Abstract: A method for implanting a medical device between tissue comprises the steps of providing a catheter having a body and a distal end thereof wherein the catheter includes an implantable device comprising a housing having a proximal end and a distal end and a longitudinal axis. The implantable device further includes a first set of anchoring members operatively connected to the proximal end of the housing and a second set of anchoring members operatively connected to the distal end of the housing. Both sets of anchoring members are movable between a collapsed position and a deployed position. Each set of anchoring members includes ring members connected to a housing of the device. Further steps of the method include inserting the distal end of the catheter into tissue and disposing the medical device at least partially from the distal end of the catheter. The first set of anchoring members are moved from the collapsed position to the deployed position and one side of the tissue is engaged with the tissue engaging surfaces of each ring member of the first set of anchoring member. The medical device is further disposed completely from the distal end of the catheter wherein the second set of anchoring members are moved from the collapsed position to the deployed position and the other side of the tissue is engaged with the tissue engaging surfaces of each ring member of the second set of anchoring members. <IMAGE>

Abstract: It is possible to produce a decoded image with a high image
quality from data of the lowermost hierarchy obtained during
hierarchical coding operation. An image of a first hierarchy equal to
an original image is successively thinned in thinning units (11) so that an
image of a second hierarchy and an image of a third hierarchy are
formed. Then, in an optimum correction data calculating unit (102), the
image of the second hierarchy is corrected, a prediction value of the
image of the first hierarchy is predicted from the resultant correction
data (101), and correction data of the image of the second hierarchy is
generated to reduce a prediction error of the prediction value lower
than a preselected threshold. In another optimum correction data
calculating unit, correction data of the image of the third hierarchy is
similarly obtained.

IPC: F01L13/00
Filed: 2003-02-26
Abstract: The invention controls the opening of an oil control valve (OCV), which
controls the operation of a variable valve timing mechanism in an internal combustion
engine, according to a duty ratio of a driving pulse signal. An electronic control unit
(ECU) performs feedback control on a duty ratio DR of the driving pulse signal during
ordinary operation based on a target value and an actual value of the valve timing.
When the oil temperature is low (i.e., when the operating oil viscosity is high), the
ECU controls the valve timing of the engine by repeating an inching operation that
maintains the duty ratio DR of the signal at a large value (i.e., 0% or 100%) for a
predetermined hold time so as to operate the variable valve timing mechanism, and
then maintaining the duty ratio DR of the signal at a value (50%) that does not operate
the variable valve timing mechanism.

Abstract: Betätigungseinrichtung mit einer seismischen Masse, bei der die seismische Masse
gewollt bei Abbrems- oder Beschleunigungsbewegungen und bei Schieflage der
Betätigungseinrichtung auslöst. Die seismische Masse löst aber nicht bei Schwingungen
und Vibrationen, die auf die Betätigungseinrichtung einwirken, aus. Um dies zu
erreichen, wird in einer ersten Lösungsvariante der seismischen Masse (3) eine
Tilgermasse (6) zugeordnet, die durch eine Aufnahme (1,2) gehalten wird. Die Aufnahme
(1,2) beinhaltet eine obere schwenkbar gelagerte Pfanne (1) und eine untere Pfanne (2),
in deren tiefstem Punkt die seismische Masse in einer Ruheposition liegt und aus dieser
heraus in eine Position überführt werden kann, in der die obere Pfanne (1) ausgelenkt
wird und über einen Taster (7) einen Auslösemechanismus betätigt. In einer zweiten
Erfindungsvariante liegt die seismische Masse auf einem, in die untere Pfanne (2)
eingelegten, Einsatzteil (12) auf, dessen Oberfläche gegenüber der Aufnahme (1,2)
einen erhöhten Reibkoeffizienten aufweist. Die Auslösung des Mechanismus erfolgt
analog zu Variante 1 über eine Überführung der seismischen Masse in eine
Auslöseposition. In einer dritten Erfindungsvariante ist die seismische Masse als
rotationssymmetrischer Hohlkegel (3a) ausgeführt, der eine Lagerung in seiner Spitze
geodätisch oberhalb seines Schwerpunktes aufweist. Bei einem Ausschwenken des
Hohlkegels (3a) aus seiner Ruhelage betätigt dieser über seine Flanken einen
Auslösemechanismus, der ähnlich wie in Variante 1 ausgestaltet ist.
