Celui-ci contient le col (24), une tige distale allongée (26) dont la surface de la section transversale est inférieure à environ 1/4 de celle du col (24), et une section conique (28) reliant le col (24) à la tige (26). Une peau en polymère (38) fusionnée à la tige (26) et à la section conique (28) du noyau (22) de manière à les recouvrir est façonnée de manière à s'adapter à la cavité osseuse et à la remplir. Une gaine tressée (34) enveloppe la tige (26) et la section conique (28) du noyau (22) et est noyée dans la peau en polymère (38) à proximité du noyau. Les filaments (36) qui constituent la tresse de la gaine (34) encerclent le noyau en suivant des chemins hélicoïdaux s'étendant le long de la tige (26) et de la section conique (28), en offrant une résistance aux efforts de torsion subis par la tige (26).

Title: Sensor for peracetic acid-hydrogen peroxide solution.
Inventor: COSENTINO LOUIS C
IPC: G01N27/06
Filed: 1991-06-18
Abstract: Concentrations of stock hydrogen peroxide-peracetic acid solutions can be monitored resistively.

Patent EP-0655141-A4 (EP)
Title: Multi-frequency, multi-target vehicular radar system using digital signal processing.
Inventor: ASBURY JIMMIE R
IPC: G01S13/931
Filed: 1993-08-09
Abstract: A vehicular collision avoidance radar system using digital signal processing techniques including a transmit section that generates a two channel transmit frequency. An antenna both transmits the transmit signal and receives a reflected receive signal. A Schottky diode mixer generates a difference signal having a frequency equal to the transmit frequency minus the receive frequency. A signal switch in a front end electronics section time demultiplexes and samples the channel 1 and channel 2 signals. The samples are coupled to a two-channel analog to digital (A/D) converter. A digital electronics section receives the digital information and performs a Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) on each channel of digital data to determine relative speed and range of a target based upon the frequency and the difference in phase of the two channels. The digital electronics section also receives information regarding the status of vehicle operation and/or controls to determine the degree of danger presented by an identified target.

Title: Prosaposin and cytokine-derived peptides as therapeutic agents
Inventor: O'BRIEN JOHN S
IPC: C12N5/0793
Filed: 1994-07-28

Patent EP-0739497-A4 (EP)
Title: Multi-image compositing
Inventor: SUMMER SUSAN KASEN
IPC: G02B27/22
Filed: 1995-01-13
Abstract: Image compositing apparatus and methodology for the creation, in a defined volume of three-dimensional space, of a composite organization of plural images/visual phenomena, including at least one projected real image, displayed in formats including (a) front-to-rear, (b) side-by-side and (c) overlapping and intersecting, adjacency. The apparatus incorporates different unique arrangements of visual sources, and optical elements including concave reflectors, beam splitters and image-forming/image-transmissive scrim/screen structures. In one important modification of the system, which does not necessarily require compositing, a projected real image is derived from an image-producing data stream containing three-dimensional image cues selected from the group consisting of shading, occlusion, perspective, motion parallax, size vs. depth, light (chroma value) vs. depth and definition vs. depth. In a further important modification of the invention, a system is proposed which allows a viewer/user to interact directly with a projected real image, in a manner allowing the manipulation of one or more characteristics or aspects of the image.

Patent EP-0864033-A4 (EP)
Title: Improved device for draining fluid from a container
Inventor: CLARK JAMES E II
IPC: F16K24/02
Filed: 1995-12-01
Abstract: A fluid container draining device for draining fluid from a fluid container, such as an oil filter, in a controlled manner. It has a front threaded screw with a sharpened drill tip. It has an internal channel communicating between an opening at the forward end of the screw and a rear region of the threaded screw. A fluid valve is positioned at the rear region of the screw in fluid connection with the channel. The fluid valve provides fluid flow control between the interior of the fluid container and the outside of the fluid container. The fluid valve has an internally threaded front region which screws into the externally threaded rear region of the screw, and an externally threaded rear region, onto which a fluid evacuation line is to be attached. A turning portion for turning the device into the wall of the container is located on the device. The fluid valve is provided with a fitting for connection to a suction line to thereby permit fluid to be drained from the fluid container when it is coupled with a drain line, and which otherwise remains closed. When the device is drilled into the fluid container, its screw will penetrate the wall of the fluid container and enter the fluid containing region thereof. The fluid valve will only open up when it is connected to a coupler on a suction line, to prevent the accidental release of any of the fluid being drained.
