Abstract: An open loop system for delivering fluid during hysteroscopic surgery. The system includes first and second fluid conduits (12, 14) in fluid communication with the uterine cavity of a patient. First and second measuring devices (26, 28) are provided for measuring the amount of fluid flowing into and out of the uterus. The measuring devices (26, 28) produce electronic signals which are communicated to a controller (30) which uses them to calculate a value reflecting the difference in in-flow and out-flow. This difference is then compared with a preset value; if the preset value is exceeded, the surgeon knows the patient is absorbing too much fluid, and the procedure may be terminated.

Abstract: A dual processor computer system with error checking that stops immediately when a discrepancy is detected between the two processors. The system includes a first processor for executing a series of instructions including input/output instructions. A second processor executes the same instructions independently of and in synchronization with the first processor. Both processors have a processor independent bus interface. All significant processor address, data, and control signals are connected to all peripheral devices by a processor independent I/O bus. A comparison circuit detects discrepancies in the operation of the two lock step processors and provides a signal that immediately stops operation of the processors when an error is detected. Each processor is connected through its associated processor independent bus interface to the comparison circuit and the first processor is also connected through its interface to the I/O bus. The I/O bus is independent of the processor type, clock rate, and peripherals chosen in the construction of the computing system. This independence allows the computing system to be upgraded with faster processors and newer peripherals, without having to redesign the error checking circuitry.

Abstract: Television tuning systems and methods employing use of ghost cancellation and antenna directionality control to produce a ghost-free television signal. The invention employs use of a antenna whose directionality can be changed to change reception quality of a received television signal, and a baseband ghost cancellation unit which can perform baseband ghost cancellation. In a first embodiment of the invention, the directionality of the antenna is changed so that a television signal of sufficient reception quality is received from which a ghost-free television signal can be produced therefrom by the baseband ghost cancellation unit. A second embodiment of the invention further employs use of a tuner, and involves controlling the directionality of the antenna and the tuning frequency of the tuner so that a tuned television signal is produced which is properly tuned and of sufficient quality that a properly tuned ghost-free television signal can be produced therefrom by the baseband ghost cancellation unit. Both of the first and second embodiments can be used to obtain the antenna directionality setting and ghost cancellation coefficients which will produce a ghost-free television signal, and the tuning frequency setting which in combination with the antenna directionality setting and ghost cancellation coefficients will produce a properly tuned ghost-free television signal. A third embodiment of the invention further employs use of a storage device for storing the antenna directionality setting, (tuning frequency setting) and possibly, the ghost cancellation coefficients which enable production of a (properly tuned) ghost-free television signal.

Abstract: The invention concerns a method for making smart cards by rolling. A first synthetic sheet (1) is first smoothed by hot pressing against a first smoothing plate (4). Likewise a second synthetic sheet (2) is smoothed against a second smoothing plate (5). Without being unstuck from their smoothing plates, these two sheets are rolled with other layers (3, 6, 7), said synthetic sheets (1, 2) serving as external layers. One of the smoothing plates may comprise a three-dimensional pattern to be relief printed on the synthetic sheet. The rolling is carried out by cold pressing the different layers (1, 6, 3, 7, 2) which the laminated card comprises between the two smoothing plates (4, 5). After being rolled, different cards with adapted dimensions can be cut out from the laminated sheets. The invention is advantageous in that the same plates (4, 5) are used for the hot pressing and the cold rolling. The external surface of the synthetic sheets (1, 2) thus remains protected between these two operations and the cards have better inherent flatness.

Date Sep. 18, 1997An opto-electronic scale reading apparatus includes a scale 10 and a readhead 14 movable one relative to another. The readhead produces a pair of quadrature pulses which enable the generation of an incremental count corresponding to the displacement of the readhead 14 relative to a reference mark 80. The reference mark 80 is a permanent magnet mounted on the scale substrate inside a non-ferromagnetic casing 90. A pair of differential Hall sensors 62A,B within the readhead, and associated processing circuitry generate a step-change ZERO pulse when the readhead 14 and scale 10 are in a particular relative position. This relative position can be adjusted to enable corresponding adjustment of the relative phase of the quadrature pulses emitted from the readhead and the ZERO pulse, by means of a ferromagnetic adjusting screw 92. Movement in the position of the screw 92 relative to the permanent magnet 80 changes the position of highest magnetic flux density in the region of the magnet, thereby altering the position of which the ZERO pulse will be emitted.

Abstract: An apparatus and method for winding tissue webs into a parent roll is disclosed which results in greater uniformity in sheet basis weight, machine direction stretch and bulk when comparing the corresponding sheet properties taken from representative locations throughout the roll. The apparatus and method includes engaging the tissue web against a reel spool with a flexible member such as a transfer belt which traverses an unsupported span between two support rolls. The web is transferred from the transfer belt to the parent roll as the parent roll is urged against the sheet/transfer belt at a point within the unsupported span. The resulting deflection of the transfer belt is detected and, in response, the reel spool position is changed to control the deflection at a desired level. Accordingly, a predetermined light nip pressure can be applied to the roll as the tissue web is wound thereon and large parent rolls of high bulk tissue can be manufactured with desired properties when unwound.

Abstract: A needless valve is described which avoids the suctioning problems of the prior needleless devices upon deactivation and which preferably provides a positive self-purging effect. The valve is self-purging at the end of an administration cycle, avoiding clogging of attached catheters or other devices, and ensures that substantially all of liquid received into the valve is delivered to the receiver. The valve is also extremely simple in design and easy to construct and assemble, since it consists of only three pieces. The valve has a base with a connector for fluid communication attachment to tubing or other device, a solid elongated fluid channeling rod, and an internal fluid flow conduit; a flexible hollow expandable and contractible plug fitting over and moveable along the rod; and a tubular housing fitting over the plug and attached to the base. When the valve is activated by insertion of a nozzle of a fluid source, the rod and plug wall cooperate so that as the plug retracts along the rod, it is stretched and its interior expanded. Upon deactivation, the plug contracts, the interior volume decreases, and the resiling plug wall forces residual fliud within the valve to be expelled through the outlet, purging the residual fluid from the valve. No negative pressure is formed, so no suctioning of blood or other fluid from a patient or receiver occurs.

Abstract: An apparatus for deploying an air bag through an automotive dash panel (12) includes an air bag door (16) integrally formed in the panel and defined by a door perimeter including a frangible edge (18) of reduced cross section. A dispenser (20) supports the air bag (24) behind the door. A metal reaction plate (28) is positioned between the air bag (24) and the door (16). When the air bag inflates, it forces the reaction plate (28) to bend around a horizontal hinge line (36). As the reaction, plate pivots it concentrates inflation force along a lower portion of the frangible door edge. This helps to predictably separate the door from the dash panel by tearing along the lower door edge and allowing the tear to propagate up two side edges. In one embodiment, the tear also propagates across an upper edge to completely separate the door from the panel. At least one, and preferably two or three tethers (50) limit how far the door can travel during air bag inflation. A stop member may be included to limit reaction plate bending. After deployment, the reaction plate remains in a position that prevents the door from returning to its original position. A retaining structure may be included to preclude at least a portion of the air bag door from tearing free of the vehicle panel. A hinge (44) may be embedded in the panel in a position spanning a portion of the door perimeter. A hollow channel may be formed into the panel along the frangible marginal edge to create a substantial strength differential with the door perimeter to promote bending along the hinge and/or to help confine tearing to the frangible marginal edge during air bag deployment.
