Abstract: When a data input signal having R plus X groups of M digits is received, the digits are segmented such that X different first counter-detectors receive M digits and a second counter-detector receives the R digits. The counter-detectors determine a number of most significant count digits leading a most significant non-count digit and detect the presence of a non-count digit. A decoder receives the outputs of the first counter-detectors and, responsive to a non-count digit detection in a most significant group of M digits having a non-count digit, communicates the corresponding count number to a concatenator. A third counter-detector determines and communicates a number of most significant groups of M digits having no non-count digits. An output of the third counter detector is concatenated with an output of the decoder where the decoder output is represented by Z digits where M=N<Z> (X, M, R, N, and Z are non-negative integers). The concatenation represents the number of leading count digits. If R is non-zero, the second counter-detector determines a number of most significant count digits leading a most significant non-count digit and detects the presence of a non-count digit in the R most significant bits. An adder then adds R to the concatenation. A multiplexer selects the number of leading count digits in the R bits if the R bits contain a non-count digit else the multiplexer selects the concatenation plus R. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method involves applying noisy input speech signals (S(t)) to a sampler (1a). The signal is divided, with part of the signal passed to a noisy signal processor (100). The processor extracts noisy energy signals (10) and passes them to an S/N ratio estimator (11). The signal is then passed to a gain calculation circuit (12) before input to a circuit determining the filter function coefficient. The output C(nT) from the filter function circuit is applied to a FIR filter (14) in the second channel.

Abstract: The implant consists of a basically straight short branch (21) forming the posterior condyle, and a curved long branch for the distal condyle. The two branches have flat rear thrust faces (23,24) and an outer common and continuous curved face (30). The rear side of the implant has a projecting rod (26) which forms an angle of some 30 degrees with the rear thrust face (24) of the long branch (22). Each of the two branches ends in a tapering section (31,33) with a curved transverse edge, and the projecting rod ends in a shaped tip. The implant is shaped so that an imaginary median line on the long branch has a first section which extends from the imaginary medium line of the small branch, and a second section which is offset from the lengthwise plane in the direction of the sagittal plane.

Abstract: The targets for cathodic sputtering according to this invention are formed of hot-pressed or hot isostatic-pressed indium oxide/tin oxide powder with a minimum density of 95% of the theoretical density and with a sub-stoichiometric oxygen content are known. In order to provide the improvement of high stability and, simultaneously, high sputtering rate, it is proposed according to the invention that the target have a crystalline phase which is formed as a solid solution of indium oxide and tin oxide with a minimum of 90% by weight, preferably a minimum of 97%, of the solid solution, and which has an average grain size ranging from 2  mu m to 20  mu m. In order to make available a simple and cost-efficient method for producing a target consisting of a starting powder of indium oxide/tin oxide, which allows for a precise setting of the oxygen content and a homogeneous chemical composition throughout the entire target volume, it is proposed that a starting powder be used that is produced by oxidizing finely distributed indium tin metal.

Abstract: A slotted patella resection guide and stylus used in the preparation of the human patella to accept a patella prosthesis in total knee arthroplasty. The guide includes jaw members for gripping bone, the jaw members including a plurality of calibrated and marked steps (slots) located at a different fixed predetermined height above the desired resection level. Each slot accepts the stylus which may be at least temporarily secured therein. After determining the amount of bone to resect, the stylus is temporarily secured in the appropriate slot (marked as being calibrated to yield the amount of resection desired); and the guide is then clamped onto the patella at the location indicated by the guide/stylus combination, with the stylus resting on the patella in the area where its thickness was measured to establish the depth of cut. After the guide is clamped in position, a sagittal saw is inserted therein to actually perform the resection. During resection, the stylus may be removed from the guide to enhance visibility. The jaws of the guide include a saw capture slot which defines the plane of resection and accepts the saw blade to provide greater control of the cut during the operation. A saw blade insertion guide is also integrated into the resection guide to ease the process of inserting the blade into the capture slot and enhance safety characteristics of the instrument.

Abstract: A fan end bracket (14) for a motorized fan assembly has a plurality of curvilinear tapered air passages (29). Each air passage includes a flow port (30) such that air being moved by a rotating fan assembly is directed through the air passages and the flow ports. A skeletal motor assembly (12) is affixed to one side of the end bracket such that the motor shaft (16) is disposed through a shaft aperture in the end bracket. A rotating fan member (15) is affixed to the motor shaft adjacent to the other side of the end bracket. A shroud member (19) is provided to shroud the rotating fan member so as to cause the flow of air to be directed through the air passages. A baffle plate (18) is interposed between the rotating fan member and the end bracket. The baffle plate includes a plurality of curvilinear scallops (40) which correspond to the air passages in the end bracket. An effective flow port is created between the scallops of the baffle plate and the tapered ramp surfaces (28) of the end brackets so the size of the effective flow port may be adjusted by merely changing the baffle plate so as to optimize the flow and pressure parameters of the fan for a particular motor size.
