Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of manufacturing artificial tooth restorations for natural teeth or implants comprising a ceramic densely sintered high strength individual core (B) with dental porcelain (A) by powder metallurgical manufacturing methods. The inner surface (I) of the core (B), which will fit against one or more prepared tooth surfaces (P) or artificial abutments is manufactured by forming a ceramic powder mixture against a surface of a body at which said surface is manufactured by registering the surfaces of the prepared teeth or artificial abutments and their mutual relationship with a three dimensional optical or mechanical reading method directly in the mouth or on a model in e.g. plaster after which the registered surfaces are reproduced in an enlarged size e.g. with a computer controlled milling machine at which the enlargement is calculated from the shrinkage of the ceramic material during sintering to full density and considering the gap for cement.

Title: Mass spectrometry method with two applied trapping fields having same spatial form
Inventor: KELLEY PAUL E
IPC: H01J49/42
Filed: 1994-05-25
Abstract: A mass spectrometry method in which an improved field comprising two or more trapping fields having substantially identical spatial form is established and at least one parameter of the improved field is changed to excite selected trapped ions sequentially, for example for detection. The improved field can also include a supplemental field of different spatial form. The changing improved field can sequentially eject selected ones of the trapped ions from the improved field for detection (or other purposes). An improved field comprising two quadrupole trapping fields can be established in a region defined by the ring and end electrodes of a three-dimensional quadrupole ion trap, and the amplitude of an RF (and/or DC) component (and/or the frequency of the RF component) of one or both trapping fields can be changed to sequentially excite trapped ions. Alternatively, a trapping field capable of storing ions having mass to charge ratio within a selected range is established, a supplemental field is superimposed with the trapping field to eject unwanted ions having mass-to-charge ratio within a second selected range from the improved field, the supplemental field having frequency components in one frequency range from a first frequency up to a notch frequency band and in another frequency range from the notch frequency band up to second frequency, and an improved field is then established by superimposing the trapping field with a second trapping field of substantially identical spatial form. Preferably, the relative phase of two or more component fields of the improved field is controlled to achieve an optimal combination of mass resolution, sensitivity, and mass peak stability.

Filed: 1994-06-17
Abstract: A compression/decompression system includes a source (10) of non-interlaced scanned video signal. A preprocessor (12) constructs interlaced scanned video signal from the non-interlaced scanned video signal by selection of alternate lines of successive non-interlaced image signals. The interlaced scanned video signal is compressed (14) according to known methods to generate primary compressed video data. The primary data is decompressed (22) by known processes, inverse to the compression processes, to regenerate the interlaced scanned frames. Interlaced scanned video signal, corresponding to the intervening lines of the non-interlaced scanned video signal, which were not included in the primary interlaced scanned video signal, is predicted (24) from the decompressed frames of video signal. In addition the intervening lines of the original non-interlaced scanned video signal, which were not included in the primary interlaced scanned video signal, are formed (20) into secondary interlaced scanned video signal. The secondary video signal is subtracted (26) from the predicted video signal to generate secondary field residues. These residues are compressed (30) by known methods to form compressed secondary video data. The primary and secondary compressed data are thereafter transmitted (18, 34; 40, 42) for reception by either interlaced scanned receivers or non-interlaced scanned receivers.

Title: Lead retention and seal for implantable medical device
Inventor: STUTZ WILLIAM H JR
IPC: A61N1/375
Filed: 1994-10-17
Abstract: This invention is a lead connector seal and locking assembly for an implantable pulse generator such as a pacemaker. The pulse generator includes a header portion (24) and an enclosed metallic housing or can (22), wherein the header portion includes an orifice (26) for receiving a lead connector (30). The lead connector (30) is secured within the orifice by a defeasible active seal and a locking mechanism, which includes a sphincter seal (52) and a beveled washer (54) which is forced against the sphincter seal upon insertion of an actuator. The actuator may be a forked clip (56) inserted into a slot formed within the epoxy header in such a manner that prongs of the clip force the beveled cam to be displaced axially within the orifice of the header portion, compressing the sphincter seal to bulge radially outward and inward, thereby simultaneously contacting and sealing against the inside wall of the orifice and the body of the connector.

Title: Autostereoscopic imaging apparatus and method using a parallax scanning lens aperture
Inventor: BACS ARON JR
IPC: H04N13/221
Filed: 1994-10-26
Abstract: A lens aperture of an autostereoscopic camera is moved in a parallax scanning pattern through a plurality of disparity positions offset from the optical axis of the camera lens. Images of a scene being photographed, as viewed through the lens aperture in its various disparity positions, are recorded for subsequent display in three-dimensional illusion when viewed with the unaided eye. The size of the lens aperture and the parallax scanning pattern are adjustable to suit conditions. The lens aperture may be defined as a through-hole in an opaque card or a planar array of cells switched between transparent and opaque states. In addition to stereoscopic imaging, the moving lens aperture principle of the present invention may be utilized in range-finding and camera image stabilization applications.
