Patent EP-0552313-A1 (EP)
Title: Check valve catheter.
Inventor: YOUNG THOMAS M
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 1991-09-13
Abstract: A valved catheter is disclosed having an elongated, flexible tubular element extending along a central axis and a flow portion of a valve assembly which controls fluid flow in the tubular element. The element is adaptable for bidirectional flow of fluid between its proximal and its distal ends, with a bidirectional valve assembly coupled to the interior of the tubular element. The bidirectional assembly generally defines a control plane which intersects the central axis at an oblique angle. The assembly has an inflow portion and an outflow portion nominally disposed to lie in the control plane. The inflow portion includes an inflow vane positioned between the intersection of the control plane with the central axis and the distal end and which is adapted to be deflected out of the control plane toward the distal end in response to the establishment of a relatively high fluid pressure at the proximal end and a relatively lower fluid pressure at the distal end. The outflow portion also includes an outflow vane positioned between the intersection of the central plane with the central axis and the proximal end and which is adapted to be deflected out of the control plane toward the proximal end in response to the establishment of a relatively low fluid pressure at the proximal end and a relatively higher fluid pressure at the distal end.

Abstract: Un dispositif de blocage de chaise roulante possède une base plate (1) pouvant être ancrée sur un plancher ou faisant partie de ce dernier. Une butée (9) peut être relevée depuis la base, de manière à s'incliner vers le haut et vers l'avant, éventuellement soutenue par une contre-fiche (15) ou retenue par un lien flexible. A l'arrière, des points d'ancrage (4) comportent des sangles réglables (5) formant des boucles, que l'on peut serrer à proximité de ces points. Lorsqu'une chaise roulante enjambe la base, la butée (9) est relevée pour entrer en contact avec l'arrière du châssis de la chaise roulante, bien au-dessus du niveau de l'essieu principal, et les sangles (5) sont serrées autour des parties inférieures du châssis. On peut appliquer une tension maximale en poussant la butée (9) légèrement vers l'avant.

Abstract: Appareil de dessication et de lavage de pâte à papier, comprenant une cuve sous pression dans laquelle se trouve un ensemble table présentant une surface poreuse ayant la forme d'un transporteur à bande, sur lequel une pâte liquide est déposée. Une chambre de pression différentielle ménagée dans l'ensemble table, est déchargée par rapport à un emplacement de pression plus faible, afin de créer un différentiel de pression sur toute la pâte liquide et de produire la dessication. De l'eau de lavage est également déposée sur la pâte desséchée en cycles séquentiels afin d'effectuer le lavage. Une plaque de contact est prévue pour comprimer la pâte liquide et aider à l'élimination de l'eau. Le transporteur à bande de l'ensemble table sur lequel la pâte liquide est déposée, demeure fixe au cours du procédé de dessication et de lavage, puis, après que le différentiel de pression entre le récipient et la chambre de pression différentielle ait été réduit à zéro, la bande déplace la pâte desséchée et lavée vers un lieu d'évacuation.

IPC: G11B20/02

Abstract: The invention discloses a radio frequency switching circuit for VCR. First RF input signals (RF₁) which have passed through an antenna are amplified by the collector of an amplifying transistor (P₁₁) of a switchable amplifier (10), and the amplified signals are supplied to an RF output terminal (40). When the amplifying transistor of the switchable amplifier is turned off by a switching control current (I₀) (by a modulation voltage), third RF signals (RF₃) of the VCR are outputted through the RF output terminal (40) after passing through an output register (R₂₀) of the amplifying transistor. As a result, during the selection of the video channel for the VCR, the introduction of air broadcasting signals are completely blocked. Therefore, the designers do not have to provide vacant channels between the effective channels, and therefore, the designing restraint is freed, while an increase in the number of video channels becomes possible.

Abstract: Une effaneuse comprend au moins un tambour (6a, 6b) pourvu de plusieurs séries de dents d'effanage (8) s'étendant axialement. Le tambour est monté rotatif sur des supports terminaux. Les embases (26) des dents, aux extrémités du tambour, présentent un profil marginal incliné de manière radiale, depuis les supports adjacents, afin de faire dévier, par rapport à ces supports, les tiges de plantes qui entrent en contact avec ces profils au cours du fonctionnement de l'effaneuse, de sorte que les tiges sont moins susceptibles d'être prises entre le rotor et le support. Un élément de recouvrement (32), placé sur le support, recouvre en partie les embases des dents adjacentes afin de renforcer cet effet. Une paire de tambours peut être placée bout à bout, avec un support intermédiaire (14), et peut être agencée de manière analogue pour faire dévier les tiges des plantes par rapport au support intermédiaire. Cela permet d'accroître la largeur de la partie opérationnelle de l'effaneuse tout en réduisant au minimum les risques d'un blocage dû au fait que des tiges ont été prises entre le support intermédiaire et les tambours.
