Abstract: A longitudinal position translator includes a probe drive module and a linear translation module. The probe drive module is coupled operatively to an ultrasonic imaging probe assembly having a distally located ultrasound transducer subassembly in such a manner that longitudinal shifting of the transducer subassembly may be effected. The probe drive module is preferably mounted to the linear translation unit so as to be moveable between a condition whereby longitudinal shifting of the transducer subassembly can be conducted either manually or automatically. When in the automatically-operable condition, the probe drive module will be engaged with a motor-driven screw associated with the linear translation module so as to cause the probe drive module to be longitudinally displaced at a constant motor-driven rate. In this manner, the distally located ultrasound transducer is longitudinally shifted during an ultrasound scan of surrounding intravascular (or other) tissue to thereby allow axially-spaced 360 DEG  data sample "slices" of the surrounding tissue to be obtained. The data samples may then be reconstructed into a three-dimensional or other two-dimensional representations of the scanned vessel to assist in diagnosis.

Abstract: Est décrite une pièce mécanique comportant un élément extérieur présentant sur sa face intérieure une surface de chemin de roulement, un élément intérieur présentant sur sa face extérieure une surface de chemin de roulement, et des éléments de roulement insérés entre les surfaces de chemin de roulement de ces éléments extérieur et intérieur. Des pièces mécaniques de ce type englobent les paliers de moyeu et les joints de transmission homocinétiques pour automobiles, dont il convient de réduire les dimensions et le poids. L'élément extérieur présentant une forme complexe est réalisé en acier ordinaire qui peut être transformé aisément, et la surface de son chemin de roulement est soumise à une trempe par induction, de sorte que la couche de surface trempée résultante puisse assurer une résistance suffisante à l'abrasion. Néanmoins, la problématique est de trouver un moyen de prolonger la durée de vie des éléments de roulement, tels que des billes, utilisés sous une pression de surface élevée, mais présentant un poids de plus en plus réduit. La pièce mécanique décrite possède une couche trempée par induction qui constitue la couche de surface du chemin de roulement de son élément extérieur, et se compose d'acier ordinaire contenant 0,50-0,70 % en poids de carbone et 0,5-1,0 % en poids de silicium et/ou d'aluminium. Les éléments de roulement roulant ou coulissant sur lesdites surfaces de chemin de roulement sont réalisés en acier chromifère dur trempé et revenu, et possèdent une couche de surface carbonitrurée, ce qui permet d'améliorer la durée de vie des éléments de roulement travaillant sous une pression de surface élevée.

Abstract: The vacuum cleaner nozzle of the invention has a nozzle body (1) with a suction-pipe connection and a baseplate (2) which closes off the nozzle body at the bottom, the baseplate having at least one flow channel (3, 4) which is open at the bottom and leads into a central suction channel (5) connected to the suction-pipe connection, and sealing or closing-off elements which surround the flow channel at least in certain regions. The nozzle body and the baseplate are designed here as an integral carrier, into which the flow channel or the flow channels and the suction channel are directly moulded. The sealing or closing-off elements in the form of bristle strips (17, 18) and/or sealing lips (13, 14) are directly moulded and/or pressed, injected or adhesively bonded into the baseplate. By virtue of this design, the number of components of the vacuum cleaner nozzle is reduced substantially, thereby resulting in a significant simplification with regard to production and assembly. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The present invention offers a method of measuring the activity of a tested substance which inhibits or promotes the production of the blood coagulation factor XII in an active form. An activation reaction of a blood coagulation factor XII is initiated by adding a blood coagulation factor XII activator to the animal plasma in the presence of the tested substance, then the reaction is stopped and the blood coagulation factor XII in an active form produced in the above reaction is quantitatively determined. FXIIa plays a very important role in the initiation stage in the intrinsic blood clotting system, fibrinolysis system and plasma kallikrein-kinin system and, accordingly, also in the measuring method of the present invention, in which the activity of the tested substance having the inhibiting or promoting action on the production of FXIIa is very highly useful in screening the drugs related to blood clotting and fibrinolysis systems and those related to plasma kallikrein-kinin system such as, for example, blood pressure controlling agents, antiinflammatory agents, analgesics, antiallergic agents, etc.

Abstract: A data driver circuit and system driving scheme that can be integrated directly onto an LCD display substrate to reduce the cost of the peripheral integrated circuits and the hybrid assembly needed by unscanned active matrix liquid crystal displays to connect them to the array. A demultiplexer circuit is deposited on the display for demultiplexing a group of Y columns of multiplexed video data input signals to X groups of Y pixel capacitors that are also deposited on the substrate in Z rows. In addition, a data driver circuit provides voltage signals to precharge the pixel capacitors to a first voltage level in a first time period such that video data input signals coupled thereto in a multiplexed fashion during a second time period causes the pixel capacitors to store to a second predetermined voltage level to provide a video display as the rows of pixels are sequentially scanned.

Abstract: This invention relates to a plasma cutting method and a NC plasma cutting apparatus, which enable the quality of a bore-cut product obtained by using transferred plasma arc to be improved, and the productive efficiency of such a product to be improved. The transferred plasma arc is switched to non-transferred plasma arc in a position immediately before a cutting finishing point and a position in the vicinity of a position in which cutting lines cross each other. Simultaneously with this switching operation, a moving speed of the plasma torch is varied in accordance with the variation of a plasma arc current. A transferred plasma arc current is reduced in a position immediately before a cutting finishing point and a position in the vicinity of a position in which cutting lines cross each other. The moving speed of the plasma torch may be varied in accordance with the reduction of this arc current. At the cutting starting time and during a cutting operation, the voltage detecting function is stopped, and an operation of this function is started in a position immediately before a cutting finishing point and a position in the vicinity of a position in which cutting lines cross each other.
