Title: Echogenic devices
IPC: A01K85/00
Filed: 1990-02-15
Granted: 1993-03-25
Abstract: An echogenic medical devices adapted to be inserted into a patient, comprises an elongated member (123, 901, 1003) including a material (127, 1002) having an acoustic impedance different from that of the surrounding medium. For enhancing an image produced in response to a sonic beam produced from imaging equipment, the medium includes biological tissue or fluids surrounding the member when inserted into a passageway of the patient. The elongated member (901) also provides an interface (903) including the outside surface of the member and a plurality of partially spherical indentations (905). Alternatively, generally spherical particles (1002) are attached to the surface of the member (1003) for producing the image in response to the sonic beam. Materials such as stainless steel, plastic, and glass are utilized in the manufacture of the medical device. The device may also include an echogenic body member including a composite material echogenically imageable in the patient. The composite material includes a matrix material with discrete sound reflective particles made from a material different from the matrix material and embedded therein. Several sound reflective particles are disclosed, one type of particle being a glass microsphere about 5 microns in diameter. The matrix material (125) may be a plastic, and may be formed or extruded into devices such as catheters or other medical devices. The composite material may include different quantities of sound reflective particles by percent volume. Furthermore, a radiopaque material may be included in the composite material so the medical device is both ultrasonically imageable and radiographically imageable.

Title: Device for the implantation of self-expanding endoprostheses
Inventor: BRAUNSCHWEILER RETO
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 1993-10-27
Granted: 1996-05-23
Abstract: A device for implanting endoprostheses (1) essentially comprises an external tubular body (2) and an elongate core element (3) located therein. For actuation of the device the core element (3) and the tubular body (2) each have handles (5, 6) on their proximal ends. In order to to produce a positive connection between the endoprosthesis (1) and the core element (3), the core element (3) has a region (10) which is provided with a relief corresponding to the inner shape of the endoprosthesis (3). As a result, a multiplicity of positive engagement points are formed between the endoprosthesis (1), which is enclosed in the folded state, and the core element (3). Such a design of the device permits partially released endoprostheses (1) to be folded again by advancing the tubular body (2) for repositioning of the endoprosthesis (1). Moreover, such an embossing of the core element (3) achieves a safe and reliable mode of operation. <IMAGE>

Title: Synchronization and equalization in a tdma cellular system
IPC: H04L7/00
Filed: 1990-06-22
Granted: 1992-12-24
Abstract: In a Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA) cellular system, there is provided a mechanism for synchronization and equalization comprising: providing synchronization information (S/S) sufficiently removed from the start of a TDM slot so as to maintain the integrity of that synchronization information (S/S) at adjacent cells and providing that synchronization information (S/S) not so far removed from the start of the slot as to necessitate adaptive equalization of information preceding the synchronization information (S/S) for sufficiently reliable recovery. The equalization is further enhanced by providing, roughly midway between the synchronization information (S/S) and the end of the slot, additional information (CC) upon which equalization may retrain. Accordingly, equalizers perform retrospective, non-adaptive equalization of information preceding the synchronization information (S/S), perform adaptive equalization of information following that synchronization information (S/S), and retrain utilizing known bit-sequences elsewhere within the TDM slot; the additional information (CC) comprises known bit-sequences identifying cells.

Title: Sputtering apparatus and sputtering processing system using the same
IPC: C23C14/34
Filed: 1990-09-12
Granted: 1993-07-01
Abstract: An appts. used for mfg. optical disks, for example. A vacuum chamber for sputtering process has an opening and a sputtering section. An object, such as a oisk substrate, is loaded through the opening and placed in the sputtering process section. A rotatable arm is disposed in the vacuum chamber so as to transfer the object from the opening to the sputtering section. By this construction, the structure of the chamber is simple, the size is small, and the number of objects processed per unit time is increased. At least two apparatuses may be installed so that during the time after the end of one sputtering process till the start of the next process in one apparatus, a sputtering process can be performed in another appts. Instead of provision of devices such as power supplies in each appts. only one set of devices can be commonly provided for all the apparatuses. Thus, the configuration and productivity are further improved. @(50pp Dwg.No.0/28).

Title: Casein derivatives
Inventor: BRULE GERARD
IPC: A23C9/142
Filed: 1981-01-30
Granted: 1986-01-02
Abstract: Non-phosphorylated peptides and phosphopeptides useful as alimentary products or medicaments are produced by proteolytic enzyme hydrolysis of a casein-based material. Membrane ultrafiltration is used to separate phosphopeptides which are retained by the membrane in a retentate from the non-phosphorylated peptides which pass through the membrane in an ultrafiltrate. The phosphopeptides in the retentate are disaggregated and are subjected to further membrane ultrafiltration where the phosphopeptides pass through the membrane and are separated from the enzyme. The non-phosphorylated peptides have nutritive value and can be used to form compositions for providing nutrition. The phosphopeptides form salts, which have dietetic uses, with macroelements such as calcium and/or magnesium and/or oligoelements such as iron and zinc.

Title: Method for resolving conflicts among entities in a distributed system
Inventor: GRIFFETH NANCY DAVIS
IPC: H04Q3/545
Filed: 1994-05-09
Granted: 1997-08-21
Abstract: Communication among entities such as customer premises equipment (20, 22, 28) in a telecommunications network (10) is set up through the use of agents representing each entity (20, 22, 28). Agents representing corresponding entities in the telecommunications network (10) negotiate over the type of communication sessions in which the corresponding entities want to be involved. The negotiation process involves the exchange of proposals by agents. A proposal comprises one or more planned actions which can be taken in the network (10). One agent generates a proposal acceptable to it and transmits the proposal to another agent. The receiving agent determines if the received proposal is acceptable to it and if not generates a counterproposal. The process continues until a proposal acceptable to both agents is found or it is determined that there is no proposal for realizing the particular type of communication session which is acceptable to both agents. An agent determines whether a proposal is acceptable to it through use of a goal hierarchy. The goal hierarchy indicates whether or not specific actions for accomplishing a goal are acceptable. The use of the goal hierarchy permits an agent to infer another agent's goals, and to find alternate actions that achieve this goal. The negotiation process enables agents to reach agreement without modification of their goals and without requiring the disclosure of restricted information to other agents. The inventive negotiation method is also applicable to other distributed systems.

Title: Ultraviolet absorbing green tinted glass
Inventor: GULOTTA JOSEPH ANTHONY
IPC: C03C4/08
Filed: 1991-07-29
Granted: 1992-05-07
Abstract: A green tinted, ultraviolet absorbing glass is obtained by the addition of colorant to a standard soda-lime-silica base glass composition and a colorant includes less than 0.5 weight percent of cerium oxide (CeO2), greater than 0.85 weight percent of total iron expressed as Fe2O3 and a ratio of ferric iron expressed as FeO to total iron of less than 0.275. The glass has a low ultraviolet transmittance, viz., no greater than 31 percent over the wavelength range of 300 to 390 nanometers at a reference glass thickness of 3.9 millimeters. An advantage of the glass of this invention over competing ultraviolet absorbing glass is the use of larger amounts of total iron and smaller proportions of iron in the ferrous state to obtain the low ultraviolet transmittance. In this manner, the amounts of cerium oxide which is expensive is reduced.
