Abstract: Appareil permettant le réglage horizontal automatique d'un siège d'un véhicule à moteur ou d'un bateau, qui comprend une base en forme de plaque de base (11), des dispositifs d'entraînement (30, 32) fixés sur la plaque de base (11) et un élément de siège (5) relié mobile à la plaque de base (11) et conçu de façon à ce que sa position soit influencée par les dispositifs d'entraînement (30, 32). La liaison mobile est obtenue par des nervures annulaires latérales de l'élément de siège (5) qui se déplacent dans des rainures opposées de deux supports latéraux (12, 13) fixés sur la plaque de base (11). Pour un réglage horizontal, l'élément de siège (5) tourne autour d'un axe imaginaire s'étendant au-dessus de l'élément de siège (5). Le réglage horizontal est commandé par un dispositif de détection situé sur le dessus de l'élément de siège (5) et par un dispositif de commande des dispositifs d'entraînement (30, 32) relié au dispositif de détection. Une combinaison de deux appareils de la présente invention en vue du réglage horizontal par rotation indépendante d'un siège autour de deux axes perpendiculaires l'un par rapport à l'autre en projection verticale est également décrite.

Abstract: A wagering system such as a lottery with a central computer communicating with agent terminals at which tickets are issued, for example in convenience stores and the like, has a player-operated win-checking system coupled to the communications network, preferably as a peripheral to the agent terminal but possibly as a separate network terminal. Player choices and game identifications are bar coded on the tickets. A player scans the ticket automatically to trigger comparison of the bar coded data with winning entry data kept in a past game memory, such that the system need not resort to stored data on individual wager transactions to check for wins. This reduces the burden on the agent and the network because most issued tickets need not be checked by attempting to validate them for a payout. A limited number of past games are stored, e.g., the most recent thirty Keno game cycles of a game run at five minute intervals. One or more of the win checking system, the agent terminal and the central computer can hold the past game memory. Winning choice data is downloaded after each game, or scanned player choices are uploaded, to effect the comparison. If a ticket is too old for the corresponding game data to remain in the past game memory, the player is directed to the agent, who can use the terminal to attempt to validate the old ticket as a winner.

Abstract: The proposed implant system for extra-oral applications provides an opportunity to improve the anchoring of epitheses or bone-conduction hearing aids and is also suitable for providing permanent access inside the body for the administration of stimulants or substances. A further application is the anchoring of orthodontic appliances, thus considerably widening the use of implants to correct tooth formation. Essential components of the system are a primary part (1) which can be screwed into the bone with early and increased stability and an extra-oral secondary part which improves skin stabilisation. In the primary part (1) the design of the threaded section (5) and the head (2) is decisive. The proposal also concerns an anti-rotation device against unintentional loosening of screwed-on secondary parts, and a special threading tool and moulding device.

Abstract: The method involves using controllable companders (1.1,1.2) to determine the transmission amplification in each transmission channel (VS1,VS2). The acoustic coupling factor between loudspeakers (L1-L3) and microphones (M1-M3) is determined by a coupling estimation device for single channel communications. The coupling factors determined for a microphone are weighted using the short-term average values of the received signals of the loudspeakers associated with the coupling factors. The resulting maximum value is used as the control parameter for the transfer characteristic of a compander associated with each transmission channel (VS1,VS2) of a microphone, so each transmission channel's gain is controlled separately.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a single test system and method for determining the integrated glycemic condition of a subject by measuring the concentration of glucose and the level of protein-bound glucose in a subject's body fluid, such as whole blood. The glucose concentration is indicative of the subject's immediate glycemic condition, whereas the protein-bound glucose concentration is indicative of either intermediate or long-term glycemic condition. Optionally, other analytes indicative of glycemie condition, such as ketone bodies or fatty acid derivatives, can also be measured. The present invention also provides a method of diagnosing diabetes. The invention additionally provides a method for analyzing the concentration of fructosamine in less than or equal to five minutes without the use of a reaction accelerator.
