Abstract: Liquid level indicators include an upright cylindrical tube of non-magnetic material, a cylindrical, permanent first magnet element aligned with and movable coaxially within the tube, a float, and an annular, permanent second magnet element aligned with and movable coaxially outside the tube. The first and second magnet elements have magnetic fields in alignment with one another, with one of the first and second magnet elements being carried by the float. The first and second magnet elements are axially spaced relative to one another such that the one magnet element which is carried by the float supports by magnetic attraction the other magnet element which is not carried by the float.

Abstract: A ceramic socket or ceramic socket insert for a hip joint prosthesis is tested prior to implantation in a human body by subjecting the portions of the interior of the socket or socket insert to a load that generates stresses that are greater than the physiological load. This may be accomplished either by pressing a hemispherically-shaped deformable material such as polymer or plastic into the interior of the socket or socket insert or by exposing the interior of the socket or socket insert to a fluid under pressure. The interior of the socket or socket insert may be sealed off with a test punch that has a supply line for the fluid. To reduce the amount of fluid that is required, the test punch may have a bulge that projects into the interior of the socket or socket insert and leaves only a gap for the fluid. In the method of testing, the interior of the socket or socket insert is subjected to a load that generates stress such that a defective socket or socket insert is destroyed and a non-defective socket or socket insert survives unharmed.

Abstract: Gaseous blood is conveyed as a cyclone eddy current by a rotary cyclone whirl chamber (26) which has a cyclone inlet (40) axially spaced apart from the cyclone outlet (28). A gas outlet (60) discharges the gas phase from the blood phase. The cyclone inlet is formed by at least one threaded circularly leading blood-inlet duct (36) using which the gaseous blood enters at a tangent into the cyclone whirl chamber. The blood in the blood inlet duct is constricted at least along part of its length to a smaller flow cross-section, thereby accelerating its flow speed. The gas phase is conducted out of the radially inner centre of the cyclone whirl current at a part upstream from the blood inlet duct in a direction between the axial forward and tangential movements of the cyclone whirl current.

Abstract: A data pointer for generating an indirect addressing mode address within a single cycle for a selected one of a plurality of multiple indirect addressing modes. The data pointer is used with a processor architecture scheme which allows for encoding of multiple addressing modes. A data pointer register is coupled to the processor architecture scheme for storing a current address of an operand to be used in a simple indirect addressing mode. An incrementer is coupled to the data pointer register for incrementing the current address of an operand to be used in a simple indirect data addressing mode by a set number thereby generating an address of an operand to be used in an indirect addressing mode with auto preincrement. An adder is coupled to the data pointer register for combining the current address of an operand to be used in a simple indirect data addressing mode with an offset number thereby generating an address of an operand to be used in an indirect addressing mode with offset. A multiplexer circuit is coupled to an output of the data pointer register, to an output of the incrementer, and to an output of the adder for selecting a desired indirect addressing mode address. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A low speed container packaging machine for applying plastic carriers (9) to containers (42) to hold them in packages comprises, a conveyor (5) moving containers (42) in double rows and introduces them to the carrier applying section, and a couple of starwheels (12) to locate them in synchronous positions below jaw plates (11) which apply the carrier stock (9) to them. The jaws (15) are mounted on the plates (11) which spin on two axis at preset angles with respect to the horizontal and vertical planes and which are located symmetrically with respect to the longitudinal axis of the machine. The plates, upon spinning take the carrier strip (9) from a feedthrough (13) and with their jaws (15), stretch them the carrier so that it fits over the end of the containers (42). A centrally positioned release plate (19) removes the carrier stock (9) from the jaw plates (11) and, deposits it on the containers (42). Once the carrier (9) is applied to the containers (42), these enter a cutting station in which packages of 2, 4, 6, 8 or more containers are formed by means of a cutting system which cuts the carrier stock (9). <IMAGE>

A reconnection of the tubing system can also be detected, to initiate resumption of pressure supported inspiration. <?delete-start id="DEL-S-00002" date="20060808" ?>For occlusion detection, the pressure drop in the tubing system is determined by pressure sensors in the inspiratory and expiratory airways of the tubing system. The two pressure drop values are compared, and once occlusion is detected, an alarm is generated, and the ventilator responds to protect the patient from over distension. Abatement of the occlusion can also be monitored in a pressure based occlusion status cycling mode, and the ventilator can revert back to normal ventilation when the circuit occlusion or exhaust port occlusion are not detected.<?delete-end id="DEL-S-00002" ?>

Abstract: During the metallization of bore hole walls in circuit boards with copper inner layers, it is difficult to obtain a sure contacting of the deposited metal layers on the frontal faces of the inner layers. In order to solve this problem, a method for metallization of a substrate containing electric non-conductive surface areas is carried out in the following steps: a) treatment of the substrate with a solution containing one precious metal colloid; b) treatment with an etching solution containing hydrogen ions with a maximum concentration of 0.5 Mol/kg solution and hydrogen peroxide; c) creating a first metal layer on the non-conducting surface by means of non-conducting metallic coating; d) creating a second metal layer on the first metal layer by means of electrolytic metallic coating.
