Abstract: Pumping mechanisms for performing peritoneal dialysis and the like employ a pumping mechanism comprising a diaphragm (59) that operate in response to applied fluid pressure. Flexible tubing is attached to the pumping mechanism for carrying liquid to and from the patient's peritoneal cavity. An actuating station for pumping mechanism receives the pumping mechanism, and attached tubing. A pressure transfer element (104) conveys fluid pressure to the diaphragm (59) for moving liquid through the cassette. An occluder element (138,144) contacts and crimps closed the tubing attached to the cassette. A first reservoir (128) inflates with positive fluid pressure for contacting the pressure transfer element (104) to hold it in operative contact against the diaphragm (59). A second reservoir inflates with positive fluid pressure for contacting the occluding element (138,144) to hold it away from crimping contact with the tubing. At least one of the first (128) and second (152) reservoirs also transports fluid pressure to the pressure transfer element for conveyance to the diaphragm.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for adjusting the smooth engagement of a gear ratio shift wherein a planetary train (7) is engaged in direct gear by the action of centrifugal counter-weights (29) locking a clutch (18). The clutch release can be derived either from a hydraulic actuator (18) or from axial reactive forces of the ring helical toothing, reaction which is transmitted by an axial stop (B2). In order to prevent the clutch (18) from being suddenly locked by the action of the counter-weights (29) in particular when the torque to be transmitted quickly disappears, a control unit (453) detects the instantaneous ratio (VE/VS), and generates measured back pressure in the actuator (45) while the counter-weights (29) are locking the clutch (18). The invention is useful for adjusting the smooth engagement of gear ratio shifts.

Abstract: A Cu film (30) which is to serve as a conformal mask is formed on a substrate (20) and apertures (30a) for forming via-holes and alignment marks (30b) are formed on the Cu film. The positions of the alignment marks (30b) are measured by a camera (82) to determine the position of the substrate (30). A laser beam is applied to and around the positions of the apertures (30a) to form apertures (26a) for via-holes. Since the positional precision of the apertures for via-holes depends upon the positional precision of the apertures (30a) of the Cu film (30a), even if the positional precision of the laser beam application is low, the via-holes can be formed at proper positions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a brake force booster for automotive vehicles which includes a booster housing whose interior space is subdivided by a movable wall into a working chamber and a vacuum chamber, and a control housing which carries the movable wall and in which a control valve is arranged for controlling a pressure differential that acts upon the movable wall, the said control valve being operable by an operating rod by way of a valve piston and by an electromagnet. According to the present invention, the brake force booster is characterized in that the electromagnet is actuatable in dependence on the relative displacement between the valve piston and the control housing detected by a sensor. This arrangement makes possible a very simple control of a brake assist function because the signal of the sensor can be used both for the activation and the deactivation of the electromagnet. This means that the brake assist function can be triggered and/or terminated only on the basis of the signals of one single sensor.

Abstract: The invention relates to a drive rod fitting comprising a corner deflection element for drive rods which are guided in a groove for receiving the fitting, which groove runs around the sash frame. The drive rods are joined together at the sash corner via a deflection member (15) which is guided in an angular guide channel (1) situated in the groove designed for receiving the fitting. An external sash corner covering element which covers the groove for receiving the fitting can be joined to the shaped sash frame and the corner deflection element can be fastened to the sides of said groove in a positive and/or non-positive fit via a fixing device. The aim of the invention is to produce a corner deflection element in a simple manner and to simplify the subsequent assembly of the drive rod fitting. It also aims for the attachment to be sufficiently strong, using the simplest possible measures, and for it to be possible to attach the fixing device to corner deflection elements which do not have an only laterally open angular space but only have a cover rail assigned to one leg of the sash. To this end the positive and/or non-positive fit is achieved by a fixing device (20) positioned at the level of the guide channel (1).

Abstract: A proxy server operative to accept plug-in filters to perform forward and reverse filtering between a client process and a server process. In accordance with one aspect of the invention, a method of filtering information includes the steps of receiving a request by the proxy server from a client. The proxy server identifies a Uniform Resource Locator (URL) of a server process in the request and compares that URL against filter rules previously defined to the system. In the event the URL satisfies one of the filter rules, a filter servlet associated with the satisfied filter rule is used to filter the requested information. A filter servlet is a set of instructions that, when executed, filters the information. The filtered request is then used to retrieve information from a server process. Similarly, the same filtering process may be performed on a response from the server process destined for a client process.
