Abstract: Afin de combattre l'accumulation de plaque sur la denture, on applique une couche non auto-porteuse d'un polysaccharide non toxique, chargé négativement. Graduellement on sacrifie ou on pratique l'ablation de la couche de polysaccharide pendant l'usure. Il apparaît que l'ablation élimine les microorganismes avec la matière d'enduction. Le polysaccharide se caractérise en outre par un pouvoir de réduction de l'adhérence de cellules Streptococcus salivarius dans un simple test d'adhérence bactérienne in vitro, d'au moins 26 % sur un contrôle.

Abstract: A link utilization control mechanism for a demand assignment satellite communication network employs a modified point-to-point communications protocol (X.25) in order to simulate point-to-point communication ports and thereby interface what is effectively a multidrop network with point-to-point landlink communication resources. Through an acknowledgement reservation mecahsnism the return link channel is subdivided into interleaved data and (preassigned) acknowledgement time slots, in order to substantially obviate ovrhead and throughput penalties encountered in the use of large data packets to transmit reduced size acknowledgement messages. In addition, the normal contention mode of operation of the return link is augmented with a data time slot reservation mechanism through which, during periods of increased message input density at a remote station, transmission throughput is facilitated, so that congestion at the remote station is reduced.

Granted: 1993-08-18
Abstract: A drainage set is proposed, in particular for ureter drainage, with a drainage line (3), a guide mandrel (4) and a slide (5), in which, for optimal control of the line, in particular as regards its angular orientation, but also in order to permit a withdrawal of the line which has been inserted into a body cavity, it is proposed that the guide mandrel (4) should have a thickened area (41) formed integrally thereon, on which thickened area the drainage line (3) can be pushed via its lumen with frictional engagement, and it is proposed that the diameter of the lumen of the slide (5) should be greater than or equal to the diameter of the thickened area (41), but smaller than the external diameter of the drainage line (3). There is also the advantage that drainage lines (3) open on both sides can be positioned in the human body using the arrangement according to the invention. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A conveyor (12) moves the hollow body (esp. bottle) on a circular path through an inspection region, where it is tuned about an axis of symmetry, parallel to the axis of the circular path. A unit (16) illuminates the body in the inspection region. A photodetector receives the light from the body. Plane mirrors (34) are arranged at a given angle to one another in the light path between the inspection region and the photodetector. - The speed of the conveyor and of the rotation of the body are chosen so that the body makes one turn in the inspection zone and 1/n of a turn for each of n mirrors. The angle between one mirror and another, with the plane of the mirror at right angles to the plane of the conveyor tracks, is 1/n of the total angle of the inspection region.

Granted: 1993-08-04
Abstract: An escalator is provided with a curved path of travel from its entry to its exit landings. The path of travel of the escalator steps as seen in plan is a curve having a fixed center and a constant radius from landing to landing. In elevation, each landing portion will be disposed in vertically spaced horizontal planes, and there will be a medial constant slope ascending or descending portion. Interconnecting each landing portion with the constant slope portion will be entry and exit transitional curved portions of varying slope as seen in the elevational view. To enable the steps to traverse the curved path successfully, the effective length of the outer of the step chains is varied at different points along the path of travel of the escalator.

Abstract: The present invention provides a waste removal assembly used in conjunction with a sampling system which provides access to a sealed container. The assembly includes a lifting mechanism which moves a sample container against a hollow cleaning needle. The needle penetrates the stopper of the container, and its penetrating end moves into the container proximate the inside surface of the stopper. The assembly also includes a pump and tube arrangement in communication with the needle for removing or displacing entrapped serum or other debris from the bottom surface of the stopper and placing it in a waste container. After removing the debris from the container, the cleaning assembly vents the cleaned container to atmospheric pressure, and the sampling system performs sampling operations through a puncture tube which defines a temporary opening in the stopper of the container.

Abstract: A joint prosthesis for a human or animal body, comprises first (20) and second (40) components each made of bio-compatible material and adapted for secural to respective bones (13, 14) of the body in the vicinity of a natural joint (16) after surgical excision of the natural joint (16). The components (20, 40) of the prosthesis (12) are unattached to each other and, in use, are held together to form the joint by the natural ligaments, tendons and muscles of the body in the vicinity of the natural joint (16). The first component (20) comprises a stem (21) for reception by a bone cavity and a bulbous head (22) presenting a three-dimensionally curved convex articulation surface (23) which in the sagittal plane has a radius of curvature which changes within the arc length of the surface in that plane and the length of that arc is at least 90°. The second component (40) comprises a stem (41) for reception by a bone cavity and a head (42) presenting a three-dimensionally curved concave articulation surface (43) which is dimensioned to slide over the convex surface (23) substantially along the 90° arc length. This provides flexing movement of the prosthetic joint with the instantaneous centre of rotation of the joint changing during the flexing movement due to the changes of radius of curvature so as to change the distance between the respective bones (13, 14) and thereby allow natural collateral ligament function around the prosthetic joint to aid flexor muscle effect when the joint is extended and extensor muscle effect when the joint is flexed.
