Patent EP-1036322-A1 (EP)
Inventor: KRUMBIEGEL PETER
IPC: G01N33/497
Filed: 1998-11-19
Abstract: The invention relates to a device which can be used in conjunction with a conventional analysis system for diagnosing the metabolic capacity of the respiratory tracts. The device enables specific quantities of suitable diagnostic agents to be added to the inspired air and after a certain time span, can be used to collect metabolites of the diagnostic agents present in the expired air and/or the diagnostic agent itself if still present. Conventional analysis systems are then used to identify the substances which have been expired and collected and determine the quantities present (e.g. using mass spectrometry, gas chromatography, GC-MS-MS, HPL-MS, isotope analysis). Conclusions can then be drawn as to the state of health of the respiratory tract organs. The invention also relates to diagnostic agents which can be used for determining the metabolic capacity of the respiratory tract epithelium, and which are used especially advantageously in conjunction with the inventive device, and to an analytical chemical method for determining the metabolic capacity of the bronchial epithelium.

Title: Bowl for containing a piece of cake
Inventor: BAUER GERHARD
IPC: B65D85/72
Filed: 1998-12-03
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of a bowl (1) with a hermetically closed lid (2), used for containing a piece of cake (3). Pegs (10) are provided underneath the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1). Said pegs (10) protrude from the bottom (1b) to such an extent that they can be easily cut-off. By cutting-off the bearing surface (12) of the pegs the interior (11) of the bowl and the exterior of the bowl (1) communicate directly, through the bottom (1b) of the bowl via the cavity (13). This means that, in the case of a piece of cake, e.g. a piece of cream cake, placed in said bowl (3), air under atmospheric pressure reaches the space between the piece of cake and the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1). This makes it easier to detach the piece of cake from the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1) and therefore, no parting agent needs to be applied between the piece of cake and the bottom (1b) of the bowl (1).

Abstract: Systems and methods for positioning and navigating
an autonomous vehicle (102,310) allow the vehicle
(102,310) to travel between locations. A first position
estimate (112) of the vehicle (102,310) is derived from
satellites (132-170,200-206) of a global positioning
system (100A) and/or a pseudolite(s) (105). The
pseudolite(s) (105) may be used exclusively when the
satellites (132-170,200-206) are not in view of the
vehicle (102,310). A second position estimate (114) is
derived from an inertial reference unit (904) and/or a
vehicle odometer (902). The first and second position
estimates are combined and filtered to derive a third
position estimate (118). Navigation of the vehicle
(102,310) is obtained using the position information
(414), obstacle detection and avoidance data (416), and
on board vehicle data (908,910).

Abstract: A transmission gear is comprised of a fitting portion
of an upper toothed wheel being fit with a fitting portion
of a lower toothed wheel so that both are axially movable.
Accordingly, even in the event that a lid plate which has a
disk introducing mechanism and a clamping chassis which has
a clamping mechanism ascend or descend, certain power can be
transmitted to a large gear (first gear) and a rotating cam
(second gear) in a sure manner. Thus, the disk introducing
mechanism and the disk discharging mechanism can both be
driven with a single simple power transmitting mechanism.
Also, the disk introducing operation and the disk
discharging operation can be performed in a parallel manner,
thereby reducing the amount of time required to exchange
disks.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système amélioré de transmission et de réception de signaux à étalement de spectre comprenant un émetteur et un récepteur, chacun étant équipé d'un canal de données et d'un canal de commande. L'émetteur utilise deux séquences de bruit pseudo-aléatoires (SBP), une dont la durée est égale à celle d'un bit de données codées ('bit SBP'), l'autre dont la durée est égale à celle d'un mot chiffré ('mot SPB'). Le canal de données est modulé par un signal de porteuse et étalé par le bit SBP. Le canal de commande est modulé par une version de phase en quadrature du signal de porteuse et étalé par le mot SBP. Le canal de commande envoie des instructions aux générateurs des SBP en vue de modifier les formes des séquences BP dans l'émetteur. Le récepteur comprend un module de recherche et d'acquisition (R & A) et de restitution de porteuse du canal de commande et un module de R & A du canal de données. Le module R & A du canal de commande utilise une version mémorisée du mot SBP, et émet en sortie un signal de synchronisation de mot, une version en phase du mot SPB, de signal de porteuse de phase en quadrature, et un signal de porteuse en phase. Le canal de commande du récepteur récupère le signaux de commande et les utilise pour modifier les formes des séquences de BP dans le récepteur. Le module R & A du canal de commande utilise une version mémorisée des bits SBP en vue de désétaler le signal reçu. Le module R & A du canal de commande produit également un signal de synchronisation de bit utilisé dans le processus décisionnel et le décodage du signal démodulé reçu.
