Abstract: A pitch control system characterized by a hub (12) with at least two blade-housings (2) on the hub (12) that are disposed around the hub axis (40). The blade-housings (2) have corresponding blades (1) that engage with them. The blades (1) spiral along housing-longitudinal axis (41) toward and away from the hub axis (40) about a segment of helical path to effect a change in the pitch of each blade (1). One or more elastic members (3) draw the blades (1) toward the hub axis (40), either directly or indirectly. There are pitch mechanisms (4) effective to facilitate blades to spiral around housing-longitudinal axis (41). A blade (1) will spiral away from the hub axis (40) when the centrifugal force exerted on the blade (1) exceeds the opposing elastic force in the housing-longitudinal direction (neglecting other forces). Conversely, blades (1) spiral toward the hub axis (40) when said centrifugal force is less than said elastic force. There is an imaginary plane (42) orthogonal to the hub axis (40). Housing-longitudinal axis (41) have angles with respect to the imaginary plane (42) of not more than 30 degrees.

Abstract: Introduced here are electronic stethoscope systems designed to simultaneously monitor sounds originating from within a body under examination and the ambient environment. An electronic stethoscope system can include one or more input units that are connected to a hub unit. Each input unit may have at least one auscultation microphone and at least one ambient microphone. To improve the quality of sound recorded by an input unit, a processor can apply a noise cancellation algorithm that considers as input the audio data produced by the auscultation microphone(s) and the audio data produced by the ambient microphone(s). The audio data may be digitized directly in the input unit, and then transmitted to the hub unit for synchronization. For example, by examining the audio data produced by the ambient microphone(s), the processor may discover which digital artifacts, if any, should be filtered from the audio data produced by the auscultation microphone(s). The processor may reside within the input unit or the hub unit.
