Abstract: The invention concerns a method and an apparatus for monitoring a condition of a patient under anesthesia or sedation. For this purpose there is a sensor for acquiring a signal that represents peripheral cardiovascular flow in the patient. Successive heart beat pulses are detected and predetermined pulse wave parameters are measured repeatedly in said signal, and predefined pulse wave parameters within said heart beat pulses are measured, too. At first, said predetermined pulse wave parameters in a number of successive heart beat pulses are compared in respect to possible occurence of a substantial alteration. At second, if the alteration is noticed, a statistical reference value is calculated by deriving values from at least said predefined pulse wave parameters, and the change(s) between at least one predefined pulse wave parameter and said reference value is quantified. The results and/or intermediate results are finally displayed and/or recorded.

Abstract: Percussion device, includes a housing and two movable bodies, an impact body for an impact pin protruding from the housing, and a balancing body for counterbalancing impact motions of the impact body. The housing includes springs, which constantly strive to bring the bodies towards each other and against the action of which the bodies may be separated axially. The balancing body is rotatable, via a drive spindle connected to a driving source the spindle being mounted in a bearing member, at least one of the bodies including an oblique surface, which, by contact against the other body, transforms the rotary motion of the balancing body into axial motions of the impact body. Rotation of the bearing member is prevented by a helical pressure spring attached to the bearing member and the housing. In this way, tangential vibrations cannot be transferred from the drive spindle to the housing.

Abstract: A glow starter for fluorescent lamp and the corresponding lighting fixtures
therefor are disclosed. The unique glow bottle of the invention comprises a stem
assembly (1) having a short lead wire (2), a bimetal sheet (3) spot-welded on the
short lead wire, and a long lead wire (4); an envelope (5), said stem assembly (1)
being sealed within said envelope; and discharge gas (6) filled in the envelope (5)
after vacuumization; the short lead wire (2) is coated with cesium-based
compound (8) and a glass, ceramics or metal lantern ring(9) is disposed around
the short lead wire (2). According to the invention, metal cesium with low work
function is adopted, so the starting under a completely dark condition is
implemented by means of field emission, and the requirements of environment
protection are fully met because of replacing the radioactive material of the prior
art with cesium-based compound; the release amount of cesium is controlled by
using the lantern-ring structure, thus the electrical performance of the glow starter
can comply with the regulations of the national or international standard.

Abstract: A post-injection amount  A  required for forced regeneration of a particulate
filter is calculated. A ratio  B  of a residual gas remaining in an inter-cylinder
combustion chamber when post injection is performed and a wall surface adhering
ratio  C  of a fuel adhering to the wall surface of a cylinder when the post-injection is
performed are calculated. A post-injection amount  D  to be actually injected is
calculated on the basis of the residual gas ratio  B  and the wall surface adhering ratio
 C , i.e., a ratio of a fuel which does not contribute to increase in exhaust temperature
nor to the forced regeneration of the particulate filter and the already calculated
required post-injection amount  A . Then, the post-injection is performed with the
calculated required injection amount  D . Because the post-injection amount is
determined by taking into consideration the fact that a part of a post-injected fuel may
remain in a combustion chamber or adhere to the wall surface of a cylinder and thus
does not contribute to increase in exhaust temperature, the precision of the forced
regeneration of the particulate filter is improved and its effects can be exhibited.

Axial and radial wall thickness distribution of a parison are adjustable independently of each other and according to a program specific to the product. Volumetric flow rate can be varied during extrusion. An independent claim is included for an extrusion head comprising a housing (3) and a mandrel(4) which move axially in relation to each other and a die body(7) forming an annular gap(10) with the mandrel. Annular channels(13,14) feed a second melt extrudate concentrically into the nozzle area and a mechanism allows adjustment of the mandrel relative to nozzle outlet(8) in a plane transverse to the extrusion direction.

Abstract: A method and circuit to improve the stability of low dropout voltage
regulators having an adaptive biased driving stage. Said improvement of
stabilization is valid through the total range of output current
possible. A serial impedance is added to the gate capacitance of the
PMOS pass device of said LDO. Said serial impedance could be a resistor
or a transistor. In case of low load currents said impedance is not
dominating, for high load currents said impedance keeps the gate pole
close to the resonance frequency of the output tank. In case of medium
load currents, wherein the inner resistance of the driving stage is about
equal to said serial impedance, the gate pole could get too low. This
problem is solved by reducing said serial impedance by shunting. Said
shunting can be performed stepwise using additional parallel impedances
depending on the size of the load current. A special circuitry detects
the condition of medium load currents and can initialize the shunting of
said serial impedance accordingly in order to keep the gate pole on the
optimum frequency.
