Abstract: An adjustable spinal fixation system comprises collection of anchoring assemblies (12) attached, via variety of connectors (14,126), to spine-stabilizing rod (16). The anchoring assemblies (12) include a linkin member (120) attached in a ball-and-socket fashion to bone-engaging member (20) that is adapted to engage spinal bone of a patient. The linking member (120) join one of the included connectors (14) to an associated bone engaging member (20). The connectors (14) are selectivel attached to one of the stabilizing rods (16). The anchorin assemblies (12) each include a support collar (28) and retention collet (24) that cooperate to allow adjustment o the bone-engaging member (20) and corresponding connecto (14) during surgery. When surgery is complete, a securin nut (16) and locking bolt (124) cooperate with the suppor collar (28) and retention collet (24) to maintain th relative position of the entire fixation system, preventin unwanted movement between the system components. In on embodiment, the connectors (14) are multi-piece unit (Figure 5) that may be added or removed without disturbin adjacent connectors. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing pig iron. Iron ore is reduced in a reduction shaft (1) for forming sponge iron which is subsequently introduced into the head of a melt-down gasifier (3). The sponge iron is melt open in said gasifier by means of a gasifying means that is also introduced into the head of the melt-down gasifier and an oxygen-containing gas and is melt-down to form liquid pig iron, whereby a reduction gas is produced at the same time. Said reduction gas is discharged from the head of the melt-down gasifier and is supplied to the reduction shaft for reducing the iron oxide. Operation of the melt-down gasifier is controlled in such a way that a reduction gas having a certain composition and being present in a certain amount is produced so that the sponge iron that is introduced into the melt-down gasifier is provided with a high metallisation degree. Operation of the melt-down gasifier is also controlled by introducing iron oxide therein. The metallisation degree of all the iron carriers which are introduced into the melt-down gasifier is reduced in relation to the metallisation degree of the sponge iron and by means of said iron oxide.

Abstract: A mobile station's current uplink transmit power capacity is taken into account in radio resource allocation decision and in other radio network operations. Once a user connection between a mobile station and the radio network is established, the current transmit power level of the mobile station is detected. Information regarding that detected power level is provided to the radio network for use in one or more radio control operations such as admission control operations. Examples of such admission control operations include bit rate changes, handover, and power/interference regulation. The information regarding the detected uplink power level is preferably included with an uplink message otherwise already transmitted from the mobile station to the radio network on a regular basis. In a preferred example embodiment, a radio network control node determines an amount of radio coverage for the mobile station based on the provided uplink, mobile transmit power level information. The radio network control node decides whether to change some aspect of the user connection based on that coverage determination. Other radio related parameters may be considered in the decision such as the current interference level in a particular cell. The radio network controller may decide, for example, whether a first bit rate currently assigned to the user connection can be changed to a second higher bit rate or if a handover to a neighboring cell can be accommodated without the user connection being lost or deteriorated as a result.
