Abstract: The online support system of the present invention provides each user with possible resolutions and operations to eliminate problems and troubles arising in a device of the user in the form of Web pages. The online support system allows the user to gain access to a Web page defined by the URL, which is specified according to user's input information, for example, the model name of the device, the nation, the operating system, and the type of a problem. Possible resolutions and operations against a specific problem, which are prepared in advance, are then displayed for self help on the browser. The operations and resolutions are provided in a stepwise manner in response to user's instructions until the problem is eliminated. When the problem is not eliminated by any of the possible operations and resolutions, the online support system displays an E mail (electronic mail) transmission form. The transmission form allows the user to gain E mail support. The user inputs regular pieces of information generally required for the support and arbitrary pieces of information with regard to the specific problem in the transmission form. Data processed by the device and a browsing log of the possible operations and resolutions against the specific problem are also added to such information. This online support system enables the user to effectively use both self support by the possible resolutions and operations prepared in advance and the E mail support, thus efficiently eliminating the problem arising in the device of the user. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Un récepteur de décodeur et procédé de télévision par câble comprennent une composante logicielle et un procédé d'acquisition de fréquence destinés à déterminer la capacité du système d'exploitation/programme de commande dans le récepteur du décodeur afin d'exploiter le récepteur du décodeur. La composante logicielle, appelée 'chargeur-amorce' fonctionne sur le processeur contenu dans le récepteur du décodeur et détermine la capacité ainsi que la version du système d'exploitation/programme de commande du récepteur de décodeur. Si le chargeur/amorce détermine que le système d'exploitation/programme de commande doit être actualisé, le chargeur-amorce entame une séquence de téléchargement, dont l'exécution permet de télécharger le système d'exploitation/programme de commande correct vers le récepteur du décodeur. Le téléchargement a lieu après réception, par le récepteur du décodeur, d'une table de versions de codes (CVT). La table CVT contient des informations que le récepteur du décodeur utilise afin de déterminer sur quelle fréquence s'accorder afin de recevoir le système d'exploitation/programme de commande de remplacement. Selon un autre aspect de l'invention, le chargeur-amorce entame une séquence de recherche de fréquence afin de déterminer la fréquence correcte sur laquelle s'accorder afin de recevoir la table CVT. La séquence de recherche de fréquence couvre tout le spectre des fréquences possibles sur lesquelles recevoir la table CVT.

Abstract: A surgical instrument for introducing a support strand into the body to treat female urinary incontinence has an elongated, curved shaft with a distal end insertable into the body. The shaft has a lumen therein extending at least a portion of the length of the shaft through which the support strand may pass in an axial direction. The shaft has a slot on an exterior surface thereof communicating with the lumen allowing the support strand to be laterally passed between the lumen to a position outside the shaft. A pointed element, is removably positionable on the distal end of the shaft for facilitating the insertion of the shaft through the body and is connectable at one end to the support strand. The pointed element may either be swaged directly to the strand or be in the form of an elongated needle with an eye to which the strand is removably attached. In an associated method, the shaft sequentially delivers the pointed element through the body twice, forming a loop around the urethra to relieve incontinence. The slot in the shaft permits the instrument to be disassociated from the strand without disturbing the loop.

Abstract: The invention is a process for desalting aqueous solutions, which are initially acidified to a pH of about 3 or less. Then, the acidified solution is fed into a desalting compartment of an electrodeionization cell which contains a suitable ion exchange material and is isolated from an adjacent concentrating compartments by an anion and a cation exchange membrane. The concentrate compartment contains a netting or another suitable material that promotes turbulence in a flowing feed stream. Water is supplied to the concentrate compartment. A DC current passes through the electrodeionization cell to produce a substantial desalination of the feed solution. A less acidic desalted solution and a concentrate waste solution are withdrawn from the electrodeionization cell.

Abstract: To provide a user-friendly drum type washing/drying machine with which loading/unloading of laundry is easy, in which a large outer tub and a housing regulated in size are realized by using a space in the housing effectively. In the drum type washing/drying machine, a drum 23, which rotates about an axis C extending along the lateral direction, is enclosed in the outer tub 20 disposed in the housing. The housing has an opening formed on the top and leads to a throw-in opening for loading the laundry in the drum 23, the throw-in opening formed on the peripheral wall of the drum 23. A main shaft 24 positioned on the axis C is supported by a first bearing and driven by a direct drive type motor 30. A heat exchanger 42 to which a water pipe for supplying cooling water is connected and a drying air channel including a heater 48 are disposed on the side of the outer tub 20 opposite to the side on which the main shaft 24 and the motor are disposed. Heated air is blown into the outer tub 20 through openings 29a formed around an auxiliary shaft 25. Thus, the space between the outer tub 20 and the housing is effectively used, thereby achieving an excellent weight balance of the outer tub 20. <IMAGE>
