Patent EP-0644400-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MOSS ROBERT A
IPC: G01B7/14
Filed: 1994-08-24
Abstract: A method for determining the value of a physical variable such as pressure, distance, volume or the like, comprises the following steps:
     a) Generating a magnetic flux density distribution (44.1, 44.2) in a volume (42) filled with a ferrofluid (43);   b) changing the volume (42) responsive to the value of the physical variable;   c) measuring the variation of the flux density distribution (44.1, 44.2) which is caused by the change of the volume (2) in order to determine the value of the physical variable.   
     A differential pressure transducer according to the method uses a ferrofluid contained in two interconnecting chambers, enclosed by two non-magnetic spring diaphragms. At least one inductance circuit measures the variations in the volumes of ferrofluid in the interconnecting chambers. Changes in pressure displaces the non-magnetic spring diaphragms, causing the volume in each in the connecting chamber to change in a differential manner.

Abstract: An apparatus for interconnecting a pair of longitudinal members connectable with vertebrae of a spinal column comprises first and second connector members connectable with the longitudinal members. An elongate plate extends transverse to the longitudinal members and interconnects the first and second connector members. The first connector member includes a hook portion extendable around a portion of the longitudinal member. A set screw clamps the longitudinal member to the hook portion of the connector member. A nut threadably engages the set screw to clamp the elongate plate to the connector member. The elongate plate includes surfaces defining a recess for receiving the connector member. The surfaces defining the recess engage the connector member to prevent the elongate plate from pivoting relative to the connector member.

Abstract: The method involves picking up a position pulse, which is used to define a zero time point and which defines a period of head rotation. All time marks of the control signals required for the successive periods are calculated, as is the bit pattern of the control signals corresponding to a time mark. The time marks of the bit pattern are stored. The bit pattern and the corresponding time marks are output in parallel. The suitable circuit for carrying out the method includes a microcontroller and a controllable output memory. The microcontroller has a capture register to capture the position pulse, a timer, a calculating unit and a comparator. The latter compares the target time mark value with the current value from the timer. When these are equal, the output memory outputs the stored data word.

Abstract: A telephone adjunct interface for use with a network-based voice and/or data message storage and delivery service detects and alerts the subscriber to the existence of waiting messages. The interface device utilizes a combination of AC ring detection and outclass polling of the network to determine whether a visual and/or audible notification should be provided to the subscriber. That is, if the subscriber phone is not answered after a selected number of rings, the interface polls the network after a suitable delay to determine if any messages were left. If the subscriber line is busy or on call-forward while a calling party is seeking to leave a message, the network service platform stores the message and waits a selected interval before seeking to alert the subscriber. Advantageously, the device is configured as a small, portable and inexpensive consumer premise unit which connects easily to all standard analog telephone systems that use modular connectors.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a method of inhibiting tumor cell growth. Tumor cells from a patient are transfected to express both B7 and a CD2 ligand on the surface of the transfected tumor cells and these cells are then readministered to the patient. The presence of the B7 and CD2 ligand molecules on the tumor cell surface stimulates a broad immunologic response against both the transfected and non-transfected tumor cells and results in the immunologic killing of localized and metastatic tumor cells. B7 and CD2 ligand transfected tumor cells, or cell membranes, serve as an immune enhancer to engender a potent immunologic response against the surface antigens present on the tumors cells.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a connector assembly for connecting components (2,4,6,8) of knockdown furniture includes two connector blocks (14, 16) which are rigidly mountable on the furniture components, and a tapered pin (18) which interconnects the two connector blocks. Each connector block includes parallel tongues (22, 24, 26; 54, 56, 58) which are rigidly supported on a base plate (20; 52) in spaced apart relation.

Each tongue has a tapered pin-receiving opening (32, 34 36; 60, 62, 64) which is aligned with the openings of the other tongues. The transverse dimensions of these openings decrease progressively from one tongue to another. The tapered pin extends through the pin-receiving openings and it frictionally engages the tongues with sufficient friction to prevent movement of the tapered pin relative to both connector blocks. The tongues of each connector block (14;16) have edges (82;92) which abut the base (52;20) of the other connector block and are shaped to prevent relative pivoting movement between the connector blocks.

Abstract: Many active computer based systems have sets of rules that execute upon the occurrence of particular events when specified condition predicates are satisfied. The present invention presents a method to control the interaction and execution of multiple rules that are triggered by the same condition.
