Patent EP-0981412-A1 (EP)
Inventor: GEISSLER NORBERT
IPC: B21D31/04
Filed: 1998-05-12
Abstract: A device for continuous production of foil expanded metal comprising a cutting unit for continuous production of parallel, staggered longitudinal cuts in the foil, and an expansion unit for expanding the foil with the cuts perpendicularly to the longitudinal direction of the foil, the expansion unit provided with toothed belts which grasp both edges of the foil, in addition to a running body which is arranged therebetween to expand the foil running thereon. The configuration of the device is such that a toothed belt and a toothed wheel interacting therewith at a given angle are assigned to each foil edge, the edge of the foil is grasped between the toothed belt and the toothed wheel within an input and an output point. The toothed wheels are inclined in relation to each other so that their distance perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the foil increases at the contact angle in the longitudinal direction of the foil.

Title: Process and device for coding a time-discrete stereo signal
Inventor: GRILL BERNHARD
IPC: H04S1/00
Filed: 1998-06-15
Abstract: A method of coding a time-discrete stereo signal, the stereo signal having a first and a second channel, permits scalable stereo coding. At first, a mono signal is formed from the stereo signal, which is then coded, whereupon the coded mono signal is transmitted to a bit stream. Thereafter, the coded mono singal is decoded again, whereupon stereo information is formed on the basis of the coded/decoded mono signal and the first and second channels, with such stereo information being coded and being also written into the bit stream in order to obtain a bit stream comprising a complete coded monolayer as well as a layer with coded stereo information.

Title: Systeme de commande d'exposition de plan focal pour capteurs d'images a zones a mos complementaire
Inventor: CLARK VINCENT S
IPC: H04N5/353
Filed: 1998-07-24
Abstract: Un système de commande d'exposition électronique destiné à un capteur d'image à MOS complémentaire à pixels actifs comprend un décodeur de rangées ainsi qu'un décodeur de colonnes pour l'adressage respectivement des rangées et des colonnes du signal d'images générant des pixels. Les décodeurs reçoivent les adresses des rangées et des colonnes ainsi que des signaux de commande provenant d'un contrôleur. Les adresses des rangées reçues par le décodeur de rangées sont commutées de manière alternée entre une adresse de rangée prédéterminée destinée à remettre à l'état initial les signaux d'images de pixels dans ladite rangée ainsi qu'une autre adresse de rangée prédéterminée espacée destinée à permettre au décodeur de colonnes d'afficher les signaux de pixels se trouvant dans ladite rangée sélectionnée. En produisant une séquence prédéterminée d'adresses de rangées on peut créer un 'obturateur à défilement' et/ou on peut sélectionner le temps d'exposition des pixels pour qu'ils soient différents du temps d'exposition de la totalité d'une trame. Le capteur d'images peut également fonctionner en mode entrelacé et/ou il est possible de sélectionner des zones spécifiques sur le capteur d'images pour les remettre à l'état initial et les afficher.

Title: Systeme d'electrodes d'ablation en groupe
Inventor: COSMAN ERIC RICHARD
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 1998-07-24
Abstract: L'invention a pour objet des électrodes multiples haute fréquence, réunies en un groupe que l'on peut insérer dans un tissu corporel d'un patient pour réaliser l'ablation thermique d'un tissu anormal tel qu'une tumeur. Les électrodes sont connectées de manière cohérente à une tension de sortie d'un générateur haute fréquence. La disposition des électrodes en groupe permet d'atteindre un volume d'ablation plus important; les risques d'hémorragie diminuent grâce à un diamètre plus petit des électrodes individuelles faisant partie du groupe. Les électrodes se terminent par des pointes conductrices refroidies avec un fluide de refroidissement, ce qui facilite davantage la création de volumes d'ablation importants. L'appareil et le procédé faisant l'objet de cette invention permettent de créer des volumes d'ablation très importants. On a prévu de différentes configurations de groupes d'électrodes pour répondre à des exigences cliniques spécifiques.
Patent EP-1013136-A1 (EP)
Title: Sub-rate switching telecommunications switch
Inventor: ALLEN JAMES F
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1998-09-09
Abstract: A telecommunications switch includes a plurality of digital signal processing modules resident on a communications services card, wherein each module includes its own time slot interchange (TSI). Significantly, this allows each digital signal processing module to simultaneously receive all information transmitted from the line cards. In addition, since each digital signal processing module includes its own dedicated TSI and each of these TSIs is connected in parallel to the same TDM bus, one or more TSIs may simultaneously output data onto the TDM bus during a time slot. Advantageously, this allows multiple TSIs to be assigned to the same transmit time slot and mux transmit time slots at the bit level. For example, if a first TSI on the digital signal processing module needs only three bits of an eight bit time slot, and a second TSI needs five or less bits, then both TSIs can be assigned to transmit during the same time slot. The first TSI would output data on, for example, the three least significant bits, while the second TSI would output its data onto the remaining bits of the time slot.
