Abstract: A Soller slit (16) in an X-ray spectrometer can parallelize fluorescent radiation which emanates from a specimen (4) and is to be analyzed according to wavelength by an analyzer crystal (18). Because the aim is to irradiate an as large as possible surface of the specimen (4) by means of primary X-rays (10), inevitably disturbing fluorescent radiation is also generated by the environment of the specimen, for example the specimen holder (6). In order to intercept this disturbing radiation so that it cannot reach the X-ray detector, a collimator mask (12) is arranged in a fixed location in the beam path. In the case of varying specimen dimensions it is not always possible to choose such dimensions for this mask that the disturbing radiation is intercepted. Therefore, a second collimator mask (28) is provided (behind the Soller slit (16)) in order to intercept the disturbing radiation in cooperation with the first mask (12).

Abstract: An object of the present invention is to provide an MRI magnetic
field generator with a structure that makes it possible to obtain a uniform
static magnetic field stably within the imaging space, without making the
patient feel confined, despite the structure being compact and low-cost, and
that yields a sharp image with high resolution. Magnetic field boosting coils
14 are wound around the peripheral edges of a pair of magnetic pole pieces
that face each other so as to form an air gap, which makes it possible to
increase or decrease the magnetic field intensity with a simple construction,
without having to modify the shape of the magnetic circuit or increase the
weight or surface area of the magnets. Also, the magnetic field distribution
can be adjusted by adjusting the direction of the current flowing to the coils,
which enhances magnetic field uniformity.

Abstract: There is provided a pacemaker system for enabling special rate control for
patients who have specially recognized conditions, e.g., patients who are post-ablation and
thus are susceptible to bradycardia-dependent ventricular fibrillation or other arrhythmias.
In a preferred embodiment, the pacemaker has a special function rate control algorithm
(Fig. 2) which, for the post-ablation patient, commences pacing with a lower rate limit
at a high start value of around 80-100 bpm, and decays the lower rate limit down to an
end value of about 60-70 bpm over a duration of about a month. Additionally, the
pacemaker is provided with one or more selectable special function rate response
algorithms (Fig. 4b), for enabling higher rate response to patient exercise and demand for
increase cardiac output. The combination of the gradual decay of lower rate limit over
the programmable duration as well as the specially programmable rate response enables
optimization of pacing so as to prevent arrhythmias.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a direct-action spring-loaded overflow valve which is intended for operating pumps at any flow rate and at values exceeding the respective resistance of the system. This overflow valve limits the pressure in a system where a liquid is discharged using a positive-displacement pump and flows throughout the system at various flow rates. The valve cage (1) includes a valve body (22) fitted with a valve head (14), wherein both cage and body are arranged so that the valve head exhibits a second effective diameter which is larger than a first effective diameter after it is lifted from a valve seat (3). With the increasing displacement of the valve body (22), the valve head (14) uncovers simultaneously an increasing passageway section. The valve body (22) is made of a single piece in the shape a piston (11) which is capable of sliding in the valve cage (1) and has a third effective diameter larger than the second one so that the liquid flowing through the valve cage (1) upon the opening of said valve will generate a pressure differential acting on said piston (11) against the action of the first spring (21).
