Abstract: Apparatus for improving the skills of a sports person comprises two diverging guidelines at least one of which is resilient and tensioned. A reciprocating line extends between and is connected to each guideline whose length is equal to or greater than the minimum spacing of the guidelines and less than the maximum spacing of the guidelines. A ball is connected to and generally coaxial with the reciprocating line, the arrangement being such that when the ball is struck the reciprocating line is moved by its connection with the ball along the guidelines in the direction of their divergence until restrained from further movement by forces imposed on the line caused by the increased spacing between the guidelines and stretching of the resilient guideline(s). The ball and reciprocating line are returned to their starting positions (or positions close thereto) along the guidelines in the direction of their convergence through reactive forces generated between the reciprocating line and the resilient guideline(s).

Abstract: Bioprosthetic devices include an exterior biological tissue member which at least partly defines a cavity, and a proteinaceous biopolymer which fills the cavity, and intercalates and is chemically bound (fixed) to the tissue of the surrounding biological tissue member. In preferred forms, the bioprosthetic device is a bioprosthetic vertebral disc having a fibrillar outer annulus which surrounds and defines an interior cavity and is formed by removal of at least a substantial portion of the natural gelatinous core therefrom. The cavity defined by the fibrillar outer annulus may then be filled with a flowable proteinaceous biopolymer. Preferably, the proteinaceous biopolymer is a liquid mixture comprised of human or animal-derived protein material and a di- or polyaldehyde, which are allowed to react in situ to form a cross-linked biopolymer within the cavity. The liquid mixture may be formed in advance of being introduced into the cavity, or may be formed simultaneously during introduction into the cavity.

Abstract: A snowboard binding system that incorporates the riding performance of a strap binding with the convenience of a step-in binding. The binding system includes a binding interface that is configured to be coupled to a step-in binding base, while also being configured to secure a snowboard boot in a manner that provides a rider with the riding performance of a strap binding. The binding interface may include one or more straps for securing a boot to a snowboard. The binding system may be configured so that the binding base engages regions of the binding interface to which the straps are attached to provide the feel of a strap binding. The binding base may include at least three engagement members to engage with corresponding mating features on the interface. The binding base may include a pair of engagement members at both the rear or heel end and the front or toe end thereof to engage with corresponding mating features on the interface. The engagement members at the heel end of the binding base may be configured to move independently of the engagement members at the toe end of the binding base to facilitate stepping the interface into and out of the binding base. The binding may be provided with a locking arrangement that reduces the likelihood of a false locking condition between the interface and binding by prohibiting at least one of the pairs of engagement members from becoming locked until each of the pair of engagement members assumes its closed position. The binding may be provided with a locking arrangement that maintains each of a pair of engagement members in each of a plurality of closed positions to secure a corresponding pair of mating features. The binding interface may have a lower portion with a X-shape configuration to be mounted below a boot sole. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A system for injecting controlled release medicinal implants has a syringe-like injector body with a lumen and plunger. A needle is attached to the injector body and receives therein an injectable implant with an internal hollow. The implant is retained in the needle by friction, which is overcome by the plunger upon dispensing. As the plunger moves from the retracted position to the deployed position, it forces a medicament previously loaded into the injector body into the implant hollow and then pushes the implant out of the needle into the creature into which the needle has been inserted. The implant may contain a filler to absorb flowable medicaments to aid in their retention within the implant. As in known implants, the medicament is released gradually depending upon the dissolution rate of the implant body which is formed from a biodegradable material. Because the medicament is loaded into the implant at the time of injection, issues concerning the reaction of the medicament with the implant material during preparation and storage are eliminated.

Abstract: A multi-path time-interleaved analog-to-digital converter (MP-ADC) exploits an additional reference ADC cyclically connected in parallel to each ADC component part to be calibrated of the multi-path ADC, which can be of any kind, in particular sigma-delta, to whom conventional calibration techniques cannot be applied because of its stochastic behaviour. For each ADC component part the algebraic differences between successive digital outputs of the reference ADC and the ADC under calibration are forwarded to an accumulator circuit (13) which integrates them over a given time slot, obtaining a digital word (CH1',...,CH4') proportional to the difference between the offset of the two paths. A digital adder adds up the digital word so obtained to the output of the ADC component part under calibration multiplied by a scale factor which depends on the length of the given time slot. After a reasonable time the voltage offset of each individual path is proportional to the voltage offset of the only reference path, not necessarily zero. Optionally, the outputs of the digital adder are de-scaled by the same scale factor, restoring the original value. The time-interleaved ADC is continuously running and the voltage offset calibration is performed in background without affecting the normal operation (fig.7). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The pore size controllable filter can separate and remove effectively the suspended solid and eliminate rapidly it captured by the device. The filtering materials ( 21 ) are built on the upper filtering material holder ( 23 ) and the lower filtering material holder ( 24 ) of radial type facing each other at a certain distance in the filtering tub ( 2 ), forming a filtering layer ( 21 a). According to the direction and the degree of rotation of the upper handle ( 28 ) connected to the upper rotation axis, the filtering materials ( 21 ) come together to the center along the upper filtering material holder ( 23 ) and the lower filtering material holder ( 24 ). Then one side or both sides are twisted in opposite directions and concentrated around the perforated pipe ( 22 ) located at the central axis or restored to the original state. Accordingly, the size of the pore created between the filtering materials ( 21 ) can be adjusted, enabling to conduct filtering and washing operations at a proper level.
