Abstract: Refrigeration apparatus comprising a circuit containing inflammable gases, at least a sealed electric switch accessible externally by the atmosphere in the storage compartment, and provided with a member (1) adapted to move relatively to the position of the door to supply power to the lamp, and provided externally with a sealed rigid body (4) and an elastic element (2) having a substantially concave shape, preferably a bell-like shape, and applied with its concavity around said moving member (1) so that the edge of said concavity sealingly closes against said sealed rigid body (4) along a perimeter that entirely surrounds the zone in which said moving member passes through into said sealed rigid body. 
In a preferred manner, the free rim (6) is elastically engaged around a projection (3) of the body (4) of said switch, while the zone in which said free rim (6) is engaged is pressure-locked in position by an appropriate unremovable locking element (8). At least an electric terminal (23,24) comes out the side of the switch which is substantially opposite to the side in which said moving member (1) is situated, while the switch is adapted to be applied by snap-fitting by means of two elastic engaging elements (11,12) opposing each other.

Abstract: A speech frame is converted to speech bursts and interleaved over a predetermined number of TDMA frames for transmission. At a receive site, the transmitted signal is equalized and a quality signal indicating the quality of each burst signal is produced from the equalized signal. The equalized signal is de-interleaved, and then Viterbi-decoded speech samples are produced. A CRC circuit performs an error check operation on the decoded speech samples to produce an error bit if a speech frame failed the check. A decision circuit compares the quality signal with a first reference value and produces a first disable signal when it is lower than the first reference value. The decision circuit further compares a total sum of the quality signals produced from the predetermined number of burst signals with a second reference value and produces a second disable signal when the total sum of the quality signals is lower than the second reference value. A speech decoder operates on the decoded speech samples to recover speech frames and masks speech frames in response to the error bit from the CRC circuit and the first and second disable signals from the decision circuit.

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide a
facsimile machine having a telephone conversation function,
which can securely shift the facsimile communication mode
to the telephone conversation mode after facsimile
communication even if an error occurs during facsimile
communication, without using a telephone conversation
reservation function. After facsimile communication is
started, when facsimile communication is stopped through
the transmission of predetermined signals between the
calling party side facsimile machine and the receiving party
side facsimile machine in case image data to be transmitted
is completely transmitted or when a communication error
occurs because of paper jamming, the main controller (12)
keeps occupying the communication line (1) occupied by the
line controller (2), and the signal sound on the occupied
communication line (1) is externally emitted by the speaker
(11). When the calling party recognizes that the receiving
party requests a call depending on the signal sound
transmitted from the communication line (1) and externally
emitted by the speaker (11) and lifts the handset (3), the
lifting of the handset (3) is detected by the hook switch
(4). The main controller (12) then controls the line
controller (2) to enable conversation with the receiving
party side facsimile machine via the handset (3).

Abstract: A method for performing transmyocardial revascularization
(TMR) comprises the steps of creating an incision in an
outer portion of heart tissue of a patient and creating a
channel in the patient's myocardium through the incision by
advancing a channel creating device into the myocardium
beyond the depth of the incision to remove myocardial
tissue without removing all outer portion heart tissue
coinciding with the channel. As a result, the remaining
outer portion tissue acts as a cap to reduce bleeding from
the channel subsequent to removal of the channel creating
device. The cap may be in the form of an annular flap of
myocardial/epicardial tissue. The channel creating device
used to create the channel with the method can be either a
mechanical coring device or an advancing lasing device.
