Inventor: GORAL DAVID
IPC: B29C45/00
Filed: 2000-12-29
Abstract: An apparatus and a method are disclosed for manufacturing an integral one-piece catheter having a tube and a hub. The method comprises feeding molten material into a mold having a mold cavity. A fluid such as a gas is injected into an inlet of the mold. This causes the cavity to eject the molten central region of the polymer through an exit channel. In one embodiment, a gas is injected into the hub portion of the cavity. In another embodiment, a gas is injected into the catheter portion of the mold. The invention also involves forming a first portion of an intravascular device using a first material in a first mold. Thereafter the first portion of the intravascular device is inserted into a second mold to form a second portion using a second material. Gas is then introduced to form a hollow channel in the second portion. The invention also involves a first portion of the mold is injected with a first material, and a second portion of the cavity is injected with a second material at or around the same time that the first material is injected into the first portion of the cavity. Gas is then introduced to form a hollow channel in the second portion. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method for synchronising frames transmitted between a radio
interface connected to a vocoder of a remote unit and a radio interface
connected to a vocoder of a fixed unit in a radio communications system.
The vocoder employs as alignment signal for decoding the frames received
from its radio interface the fixing of the position of the parity bit within a
sample taken from the signal received over the radio interface. 
     From this position, the position of the first bit of the voice frame can
be deduced, since the frame structure, i.e. the distribution of the bits within
the frame, is known beforehand.

Abstract: In a node failure detection technique at least one supervisory data processing node (1202) periodically transmits a receipt acknowledge data packet (1201, CHECK-UP MESSAGE) to each other data processing node. The supervisory data processing node determines a data processing node has failed upon failure to receive a return acknowledge data packet (1203). This acknowledge data packet preferably includes health data concerning its current health operating status. The supervisory data processing node (1202) sends a reset data packet (1201, DEVICE RESET MESSAGE) to any failed data processing node determined. If the reset does not return the data processing node to normal operation, then routing data at neighboring data processing nodes is altered to route data packets around the failed node.
