Abstract: The cartridge has a movable temperature control unit (6H) whose position in a cover (2) determines passages between inlet orifices and a mixing chamber. A thermostatic unit (6E) is sensitive to the temperature of mixed water in the chamber to adjust its position. Check valves are arranged between inlet orifices and an inlet passage in the chamber and avoid the flow of water from the chamber towards orifices. An independent claim is also included for a water distribution installation including a thermostatic cartridge.

Abstract: A shock detection circuit (104) has shock detection resistors (141, 143) which detect counter electromotive force of a step motor (105) generated by a shock. The counter electromotive force is amplified by a waveform shaping circuit for chopper amplification (118) with a predetermined cycle and a chopper width. Even a slight shock can be detected. Inverters (145, 146) compare shock detection signals (S22, S23) to a threshold value and detect a shock when the threshold value is exceeded. A control circuit (102) supplies a lock pulse to the step motor (105) via signal lines (AA, BB) upon detection of a shock and puts brake on rotation of a rotor (162) so as to prevent the time of a second hand (106) from getting out of order.

Abstract: An apparatus for connecting together two sections of tubing using a laser. A pair of fixtures hold the two tubing sections in opposed, end-to-end relation so that axially facing surfaces of the tube sections at the ends are free from exposure to a surrounding environment. A photodiode laser emits an electromagnetic beam at a separate sheet of material positioned between the axial surfaces at the ends of the tubing sections. The sheet absorbs energy of the electromagnetic beam. The pair of fixtures move the two tubing sections to bring the respective axially facing surfaces of the two tubing sections into engagement with the sheet and after the axially facing surfaces of the two sections are brought into engagement with the sheet, the electromagnetic beam is directed onto the sheet for welding the two sections of tubing together.

Abstract: A method of displaying medical data, particularly data representative of the condition of patients suffering from chronic medical conditions such as asthma, diabetes and hypertension. The display consists of two graphical elements, one of which indicates the current value of a parameter indicative of the patient's condition, this being displayed against another graphical element which represents a model of normality for that patient. The graphical element indicating the current condition may be, for example, a needle, against a scale which is constructed according to the patient-specific model of normality. This is particularly advantageous in the case of displays which have a small display area, such as mobile telephones and PDAs. Other forms of display are disclosed, such as histograms with the display being dynamically colour-coded and auto-scaled, or displays including limits which may vary. Another form of display is also disclosed which illustrates administrations of a pharmacological agent and corresponding measurements of the patient's condition, with a visual link such as colour-coding linking the administration to the corresponding condition measurement. For example several days of insulin administration dosages may be displayed alongside several days of blood glucose measurements, with the administrations colour-coded to the corresponding blood glucose measurement, to assist the patient in determining whether the insulin administration is stably controlling their condition.

Abstract: A programmable data processing apparatus having a bit-plane extraction operation is described, for extracting data from a value of, for example, 32 bits containing 4 bytes, 1a to 1d. Each byte 1a to 1d comprises 8 bits, (a0 - a7, b0 - b7, c0 - c7 and d0 - d7, respectively). The bit-plane extraction operation retrieves one bit from each of these bytes, for example the second bit (a1, b1, c1, d1), which is specified by an argument. The operation involves concatenating these bits (a1, b1, c1, d1) and returning a result value 5. Depending on the particular data processing application, the result value may be bit-reversed to provide a result value 7 (for example, if a bit-reversal is required to deal with endianness, or other reasons). The bit-plane extraction operation can be used as a pre-processing operation in data processing operations such as "sum-of-absolute-differences" in the processing of video data. <IMAGE> <IMAGE>

Abstract: A composition for topical application to a part of the body comprises a vasodilator, for example glyceryl trinitrate, as active ingredient dissolved in a blend of volatile and non-volatile solvents of different solvating capacities for the vasodilator. The vasoldator is present in the composition at a concentration at or slightly below saturation, whereby evaporation of the volatile solvent in use will maintain the vasodilator at saturated or super-saturated concentrations in the residue, whereby the vasodilator will become saturated or supersaturated in the solvent remaining and, as the active ingredient passes through the skin and is absorbed in the bloodstream, and thus becomes depleted in the residual composition, continuing evaporation of volatile solvent will maintain the active ingredient substantially at saturation or supersaturation level in the residual composition throughout the major part of the absorption phase, thereby maximising absorption levels but at a moderate dosage level.

Abstract: A method for semi-quantitatively or quantitatively detecting the presence of a microbe in a sample is provided. The method utilizes a test dye that undergoes a detectable color change in the presence of one or more microbes. For example, in one embodiment, the test dye is a solvatochromic dye (e.g., Reichardt's dye) that responds to differences in polarity between microbe components (e.g., cell membrane, cytoplasm, etc.) and the environment outside the cell. Alternatively, other mechanisms may be wholly or partially responsible for the interaction between the dye and the microbe, such as acid-base reactions, redox reactions, and so forth. Regardless, the color of the test dye may be compared to the color of a control dye, wherein the color of the control dye corresponds to a known microbe concentration.

Abstract: Air mattresses primarily intended for hospitals, long-term care facilities and in-home use are described. The mattress includes multiple foam layers and an air sector having multiple resilient foam filled air cylinders. The air cylinders at different locations are filled with foam having different density (firmness); some are filled with multiple layers of foam. Each air cylinder has an air inlet connected to the atmosphere by an inlet valve and an air outlet. The air outlets are either connected to one or more restricted internal check outlet valves in a non-powered air mattress, or connected to a pump via hose connectors in a powered air mattress. The restricted outflow of air from the cylinders in a non-powered air mattress allows the patient to slowly settle into the supportive foam layers for optimal interface pressure distribution. The air cylinders re-inflate when the patient adjusts position or is vacated from the surface.
