Title: Circuit arrangement with a preamplifier connected to an opto-electric transducer
Inventor: BARTENSTEIN PETER
IPC: H03G3/20
Filed: 1988-10-25
Granted: 1991-03-28
Abstract: A circuit arrangement has a pre-amplifier that has its input connected to an opto-electric transducer and whose gain is controllable by a final control element formed by a field effect transistor. In order to achieve an especially great range of dynamics, the pre-amplifier contains the drain-source path of a field effect transistor that is connected in parallel to a resistor in a feedback branch. This field effect transistor is activated or inhibited by a regulator. In this way, the range of control of a controllable amplifier arrangement following the pre-amplifier is doubly utilized. The circuit arrangement can be advantageously used in optical transmission equipment of PCM technology.

Inventor: OCALI OGAN
IPC: A61B10/00
Filed: 1997-04-18
Granted: 2001-02-08
Abstract: The invention provides a method for magnetic resonance imaging and spectroscopic analysis of a specimen which includes positioning the specimen within a main magnetic field and introducing an antenna having a loopless antenna portion in close proximity to the specimen. Radio frequency pulses are provided to the region of interest to excite magnetic resonance signals, gradient magnetic pulses are applied to the region of interest with the antenna receiving magnetic resonance signals and emitting responsive output signals. A processor processes the responsive output signals to provide image information for display in a desired manner. The method in a preferred form involves employing a flexible antenna. The method in another preferred form involves employing an impedance matching circuit electrically interposed between the loopless antenna and the processor to enhance radio frequency power transfer and magnetic resonance signal-to-noise ratio from the loopless antenna to the processor. The method may be used on a wide variety of specimens and in a preferred use is introduced into small blood vessels of a patient to facilitate determination of atherosclerotic plaque. Medical intervention procedures, such as plaque removal, may be employed generally simultaneously with the imaging of the present invention. Corresponding apparatus and magnetic resonance antenna assembly are provided.

Title: Magnetic key operated lock
IPC: E05B47/00
Filed: 1990-02-15
Granted: 1993-08-19
Abstract: In a magnetic key operated lock, a slide member carries a plurality of wheels in which are mounted magnetic pins. The position of the pins forms part of a code of the lock. The wheels are caused to rotate by insertion of a code changing key, which has a code for unlocking the lock, and moving the slide member. As the slide member moves, one of the pins which is repelled by the particular code changing key abuts a stop, which thus causes the respective wheel, and so the other wheels, to rotate. By having wheels of two different diameters, the smaller wheels can be made to rotate more than once before a code is repeated. The stops are formed by pressing a tang from a stationary wall in the lock.
