Abstract: A multifunction steering-wheel is prepared for incorporating a device to select an unlimited number of functions. The device is constituted by a floating wheel, housed in a position of the steering-wheel easily accessible for the driver, in association with an intermediate wheel and a means for securing stably the wheel in the chosen position. A mechanically operated switch permits confirmation of the selection made. The generation of two signals out of phase by a small angle, permits two microprocessors to perform, respectively, the encoding of the signals received and the allocation of an output associated with each function selected. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An implantable medical device comprises a housing (52) having a proximal end and a distal end and a longitudinal axis. A first set of anchoring members are operatively connected to the proximal end of the housing. A second set of anchoring members are operatively connected to the distal end of the housing. The first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members are movable between a collapsed position and a deployed position. The collapsed position is defined as a position whereby the first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members are substantially parallel to the longitudinal axis of the housing. The deployed position is defined as a position whereby the first set of anchoring members and the second set of anchoring members are substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the housing.

Abstract: An array of probes is provided wherein the probes are maintained in place in bores extending through a housing by a friction force applied to the probes. The friction force can be overcome by another force applied to the probes, thereby allowing the probes to move to a new position within the bore. In one embodiment, the probes contain an internal conduit through which liquid samples are introduced into the probes. Thereafter, the probes are moved to contact a substrate surface to move the probes to a new position, the configuration of which replicates the substrate surface configuration. The housing is then raised a predetermined distance to allow sample to be accurately deposited on the substrate surface from a desired height above the substrate surface. The probes are then returned to their original position.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of concealing errors in an image signal 101 transmitted in a macroblock compressed form. The method comprises a decoding step 102, a step 103 of detecting an erroneous macroblock, a classifying step and a correcting step 109 of correcting the erroneous macroblock in accordance with its class. The invention provides a cost effective classifying step. To this end, the classifying step consists of computing a gradient, in step 104, for each valid surrounding macroblock, for each pixel of a line or a column adjacent to the erroneous macroblock, evaluating the number of direction changes Cdir of the gradient in step 107, comparing the gradients with a first and a second threshold in steps 105 and 106, and classifying the erroneous macroblock in step 108 in accordance with the results of steps 104 to 107. The present invention is particularly relevant for correcting MPEG-compressed video signals, especially in systems where resource problems occur, for example, in mobile phones.

Abstract: A papermaker's fabric, usable in the forming section of a paper machine, has three layers of cross-machine-direction (CD) wefts. The forming layer wefts are grouped into pairs. This twinning of the top-layer wefts results in non-equal spacing in the forming (top) layer. This spacing imparts a desired non-uniformity in the web-supporting surface, thereby reducing diagonal fabric pattern. The forming layer wefts are vertically offset from the middle and wear side layer wefts, which are vertically stacked. This unstacked alignment reduces the caliper of the fabric and lowers the void volume. The middle layer wefts provide extra stability in the CD.

Abstract: The invention relates to a stackable carrier for growing material, such as pot plants, cuttings and plants placed in trays, comprising a substantially rectangular flat plate (35); and supports (36) extending transversely of the plate from the short sides of the plate for the purpose of supporting the carrier in a stack of carriers. This measure results in simplified handling of the carriers with the plants placed thereon. The carriers with the plants can be easily stacked on top of one another from above, wherein this is avoided in horizontal direction between the vertical posts of the Danish trolleys. Such operations therefore entail less effort. The invention furthermore provides the option of the grower using the carriers for his internal transport and even as carrier for the plants on the seedbeds. The supports preferably extend upward from the plate and the carrier comprises a frame extending at least at the periphery and a plate placed separately inside the frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermostatic mixing valve in which the access path of the hot water to the mixing chamber is completely formed within a bottom base (2) and the ceramic disks (4, 5) of the valve group, the slider (8) of the thermostatic member sealingly sliding in a central seat of the upper disk (5). By having the hot water not pass through the metallic members of the valve it is possible to eliminate the problems of asymmetric thermal expansion of said metallic members when only hot water is delivered, and also to greatly reduce the problems of calcareous encrustations since the latter build up with difficulty on the ceramic material. Furthermore, the valve is manufactured with a compact and simplified structure, including a small number of pieces, with totally independent temperature and flow rate controls.

Abstract: The invention is a pre-charged, disposable syringe capable of use by patients. The syringe has a housing with a cover having a central aperture which receives an actuator button. The actuator button extends to an internal piston which is mounted over a medication ampoule. The ampoule has a dependent hypodermic needle which is slidably received in the housing and moves between recessed and projected positions. In its recessed position, the ampoule is totally contained within the housing, and in its projected position, the hypodermic needle projects from the housing. The housing contains an actuator spring, which is compressed and biased to move the piston and the ampoule into its projected position. The medication is discharged from the ampoule by the mechanically coupled piston, or by the release of air from an internal air pressure chamber. The actuator button is locked for safety with a detent and plastic ring or a trigger safety stylet and is covered with a protective, removable cap to prevent accidental or unintended injection of the medication.

Abstract: Numbers standing for cash money can be spent only one time each, otherwise the account from which they were withdrawn would be revealed. More generally, a technique for issuing and showing blind digital signatures ensures that if they are shown responsive to different challenges, then certain information their signer ensures they contain will be revealed and can be recovered efficiently. Some embodiments allow the signatures to be unconditionally untraceable if shown no more than once. Extensions allow values to be encoded in the signatures when they are shown, and for change on unshown value to be obtained in a form that is aggregated and untraceable.
