Abstract: The invention concerns an igniter plug for a pyrotechnic device, in particular a hand-launch or mechanical launch grenade, comprising a body (104) provided with a control mechanism including a fly-off lever (101) and a percussion mechanism (128) co-operating with a primary pyrotechnic module (105) for initiating the charge (119) of the associated device. The invention is characterised in that it further comprises a lock (150) engaged with the lever (101), in storage position, to prevent the fly-off lever (101) from moving towards its release position, the lock (150) being configured to impose, when the igniter plug is activated, an initial movement of the lever (101) countering its displacement required for releasing the percussion mechanism (128), so as to disengage the lock (150) and the fly-off lever (101).

Title: Low speed speech encoding method based on a network protocol
Inventor: LI YINGTAO
IPC: G10L19/18
Filed: 2001-06-12
Granted: 2008-04-30
Abstract: The invention is a low speed speech encoding method based on Internet protocol (IP), comprising: determining speech characteristic parameters in TN duration, determining an optimized frame length T for successive speech data processing according to the characteristic parameters, making compressed encoding of the speech data in every T, assembling packet of the encoded bits with TCP or UDP, again assembling packet of the assembled bits with IP and finally outputting to the channel. The method uses single frame, variable length frame, intra-frame adaptive low speed speech encoding method, which is benefit of reducing bits rate and raising transmission efficiency. The method takes optimized length encoded frame as a unit to break the IP datagram, so it raises encoding and decoding quality of a speech data greatly. Informal test shows that the method can raise MOS (mean opinion score) value 0.1 to 0.2. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A flexible prosthetic tissue-type heart valve having commissures that are substantially decoupled from a cusp support structure. The valve includes three leaflets having arcuate cusp edges and opposed concave shaped free edges, with outwardly-directed attachment tabs therebetween. A cusp support structure in either one or more pieces attaches to the leaflet cusp edges. Three commissures are each formed partly with an axially-extending insert member to which two adjacent leaflet tabs attach. An inverted V-shaped clip maintains close contact between the adjacent leaflet tabs and provides a stress-relieving clamping action in conjunction with the insert member. The insert member attaches about its lower end to base sections of the cusp support structure, or to an intermediate sewing ring, so that the commissures may pivot about the cusp support structure.

Abstract: The invention relates to a dielectric antenna, particularly suited to portable radio devices. The feed conductor (231) of the antenna is shaped so that it at the same time in itself serves as a radiator in the same frequency range as the dielectric resonator (220) of the antenna. The resonance frequencies of the feed conductor and the dielectric resonator are advantageously arranged to be so near to each other that there is formed a united operation band. The feed conductor is advantageously located on a surface (223) of the dielectric element. The structure may also include parasitic conductors. For the antenna according to the invention, there is obtained a larger bandwidth than for corresponding antennas of the prior art. Moreover, the air gaps between the feed conductor and the dielectric element are avoided, as well as resulting changes in the electric properties. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method of video data compression is provided which is comparatively efficient in compressing data, and at the same time enables transmission of compressed data with sufficient robustness to withstand losses in the transmission channel. A frame of data is divided into coded macroblocks and skipped macroblocks which are grouped into respective slices in a sequence of slices. Respective slices are allowed to contain arbitrary numbers of consecutive macroblocks, and can begin and end at arbitrary positions within the frame. A run-length codeword, comprising a small number of bits, is inserted at the end of a slice to indicate the total number of skipped macroblocks between the final coded macroblock and the end of the slice. To further enhance error resilience an additional codeword, which also indicates the total number of skipped macroblocks, may be inserted at the beginning of the next-following slice.
