Inventor: SAUER FRANK
IPC: B60R21/20
Filed: 1999-06-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a steering wheel comprising a steering wheel body (30), an airbag unit (3), a detent connection for fixing the airbag unit to the steering wheel body, a contact device having a first and a second contact (8, 9) that are short-circuited for triggering an electric function element, especially an electric horn (24), when the airbag unit is moved in a direction toward the steering wheel body by a pressure exerted on said airbag unit. According to the invention, one of the detent elements of the detent device is, at least in part, electrically conductive and simultaneously forms the first contact (8) of the contact device. When an airbag is fastened according to the  floating horn principle, the number of required parts is further reduced and it is possible to easily and securely fix the airbag unit to the steering wheel without the use of tools.

Abstract: An active implantable medical device, in particular a pacemaker, defibrillator and/or cardiovertor of the multisite type, capable of detecting an induced tachycardia. Such a device is to be coupled to electrodes placed in at least two cardiac sites of the same cardiac chamber type, e.g., at least two ventricular sites, right and left, at least two atrial sites, right and left, or at least two sites of the same cavity (atria or ventricular). The device has a cardiac signal collection circuit to detect a depolarization potential, and a stimulation circuit to apply stimulation pulses to at least certain of the aforesaid sites. The device monitors the heart rate, detects suspicion of an induced tachycardia condition, operating in response to the heart rate and determines the presence of an induced tachycardia condition if the heart rate exceeds a predetermined threshold for a length of time greater than a predetermined threshold, and temporarily modifies the operation of the device in the event of the detection of an induced tachycardia condition to cause the induced tachycardia condition to disappear.

Abstract: The invention relates to: A method of utilizing the
time span between a request (101) for first pieces of
information from a user unit (1; 11) to an information
server (5) via a node (2) in a network and the
reception of said first pieces of information (108) at
the user unit (1; 11). The invention further comprises
a computer readable medium, a system and a software
program related to the method. The object of the
present invention is to disclose an alternative method
of presenting additional information to a user during
the time span between a user's request for information
from an information server and the reception of said
information. The problem is solved in that second
pieces of information (102, 104, 105, 106) are
transmitted from the node (2) to the user unit (1; 11)
in the time span between the reception at the node (2)
of the request (101) from the user unit (1; 11) for
first pieces of information, and the transmission to
the user unit (1; 11) of the first pieces of
information (108) received at the node (2) from the
information server (5). This has the advantage that
additional information may be presented to a user in a
situation where he or she is awaiting requested

Title: Intonations musicales a echelle bicamerale et enregistrements effectues a partir de telles intonations
Inventor: PYE T WILFRED
IPC: G10C3/12
Filed: 2000-01-19
Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à divers instruments à tonalités en escalier conçus, en ce qui concerne les fréquences générées, conformément à un nouveau système d'accord musical (Fig. 2). Les organes de sélection des tons sont disposés selon un ensemble distinct de spécifications d'intervalles en comparaison des organes de sélection de tons d'un instrument fabriqué de manière conforme à l'état antérieur de la technique pour émettre les fréquences communes du tempérament égal à 12 tons. De manière à générer les tons bicaméraux, le système d'accord préféré utilise deux séries différentes de quintes parfaites pythagoriciennes, séparées par un intervalle de référence connu. Relativement aux douze tons, le nouveau système d'accord est principalement conçu pour améliorer les mauvaises tierces majeures et mineures et parfaire les quintes légèrement diminuées. On utilise sensiblement moins de tons par octave que le nombre requis par l'intonation juste standard. L'invention se rapporte à diverses modifications apportées aux instruments existants, ainsi qu'à un nouveau clavier multitonal enharmonique.
