Patent EP-1108923-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KAMPMANN FRANK
IPC: F16H61/18
Filed: 1999-11-17
Abstract: The device has a selection lever pivotably mounted in a housing via a ball joint that is moved laterally to pre-select change gates and fore and aft to select gears. Lever parts above and below the joint interact with a plate with a reverse gear blocking stop that can be overcome by deliberate lever operation and forms a protrusion on a movable plate that can be brought into position against spring force to free the reverse gear selection path. The device has a selection lever (3) pivotably mounted in a gearchange housing (1) via a ball joint that is moved laterally to pre-select change gates and fore and aft to select gears. The lever parts above and below the ball joint interact with an intermediate plate with a reverse gear blocking stop that can be overcome by deliberate operation of the lever to select reverse gear. The stop is a protrusion (R) on a movable blocking plate (10) that can be brought into position against spring force to free the selection path (RwGg) for reverse gear.

IPC: A61F2/01
Filed: 1999-07-01
Abstract: The present invention relates to a vascular filter which can be placed inside a body cavity,
such as a blood vessel. A catheter may be used to deliver the filter, and consists of a tubular
basic body with a distal end, a proximal end and a lumen extending between the ends. The
vascular filter may be received in a compressed state inside the catheter lumen. The catheter
may include an ejection device, which can be used to eject the vascular filter from the distal end
of the catheter. Some portion of the vascular filter may tend to push off in a resilient manner
against the distal end of the catheter, and the filter preferably includes a brake for acting on the
catheter lumen, which tends to slow and control ejection from the catheter.

IPC: B08B9/04
Filed: 1999-05-07
Abstract: An improvement of the duct-cleaning unit is
disclosed for scraping the deposits from the inner
surface of the flow line, which are residual in the flow
lines after the completion of conveyance of any fluid
material to thereby clean the flow lines as well as
recover the material left in the tubing. The improvement
is comprised of a pair of spherical guiding bodies 1,1
coupled to lengthwise opposing ends of a connector
member 3, one to each end, through universal joints.
The spherical guiding bodies 1,1 are each provided at
the location near the connector 3 with an annular
pressure-carrying surface 7 that makes fluid-tight
contact at its outermost periphery with the inner surface
of the tubing  A . The design of the present invention may
make the cleaning unit smaller in size, so that the
residual deposits in flow lines, in particular, at the
relatively small radius bent in the flow line, may be
reliably removed and pumped out the flow lines with the
result of the high efficiency in cleaning process.

Abstract: A suspension package includes upper (14) and lower
(12) covers. The covers include oval exterior walls
(20,50) that define oval product-receiving wells
(26,56). Oval mounting rings (80) are mounted to the
covers to support resilient films (86) over the wells.
The covers define generally rectangular inner exterior
walls (22,52) that support hinges (28,58) along a
hinge axis. By combining rectangular covers adjacent
to hinges with oval covers spaced from the hinges,
material costs are reduced and fabrication is
simplified.

fiber network and for transmitting optical signals between optical fiber network
components includes at least one layer of insulated electrical conductors arranged in
side-by-side relation to provide a layer of conductors of a thickness substantially equal
to the thickness of the conductors. The conductors of the at least one layer of
conductors are S-Z stranded and surround the optical fibers which are loosely
contained in at least one plastic buffer tube to provide desirable structural and
operational features to the cable and to an optical fiber network in which the cable can
be included.

Abstract: A wrapped coin roll dispensing apparatus comprising a plurality of
magazines (25), means of supporting the magazines in a substantially vertical
alignment (26), and a lifting conveyor (2), the lifting conveyor having a plurality of
hods (3) about its periphery, the hods being interfaceable with the outlets of the
magazines and adapted to receive coin rolls (1) for transportation to a dispenser
tray, wherein each magazine is provided with a gate (80)for closing the outlet, the
gate being pivotally mounted to the apparatus so as to allow the gate to pivot freely
between an outlet closed position and an outlet open position, the arrangement being
such that the gate of one magazine is held closed by coin rolls carried in an adjacent
magazine but is free to pivot to an open position when the adjacent magazine is
empty or removed and an empty hod aligns with the outlet. The apparatus
provides reduced friction in operation compared to prior art arrangements and thus
provides a more energy efficient apparatus and reduced opportunity for a coin roll
wrapping to be worn and the coin rolls to collapse.

IPC: D01G19/12
Filed: 1999-12-03
Abstract: The mounting structure (1) for a brush (2) at a rectilinear combing machine, to press the fiber heads against the circular comb near the nipper (3), is at each lateral end of the jaw of the nipper (3).  The brush mounting (1) has a mechanism (6), such as with a crank action, with a system to move the lateral free end of the brush (2) in relation to the brush body (7) and give an automatic movement to the brush body (7) and brush (2) against the circular comb as a function of the wear on the brush (2).  The brush (2) is fixed rigidly to the brush body (7), which has its ends at the mechanism (6) to move the brush mounting automatically. The brush movement mechanism (6) has a screw bolt (8) in a tapping aligned with the brush body (7) ends, which is rotated continuously or in steps by a drive at the mounting crank (11). The rotary drive is through a toothed pinion (9) and a rack or a continuous spiral threading. The drive is controlled by a pneumatic, hydraulic, mechanical or electrical system, and it can also be through a step or pulse motor (10). The toothed pinion (9) acts on the bolt head (8), away from the brush body (7), through a non-return freewheel (12). The mounting is at the nipper jaw by a simple bolt fixed to the jaw by welding or a plate screwed to the jaw. The drive motor unit (10) has a piston moving in a cylinder crank opening (11) to give the mounting (1). The piston movement is defined by the length of the cylinder opening (11) and/or by limit stops. The piston is moved by a hydraulic or pneumatic fluid, mechanically or electrically, against a return spring. The drive (10) can also be a rack which engages the pinion (9). The brush movement mechanisms (6) are symmetrical on a plane through the drive pinion (9) and parallel to a plane formed by the nipper (3) jaw. The adjustment movements, to compensate for brush wear, are shown by an index marker formed by a ball pressed between two teeth of the pinion (9). The drive (10) can also have a second pinion, meshing with the first pinion (9) or a continuous screw spiral, operated by a step or pulse motor. The drive system can also incorporate a mechanical drive transmission. A transmission shaft, keyed to the drive (10), has a rack section to engage the pinion (9). The position of the screw bolt (8) can also be set manually by a hand tool at the bolt head. The setting motor can have the fixed section fitted to the nipper jaw and the moving section secured to the brush body. A sensor (16) monitors the movements of the brush body (7) towards the circular comb. The sensor (16) trips an alarm as a light and/or acoustic warning and/or generates an alarm signal at a control screen. A mechanical limit stop defines the end of the movement path of the brush body (7) towards the circular comb.

Abstract: Maximum Likelihood Sequence Estimation (MLSE) is performed on a received signal that is affected by non-linear distorsion. In particular, a cleaned signal is produced by removing non-linear inter-symbol-interference (ISI) through a Volterra canceller which is a simplified structure with respect to a Volterra Equalizer. The latter only processes the non-linear distortion. Finally, a Viterbi Detector is used to process the cleaned signal in the manner of a linear signal, and to estimate appropriate metrics accordingly.
