Patent DE-69008973-D1 (DE)

Abstract: A system and method for calibrating signals provided by individual cells in a photodetector array scanned by light originating at a low-cost variable light source and reflected from a subject to be replicated in digital form by processing photodetector cell signals in a manner so that individual cell signals are corrected to compensate for fluctuations in source light. The system and method is particularly applicable to a color balanced photodetector array in which individual photodetectors are arranged in sets with each set having a variable number of rows oriented in a direction transverse to the direction of scan and columns parallel to the direction of scan. The invention is practiced by exposing the first few photodetectors in each row to the full spectrum of visible light reflected from a white reference patch. During processing, as the photodetector signals are sequentially transferred, to a processor, the signals provided by the cells exposed to the white reference are compared with a fixed value to obtain a calibration factor. As the signals develop by cells in the same set but as a result of exposure to light reflected from the subject image, those signals are multiplied by the calibration factor so that the process signals are corrected for variations in source light on a real time basis.

Abstract: The invention relates to a coupling for the releasable connection of a laparoscopic instrument working with movable parts with a grip for actuation of the instrument. The invention is to permit a coupling between the instrument and the grip which is of simple design, safe to handle, easily releasable and closeable. According to the invention, a first locking element (22) is provided at the proximal end of a push rod (20) guided in the instrument tube (10) and a second locking element (12) at the proximal end of the instrument tube (10). A first recess (42) is provided at the distal end of the adjustment element (40) in the grip for the lateral insertion of the first locking element (22) and a second recess (32) at the distal end of the housing (30) for the second locking element (12). The housing (30) is opened so wide laterally in the zone of the coupling that the instrument tube (10) and the push rod (20) guided therein with their locking elements (12, 22) are laterally insertable into the housing and the associated recesses. Through the insertion of the first locking element (22) into the first recess (42), the push rod (20) is coupled to the adjustment element (40), and the insertion of the second locking element (12) into the second recess (32) secures the instrument tube (10) against axial movement with respect to the housing (30) of the grip.

Abstract: A guidewire replacement device having an elongated catheter shaft with an inner lumen extending within the catheter shaft, a proximal guidewire port spaced at least 1 cm from the distal end of the catheter which is in fluid communication with the inner lumen and a distal guidewire port in the distal end of the catheter which is also in fluid communication with the inner lumen. The proximal end of an in-place guidewire is inserted through the distal guidewire port and advanced through the inner lumen until the proximal end of the guidewire extends through the proximal guidewire port. The exchange device is advanced over the guidewire until the distal end of the exchange device is seated within the proximal guidewire port in the readily exchangeable dilatation catheter. With the distal end of the exchange device well seated within the proximal guidewire port of the dilatation catheter, the in-place guidewire can be withdrawn from the patient. A replacement guidewire is advanced through the inner lumen of the exchange device until it exits the distal guidewire port of the exchange device into the inner guidewire receiving lumen of the dilatation catheter. Once the replacement guidewire is properly placed, the exchange device can then be withdrawn from the patient.

Abstract: The articles (P) to be coated are passed into a tubular duct (2) into which a bed (M) of loose coating material is also fed. The duct, which is preferably inclined with its input end (2a) in a higher position than its output end (2b), is then subjected to an angular rotational movement back and forth about its principal axis (X2). This movement causes the articles (P) to roll sideways on the bed (M) of coating material as they descend along the duct (2), whilst the material is also thrown onto the articles (P) being coated, particularly as a result of the sudden changing of the sense of rotation of the duct (2). The preferred application is for the coating of food products such as confectionery products. <IMAGE>

A deflector is provided which can freely oscillate in a transverse direction between a first end position wherein the deflector lies completely outside the jet and a second end position wherein the deflector is immersed to the maximum extent in the jet so as to draw part of its energy. A support is provided for oscillably mounting the deflector on the spout to transfer the energy drawn from the jet to the spout to promote a stepwise movement thereof about the second rotation axis. The deflector has at least one main surface having a curved and convex shape suitable to laterally enter the jet while remaining substantially aligned with the jet, so as to generate a negative pressure force tending to move the deflector towards the interior of the jet upon initial oscillation and during steady-state oscillatory operation. The deflector has a secondary surface that is substantially flat and forms with respect to the curved main surface a solid angle that is relatively large so as to generate a reaction force with a component which is opposite to the negative pressure force produced on the curved main surface and tending to expel the deflector away from the jet thus starting and maintaining the steady-state operation.
