Patent EP-1378202-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LIZARDI JOSE E
IPC: A61B17/72
Filed: 2003-06-26
Abstract: A suture anchor (500) for affixing soft tissue to bone. The anchor has a hollow
outer member (510), and an actuation member (550) slidably mounted within the outer
member. The actuation member (550) has at least two engagement members (590) that are
pivotally mounted to the actuation member (550). Proximal movement of the actuation
member with respect to the outer member causes the engagement members to
move outward to a deployed position, wherein the engagement members are
deployed in bone. A surgical suture (180) is mounted to the anchor.

Abstract: An access system (ACC1) for relating service providers (SP1-SPn) to users (U11-Um1) includes an edge access server (EAS) connecting the service providers and penults (P1-Pk) connecting the users. User devices (UD11-UD14) are connected via VLAN:s to a user ports (UP11) on the penult. The edge access server has service agents (SA1-SAn), an administrator (AD1) and a broadcast handler (BH1), which forms a handling system together with handlers (H1-Hk) in the penults. A user (U11) decision including VLAN, service (SP1) and user port (UP11) is sent to the administrator (AD1), which dynamically allocates to the relevant service agent (SA1) a MAC address, defining a relation (R11). A user device (UD11) broadcasts a DHCP request unicasted together with user port (UP11) to the braoadcast handler (BH1). The user device (UD11) gets its IP address and IP address to the service agent (SA1). The device (UD11) broadcasts an ARP request which is unicasted by the penult (P1), to get the MAC address to the service agent (SA1). The relations (R11, R21) are secure and can easily be controled.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and a device for testing a hollow body in order to determine the correctness of the embodiment of cavities with respect to the geometric design thereof. The inventive method consists in positioning an acoustical source at a predetermined point and in producing an acoustical output signal. Said acoustical signal emitted by the hollow body is received in the predetermined acoustic transmit positions and analysed. The deviation between the acoustical signals or between calculated physical quantities such as amplitude frequency response, frequency phase response, transmission functions and similar quantities which are determined on the parts of the tested correctly embodied cavities makes it possible to judge the correctness of the embodiment of the cavity of a sample.

Abstract: A method of motion-compensated video encoding that enables a video sequence with a global motion component to be encoded in an efficient manner. A video encoder (600) is arranged to assign macroblocks to be coded to specific coding modes including a skip mode, which is used to indicate one of two possible types of macroblock motion: (a) zero motion, or (b) global or regional motion. As each macroblock is encoded, a previously encoded region surrounding the macroblock is examined and the characteristics of motion in that region determined. With the skip mode, the macroblock to be coded and a motion vector describing the global motion or regional motion is associated with the macroblock if the motion in the region is characteristic of global motion or regional motion. If the region exhibits an insignificant level of motion, a zero valued motion vector is associated with the macroblock.
