Patent EP-0943354-A1 (EP)
Inventor: FUGOSO MAURICIO L
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 1999-03-03
Abstract: An intravascular medical catheter 10 and method of
manufacturing a medical catheter are provided herein.
The medical catheter includes a guidewire shaft 14, a
sleeve 18, and a balloon 16. The sleeve is attached to
the guidewire shaft while a distal tail 20 of the
balloon is thermally bonded to the sleeve. Because of
the sleeve, the distal tail of the balloon can be
thermally bonded even if the guidewire shaft is made of
a material which is thermally incompatible with the
balloon. Thus, for example, a medical catheter can be
made with an HDPE guidewire shaft and a balloon made of
PEBA, PET, Polyurethane, or Nylon. The resulting
medical catheter has a catheter tip which is durable,
flexible, and has a relatively low profile for good
tracking in the body vessel and good lesion crossing.

Abstract: A heat block thermocycler to perform rapid PCR in multiple small-volume samples (0.5-10
µl) employing a small, low-profile, low thermal capacity sample block the temperature of
which can be rapidly and accurately modulated by a single thermoelectric pump. An array of
spaced-apart sample wells is formed in the top surface of the block. The samples are placed
into the wells of a small, ultrathin-walled (20-50 µm) multiwell plate and located into the
sample block. The multiwell plate closely fits the array of sample wells and the top surface of
the sample block. The heated lid tightly seals the wells by pressing the sealing film to the
top surface of the multiwell plate supported by the top surface of the sample block. Air
pressure arising inside the tightly sealed wells at elevated temperatures deforms the elastic
walls of the wells of the ultrathin-walled plate and brings them into close thermal contact
with the sample block. An elastic gasket thermally isolates the sample block from the heated
lid.

Inventor: OSTERMANN RALF
IPC: H04N5/765
Filed: 1999-03-02
Abstract: A settop box can be connected to a DVD Streamer via an IEEE1394
interface which contains means to timestamp data and to strip off these
timestamps again, using them for timing regeneration. The DVD Streamer
also must re-generate the timing of data packets as it was upon
recording, when these packets are placed back. The streamer could also
use own timestamps and strip them off again when replaying. So, in
total, there is an in-series connection between two time stamping and
time regeneration mechanisms which introduces jitter accumulation. 
     The settop box itself adds time stamps to the data packets before
sending them through the IEEE1394 interface. These timestamps pass the
IEEE1394 interface unnoticed, i.e. as part of the payload. These
timestamps are used when the DVD Streamer plays back a stream. The
advantage is that there is only one timing/regeneration process involved
and that no jitter is accumulated. 
     As an alternative, the stream recorder uses the IEEE1394 timestamps
and evaluates them when replaying in order to assign to the data packets
the correct temporal position.

Abstract: An apparatus and process for hiding the secondary image within the primary image and generating a high quality hard copy of the unified elemental image of a variety of media. The process comprises the steps of rasterizing the first image into a first elemental image and rasterizing the second image, compensated with its own inverse, into a second elemental image. The first elemental image and the second elemental image are merged into a unified elemental image based on a predetermined decoding and compensating principle, resulting in the second elemental image being hidden within the first elemental image. An output image is created based on the unified elemental image where the primary image is visible to an un-aided eye while the secondary image is hidden from the un-aided eye.

Abstract: In a method for generating electrical conducting or semiconducting structures in three dimensions in a matrix which comprises two or more materials in spatially separated material structures, an electric field is applied to the separate material structure or the field-modulated spatially according to a protocol which represents a predetermined pattern of electrical conducting or semiconducting structures which are generated in the material structure in response to the field. The matrix composed by the material structures will hence comprise structures of this kind in three dimensions. In a method for global erasing an electric field is applied to the matrix until the materials in the matrix in response to the field in their entirety arrive in a non-conducting state. In an electric field generator/modulator (EFGM) which can be used for patterning and generating electrical conducting or semiconducting structures, two electrode means (E1;E2) comprise parallel strip electrodes (21;22) provided mutually spaced apart in parallel planes such that the electrodes (21, 22) form a matrix-like arrangement. The electrode means (E1;E2) are over cross-connection devices (24, 25) connected with a power supply (23). EFGM (20) is adapted for receiving a thin-film material between the electrode devices (E1, E2) in order to generate said structures.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for supporting connections on multipoint-to-point topologies is disclosed. A cell scheduler schedules packets from incoming VCCs for transmission on the order that a complete frame is available. Cells are received from a plurality of virtual channel connections. The cells for each of the virtual channel connections are stored in a buffer until a complete packet has been received. When a buffer accumulates a complete packet of cells for one of the virtual channel connections, the cells are scheduled for transmission. A complete packet is determined by looking at a packet type identification field. Cells forming a first packet for a first virtual channel connection are transmitted continuously until all the cells have been transmitted. A next available complete packet of cells is transmitted after the first packet of cells has been transmitted. A determination is made whether a cell is a data cell, an OAM cell, a Resource Management cell or a reserved cell. When a cell is determined to be an OAM cell, a Resource Management cell or a reserved cell, the buffered cells are dropped, moved to a bypass queue or handled as other cells.
