Patent EP-1023728-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FIELDER LOUIS DUNN
IPC: G10L19/02
Filed: 1998-10-15
Abstract: Several audio signal processing techniques may be used in various combinations to improve the quality of audio represented by an information stream formed by splice editing two or more other information streams. The techniques are particularly useful in applications that bundle audio information with video information. In one technique, gain-control words conveyed with the audio information stream are used to interpolate playback sound levels across a splice. In another technique, special filterbanks or forms of TDAC transforms are used to suppress aliasing artifacts on either side of a splice. In yet another technique, special filterbanks or crossfade window functions are used to optimize the attenuation of spectral splatter created at a splice. In a further technique, audio sample rates are converted according to frame lengths and rates to allow audio information to be bundled with, for example, video information. In yet a further technique, audio blocks are dynamically aligned so that proper synchronization can be maintained across a splice. An example for 48 kHz audio with NTSC video is discussed.

Inventor: MANTHORP JOHN H
IPC: A61B17/08

Abstract: A cranial spring clip for attaching a bone flap to a skull is disclosed. The clip includes a substantially flat flap clipping portion, a substantially flat skull clipping portion, an extension disposed between, connecting, and substantially perpendicular to the flap clipping and the skull clipping portions, at least one burr attached to the extension, and a fastening element. When the clip is implanted, the topography of the flap clipping and skull clipping portions, the only parts of the clip above the outer table of the skull, provides the clip with a low profile. At least a portion of the extension is resilient in nature so that, the resilient portion flexes inward upon insertion in the saw gap and then flexes back to fix the clip in place. The burr penetrates the skull to also fix the clip in place. As the extension has a length that is shorter than the thickness of the skull and the bone flap, there is minimal possibility of accidental injury to the brain. The fastening element can be located on the extension so that it is substantially perpendicular to the extension when implanted. Alternatively, the fastening element is located on the flap clipping portion so that it is substantially perpendicular to the flap clipping portion. In one embodiment, the extension is substantially flat, while in another, the extension is U-shaped.

locking part 9 that is fixed to the upper end portion 3b of the
rim 3, and the locking part 10 is urged toward the upper end
portion 3b of the rim 3 by the elastic part 11 that is provided
between the bottom wall plate 9d of the locking part 9 and the
locking part 10. By the urging force the lens 2 to be inserted
to the rim 3 is certainly fixed to the rim 3. Moreover, because
the inner shape of the rim 3 is expanded by pulling out the cut
3a of the rim 3 and is shrunk via the elastic part 11 by releasing
