Patent EP-0844184-A1 (EP)
Inventor: PADULLES BAUTISTA MANUEL
IPC: B65B61/28
Filed: 1997-05-08
Abstract: One of the improvements of the invention lies in providing the
sacks (3), upon being sealed and released, with an inclined position,
their top end being advanced with respect to their base or bottom end,
which inclination is provided by controlling the intermittent motion of
the ejection conveyor belt (2), the foregoing in order that the inclination
of each sack (3) is sufficient in order that, upon being released from the
sealing mechanism, the sack pivots due to gravity until it leans on the
immediately preceding sack, the inclination of the sacks (3) being slow
and gradual, without their sealing weld (6) undergoing undue stresses
which might result in their being broken. Another improvement lies in
that the conveyor belt (2) is associated to a chassis (10) capable of
moving vertically along a pair of side guides (13) in order for lifting of
the chassis (10) and the conveyor belt (2) with it, to allow them to be
adjusted to different sack sizes.

Abstract: A tonometer (10), for determining intraocular pressure, has a body, which can be a transparent, substantially tubular body (12). A plunger (28) is located within the body and a coil spring (36) acts between the body and the plunger. A marker (24) member is frictionally retained within the body and is displaced relative to an external scale (20) on the body. In use, the tonometer is brought up against the eyelid (50) of a closed eye and the body displaced relative to the head of the plunger, until the pressure is sufficient to create a pressure phosphene. The device is then removed and the displacement of the marker member, indicative of the applied pressure is read. This reading corresponds to the intraocular pressure. The device may include a return member (49) for returning the marker member to a zero or rest position. <IMAGE>

Abstract: An elongated mattress core for a mattress structure includes a foam core having an upwardly-facing top surface, a bottom surface spaced apart from the top surface, and first and second elongated sides connecting the top and bottom surfaces. The foam core is formed to include a plurality of longitudinally spaced apart transverse slits extending downwardly from the top surface. Each slit terminates at a lower end spaced apart from the bottom surface by a first distance and extending transversely from a first slit end spaced apart from the first side of the foam core to a second slit end spaced apart from the second side of the foam core. Each adjacent pair of slits defines a foam column so that the foam core has a plurality of longitudinally spaced apart and transversely extending foam columns. Each foam column has a pair of generally vertical column side walls defining the slits. Each column side wall includes a shear coating having a low coefficient of friction so that each column can compress and decompress without drag forces resulting from frictional engagement with adjacent column side walls interfering with the compression and decompression.

Abstract: In a wire saw primarily intended for sawing stone with the aid of light portable equipment, a continuous, easily flexed wire loop or wire on which cutting elements are uniformly spaced includes elastomeric spacing elements between the cutting elements. With the intention of increasing the flexibility of the wire loop and its ability to endure bending as it runs around guide sprocket wheels of small diameter, the diameter of the wire or the wire loop is reduced. A narrow waist bore which centers against the wire enables the cutting elements to be threaded in a centerd way on the wire. The spacing elements are applied thinly on the wire between the cutting elements. The elastomeric material functions to resiliently center the cutting elements by being pressed against the center plane of the cutting elements from both sides into recesses provided in the end-walls of the cutting elements, theses recess being flared at a wide angle of about 90 degrees.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for enhancing transcutaneous energy transfer to provide power to a medical device that is disposed within the body of a patient. A magnetic field is created by an external transmitting coil (200), which induces an electrical current in a receiving coil (300) that has been placed under the patient's skin (100). The flux path magnetic permeability between the receiving and transmitting coils is enhanced by the implantation of particles (120) into dermis (104) within the skin at that site. The particles, which comprise soft iron or other material having a characteristic high magnetic permeability, are preferably implanted using either a hypodermic needle (150) or a medical air injection device (160). A biocompatible material such as TeflonTM is applied as a coating (123) to the particles. To implant the particles, they are preferably first suspended in a liquid, forming a mixture that is readily delivered to the desired location. The particles are dispersed in a deposit below the epidermis, so that the deposit is between pole faces of the transmitting and the receiving coils. The efficiency of transcutaneous power transfer increases because the magnetic flux density coupling the transmitting and receiving coils is improved by the particles.

Abstract: The invention relates to a composition comprising a) a styrene, alpha-methylstyrene or p-methylstyrene homo- or copolymer; b) a bromine-containing flame retardant; c) a UV absorber; d) a sterically hindered amine and e) an epoxidized fatty acid. This invention also relates to the use of the light stabilizer mixture consisting of the components c), d) and e) for light-stabilizing a styrene, alpha-methylstyrene or p-methylstyrene homo- or copolymer finished with a bromine-containing flame retardant as well as to a process for the light-stabilization thereof. Adding an epoxidized fatty acid to a UV absorber and a sterically hindered amine in styrene, alpha-methylstyrene or p-methylstyrene homo- or copolymer finished with bromine-containing flame retardants results in an unexpected synergistic effect in the light stability. In particular, it is possible to markedly reduce the discoloration of the finished polymer which takes place in the course of irradiation.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé et un appareil servant à éliminer d'une image balayée les effets dus aux défauts de surface ou de surface proche du support (14) d'enregistrement de l'image (12) en utilisant un enregistrement IR comme normalisateur. Chacun des pixels d'un canal en lumière visible de l'image balayée est divisé par le pixel correspondant du canal IR normalisateur associé, après que son gain ait été modifié pour correspondre au niveau de défectuosité du canal en lumière visible. Une modification de gain adéquate préalable à la division de l'information en pixels permet de réduire ou supprimer les déséquilibres entre les enregistrements en lumière visible et en IR qui laisseraient des reliquats après la division. Pour éliminer les reliquats défectueux, on établit un niveau d'annulation des défauts pour chacune des zones défectueuses sur la base du contenu en lumière visible et en IR de cette zone. Dans une variante, on applique, par multiplication, le gain de netteté au logarithme des enregistrements en lumière visible et en IR.

Abstract: An electrical connector housing (8) was a pair of
coplanar latch arms (116) which are connected by a U-shaped
resilient strap (118) at their rear ends. The
strap (118) has a bight (122) which is connected to the
housing (8) to provide a pivot point (P) about which the
latch arms (116) are pivotable between a normal position
and a latching position. Each latch arm (116) terminates
forwardly, in a latching head (134) which lies beneath a
side wall (132) of a hood (60) enclosing the forward end
of the housing (8). The remainder of each latch arm (116)
is substantially coplanar with the hood side wall (132)
whereby the latch arms (116) are in-line with the housing
(8). The latch arms (116) are connected to the housing by
way of the bight (122) of the strap (118). The in-line
location of the latch arms (116) avoids the tangling with
leads extending from terminals when the housing has been
loaded with terminals. Moulding of the housing is also
facilitated and the latch arms are protected against
damage when the housing (8) is being handled.
