Abstract: La présente invention concerne un muscle artificiel à commande hydraulique utilisé dans des dispositifs orthopédiques, des dispositifs prosthétiques ou en tant qu'actionneur pour d'autres applications dans des dispositifs médicaux ou dans des robots. Un fluide actif est pompé entre deux cellules extensibles (2, 10) contenant du fluide, qui constituent des éléments actifs complémentaires du muscle artificiel. Le besoin de recourir à un réservoir de stockage se trouve ainsi supprimé, ce qui permet d'obtenir un dispositif autonome à force efficace. Chacun des modes de réalisation préférés de la présente invention comprend une ou plusieurs cellules extensibles (2, 10) contenant du fluide, qui sont définies par au moins une paroi souple (4). Les parois souples (4, 12) sont conçues de façon à présenter des propriétés élastiques limitées à des directions d'extension et de contraction prédéfinies.

Title: Ring spinning frame comprising drafting assemblies and compression devices
Inventor: KRAWIETZ STEFAN
IPC: D01H1/02
Filed: 2003-06-12
Abstract: The invention solves the task of enabling conventional drafting assemblies (1) to be retrofitted with compression devices (11). The invention provides that the punch (5) of a drafting assembly is lengthened so that it can accommodate the bearing for, e.g. a driving roller (18) of the compression devices and that a supporting piece (25) is provided on each spinning station pair. A loading lever (21), which is acted upon by the force of a spring (29) and which guides and loads the pressure roller twin (17) of a compression device is pivotally mounted inside said supporting piece. The punch (5) can be lengthened by a lengthening part (19) that can be screwed thereon. Alternatively, a correspondingly lengthened punch can be used. Another alternative consists of using a longer supporting and loading arm, which comprises an additional loading element for the pressure roller twin of the compression device. In this case, a loading device, which is held on the punch, for said pressure roller can be rendered unnecessary.

An extruded plastic tube is introduced into an open tool with main(8) and head(10) plates and cut off outside the head plates to form an opening. The main plates are closed to seal the tube base and the tube inflated via the opening before filling the container with the fluid. A closure plug(3) is inserted into the tube in the head plates and has a fluid delivery cannula at the outer end with a safety feature including a protective body which moves between forward and retracted positions. Head plates are then closed and the tube end molded to form a protective cover(5) around the cannula.  Expansion and filling of the container in the molding tool are effected simultaneously by a combined blowing and filling mandrel passing through the opening. During closure of the head plates(10) a deliberate weak point(7) is formed in the tube wall at the transition between closure plug(3) and protective cover(5). When the head plates are closed to form the cover a grip is formed to assist rotation of the cover away from the container at the weak point. The closure plug rests on a seat formed by walls of the closed main tool plates(8) adjacent to the head plates.
