Filed: 1990-02-08
Abstract: The invention relates to a system which can be fitted to a chair, in which deformable, especially inflatable, elements (4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10), whose passage from a retraction state to an expansion state and vice versa involves well-defined sequences of movements of the human body, are in communication with a circuit (30, 23, 32, 33) and a source of power, especially of pressurised fluid (22), comprising control means (40, 41) placed under the dependence of a programmer (42) automatically ensuring alternate phases of expansion and of retraction which give rise to stress displacements in human joints and tissues in general, a stabilisation of the human body, in itself and relative to the chair, and a stimulation of a reflex activity of tonic muscles. This programmed-dynamism system aims to periodically assist the user in getting up more easily from the chair in order more easily to subsequently readapt thereto in order to obtain greater comfort and to maintain his alert state. <IMAGE>

Title: Reactance buffered loop antenna and method for making the same.
Inventor: TAN WILLIAM
IPC: H01Q/
Filed: 1989-12-20
Abstract: A reactance buffer (218) maintains a substantially constant resonant frequency for an adjustable size loop antenna (200) having first (202) and second (204) antenna segments. Each segment has first (206, 208) and second (212, 214) ends, the first ends (206, 208) being coupled to a receiver, and the second ends (212, 214) providing loop size adjustment. The reactance buffer (218) comprises a reactance buffer input (206) coupled to the second end of the first (202) antenna segment. A plurality of taps (T1-T7) are linearly disposed along an integrated structure, the structure presenting a substantially flat surface, and having a predetermined length between the outermost taps corresponding to the loop antenna size adjustment required. The taps (T1-T7) provide selectable reactance buffer outputs for coupling to the second end of the second (204) antenna segment. A plurality of reactance elements (302, ..., 320) couple the reactance buffer input (206) to each of the plurality of taps (T1-T7) and provide a substantially constant reactance measured between the reactance buffer input (206) and each of the plurality of taps (T1-T7).

Abstract: Sont décrits un système multiphase de diffusion injectable à libération étalée ainsi qu'un procédé pour traiter des êtres humains et d'autres mammifères avec ce système. Ledit système comporte une diffusion régulée et prolongée d'un agent bioactif macromoléculaire micro-encapsulé d'origine biologique, ledit agent bioactif étant encapsulé dans des microcapsules en polymère bio-érodable d'encapsulement, ce qui permet une libération étalée et multiphasée dudit agent, à savoir (i) une première partie dudit agent bioactif qui, lors de l'injection, est susceptible d'être libérée desdites microcapsules en polymère bio-érodable, d'une manière selon laquelle seule une quantité relativement faible dudit agent est libérée pendant ladite première phase, la réaction biologique initiale étant réduite au minimum en raison du fait que ladite partie produit une réaction douce semblable à celle normalement observée avec de faibles doses d'administration classique; et (ii) des parties secondaires dudit agent bioactif qui assurent un niveau notablement supérieur d'agent bioactif dans des doses susceptibles de provoquer une réaction grave chez le patient, en l'absence de la libération préalable de ladite première partie.

Abstract: Les dispositifs de régénération par piégeage de l'état antérieur de la technique emploient un ou deux noyaux de piégeage en céramique relativement grands, et un cycle de régénération qui brûle la suie dans une direction telle que les parois poreuses sont soumises à des pointes de température excessives. Par ailleurs, durant la régénération il est normal que des gaz d'échappement sales soient dégagés directement dans l'atmosphère. Dans une première variante, l'appareil de régénération par piégeage (10) selon la présente invention comporte un élément de chauffage électrique (82) et un dispositif de flux à contre-courant (92) pour chacun d'une pluralité de noyaux de piégeage relativement plus petits (61) disposés dans un logement (12), chaque dispositif de flux à contre-courant (92) étant conçu pour diriger une source d'air (180) à une vitesse déterminée vers la deuxième extrémité normale (63) du noyau de piégeage (61), pour chauffer l'air, pour propulser l'air chauffé à travers le noyau de piégeage (61) vers la première extrémité (62), et pour commander la combustion des matières particulaires pendant que les noyaux de piégeage restants (61) fonctionnent pour filtrer les gaz d'échappement dans la direction d'écoulement normale. Dans une deuxième variante, un dispositif de chauffage et de flux à contre-courant (226) mobile est positionné devant un noyau sélectionnée parmi les noyaux de piégeage plus petits (61') et un procédé de combustion de flux à contre-courant similaire à celui de la première variante est employé. De préférence, le dispositif de flux à contre-courant (92, 226) comporte un orifice d'étranglement (112) pour régler le débit du flux d'air dirigé vers le noyau de piégeage sélectionné (61).

Abstract: A transmission shift control having both multiple shift pressure moding and adaptive pressure schedule adjustment. A predetermined pressure schedule is used to develop an open-loop pressure command for the post-fill phase of the on-coming clutching device in each upshift. Regardless which shift mode is selected, a control unit measures the duration of the shift and compares the measured duration to an expected duration which will occur if the shift progresses as desired. The deviation, if any, is used to develop an adaptive correction amount, which is applied to shift mode dependent tables. In the base (Normal) mode, the pressure is determined in accordance with the pressure command from the predetermined pressure schedule, adjusted by an adaptive correction amount from a Normal mode correction table. In the Performance mode, the pressure command from the predetermined schedule is adjusted by adaptive correction amounts from both the Normal mode correction table and a Performance mode correction table. The Performance mode correction table is initialized at a minimum value which maintains at least a minimum pressure differentiation between the Normal and Performance modes so that a switch from the Normal mode to the Performance mode will always result in a firmer, sportier shift feel.
