Abstract: A novel magnetic resonance imaging method is presented to produce a magnetic resonance image, wherein a stationary magnetic field and temporary magnetic gradient fields are applied. A sensitivity distribution (W(p)) maps the receiver sensitivity values of the receiver antennae system in an image domain. Transposition values (p(x)) map the positions in a spatial domain onto pixels (voxels) in the image domain on the basis of actual values of the stationary magnetic field and the temporary gradient fields. A folded image having aliased pixels (voxels) is then reconstructed from the magnetic resonance signals on the basis of a spatial encoding induced by the temporary magnetic field gradients. The aliased pixels (voxels) in the folded image are unfolded on the basis of the spatial receiver sensitivity map onto the respective signal distributions originating from different positions in the spatial domain so as to reconstruct the magnetic resonance image.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, lors d'une commutation entre une sortie de tension d'onde sinusoïdale et une sortie de tension à 6 étapes, il est difficile d'obtenir une commutation en mode lisse, un traitement de commutation compliqué étant alors requis. On résout ce problème au moyen d'un dispositif inverseur MIL comprenant une unité de sortie d'impulsions MIL (2) servant à comparer une instruction de tension de phase avec une onde porteuse triangulaire et à produire en sortie un signal à impulsions MIL, le dispositif comprenant en outre une unité de traitement d'instruction de tension (1) fonctionnant de sorte qu'une phase présentant la valeur absolue maximale soit sélectionnée parmi les instructions de tension de phase. Si l'instruction de tension de phase est supérieure à la valeur maximale de l'onde porteuse, l'instruction de tension de phase soustraite par la valeur maximale de l'onde porteuse est soustraite de chaque instruction de tension de phase. Si cette instruction de tension de phase est plus petite que la valeur minimale de l'onde porteuse, l'instruction de tension de phase soustraite par la valeur minimale de l'onde porteuse est soustraite de chaque instruction de tension de phase. Ainsi, la valeur obtenue par soustraction est utilisée comme chaque instruction de tension de sortie de phase, et, dans les autres cas, l'instruction de tension de phase est utilisée directement comme l'instruction de tension de sortie de phase en vue d'une production en sortie vers l'unité de sortie d'impulsions MIL (2).

Abstract: This patent refers to the coupling of copper pipes and metal tubing sections of other types the coupling ends of which can be prepared by means of the hand press described in this patent prior to the connection to specially made components carrying ring groves and a rubber O-ring for sealing purposes. This new method used for the coupling of copper tubing sections shall hereby be referred to as the HALKIDIS- method. In this method, the copper components (1) (elbows, connectors, etc.) to be connected to a pipe section shall carry two ring groves (a, b) running along the inner circumference of the coupling end of the component. The inner (first) ring grove (a) shall be accommodating a rubber O-ring (e) for sealing purposes. The outer (second) ring grove (b) nearest to the edge of the coupling end of the component shall also carry two guiding sections - (in/out) grove sections (b') - (perpendicular to the said second ring grove) and having a semi­circular or rectangular cross-section. The copper pipe section shall carry one or two protuberances (c) formed by the technician on its external surface by means of the special hand press. The two hemispherical (or dash-like) protuberances of the copper pipe (2) shall first be aligned with the two semi-cylindrical (or rectangular) guiding sections (b') of the component and then the pipe shall be pushed into the component until the protuberances reach the second ring grove. Once aligned with the second ring grove, the protuberances shall then be rotated (by rotating the pipe) in either direction by less than 180 degrees, thus achieving secure coupling of the two (pipe and component) (2, 1) since now the pipe can not move in or out of the coupling end of the component any longer.
