Patent EP-1169989-A3 (EP)
Inventor: VON SCHROETER PHILIP
IPC: A61G7/10
Filed: 2001-06-27
Abstract: An invalid positioning device comprising a support structure (10, 11, 12, 13), a lifting
element (14) which is angularly displaceable about a main horizontal axis relative to the support
structure (10, 11, 12, 13), and a power operated mechanism (31) for pivoting the lifting
element (14) about the said main horizontal axis. The power operated mechanism (31) is
arranged such that the torque applied by the power operated mechanism decreases as the lifting
element moves away from one extreme position and increases again as the lifting element
approaches its other extreme position and such that the angular speed of the lifting element
increases as it moves away from one extreme position and decreases as it approaches its other
extreme position.

Abstract: Clip arrangement for fixing a strip, in particular a decorative strip in a vehicle,
with a retaining part (1) and a snap-on part (2), wherein the retaining part has a
receiving slot (13) with an upper guide (14) and a lower guide (17), into which
receiving slot (13) there projects obliquely at least one latching finger (15) having a
latching opening (16) at its free end, wherein the snap-on part (2) also has at least one
projection (23) with a plurality of latching lugs (24) which can latch with a latching
opening (16) when the projection (23) is inserted into the receiving slot (13). Each
latching finger (15) is designed and directed in such a way that it can gently yield to
the latching lugs (24) when the projection (23) is inserted into the receiving slot (13),
but prevents the snap-on part (2) from being withdrawn after the latching lugs (24)
have been latched into latching openings (16).

Abstract: An optical fiber cable includes ripcords (1, 1') that are oriented in particular locations
with reference to radial strength members (2, 2') and any armor overlap included in a housing
for optical fibers. The ripcords are spaced 180 degrees from each other and preferably 90
degrees from the armor overlap region. Color coded or marked ripcords are also placed
adjacent to RSMs, with color coding or other marking on external surfaces of the housing to
indicate a pull direction for respective ripcords. The ripcords may be extruded with the RSM
into a jacket housing or disposed in a grooved section formed into the RSM. Pairs of RSMs
may also be disposed on opposite sides of a ripcord to protect the ripcord from being
accidentally severed by cutting instruments during servicing of the cable.

Abstract: A vascular stent having one or more channels in the outer surface. The channel(s)
provide increased flexibility, enhanced perfusion, increased chronic positional stability, and
convenient dispensing of a medication. Preferably the stent is machined into a mesh-like pattern
and the channel(s) are machined into the stent elements of the pattern. The channels may be
oriented in a variety of ways. Parallel orientation tends to provide greater enhancement of
perfusion whereas perpendicular orientation provides differential flexibility. For greater control
of differential flexibility, the channel may be further machined in the stent element, producing a
regain of greater flexibility.

Abstract: A loudspeaker system containing wave-shaping sound chambers with approximately rectangular inlets and outlets of substantially the same size that are used to flatten or control the curvature of the acoustic wavefronts contained within system waveguides. Control of the degree of curvature of the wavefront enables the development of a wide variety of multi-waveguide arrays. The sound chambers are placed between a waveguides and a flattened conical horns of secondary waveguides. The sound chambers transform the curvature of the typical fan shaped wavefront that results from a conical horn throat into a wavefront that approximates a planar or curved rectangular ribbon of sound.

Abstract: A canister includes an adsorbent, an air layer and an
air hole. An ECU obtains a physical status quantity Mgair
representing the vapor stored state of the air layer, a
physical status quantity Mgcan representing the fuel vapor
stored state of the adsorbent, and a physical status quantity
Fvptnk representing the vapor generating state in the fuel
tank. The ECU then estimates a total vapor flow rate Fvpall
purged to an intake system of the engine by using a physical
model related to the vapor behaviors. The physical model is
based on the obtained physical status quantities. The ECU
corrects the fuel supply amount to the engine according to
the estimated flow rate Fvpall. As a result, the air-fuel
ratio feedback control is readily prevented from being
influenced by the fuel vapor purging.

Abstract: For laser sources comprising a regenerative amplifier or other
single- or multi-pass amplifier setups a suitable
substantially smooth laser diode pump spot is obtained from a
laser diode array source or multiple arrays, by imaging each
single emitter of the array or the arrays without focusing
into substantially the same spot at the laser medium. 
     Due to the absence of focusing a comparatively low aspect
ratio diode laser beam is achieved with a comparatively low
intensity of the spot, which prevents thermal damages and
other problems caused by higher intensities in the
regenerative amplifier setup.

Abstract: First layout information for printing-specific photograph data obtained by
defining a layout of a print is combined with a recipe file, and an image conversion
process is performed on the printing-specific photograph data, based on the combined
recipe file. Second layout information associated with the printing-specific photograph
data subjected to a CMYK conversion is created. Layout data in which the first layout
information is replaced with the second layout information is used as print data. This
provides the print subjected to an image correction process suitable for the photograph
arranged for the layout and an individual image correction process required for each
subject of a photograph, and improves processing efficiency. 
     An output device including a RIP processor further includes an image
conversion processor for creating a recipe file and performing a CMYK conversion
process and a correction process on the printing-specific photograph data represented in
an RGB color system, based on the recipe file. If color reproduction is improper as a
result of proof printing, the image conversion processor of the output device sets a recipe
file for the printing-specific photograph data again, and then performs the image
conversion process again and an output process. This provides suitable print data
without the need to returning to the process in a layout data generation device to modify
the entire layout data.

Here, the lower barrier layer is subjected to a sputter-etching process employing argon gas at an etching amount of approximately 5nm, so that a part of the lower barrier layer deposited on the bottom surface of the via hole is at least partially deposited on the lower part of the sidewall surface of the via hole.
