Abstract: Process for manufacturing cold formed shaped forms of packaging having at le ast one recess from a metal-plastic laminate 20. Examples of such shaped forms of packaging  are the base parts of push-through packs or blister packs. The process is such that the l aminate 20 is held between a retaining tool 5 and a die 1. The die 1 exhibits at least one open ing 8 and a stamp 6 is driven into the die opening 8 causing the laminate to be shape-formed i nto a packaging, correspondingly exhibiting one or more recesses.  The die 1 and the retaining tool 5 exhibit facing edge regions 11,12 and the  die 1, within the edge region 11, exhibits a shoulder region 13 that surrounds the die opening  8 or openings 8. The surface of the shoulder region 13 lies 0.01 to 10 mm lower than the surf ace of the edge region 11 of the die 1, and a first stamp 6 or first stamps 6 with high fric tion forming surface form the metal-plastic laminate in one or more steps down to 100 % of the fi nal depth of the recess and subsequently a second stamp 6 or stamps 6 with low friction formi ng surface perform the final forming of the laminate 20 in one or more steps to at leas t 100 % of the final depth of the recess.

Filed: 1996-03-18
Granted: 2001-10-02
Abstract: A plurality of microminiature light sources (10, 10') are injected at a treatment site to effect photodynamic therapy (PDT). Each of the microminiature light source beads includes an LED chip (12), a rectifier chip (14), and a plurality of electromagnetic receivers (18, 18') encapsulated within a biocompatible, light transmitting material such as silicone, forming a spherical bead that is only a few millimeters in diameter. The light source beads are sufficiently small so that they can be injected into a treatment site such as a tumor (46) from a syringe (58) through a needle (60). A  photoreactive agent, which can serve as a carrier fluid for the microminiature light source beads, sensitizes the tissue at the treatment site so that light emitted by the LED chip when energized with an external electromagnetic transmitter (34) kills the tissue or other pathogens at the treatment site that have absorbed the photoreactive agent. Alternatively, a catheter (66) can be used for emplacing the microminiature light source beads at the treatment site.

Abstract: In an information transmission method, error robustness is provided for the bit stream itself so that decoding processing can be properly performed even in the event of an error in important information such as header information. A bit stream reconstruction circuit (107) in an encoding apparatus adds sync signals to the heads of encoded data streams, which are encoded by an encoder (103), in certain bit stream units, and then inserts designation information in each bit stream by using a designation information insertion circuit (106). Each designation information indicates the addition of information for reconstructing impor-tant header information. By inserting the designation information in the bit stream obtained, reconstruction information can be added to the bit stream. Even if, therefore, an error is introduced into the header information, and the information cannot be used for decoding processing, the decoding processing can be properly continued by using the new reconstruction information designated by the designation information as a substitute.

Abstract: An actuator is connected to one of components forming a power transmitting device capable of transmitting a power provided by a valve operating cam provided on a cam shaft, so that the actuator can drive an engine valve in a lift amount which is obtained by addition of a lift amount of the engine valve based on a cam profile of the valve operating cam and a lift amount of the engine valve based on the operation of the actuator.  Thus, a portion of the lift amount of the engine valve is borne by the valve operating cam, whereby a valve-opening power borne by the actuator can be reduced, as compared with a system designed so that the engine valve is driven by only the actuator only.  The amount of electric power consumed by the actuator can be smaller.

Abstract: A method of equalizing the channels of a WDM link comprises identifying an error threshold level BER Fail for the BER defined for each signal S(j) in accordance with the channel rate, and determining the attenuation A(j) of, for example, the power P(j) of each signal S(j) transmitted over the WDM link. The transmitter powers are adjusted taking into account the attenuations determined for all channels. The attenuation A(j) for channel (j) is determined by first setting the power P(j) of all signals S(j) to a maximum P Max, attenuating the power P(j) of channel (j) until the BER reaches the threshold value BER Fail, measuring the power corresponding to the BER Fail for that channel, and calculating the difference between the P Max and P(j)Fail. The transmitter powers are then set according to the relationship P(j)=P Max-~ (A(j)-A Min), where ~ is 0.8 for a system with 3-4 channels. The method may be used for multi-channel systems with intermediate nodes where channels are added and dropped.

Granted: 2002-11-26
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé ainsi qu'un agencement émetteur servant au sondage de trous de forage (4). L'émetteur comprend une boucle conductrice (1) située dans la terre et alimentée par un courant dont la forme d'onde comprend au moins une basse fréquence (par exemple 200-3000 Hz). La fréquence est pilotée par quartz et normalisée sur des signaux temporels à partir de satellites GPS. Le récepteur comprend des enroulements fonctionnant pour détecter des changement de champ possédant les mêmes fréquences que celles de l'émetteur, il est logé dans la sonde (6), laquelle est abaissée au moyen d'une tige classique de forage (5), et il n'a pas de connexion signaux avec l'émetteur. Au lieu de cela, la sonde comprend une horloge à quartz précise, fréquemment étalonnée et permettant une détermination synthétique de la phase du signal reçu par rapport à la phase du signal émis, par exemple au moyen d'un processeur de signaux. Etant donné que l'on utilise une tige classique de forage, le trou de forage peut prendre n'importe quelle direction choisie et peut même être bloqué par de la boue, de la bouillie, etc., ce qui permet d'éliminer le risque que la sonde ne se bloque dans une roche pauvre, comme c'est le cas avec les sondes portées par des conduites.
