Abstract: A first reflector (11201), equipped with a light
source, and a second reflector (11202) are each able to
deflection a reflection direction thereof toward a
vehicular turn direction independently of the other. A
driving section (2) that operatively performs a deflection
drive for the first and second reflectors is controlled by
a controller (3) on the basis of the outputs of a vehicular
velocity detector (6) and a vehicular steering angle
detector (5) in such a manner that the second reflector
(11202) is deflected toward the vehicular turn direction
according to the detected steering angle when the detected
vehicular velocity falls in a low velocity range and that
the first reflector (11201) is deflected toward the
vehicular turn direction according to the steering angle
when the detected vehicular velocity falls in a high
velocity range.

According to a first preferred aspect of the invention, the peg holes are preferably non-linearly arranged and provided such that the holes are positioned increasingly distal in a medial to lateral direction along the second side. According to a second preferred aspect, axes through the holes are oblique relative to each other and preferably angled relative to each other in two dimensions. The system includes a guide plate which temporarily sits on top of the volar plate and includes holes oriented according to the axes of the peg holes for guiding a drill into the bone fragments at the required orientation. The volar plate is positioned against the radius and screws are inserted through the screw holes to secure the volar plate to the radius. The bone fragments are aligned, and the guide plate assists in drilling pilot hole. The pegs are inserted through the peg holes and into the drilled holes in the bone. The volar fixation system thereby secures the bone fragments in their proper orientation.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé permettant de détecter des substances à activité rédox, par combinaison d'une cellule de mesure électrochimique, recouverte d'une membrane, avec un médiateur rédox et une unité de commande. La cellule de mesure contient plusieurs électrodes de travail à grande proximité spatiale, ainsi que des électrodes de protection et des contre-électrodes. L'unité de commande comprend plusieurs sources de tension continue régulables pour polariser les électrodes et une commande de synchronisation qui pilote la séquence de la polarisation d'électrodes et la mesure des courants. L'analyte réagit dans la cellule de mesure avec le médiateur rédox. Un recyclage rédox est déclenché pour de très faibles concentrations d'analyte dans un mode de travail I sur les électrodes de travail polarisées comme anode et cathode. Le courant qui s'écoule alors est amplifié par le recyclage rédox et est proportionnel à la concentration d'analyte. En cas de concentrations d'analyte plus élevées, un mode de travail II est lancé par modification automatique de la polarisation d'électrodes, mode de travail selon lequel la cellule de mesure travaille en tant que détecteur ampérométrique connu avec le médiateur rédox. Ce procédé se caractérise ainsi par un seuil de détection très bas et une plage de mesure dynamique très étendue.

Abstract: An improved electronic LCD backlighting inverter circuit for high frequency operation under low frequency pulse width modulation (PWM) for dimming control. The improved electronic LCD backlighting inverter is based on a voltage-fed push-pull LLC resonant inverter circuit configuration including a resonant inductor (L), magnetizing inductance of an output transformer (L), and resonant capacitor (C). For large values of magnetizing inductance the LLC circuit effectively becomes an LC resonant circuit. By synchronizing the high frequency switching signal and the low frequency modulation frequency using logic control circuitry, a wide dimming range and higher efficiency are achieved under PWM control.
