Patent EP-0188413-A4 (EP)
Title: Circuit apparatus for electrothermal treatment of cancer eye.
Inventor: MIODUSKI PAUL
IPC: A61N1/40
Filed: 1984-07-16
Abstract: Circuitry (1) for use in a hand-held electronic probe (3) for passing high frequency current through malignant eye tissue of livestock or other tissue such as warts includes a thermistor (17) in a probe tip (9A', 9B') that contacts the tissue, producing a voltage that controls a voltage controlled oscillator (66) which drives an audio transducer (34). If, during treatment, the probe tip (9A', 9B') is held against the malignant tissue with sufficient force, the pitch of a sound emitted by the audio transducer (34) steadily increases, indicating to the user that proper pressure is being maintained, to ensure heating of the tissue to the desired treatment temperature. The circuitry (1) then causes the transducer (34) to emit periodic beeping signals which the use can count to ensure that the tissue is maintained in a desired elevated temperature range for a desired amount of time. Circuitry responsive to the temperature sensor (17) varies the duty cycle of the high frequency current applied to the tissue to maintain the elevated temperature thereof within a predetermined range. Initially, the high frequency current is to prevent excessive temperature lag between the tissue and the probe tip (9A', 9B') to prevent initial temperature overshoot of the tissue before the thermistor (17) and circuitry can respond to reduce the duty cycle.

Patent EP-0339080-A4 (EP)
Title: Implantation of prosthetic devices.
Inventor: GIBSON DAVID
IPC: A61F2/16
Filed: 1988-11-09
Abstract: Prosthetic devices are prepared for subepithelial implantation by coating their surfaces with a coating (30) comprising crosslinked or uncrosslinked fibronectin. If the surface of the device comprises a material which does not normally bind fibronectin, it is pretreated, for example, by coating with poly(L-lysine). The coated prosthetic device is implanted by removing a portion of the epithelium (12), affixing the coated device to the subepithelial tissue optionally replacing all or part of the removed epithelium, and allowing new epithelial tissue to grow over and affix itself to the surface of the prosthetic device. The method of the invention can be used to implant contact lenses permanently beneath the epithelium of the cornea (10).

Title: Temperature-compensated quantitative dimensional measurement device with programmable in-tolerance/out-of-tolerance indications
IPC: G01B7/16
Filed: 1989-06-15
Abstract: A computerized gauge measures dimensions, typically in the range of 6.1865'' to 6.1917'' accurate to +/-0.001'', typically the diameter of a steel railroad car axle. The gauge simultaneously senses the temperature, typically within a range of -20 DEG  F. to 100 DEG  F. +1 DEG  F., of the axle workpiece. In consideration of the predetermined coefficient of expansion of the workpiece, the gauge calculates the dimension that the workpiece would exhibit should it be thermally brought to a predetermined, 59 DEG  F. by convention, reference temperature. From the workpiece-temperature-compensated dimension resulting from such calculation, the axle may be recognized as being (i) oversized but repairable, (ii) within an acceptable size range, (iii) undersized but repairable, or (iv) undersized and unrepairable. The gauge may further sense its own temperature and, in consideration of another predetermined coefficient of expansion as besuits the gauge, calculate a gauge- and workpiece-temperature-compensated dimension. All temperature sensing is normally integral with the measurement process. Compensation for temperature-induced dimensional variation is typically at an accuracy that is (i) much less than those dimensional variations caused by deviations from reference temperature that are being compensated for, (ii) commensurate with other sources of measurement error, and (iii) typically within -0.0001'' for steel axles of 6+'' diameter over a temperature range of greater than 100 DEG  F.

Title: Improved motor controller having a control loop for neutralizing rotor leakage and magnetizing reactances
IPC: H02P7/30
Filed: 1991-01-11
Abstract: A motor controller (10) for a single or multiphase induction motor (51) with control loop (59a, 59b, 59c) including auxiliary winding (61), capacitor (63) and saturable reactor (65). Auxiliary winding (61) is electro-magnetically coupled to stator winding (53, 55, 57) so the capacitive reactance of control loop (59a, 59b, 59c) is in parallel with the magnetizing reactance and the rotor leakage reactance of motor (51). The control loop (59a, 59b, 59c) is devoid of any direct electrical connection to motor (51). By varying the magnitude of current in D-C control winding (69), the inductance of reactor (65) is adjusted so the capacitive reactance of control loop (59a, 59b, 59c), as electro-magnetically reflected into motor (51), is in resonance with the parallel combination of the magnetizing reactance and the rotor leakage reactance. Adjustment of reactor inductance, and of the capacitive reactance of control loop (59a, 59b, 59c), may be stepwise or continuous, either instance dependent on motor speed or applied frequency. The magnitude of the motor current is maintained or even reduced even though output torque is increased.

Filed: 1993-12-13
Abstract: A planar fluorescent lamp (10) having a sealed chamber (12) and divider walls (26) to create a serpentine discharge path is provided with sidewall electrodes (38, 40). A plurality of sidewall electrodes (38, 40) are spaced from each other and positioned adjacent each sidewall (14) of the sealed chamber (12). In a preferred embodiment, the sidewall electrodes (38, 40) are planar, cold electrode plates.

In alternative embodiments, the sidewall electrodes (38, 40) are positioned within the chamber directly exposed to the mercury vapor, or alternatively, are separated from the chamber by a dielectric layer. The sidewall electrodes (38, 40) are powered in pairs, each pair being driven at a different frequency than any other pair. Providing sidewall electrodes (38, 40) increases the uniformity of light emission from the lamp as well as increasing the overall range over which the light can be dimmed, aids in starting the lamp and increasing the overall brightness of the light output from the lamp.
