Abstract: An absorbent article for human body discharge, especially sanitary towel or incontinence article, comprising an absorbent cushion (1), wings (5) located at the sides of the cushion and a liquid-impermeable layer (3) on a side facing away from the body, is to be better protected, in particular, against emergence of liquid due to the action of pressure or surge-like production of liquid. For this purpose, a further, liquid-impermeable layer (6) is located on the side of the wings (5) facing the body and connected so as to be liquid-tight on the edges with the liquid-impermeable layer (3) on the side facing away from the body, and the pockets formed by the liquid-impermeable layers (3, 6) in the wings are open toward the absorbent cushion (1). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A single-crystal substrate (12) is prepared which has the (100) crystal plane with a step line (13) formed therein by cleaving an MgO single crystal. By evaporating metal onto the cleavage plane, with a mask wire (18) of platinum disposed at a distance from the cleavage plane and extended in a direction across the step line, a pair of metal thin film electrodes (14,15) separated by a gap (24) are epitaxially grown. By this, a step line (17) corresponding to the cleavage-plane step line is formed in the surface of each of the metal thin film electrodes. Metal is further evaporated onto the metal thin film electrodes at a low rate, by which nano-size thin wires (22) extending along the step lines are grown so that they approach each other and are finally connected to each other.

Abstract: A novel apparatus for a catheter for use in aspirating and/or infusing fluids into a patient. The catheter, having a proximal end and a distal end, comprises a plurality of valves in the walls of the catheter comprised of relatively soft material while maintaining a predetermined degree of structural integrity at the catheter tip. The plurality of valves are radially distributed in offset relation around the distal end of the catheter such that no two valves lie in any one radial plane. Similarly, the plurality of valves are longitudinally separated or offset in their placement at relatively short, but differentiated, distances from the distal end of the catheter such that no two valves lie in any one axial plane. The radial and longitudinal separation of the valves helps avoid structural weakness in the catheter, particularly at the distal end of the catheter. The catheter may be a single-lumen catheter, or a multi-lumen catheter. 
     The plurality of valves are comprised of a primary valve constructed to be preferably operable during infusion and/or aspiration, and at least one secondary valve which operates as a surrogate should the primary valve become partially or totally occluded. The catheter enables repeated infusion and/or aspiration over a period of time. 
     The present invention also includes methods for using and manufacturing the catheter by following certain steps.

Abstract: The invention relates to mammographs which make it possible to obtain a radiograph of the breasts. It consists in connecting the compression cushion (205) of a mammograph to the moving carriage (206) which drives it via a stationary piece (101) and a moving piece (102), which are themselves connected to a system of hinged parallelograms (104, 105). A spring (203) holds these parallelograms substantially rectangularly when the compression force is zero. The movement between the moving piece and the stationary piece, and therefore the compression force, is measured by a Hall-effect system (302, 304). The driving of the carriage is obtained by a stepper motor (207) controlled by a coding wheel (208). It allows precision measurement of the compression force obtained, and improvement of the comfort of the patient. <IMAGE>

Title: Simplified method and apparatus for producing white flour from wheat grain
Inventor: CURRAN STEVEN P
IPC: B02C4/06
Filed: 1991-11-19
Abstract: Apparatus and a method is disclosed for processing wheat to produce white flour by substantially removing the bran layer from the endosperm and germ portions of the wheat grain and grinding the resulting wheat product to a relatively fine state in a roll and classification train that is much simpler than prior milling equipment. Thirteen grinds with intermediate sifting are replaced with one flattening and four grinding stations and three sifts. The initially tempered wheat is passed between spaced, smooth surfaced compression rolls which flatten the wheat grains and then directed between corrugated spiral breaking rolls rotated at different rotational rates with each roll having at least 20 surface corrugations per circumferential inch. The comminuted product is then directed between corrugated spiral grinding rolls rotated at different rotational rates and each having at least 26 corrugations per circumferential inch. After selective classification through mesh sieves, the comminuted wheat is further reduced in size by passage between corrugated spiral reduction rolls having at least about 36 corrugations per circumferential inch which are also rotated at differential rotational rates. The final flour is produced by directing the comminuted product between smooth surfaced finishing rolls rotated at different rates of rotation.
