Abstract: A non-occlusive medication patch (32) to be applied to the skin includes a porous self-supporting backing layer (10) to give the patch the required integrity and strength by acting as a supporting framework for other components, and a flexible hydrophilic pressure-sensitive adhesive reservoir (20) comprising a natural or synthetic polymer for the sustained release of medication to be absorbed topically through the skin into the body of a patient. The reservoir has two portions: first, an external coating layer (24) with an exposed lower skin-contacting surface (24b) that forms a pressure-sensitive bond with the skin, and second, an upper internal portion (24a) which infiltrates the porous backing (10) and becomes solidified therein after being applied so that the reservoir and the backing are unified, enabling the backing itself to act as a storage location for the medication-containing reservoir (20). The medication within the reservoir migrates over time from within the backing (10) through the lower coating layer (24b) and passes through the skin to provide sustained release of the medication into the body of a patient. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to an apparatus for subsequently transporting articles of predetermined dimensions, said apparatus comprising: a frame (1,10); at least two conveyors (T1,T2T3), each of which comprising an endless belt element (16) and at least two reversing wheels (12,14), the parallel rotation axes (6) of which coincide for the conveyors (T1,T2,T3); and a drive (2,3,4,5) for the belt elements (16), wherein each conveyor (T1,T2,T3) has a body (10) supporting the upper part of the belt element (16), wherein at least one supporting body (10) is coupled by means of displacing elements (V1,V2,V3) to at least two guides (19) placed parallel to the rotation axes (6) of said reversing wheels (12,14), whereby the or each conveyor (T1,T2,T3) is displaceable along said guides (19) transversely of the transporting direction of said belt elements (16). With an apparatus according to the invention it is possible to obtain optimum support of the article to be transported by the conveyors (T1,T2,T3) in terms of robustness and stability, since the conveyors are adjustable (V1,V2,V3) in the direction transversely of the transporting direction, wherein the distances between two adjacent conveyors (T1,T2,T3) are equal for each pair of conveyors (T1-T2;T2-T3) at any distance occurring between the outer conveyors. It is likewise possible to adapt the conveyors (T1,T2T3) in an apparatus according to the invention to the length in the transporting direction of the articles to be transported in order to prevent shifting of the articles. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Le laser à gaz refroidi par convection comprend un tube de décharge (1) traversé par le milieu laser (2), qui peut être excité électriquement par des électrodes (17 à 19) situées en dehors dudit tube de décharge (1). Le tube de décharge (1) est entouré d'un second tube (12) situé à distance de lui. L'espace annulaire (13) compris entre ces deux tubes (1, 23) est traversé par un milieu de refroidissement (14) à faible conductivité électrique. Les électrodes (17 à 19) se trouvent en dehors de l'espace annulaire (13) sur le second tube (12). Un chauffage excessif du milieu laser (2) et l'apparition de décharges en arc qui en résultent sont ainsi aisément évités. Le laser à gaz s'utilise dans la production de sources de faisceaux laser fiables, économiques et à rendement élevé.

Abstract: To provide a correct outgoing stream of data packets for each established connection (having identifying number vc/vp) in a data packet switch (1), which comprises several parallel switching planes, which are identical to each other, there is for each output port (5) for each switching plane (No. 1 and 2) and each established connection a buffer (29) arranged to store at least one data packet. When a first data packet arrives to an output port (5) it is immediately tested by a control device (26, 35) for this output port, if this first data packet is the next data packet, which is in turn to be forwarded from the switch (1). In a first case, when this condition is satisfied, the data packet is forwarded from the switch (1). In a second case, when this condition is not satisfied, the data packet is stored in the buffer (29), which is arranged for the connection, to which said data packet belongs, and for the switching plane, through which the data packet has travelled.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus are set forth for preparing and delivering bone cement from a powdered polymer component and a liquid monomer component by simultaneously injecting the powdered and liquid components, stored in separate component chambers, into an evacuated mixing chamber under the effect of the vacuum; by uniformly mixing the components in the mixing chamber (to thoroughly wet the powder); and by delivering the cement formed by the polymerization process, as needed in an operative setting, utilizing a single ready to use device. The uniform mix is achieved by simultaneously subjecting the contents of the component chambers to the effects of the mixing chamber's vacuum via separate one way nozzles, interconnecting the component chambers to the mixing chamber, which cause the powder to be broadcast and liquid to be sprayed into the mixing chamber. The nozzles are designed and oriented in a predetermined manner (depending on the type and quantity of the constituent bone cement components being mixed), to cause the components to interact at a preselected distance within the mixing chamber, to assure uniform powder saturation and a thorough mix which yields a homogeneous reaction product.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une transmission (1) comportant un moteur d'entraînement (2), une boîte de vitesses (3) et un essieu (6) pour un véhicule automobile. Un arbre de sortie (7) de la boîte de vitesses (3) est relié à un arbre articulé (9) par l'intermédiaire d'un joint articulé (8). Un autre joint articulé (10) assure la liaison de transmission de l'arbre articulé (9) à un arbre d'entrée (11) d'un différentiel (4). Pour obtenir une configuration en W de l'arbre articulé (9), le moteur d'entraînement (2) et la boîte de vitesses (3) sont montés pivotants sur l'essieu (6). Toutes les variations apparaissant dans le sens longitudinal de la transmission (1) produisent immédiatement des angles d'inclinaison importants au niveau des joints articulés. Des irrégularités dans la chaîne cinématique sont ainsi évitées. Outre le fait de réduire la sollicitation des joints articulés, l'invention permet d'éviter la production de bruit désagréable. L'invention convient notamment pour des véhicules utilitaires du type de ceux utilisés dans les travaux publics et l'agriculture.

Abstract: The method proposed for establishing a link between a main line carrying a fluid and a fluid-takeoff line is carried out by means of a pipe-broaching unit. The pipe broaching unit has, located in a drilling-bit guide pipe (1), a drilling-bit feed sleeve and, located in the feed sleeve, a drilling bit (7). Initially, the feed sleeve (6), together with the bit (7), is turned so that it penetrates down towards the main line (H) until the feed sleeve (7) contacts a bottom stop. The pointed sealing edge (65) of the bit now seals off the main line (H) from the fluid-takeoff line and the outside environment. The bit is now turned to penetrate further down, thus tapping the main line. When the bit is turned in the opposite direction, the feed sleeve remains initially in the sealing position, and is withdrawn together with the bit only when the bit moves back along the guide tube, thus leaving the bore free for fluid to flow through. Pipe-broaching units operating along these lines can also be used as valves.
