Patent EP-0929005-A2 (EP)
Inventor: MASHTARE DALE R
IPC: G03G15/08
Filed: 1999-01-07
Abstract: An apparatus in which the developability and interactivity of electrostatically charged
particles in a mixture of particulate material is measured. The sensor apparatus includes a
transparent member positioned closely adjacent to a developer roller of an
electrophotographic printing machine. Electrostatically charged particles are attracted from
the particulate mixture being transported by the developer roller to the member. A beam of
energy is transmitted through the member. The intensity of the intemally reflected beam is
detected and a signal generated indicative of the quantity of charged particles adhering to
the member. A cleaning field bias is applied, to determine if a signal indicative of the charge
particles being removed (interactivity) from the member is generated.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for analyzing the results of determinations of the
concentrations of medically significant components of control solutions comprise
providing a programmable machine, executing on the machine a program which tests the
results against a set of statistical quality control rules, and producing indications to an
operator of the results of the tests. Illustratively, (a) laboratory analytical instrument(s)
run(s) the control solutions interspersed among patient samples, the concentrations of
medically significant components of which are determined by the laboratory instrument(s).
The quality of the laboratory instrument's(s') process(es) for determining the
concentrations of the medically significant components of the patient samples are
monitored by testing the outcomes of the concentration determinations of the control
solutions against the set of QC rules. The QC testing process is conducted as the
concentrations of the medically significant components of the control solutions are
determined, so that delays between the determination of the concentrations of the
medically significant components of the patient samples and the determination of the state
of control of the process(es) by which those concentrations are determined are minimized.

Abstract: A fail-safe fluid transfer control circuit includes at least one switch that must be
closed to provide power to a pump or valve that enables fluid transfer and at least one
controller that monitors the switched state (i.e. open or closed) of each of the switches.
The controller also responds to a number of the inputs with regard to enabling or
disabling fluid flow, including signals from at least one overfill probe that outputs a signal
indicative of when the fluid level in a container being filled has reached a particular
level. The controller automatically detects which of a number of known probe types is
connected to it, including "five-wire" probes, "two-wire" probes and thermistor probes.
The controller first tests for signals indicative of a first probe type and, if not detected,
the controller looks for signals indicative of a second probe type. If the second probe
type signals are not detected, the controller may configure itself for use with the third

Abstract: An electronic timepiece in which errors in detection of the 24 o'clock
position are avoided regardless of forward or reverse rotation of the 24 o'clock
wheel (211). An electrically conductive contact spring (301) is attached to the
wheel (211) and rotates therewith relative to a series of circumferentially disposed
electrode patterns (501, 502, 503). The series of signals generated by sliding
contact of the spring (301) with the electrodes (501, 502, 503) enables forward
and reverse rotation of the wheel (211) to be distinguished and thus enables
precise detection of the 24 o'clock position.

Abstract: A bidirectional steerable catheter comprises a catheter body, a tip section and a control
handle. The catheter body has a tubular wall, proximal and distal ends, and at least one
lumen extending therethrough. The tip section comprises flexible tubing having proximal and
distal ends and at least one lumen extending therethrough. The proximal end of the tip section
is fixedly attached to the distal end of the catheter body. The control handle is mounted at
its distal end to the proximal end of the catheter body. The control handle comprises a
housing having proximal and distal ends. A distal piston is mounted in the distal end of the
housing and fixedly attached to the proximal end of the catheter body. The distal piston is
slidably movable relative to the housing. First and second proximal pistons are mounted in
the housing proximal to the distal piston. Each of the proximal pistons is slidably movable
relative between proximal and distal positions to the housing. The control handle further
comprises a movable member capable of selectively and releasably engaging one of the
proximal pistons to prevent slidable movement of that engaged proximal piston relative to the
housing while allowing slidable movement of the other non-engaged proximal piston relative
to the housing so that proximal movement of the housing relative to the distal piston and
catheter body results in proximal movement of the engaged proximal piston relative to the
distal piston and catheter body. The catheter further comprises a pair of puller wires having
proximal and distal ends. Each puller wire extends from the control handle, through a lumen
in the catheter body and into an off axis lumen in the tip section. The distal end of each
puller wire is fixedly attached to the tip section, and the proximal end of each puller wire is
anchored to a separate associated proximal piston in the control handle. In practice, proximal
movement of the selectively engaged proximal piston and its associated puller wire relative
to the catheter body results in deflection of the tip section in the direction of the off axis
lumen into which that associated puller wire extends.
