Patent EP-1909048-A1 (EP)
Inventor: VENKATASUBRAMANIAM CHADALAVADA
IPC: F25B43/02
Filed: 2006-10-06
Abstract: An oil-free refrigerant circulation technology for air-conditioning and refrigeration system comprises 99.99% oil-vapor free refrigeration oil, 100% ultra micron oil-aerosol separator built-in with oil reservoir and electronic modulating oil level analyzer. The ultra micron oil-aerosol separator can filter solid contaminant particles down to one micron in size and at the same time can deliver 100% oil-aerosol free refrigerant. With this technology an oil-free refrigerant circulation can be achieved. The problems related to oil carry over, thermal and chemical stability, moisture, oil cleanliness and lubrication in the refrigeration circulation could therefore be avoided. As a result, the energy consumption of the refrigeration system can be largely reduced and the refrigeration efficiency of the system can be significantly enhanced. Thus COP is increased by the use of oil-free refrigerant circulation technology.

Abstract: The present invention provides devices for controlled delivery of a therapeutic agent to an internal cavity of the ear, particularly to the inner ear. In general, the invention uses a drug delivery unit for inner ear treatment which employs a portion of carrier media material containing one or more therapeutic agents therein. The carrier media material is designed to release the therapeutic agents in a controlled manner over time. The drug delivery unit is shaped and sized for placement of at least a portion thereof in the round window niche of a patient. The released therapeutic agents come in contact with the round window membrane and pass therethrough into the inner ear for treatment purposes. This system provides many benefits ranging from the ability to deliver drugs in a site specific, highly controlled manner to the transfer of such materials with minimal patient discomfort and monitoring requirements.

Abstract: An external I/F gives numerical information on an imaging device, input from PC or PLC, to a memory. The memory outputs the numerical information to CPU as well as retaining the numerical information. CPU transmits the numerical information through a camera to an operation control unit. The operation control unit performs correction using a correction value from a correction table. In order to correct a variation individually possessed by a lens unit or an illumination unit, the correction table is previously produced for each lens unit or illumination unit based on the numerical information from the camera. The post-correction control signals are output to a lens unit 62 and an illumination unit.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant de distribuer une quantité fixe prédéterminée de film préétiré sur la base de la circonférence d'une charge. Un anneau non rotatif porte une courroie (130) entraînée par un moteur (132). Un distributeur (136) de film est monté sur un anneau rotatif (122), ledit anneau comprenant une poulie (168) reliée à la courroie, de sorte que l'anneau rotatif est entraîné par la courroie. Sur la base de la circonférence de la charge à emballer, une quantité de film préétiré à distribuer pour chaque révolution de l'anneau est déterminée. On obtient de bonnes performances d'emballage du point de vue de l'enveloppement de la charge (force d'emballage) et de l'utilisation optimale du film en distribuant une longueur de film préétiré comprise entre environ 100 % et environ 130 % de la circonférence de la charge. Une fois déterminée la quantité de film devant être distribuée par révolution, le rapport mécanique entraînement de l'anneau/ vitesse de la surface finale de film préétiré (c.-à-d. le nombre de révolutions/tours d'anneau de film préétiré) peut être fixé. De cette manière, pour chaque révolution de l'anneau rotatif et du distributeur, la quantité fixe prédéterminée de film est distribuée et enveloppée autour de la charge.
