An Independent claim is also included for a kit for the above endoprosthesis comprising several anchoring and connecting parts. Preferred Features: The anchoring part is the shaft (1) of a femur prosthesis. The protrusion is arranged on the end surface of the insertion end and the recess in the base of the receiving opening.

Abstract: The inlet (2) is provided with ribs at its outer surface and a stop (3) for defining the depth of insertion into the pipe (4). Ring-shaped projections (7, 8) above and below the ribbed section act as positioning devices and create a gap between the outer surface of the inlet (2) and the inner surface of the pipe (4) until both parts are permanently joined by press fitting. The false belief in an already performed joining process, as frequently assumed when using an inner reinforcing pipe, preventing leaking for a short time after insertion, can be avoided.

Title: Transceiver unit with carrier re-activation in case of signal to noise ratio improvement
Inventor: VAN DEN BOGAERT ETIENNE ANDRE
IPC: H04L25/03
Filed: 2003-12-03
Abstract: The present invention relates to a first transceiver unit, acting as
a receiver unit, and to a second transceiver unit, acting as a
transmitter unit. The first transceiver unit measures the signal to
noise ratio for each tone, and determines whether a tone shall be shut
off, thereby reducing interference on neighboring lines and power
consumption. If so, the first transceiver unit keeps on measuring the
noise level over that tone. If the ratio of the initially measured
signal level to the newly measured noise level exceeds a pre-determined
threshold, then the first transceiver unit requests the second
transceiver unit to re-activate that tone. A new initialization sequence
is transmitted over that tone for initializing the frequency domain
equalizer, for measuring the signal to noise ratio, and finally for
agreeing on a bit loading.
Patent EP-1366939-A1 (EP)

IPC: H01H21/22
Filed: 2003-05-22
Abstract: The device is in the form of a deck (1) for centralized control of opening and closing of the four side windows of an automobile vehicle and comprises switches for individual selection of the window to actuate. The number of switches controlling the motion of front windows is equal to two, but if a selection device is preliminary actuated, for example by pressing, in order to affect the control of the rear window during a predetermined period, at the end of that period it automatically reassigns the control to the front windows.  The selection device and at least one of the switches are actuated by the same control organ having two degrees of freedom of motion, where one is for the window selection and the other is for their actuation. The deck (1) comprises two drums (2,3) as control organs whose direction of rotation determines the opening or the closing of the windows; the drums can also be subjected to a pulsed radial displacement which determines the choice of the window to actuate. If the rotational motion is preceded by pressing in the direction of an arrow (F), the rear windows are selected for the predetermined period, which is set to about 10 s. In a variant of the device, a unique control cylinder can rotate in two directions corresponding to the opening and the windows, or at extremities for selecting the window to actuate. The selection device consists of a distinct control organ for switches whose manipulation performs latching for the assignment of the switches. The switches actuating the windows allow for slow or fast displacement of the windows. The device comprises a control organ whose actuation allows to reassign the switches to the front windows functioning; the control organ is merged with the selection device, and it is active only after the first actuation of the selection device. A method (claimed) for managing the opening and the closing of the windows of an automobile vehicle by the control deck (claimed) is implemented by an electronic existence of an action on the selection device, the assignment of switches to the rear windows, the activation of a motor corresponding to the selected window, the counting of the predetermined time without detecting the action of the switches, and the reassignment of the switches to the front windows.

Abstract: A first object is to provide a method for evaluating
large-sized inclusions in a bearing steel. The method enables
quantitative evaluation of large-sized inclusions even if the
steel has a high degree of cleanliness. Further, a second
object is to provide an appropriate bearing steel evaluated by
the method for evaluating large-sized inclusions. Further, a
third object is to provide a rolling bearing capable of
eliminating short life products and cracked products and
providing longer lifetime for entire bearings. 
     In order to achieve the first object, a round bar
formed of a bearing steel to be evaluated and an ultrasonic
probe are placed in an ultrasonic transmission medium, and the
size and number of large-sized inclusions that are present in
the flaw detection volume are measured to estimate the
existence probability of large-sized inclusions in the bearing
steel to be evaluated. The second object is achieved by
specifying large-sized inclusions that are present in the
bearing steel in accordance with the method for evaluating
large-sized inclusions. Further, to achieve the third object,
a rolling bearing is manufactured from a seamless steel tube,
as material, having a diameter of 180 mm or less and a wall
thickness of 25 mm or less, and ensured that it does not
include a defect having a length of 1 mm of more at its
material stage.

Abstract: There has been a problem of necessitating a complicated
work for establishing a connection capable of intercommunication
between a computer as server and a projector as client. 
     When a connection is established between a server 20 and
projectors 301 through 30n, a communication command is issued according
to UDP-based broadcasting to retrieve connectable projectors 301
through 303. Thereafter, the projector 301 to be connected is selected
and is assigned an IP address to establish the connection. In this
manner, a user can easily obtain a connection environment capable
of intercommunication between the server 20 and the projector 301.
A TCP/IP communication command is used to input or output image data,
ensuring reliable transmission. Since the authentication can be
providedusing a keyword projected during the connection establishment,
it is possible to prevent an unauthorized access to the projector
301 by an outsider.
