Title: Compliant enclosure for thermoacoustic devices
Inventor: SMITH ROBERT W M
IPC: F25B9/00
Filed: 2003-04-10
Abstract: According to one embodiment of the present invention, a thermoacoustic device has a complaint enclosure which includes a rigid portion and a compliant portion. The compliant portion includes an oscillating member and a flexure seal with a pair of ends and a flexure body extending between the ends. One of the ends is sealed to the rigid portion and the other end is sealed to the oscillating member. The flexure seal has an average cross-sectional area and an end-to-end equilibrium length. A flexure volume is defined as the product of the average cross-sectional area and the end-to-end equilibrium length. A thermal core is disposed in the complaint enclosure and includes at least a first and a second heat exchanger. A working volume of gaseous working fluid fills the complaint enclosure. The working volume of gaseous working fluid has an equilibrium pressure. A motor is operable to oscillate the oscillating member such that the end-to-end length of the flexure seal is increased and decreased with respect to the equilibrium length. Therefore, the pressure of the working volume of gaseous working fluid is oscillated between a peak pressure greater than the equilibrium pressure and a minimum pressure less than the equilibrium pressure. In some embodiments, the working volume is less than or equal to four times the flexure volume, while in other embodiments, the working volume is less than or equal to two times or one times the flexure volume.

Patent AU-2003296828-A1 (AU)
Title: Secure method for modifying data recorded in a memory card
Inventor: PANGAUD NICOLAS
IPC: G07F7/10
Filed: 2003-12-12
Abstract: The method is for modifying the data in a system for transactions by card, where the card is with a memory, and a reader can read the card when it is in a determined position with respect to the reader. The memory is read-only, erasable and re-writable, and comprises two counter stages (A,B) for registering the data values with respect to transactions effected by the card. Each transaction involves the modifications of the data value, which is a monotonic function of time.  At each transaction, the writing of the data value effects the writing of new data value (Y) in the counter stage (B), and the write operation effects the erasing of old data value (X) registered in the counter stage (A). At the end of the write operation which is correctly effected, the counter stage (B) contains the new data value while the counter stage (A) contains the value zero. The data value registered in one of the counter stages (A,B) is incremented at each write operation. The transaction is not validated if the write operation is not effected correctly because of pulling out the card in the course of the transaction, when none of the two stages registers a value equal to zero. The counter is restored by a rewrite operation when the card is pulled out during the write phase. If the counter stage (B) contains an incorrect value (Y') comprised between the old data value and the new data value, the counter is restored by a rewrite operation followed by a write operation consistent with the writing of the new data value in the counter stage (A) and the erasing the incorrect value in the counter stage (B). If the incorrect data value (Y') is below the old value (X), the counter is restored by a rewrite operation of the old data value in the counter stage (A) and erasing the incorrect data value, followed by a write operation of the new data value (Y) in the counter stage (B) and erasing the old data value in the counter stage (A). The counter is restored by a rewrite operation when the pulling-out takes place between the writing phase and the erasing phase. When the pulling-out takes place during the erasing phase and an incorrect data value (X') is registered in the counter stage (A), the counter is restored by a rewrite operation of the new data value (Y) in the counter stage (B) and erasing the incorrect data value. A system (claimed) for transactions with card implements the method (claimed). The card with memory is a card operated without contact.

Title: Surgical pin
Inventor: BUETTLER MARKUS
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2003-07-30
Abstract: The surgical nail, here in the form of an intramedullary nail, has a central axis, a longitudinal borehole with a diameter D extending coaxially with the central axis, a casing with an inner surface and a transverse borehole, extending transversely to the central axis with the cross-sectional profile F and the borehole axis. A component, which narrows the cross-sectional profile F, is provided in the longitudinal borehole in the region of the transverse borehole. By these means, the clearance, which is usually present between the medullary nail and the locking screws that have been introduced therein, can be eliminated without risk and an improved holding force as well as an improved guiding effect between the locking screw and the medullary nail can be achieved.
