Title: Ostomy coupling
Inventor: STEER PETER LESLIE
IPC: F16L37/084
Filed: 1995-01-19
Granted: 2006-01-03
Abstract: An ostomy coupling has one coupling element 10 attachable to a medical grade pad and a second coupling element 30 attached to a bag or pouch. In such a coupling a stretchable ring or wall 36 can be shifted ("snapped") by manual pressure between a locking position e.q. Figure 4 wherein the two coupling elements are locked together and an unlocking position e.g. Figure 5 wherein the two coupling elements can be separated to permit removal of an ostomy bag attached to one or other of the coupling elements.

Title: Quantization of input vectors with and without rearrangement of vector elements of a candidate vector
Inventor: SERIZAWA MASAHIRO
IPC: G10L19/08
Filed: 1995-04-20
Granted: 1999-10-12
Abstract: For quantizing input vectors into output codes with reference to quantization vectors with reduction of a memory capacity, a vector quantizer device comprises a rearranging unit (21, 23) between a codebook circuit (17) preliminarily loaded, in accordance with codebook indexes, with code vectors selected from the quantization vectors to produce at least one candidate vector in response to a current index and a distance calculator (15) for calculating, between each input vector and comparison vectors given by the candidate vector, distance values for supply to an evaluation circuit (19) for producing a selected index indicative of one of the comparison vectors that minimizes the distance values and for successively producing the output codes with the selected index used as each output code without or with addition of a rearrangement index.      When the rearrangement index is and is not added, the rearranging circuit produces the candidate vector in each comparison vector as an unchanged vector and as a rearranged vector in which vector elements of the candidate vector are rearranged, respectively. The rearranging unit may rearrange the candidate vector in compliance with a single predetermined rule or with rules preliminarily stored in a rearrangement table circuit (23) in accordance with table indexes with one of the rules delivered to a rearranging circuit (21) in response to the rearrangement index.

Abstract: An automatic mirror positioning system is intended  for  tractor-trailer  vehicles  such  as  a tractor provided with a semi-trailer.   The tractor includes a fifth wheel used to couple the trailer to the  tractor.     The  system  comprises  an  angle detection unit to measure a relative angular pivot between the tractor and the trailer, a computer for interpreting data received from the detection unit, and a mirror  assembly which  includes  a rotatable mirror which is  operated by the  signals  received from the computer, whereby the system modifies the positions of the exterior rearview mirrors of the tractor  in view of  the  relative position  of  the tractor and the trailer in order that the driver can view the sides and the rear corners of the trailer for any angle defined between the tractor and the trailer.    The  detection  unit  which is  installed adjacent the fifth wheel comprises a pair of spring-biased vertical discs which contact the underside of the trailer so as to rotate whenever there  is  a relative angular pivot between the tractor and the trailer.  As these discs are mounted on the shaft of a step motor, any rotation of the discs will cause the step motor to rotate and to transmit direction and  displacement impulses  to  the  computer  which after processing  the data on the basis  of  other known parameters will cause the step motor of each mirror  assembly  to  rotate  in  an  established direction and for a calculated angle the respective mirror thereof.

Granted: 2000-08-08
Abstract: A dynamic combined power control and forward error correction control (FEC) technique for mobile radio systems which illustratively decreases tile power consumed by wireless transmitters and increases the number of simultaneous connections which may be supported thereby. Individual transmitter-receiver pairs may adaptively determine the minimal power and FEC required to satisfy specified quality-of-service (QOS) constraints. Specifically, in accordance with an illustrative embodiment of the present invention, a first portion of a signal is encoded with a first code to generate a first encoded signal portion. Then, the first encoded signal portion is transmitted with a first power level. Next, parameter data is received, wherein the parameter data is representative of one or more characteristics of a received signal portion having been received by the receiver, the received signal portion having been based on the transmitted first encoded signal portion. A second code and a second power level is then determined based on the received parameter data, and a second portion of the signal is encoded with the second code to generate a second encoded signal portion. Finally, the second encoded signal portion is transmitted with the second power level.

Title: Stimulateur cardiaque asservi avec detection d'impedance filtree
Inventor: PRUTCHI DAVID
IPC: A61N1/365
Filed: 1995-11-13
Granted: 2000-11-07
Abstract: Stimulateur cardiaque asservi et implantable, sensible aux variations d'impédance du coeur indiquant le volume d'éjection systolique, où les signaux parasites communs, tels qu'électrogrammes intracardiaques, signaux myo-électriques, artefacts de stimulation et potentiel consécutif à la stimulation sont éliminés de la mesure de l'impédance. Le stimulateur détecte diverses impédances cardiaques en provoquant la décharge d'un condensateur actif qui traverse une électrode implantée dans le coeur pour atteindre une deuxième électrode ou le boîtier du stimulateur. Le condensateur actif décharge pendant une courte période présélectionnée, après quoi la tension résiduelle du condensateur est mesurée. Pour que l'erreur soit minimale lors de la mesure de la tension déchargée par le condensateur actif, le stimulateur peut faire varier dynamiquement la durée présélectionnée de la décharge. Avant cette décharge, le stimulateur échantillonne la situation électrique du coeur ou de l'organisme du patient entre les deux électrodes en chargeant un condensateur passif. La tension échantillonnée du condensateur passif est soustraite de la tension résiduelle du condensateur actif, la tension résultante servant à régler le rythme du stimulateur.

Abstract: A device for use with an oil lamp to allow the diffusion of the scent of a perfume. The device has a circular vessel and a central tubular element extending longitudinally through the center of the vessel. A wick is inserted through the central tubular element. The vessel is closed at the bottom and open at the top, defining a perfume-holding area. In a first and second embodiment, the device also has an outwardly projecting lip along the circumference of the vessel at the top thereof. In a third embodiment, the vessel has a diameter that is greater than the diameter of the opening of the oil lamp, and is provided with a resilient member at the bottom of the central tubular element. In use, a user pours a given amount of perfume in the perfume-holding area. The device is then placed on the lip of the oil lamp and over the opening and the wick is lit. The heat generated by the flame of the wick heats the device, which in turns heats the perfume, thereby releasing a pleasing smell.
