IPC: A61M5/24
Filed: 1992-04-07
Abstract: PCT No. PCT/EP92/00777 Sec. 371 Date Jan. 13, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Jan. 13, 1994 PCT Filed Apr. 6, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO92/18177 PCT Pub. Date Oct. 29, 1992.The device comprises a tubular housing with two jackets and a container filled with the liquid component of a drug. Within the inner jacket of the housing, close to the closed end thereof, is a chamber containing the powdered components of a drug. A needle for piercing the stopper which closes the container enables the interior of the container to be put in communication with the chamber so as to allow the liquid component to flow out and consequently mix with the powdered component. The subsequent advance of the container into the housing, with the consequent penetration of the piston into the container, causes the further flow of the liquid component into the chamber carrying the drug solution to the exterior of the device generally like a syringe. Its use as a supplier of infusions is also foreseen.

Title: A hydraulic valve
Inventor: PIERI TIMOTHY DE
IPC: F16K31/26
Filed: 1994-09-19
Abstract: The present invention discloses a valve which utilises an imbalance of flow induced pressure forces to keep the valve open or closed. The valve has an interior cavity (15) into which an opposite and aligned inlet (12) and outlet (13) open. A bulbous body (16) is located within the cavity and is reciprocally mounted on a spindle (17) which passes through the outlet. Movement of the body increases the flow area at one end of the body and decreases the flow area at the other end of the body. In accordance with Bernoulli's theory this changes the pressures acting on the body (16) giving rise to a net force on the body. A cistern inlet valve (111, 211) and cistern (19) are also disclosed. <IMAGE>

Title: Improvements in or relating to electronic timepieces
Inventor: YABE HIROSHI
IPC: G04F5/06
Filed: 1985-06-28
Granted: 1987-09-09
Abstract: Rate change in a quartz crystal timepiece due, for example, to aging of a capacitance used for correcting the frequency-temperature characteristic of the crystal oscillator of the timepiece, is corrected by dividing the oscillator output signal to provide a minimum rate adjustment unit signal and a rate adjustment timing signal. A rate adjustment step width signal consisting of a number of minumum rate adjustment unit signals is predetermined for all of the timepieces in a production run. The number controls the repeated counting of unit signals to produce a series of step width signals. The rate adjustment required for correct timekeeping is determined as an integral number of step width signals. The latter number is set into a second counter in the timepiece to generate a rate adjustment signal. The rate adjustment signal controls the duty cycle of a switch which adds reactance to the crystal oscillator circuit to effect the rate change.
