Abstract: This invention pertains to the use of a degassed perfluorocarbon ("PFC") liquid as a method of removing gas emboli from parts of a patient's internal anatomy. Moreover, the invention can be used as a method of imaging parts of a patient's internal anatomy. Furthermore, the invention can also be used as a way of delivering biological agents to parts of a patient's internal anatomy which contain or are surrounded by gas emboli and/or which are to be imaged. In this invention, a degassed PFC liquid is delivered to a region within the patient's internal anatomy which contains gas emboli and/or which is to be imaged. If gas emboli are present, the degassed liquid is permitted to absorb at least a portion of the emboli. Thereafter, the emboli-containing liquid is removed from the patient or is used as an imaging agent. If gas emboli are not present, the cite is imaged before the degassed liquid reaches atmospheric equilibrium. Thereafter, the liquid is removed from the patient. Moreover, by mixing a biological agent with the degassed PFC liquid, the mixture can be used as a way of topically treating parts within a patient's internal anatomy. Furthermore, by regulating the temperature of the degassed liquid, it can also be used as a way of hypo- or hyperthermically treating the patient.

Date Mar. 17, 1994A cellular radio network including mobile radio stations is provided in which at least some of the mobile radio stations are capable of moving in a primary network, and in at least one other network having a location area configuration different from that of the primary network. The user can manually prevent all location updatings and location updating attempts between the different networks and, thus, temporarily "lock" the use of the mobile station within a particular network. Not even an location updating attempt into a "foreign network" is made. It is up to the user of the mobile station to decide when the user activates the registration function. The locking function remains activated until deactivation by the user. Subsequent to the deactivation, location updatings between the networks are performed in a normal manner.

Abstract: The machine consists of a rotationally driven work holder (2) and a rotationally driven tool holder (6) which is fitted with a fly cutter (7) for the undercuts (8) and with a fly cutter (9), axially and radially offset from the fly cutter (7), for the pockets (10) and which can be offset with its rotation axis (D2) with regard to the rotation axis (D1) of the work holder (2). In this arrangement, the rotational movements of work holder (2) and tool holder (6) can be matched to one another in such a way that, when the fly cutter (7) for the undercuts (8) is in the working position, the fly cutter (7) describes an open hypocycloidal path and, when the fly cutter (9) for the pockets (10) is in the working position, the fly cutter describes a closed hypocycloid. <IMAGE>

Abstract: PCT No. PCT/GB93/02612 Sec. 371 Date Aug. 14, 1995 Sec. 102(e) Date Aug. 14, 1995 PCT Filed Dec. 21, 1993 PCT Pub. No. WO94/14624 PCT Pub. Date Jul. 7, 1994A sealing machine and method are described as used for sealing the edges of documents so that envelopes are not needed. In known such machines, particularly when used for sealing the documents by pressure, problems arise if documents overlap either partially or fully (i.e. a double document) because the pressure rollers in the machine easily jam. The documents being sealed may be very valuable (e.g. pay slips) and any loss or damage is a serious problem. The invention therefore provides means for sensing the presence of double or overlapping documents in a feed path of the machine and means for diverting such double or overlapping documents upstream of the sealing means. Both the thickness and the length of the documents are measured and compared to preset values, such as may be stored in a microprocessor either from ideal figures or from measurements taken during a controlled start-up procedure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for manufacturing form-fitting insoles, of the type which comprises two trays on the bottom of each of which a piece of load-deformable fibrous spongy material is placed; the material is impregnated with a foaming reagent preparation and is covered in its upper region with a piece of double-stretch fabric treated so as to be impermeable, on which the user places his feet until the reaction is completed. The apparatus is characterized in that the trays extend from separate box-like structures which are mutually associable by virtue of retention means that allow mutual rotations about a vertical axis from a side-by-side position so as to move apart, and vice versa, and allow translatory motions along the same axis. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The radiator is especially of the tubular type, with at least two similar base elements (G1,G2,G3) which are arranged beside one another. The elements are welded to one another in their head and foot regions in order to form a circuit, or are connected by nipples (N) in order to make gastight and liquid-tight seals. The heating circuit flows into the radiator at the foot of the first element (G1), and leaves at the foot of the second element (G2). The opening between these elements is closed by a disc (1), which is pressed against the surrounding edge by a separator (2). The separator acts against a sealing plug (VS) which is screwed into an internal thread on the opposite side.
