Patent EP-0847529-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ELLSWORTH STOUGHTON L
IPC: G01N21/07
Filed: 1996-08-27
Abstract: Rotor d'analyse destiné à effectuer des dosages immunologiques, qui comprend une ou plusieurs chambres d'introduction (16) pour l'échantillon, les réactifs de lavage, et les réactifs de marquage. Une chambre de réaction (28) est placée radialement à l'extérieur des chambres d'introduction et y est reliée par un passage (34) de flux à faible résistance d'écoulement. Une chambre de collecte (60) est placée radialement à l'extérieur de la chambre de réaction et y est reliée par un passage (62) de flux à forte résistance d'écoulement. Des échantillons sont introduits dans la chambre d'introduction d'échantillons par un dispositif de transfert, les volumes d'échantillon étant déterminés éventuellement par détection du moment auquel la chambre d'introduction d'échantillon est pleine. Des réactifs introduits initialement dans les chambres d'introduction peuvent être sélectivement transférés dans la chambre de réaction par rotation à faible vitesse du rotor. La chambre de réaction peut ensuite être vidée par rotation à grande vitesse du rotor. De cette manière, des dosages immunologiques hétérogènes exigeant un contact séquentiel de zones de réaction avec l'échantillon et différents réactifs peuvent être effectués.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un procédé de stockage et de restitution de données techniques associées à un injecteur à valve électromagnétique (10), qui permet d'améliorer les émissions d'un moteur. On soumet chaque injecteur à un essai de façon à obtenir des spécifications de données techniques relatives audit injecteur. On transfert (46) ensuite les spécifications de données techniques à l'injecteur (10), par exemple en utilisant un marquage au laser permettant de marquer l'injecteur d'un code à barre (44) contenant ces spécifications de données techniques. Il est ensuite possible de lire ces spécifications de données techniques stockées sur l'injecteur en utilisant un explorateur. On transmet ensuite ces spécifications de données techniques restituées à un ordinateur du véhicule. Ce dernier corrige les variations existant entre les injecteurs de manière à réduire la variabilité du flux des injecteurs jusqu'à l'obtention d'un flux unique et centré.

Abstract: An imaging system is disclosed for use in low-light environments or environments where low-levels of such radiation is desirable. Examples of such environments are night photography, laparoscopy, and mammography. In the case of radiation that is other than visible light, a radiation converter and method for fabricating same is disclosed. The radiation converter comprises a film of heavy scintillator (e.g. CdWO4) coated on a fiber optical window to efficiently convert the radiation into visible light. The visible light is passed into a signal amplifier employing an electron-bombarded charge-couple device (EBCCD) to amplify the signal. Novel methods of performing three-dimension imaging using this system as well as removing the effects of high speed movement are also disclosed.

Abstract: The procedure enables processing signals representing the waves reflected or transmitted by an object (O) in order to carry out an analysis of the structure of the object. The process includes transmission of waves incident on the structure and reception of the waves reflected by the object using a number of detection elements (D1 - Dn) independent of one another. After reception and digitisation the information is stored in a field memory (MC). For each point of the object (Pij) a calculation is carried out for the positions occupied in the field memory for the signals detected by each of the detection elements at a given instant. This position information is then applied to a further process which allows the determination of the size and form of the reflected wave, in order to determine the structure of the object (O).

Abstract: A vehicular fuel supply apparatus in which a sub-tank 21 that is inserted
into and attached to the bottom wall opening 1b of the fuel tank 1 has integrally
formed therein by molding a fuel chamber 24, support cavities 7c, 22c, 23c and a
fuel flow paths 27 and 29, and a fuel pump 7, a fuel filter 22 and a pressure
regulator 23 are accommodated and supported within the respective support
cavities. The fuel chamber 24 is substantially closed against a rush flow of the
fuel except for the air vent hole 24b and the fuel inlet port 24a through which the
fuel flows at a predetermined flow rate per time, and has formed in the wall
surface of the fuel pump support cavity 7c a groove 38 for accommodating and
supporting a power supply line 11. Parts for assembling the components or
elements of the apparatus are not necessary and the weight and the parts
number is decreased, resulting in an easy assembly and a small cost. Also, the
fuel does not flow out from the sub-tank even at the time of the abrupt
acceleration or deceleration of the vehicle.
