Abstract: A heat exchanger 32 comprises a first heat exchanger 40 for allowing
heat to be exchanged between water and a reformed gas from a reforming
reactor, a second heat exchanger 50 for spraying and vaporizing water in the
reformed gas from the first heat exchanger 40, and a third heat exchanger 60
for vaporizing unvaporized or precipitated water. The reformed gas from
the reforming reactor is cooled by the heating and vaporizing of water, and is
mixed with the vaporized water and fed as mixed gas to a water gas shift
reactor. The processes of cooling the reformed gas, heating and vaporizing
of the water, and mixing the reformed gas and steam are completed in the
heat exchanger 32, making it possible to design a smaller, simpler, and more
efficient apparatus.

Abstract: Die Erfindung betrifft einen SiO2-Glaskolben mit mindestens einer Stromdurchführung aus einem gasdichten Kompositmaterial, wobei das Kompositmaterial aus einem Edelmetall mit einem Schmelzpunkt > 1700°C und aus SiO2 gebildet ist, und wobei das Kompositmaterial zumindest teilweise mit einer SiO2-Schicht bedeckt ist. Es stellt sich das Problem, eine gasdichte, korrosionsbeständige Stromdurchführung für einen SiO2-Glaskolben, vorzugsweise einer Entladungslampe, bereitzustellen, die eine hohe elektrische Leitfähigkeit besitzt und die einfach herzustellen und zu handhaben ist. Das Problem wird dadurch gelöst, dass das Edelmetall und das SiO2 homogen im Kompositmaterial verteilt sind, dass ein Edelmetallanteil im Kompositmaterial in einem Bereich von >= 10 Vol.-% bis <= 50 Vol.-% vorhanden ist und dass die SiO2-Schicht das Kompositmaterial zumindest im Bereich der Verbindung mit dem SiO2 -Glaskolben bedeckt. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for inserting a needle in an animal
body for effecting radiation therapy in said body, comprising a template
for positioning the needles to be inserted, needle drive means for drive
a needle through said template towards a desired location in the body,
and real-time imaging means for creating and presenting an image of the
desired location and the position of said needle during the insertion of
said needle. Due to the fact that the bevelled tip of the hollow needle
cause the needle to diverge away from the "line of insertion or
movement" and away from the actual desired position in the animal body
adversely affecting the dosimetry quality of the implanted seeds a more
accurate insertion of the needle is required. According to the invention
the device is provided with adjusting means for adjusting a movement of
said needle towards said desired location during insertion.

Abstract: The light emitted from a spot light source (45) is emitted

triangular form. The light reflected upon the diffusion pattern
(46) is emitted perpendicularly to a light emitting surface (44b)

light incident on the diffusion pattern (46) transmits through
the diffusion pattern (46) whereby the directivity of emission
light is narrowed in a lengthwise direction of the light conductor

Abstract: A video encoder is usually designed to have a given performance at a given resolution. For example, MPEG2 encoders are known that compress video at '601' resolution (720x576 pixels) into IPPP sequences using 2 MB of RAM. The invention provides the feature of selectably (82a, 82b) encoding images in a lower resolution mode. The spare capacity of resources in the low-resolution mode (e.g. memory capacity and memory bandwidth) is used to improve the performance (e.g. higher image quality, lower bit rate). More particularly, the RAM (81) and motion estimator (9) required for producing P-pictures in the high-resolution mode are arranged (83, 84) to produce B-pictures in the low-resolution mode.

Abstract: A system and method for the temporary closure of a wound, especially an abdominal wound, to facilitate re-entry, final closure, and long term healing of the wound. An abdominal wound dressing and methods of use are described that enable the application of negative pressure to the wound site in a site healing promoting manner while also limiting the formation of adhesions that would prevent the removal of the dressing. The dressing comprises a layer of porous foam material (36) enclosed by sheets of elastomeric material (38) punctuated by a number of appropriately placed holes (34). Multiple layers of porous foam may also be used. A suction tube connector (16) is provided on an upper surface of a layer of foam (12) for connection to a negative pressure source. At least one layer of foam is enclosed in elastomeric material and is placed in direct contact with the tissue within the open wound. Fluids are drawn by negative pressure through the holes positioned in the elastomeric envelope, and through the foam. If multiple foam layers are employed, the lower layer(s) of foam are of a finer porosity while the upper layer of foam is coarse. An adhesive elastomeric sheet (14) covers the entire wound dressing and seals the edges to the skin surrounding the wound. An appropriate vacuum device is attached to the suction tube connector.
