Abstract: A miniature optical scanner (10) includes an electromagnetic drive having stationary magnets (26, 28) and stationary drive coils (22, 24) to minimize the rotational inertia of the scanner and increase the scanner's resonant frequency. The scanner is such that the resonant frequency is manually tunable as well as automatically adjustable to compensate for variables causing frequency drift. The optical scan angle is increased by employing a multiplying mirror with the optical scanner (10). For a two axis scanning system, the multiplying mirror may be formed of a second optical scanner to increase the optical scan angle relative to both of the axes.

Abstract: Appareil (100) et procédé permettant de mesurer la longueur d'une prothèse (104) que l'on désire implanter dans une cavité (202) du corps d'un patient. L'appareil (100) comprend en général un extenseur (104) enroulé hélicoïdalement en matériau élastiquement déformable, un plongeur (102) qui est relié à l'extrémité proximale (118) de l'extenseur (104), une gaine (106) qui coulisse sur le plongeur (102) et l'extenseur (104) lorsque le plongeur (102) et la gaine (106) sont utilisés afin d'insérer et de déployer l'extenseur (104) dans la cavité (202) du corps, et une échelle (122) permettant de mesurer la longeur de l'extenseur (104) une fois qu'il a été placé de manière amovible dans la cavité (202) du corps. Le mouvement proximal de la gaine (106) afin de déployer partiellement l'extenseur (104) fournit une indication sur l'échelle (122) de longueur. Selon le procédé de l'invention, l'extenseur (104) enroulé hélicoïdalement de l'appareil est placé et partiellement déployé dans la cavité (202) du corps à l'aide du plongeur (102) et de la gaine (106) de l'appareil. Une fois que l'extenseur (104) enjambe la cavité (202) du corps, l'échelle (122) de l'appareil (100) est utilisée afin de déterminer la longeur de l'extenseur (104) déployé. L'appareil (100) est ensuite retiré de la cavité (202) du corps, et un extenseur similaire à l'extenseur (104) de l'appareil est coupé à la longueur indiquée sur l'échelle (122). Dans un second mode de réalisation de l'appareil (300) et du procédé, l'extenseur (304) de l'appareil (300) de mesure est sensiblement non poreux afin de permettre l'occlusion des vaisseaux (302, 303) latéraux partant de la cavité (301) du corps.

Abstract: The invention relates to a separating device for winding devices for material webs, particularly of paper or the like, which are longitudinally divided into several partial webs, with at least two rolls (1, 2) being essentially parallel to each other and flexed essentially in the same direction, with a stand (10) for the pivotable arrangement of the rolls about a common swivelling axis, with a support frame (9) for the rotatable arrangement of the rolls about their respective axis of rotation and for the horizontal sweep of the rolls with respect to the stand (10) about the common swivelling axis, whereby at least one transmission pair (3, 5, 8; 8, 6, 4) for the simultaneous, automatic twisting of the deflection line of the flexed rolls during the horizontal sweep of the support frame with respect to the stand is provided in such a way, that the transmissions are necessarily operated by the sweep movement. The basic concept is that through a sweep of the support frame of the two rotary stretchers, the arc alignment of the rotary stretchers is necessarily adjusted with respect to the entering or exiting web. Thereby, any type of subsequent alignment of the arcs of the rotary stretchers in the separating device is completely eliminated.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil pour remplir avec un liquide volatil au moins un réservoir (10) d'une installation à plusieurs réservoirs présentant des tuyaux d'aération (11A, 11B... 11F) associés à chaque réservoir. Tous les tuyaux d'aération sont reliés à un collecteur d'évacuation commun (13), par l'intermédiaire de valves de surpression respectives (12A, 12B, ...12F). Un collecteur (16) d'extraction de vapeur est également relié à chaque valve de surpression (12A, 12B... 12F) et, durant l'opération de remplissage d'un réservoir, est relié à une installation d'extraction de vapeur. Le collecteur d'évacuation (13) et le collecteur d'extraction (16) sont, tous deux, pourvus de valves réagissant à la pression (15, 19), pour permettre à de l'air d'entrer dans les collecteurs depuis l'extérieur quand la pression dans le collecteur concerné tombe en dessous de la pression atmosphérique. Après le remplissage d'un quelconque des réservoirs (10), le gaz déplacé de ce réservoir est réparti parmi tous les réservoirs, jusqu'à ce que la pression dans tous les réservoirs atteigne une certaine valeur prédéterminée, après quoi la valve (12) associée au réservoir (10) en cours de remplissage fonctionne pour relier le tuyau d'aération (11) associé à ce réservoir au collecteur d'extraction (16).

Title: Method and apparatus for regenerating a moist adsorption medium
Inventor: RAINVILLE DONALD D
IPC: B01D53/96
Filed: 1998-06-12
Granted: 2007-08-21
Abstract: A method and an apparatus for regenerating a moist adsorption medium in a multiple vessel drying system utilize a pulsed control of a purge gas outlet valve during a regeneration phase. Internal heaters are embedded in the desiccant beds.  During the regeneration phase of a desiccant bed, the internal heater heats the desiccant to remove the moisture therefrom in the form of water vapor. After the water vapor builds up in the drying vessel for a certain period of time, the purge gas outlet valve is opened for a period of time just long enough to flush the built up water vapor from the vessel, and is then closed again. Accordingly, the amount of purge gas required is minimized, which leads to a higher quality purge, higher overall system drying efficiency, as well as reduced energy requirements.

Abstract: The invention provides an alarm panel connected to a telephone line. The alarm panel comprises a microprocessor connected to a circuit which operates in two states: passive and active. In the passive state, the alarm panel monitors the line for a ring signal and tests the integrity of the telephone line. In the active state, the alarm panel seizes the telephone line and provides full bi-directional communication with a receiver through the telephone line. The circuit is designed such that the individual subcircuits for each state operate independently of each other and can be modified to meet various regulatory requirements without affecting the other circuits. The circuit draws low current in the passive state. Finally, the circuit is separated from the microprocessor using only 2 or 3 optocouplers.

Granted: 2006-04-18
Abstract: This invention provides an inventive tissue sampling probe which offers many advantages over probes available in the prior art. Unexpectedly superior results are obtained in connection with the retrieval of intact tissue specimens, because of a unique combination of cutting features, including, for example, the employment of an electrosurgical cutting element and a vacuum assist in one preferred embodiment. A particularly important feature of the invention is the ability to manipulate the electrosurgical cutting element to cleanly sever the distal end of the tissue specimen. In certain embodiments, this is accomplished without any cutting impact on surrounding tissue. The versatility of the invention permits its use in many applications, including, for example, breast biopsies, laparoscopic surgery, and lymphadenectomy procedures.
