Patent EP-0583144-A1 (EP)
Inventor: DAVIS RICHARD E
IPC: A61B10/00
Filed: 1993-08-06
Abstract: A surgical needle with a stylet (18) selectively received within the lumen (22) of a cannula (14) is shown where establishing and maintaining a desired angular orientation between the stylet (18) and cannula (14) is achieved. The orientation may be determined in one of several ways. Preferably, a projection (74) is mounted to the cannula hub (71) which is selectively received in a recess (75) of the stylet cap (73) when the stylet (18) and cannula (14) are in the desired orientation. Alternatively, a pair of flexible arms (76) may be mounted to the stylet cap (73) wherein detents (84) on the distal ends of the flexible arms are selectively received within complementary depressions (86) on the cannula hub (71) when the stylet (18) and cannula (14) are in the desired orientation. Also, a longitudinal rib (66) on the stylet cap (73) and a projection (70) on the cannula hub (71) can be visually inspected or can be felt by the user to determine the orientation. Finally, a projection (70) from the cannula hub (71) may be selectively received within a slot (72) on the stylet cap (73) to ensure proper alignment of the stylet and cannula.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for non-contact determination of the moisture content in moving or stationary mass of fibrous products such as wood is provided. The method comprises irradiation of a substance with infra-red radiation which is intense enough to introduce microstructural modifications of the substance surface. The moisture content of the substance is determined by analyzing density of these surface modifications. It has been found, that an optical beam may be used in order to quantify the density of the surface modifications. The surface is scanned with the optical beam two (2) times. The first scanning is done prior to the infra-red irradiation; the second scanning is done following the infra-red irradiation. The invented method allows for non-contact, rapid and continuous in-line measurements of the moisture content.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé amélioré de production d'alcool méthylique (méthanol) à partir du méthane à l'aide de deux phases de réaction produites en tandem. Dans la première phase de réaction, deux réactions chimiques se produisent simultanément: a) le perchloroéthylène (CCl2CCl2) est oxychloruré avec du chlorure d'hydrogène et de l'oxygène afin d'obtenir de l'hexachloréthane (CCl3CCl3) et de l'eau, et b) le chlorure de méthyle (CH3Cl) est hydrolysé avec de l'eau pour produire de l'alcool méthylique et du chlorure d'hydrogène. Dans la seconde phase de réaction, le méthane est chloruré avec de l'hexachloréthane pour produire du chlorure de méthyle, du chlorure d'hydrogène et du perchloroéthylène. En recyclant le chlorure de méthyle, le chlorure d'hydrogène et le perchloroéthylène régénéré obtenu dans la seconde phase, en les réintroduisant à la première phase, on peut effectuer le procédé en mode équilibré, c'est-à-dire que la consommation interne de chlorure d'hydrogène est en quantité égale à sa production.

IPC: B41F19/06
Filed: 1993-06-23
Abstract: Described are a process and an apparatus for transferring prints (18, 20) from a support (16) on to a substrate (10), wherein the support (16) is transported together with the substrate (10) through a station in which the substrate (10) having print portions (12) in succession in the direction of transportation movement is provided with the prints (18, 20) in accurate register relationship. This procedure uses on the one hand a substrate (10) having at least two rows of print portions (112) side-by-side transversely to the direction of transportation movement and on the other hand a support (16) which in the direction of transportation movement has between the prints (18) for print portions (12) disposed in a row one after the other in the direction of transportation movement at least one respective additional print (20). According to the invention there are provided means, by means of which only certain prints (18, 20) can be respectively transferred selectively fron the support (16) on to the substrate (10) in the station. After leaving the station the support (16) is released frmm the substrate (10) and according to the number of additional prints (18) provided between two prints (18) for print portions (12) occurring in succession in the direction of transportation movement, fed at least one further time to the station, in which case the support (16) is displaced laterally by the transverse spacing between the adjacent rows of print portions and in the direction of transportation movement approximately by the spacing between directly successive prints (18, 20).

Date Dec. 23, 1993A solar thermal cell must include such a means of stopping solar radiation that no radiation is reemitted. Known art black, heat-binding absorbing surfaces are of this kind. The collecting of solar radiation energy should take place using a liquid jacket covering the entire southfacing pane of the roof, the said liquid jacket being implemented by means of a relatively inexpensive, well-sealed structure that should also be capable of withstanding strains such as that caused by snow. Underneath solar thermal cell's intermediate spaces (5) for the heatcollecting liquid, there is a dark-surfaced mineral wool board (1) stopping solar radiation. The intermediate space (5) may be located between two light-admitting membranes (2 and 3) and overlying there may be a light-admitting sheet of corrugated fiberglass (4). Between the membranes (2 and 3) or equivalent there may be ridges (6) forming intermediate spaces (5) between the mebranes (2 and 3). The intermediate spaces (5) may be arranged in tiers; e.g. three tiers with uppermost tier being a heatinsulating air space and the lowermost tier containing a mineral wool board (1).

Abstract: Presbyopia and hyperopia are treated by a method which increases the amplitude of accommodation by increasing the effective working distance of the ciliary muscle in the presbyopic eye. The effective working distance of the ciliary muscle can be increased by expanding the sclera in the region of the ciliary body. This expansion may be accomplished by suturing to the sclera in the region of the ciliary body a relatively rigid band having a diameter slightly greater than that of the sclera in that region. The scleral expansion band (102) comprises anterior (108) and posterior (106) rims and a web (104) extending between the rims, the anterior rim having a smaller diameter than the posterior rim. The band may be provided with one or more holes (110) to assist in suturing.

Abstract: Dans un système de transmission d'énergie, on détecte une oscillation en multipliant la tension ou le courant f(t) par un signal provenant d'un oscillateur oscillant à une fréquence à laquelle on peut s'attendre à des oscillations. Le résultat est échantillonné avec une fréquence qui est supérieure à celle de l'oscillateur et les derniers échantillonnages correspondant à au moins une période entière de la fréquence de l'oscillateur sont successivement additionnés. Les sommations successives sont multipliées par le signal d'oscillateur et on obtient un signal de régulation. L'analyse de ces sommations produit un diagnostic concernant la nécessité d'une correction d'atténuation et dans ce cas ledit signal de régulation est connecté à un dispositif de régulation qui le déconnecte lorsqu'il n'est plus nécessaire. On peut utiliser cette invention pour éliminer les oscillations apparaissant dans des câbles de transmission de courant continu haute tension et pour éliminer les oscillations hyposynchrones dans des réseaux de courant alternatif équipés de turbines à gaz et à vapeur.
