cable or anchor has a microtextured contact surface to enhance installation or gripping characteristics, preferably by providing directional or anisotropic engagement. A surface texture comprised of patterned microfeatures imparts a roughness or actual mechanical engagement that prevents loosening. In different embodiments the features resemble an array of microbumps or pyramids, or anisotropic features such as rasp teeth, shingles, or slanted cantilevered fiber/rods. The use of microbumps present a smaller surface area when moving, while providing full area contact after the surfaces have relaxed or decompressed; installation may be effected with low force, while high static or resting friction prevents disengagement. Features with directional asymmetry or angled suspension allow the textured surface to slide or deflect when the fixation device moves in one direction, while presenting a high resistance to torque or linear motion when moved in the other direction. Manufacturing is achieved with ion beams or directional treatment with energetic radiation, and regular arrays of the microfeatures may be produced as stationary surface growth phenomena without the use of pattern masks or mechanical contact. One manufacturing apparatus rotates the fixation device about a longitudinal axis while it is irradiated along an oblique axis. A bone pin may have centrally-directed spurs that allow a multi-segment fracture to be securely pinned without threading. An elastic fastener body such as a screw or pin can be pre-tensioned to place the bone under a torsional or compressive load, or introduce strain at the healing site.

Abstract: The method involves performing correction between two neighbouring sensors (Cj,Cj+1) by detecting the difference in intensities of the signals (Sj,Sj+1) provided by the sensors. The correction is made by an adjustment in the level of the direct components of the two signals as a function of the measured signal intensities. The correction is then continued by further comparison between one sensor and the next across the image detector. The correction circuit pref. contains a subtractor which subtracts the signal strengths after integration.

Title: Twisted-conductor bundle for the windings of electric machines and equipment
Inventor: PERGER PAUL
IPC: H01F27/28
Filed: 1995-02-23
Abstract: The aim of the invention is to provide a twisted-conductor bundle which meets the requirements of machine and equipment designers and enables the material to be used more efficiently while preferably also reducing the equipment height. Described is a twisted-conductor bundle (1) made up of flat-wire conductors (2) disposed one above the other. As in the prior art, the bundle may consist of up to about 80 conductors. The invention calls for at least one spacer (4) to be disposed between two superposed conductors (2) in each conductor stack, the transverse channels (5) thus formed in each conductor stack being flush with each other. The spacers (4) may be located in the same plane or in different planes in the conductor stack. A cooling channel (5) is thus formed through which coolant may be passed. When this twisted-conductor bundle is used in a transformer winding, a cooling channel is formed in the direction of the winding axis. The invention makes it possible for the first time to improve cooling in the axial direction. The improved cooling enables the current density to be increased, thus reducing the amount of copper necessary for the winding.
