Patent EP-0704226-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ISHIHARA KAZUHITO
IPC: A61M29/02
Filed: 1995-09-29
Abstract: A guiding catheter for angioplasty or angiography is provided. The guiding catheter has a main lumen near its distal end, and an subsidiary lumen for inflating/deflating the balloon. When the balloon is inflated by introducing a fluid into the subsidiary lumen, the balloon is unfolded to obstruct the main lumen. When therapeutic balloon catheter that has been inserted through the guiding catheter over the guidewire is replaced with a new catheter having a balloon of larger diameter, guidewire may be secured in place by the inflated balloon of the guiding catheter that presses the guidewire against the main lumen wall. Therefore, use of a replacement wire or an extension wire that had been necessary in conventional guiding catheter can be omitted to enable simple and reliable manipulation to relieve the burden of the patient.

Abstract: A shelf assembly (10) for a refrigerator compartment such as a refrigerator for food products includes a shelf member (11) slidably supported for extension and retraction on a shelf support (16). The shelf member (11) includes side members which are preferably molded as a rim (14) on an article support surface from an ethylene-polypropylene copolymer and include slide surfaces engaging spaced, generally horizontal and parallel shelf support surfaces preferably formed by L-shaped brackets (20a,20b) on the shelf support (16). A guide member depends from at least one, and preferably both, of the side members (44,46) to guide the sliding movement. A stop on the guide member limits travel by engaging a limit surface on the shelf support (16). The guide member and stop may be molded integrally with the side members to define a molded slide channel or formed by a rigid insert embedded in the rim during molding. The method includes injecting the moldable around a rigid core (250) positioned in a mold cavity and withdrawing the core (250) after removing the molded rim to leave a slide channel in the rim.

Abstract: In a fugitive color fire retardant composition, the colorant initially colors the composition to a hue which contrasts with the hue of ground vegetation. A non-fugitive component is included in the colorant, in an amount sufficient to provide improved aerial visibility when the composition is first aerially applied to the vegetation. However, the amount of non-fugitive pigment is less than an amount which would prevent the composition from fading after application to an acceptable hue.

Abstract: An apparatus and a control method for adapting moving bodies to high-speed operation of a pattern making device for a warp knitting machine which is adapted to carry out a patterning operation by providing an arbitrary number of moving bodies, at least some of which constitute guide points, in a guide path so that the moving bodies can be moved on the basis of the driving means, and displacing each guide point on an arbitrary direction by a desired amount on the basis of a signal from an electronic controller to each moving body and thereby positioning the same, characterized in that an auxiliary driving means for supplementing the driving force from the driving means when the pattern device is started and operated in accordance with the lapping of the moving bodies is additionally provided. For example, the supplementing of the driving force is done by utilizing a force of the pressure air blown out and diffused from nozzles provided on some of the moving bodies, or blowing air from a nozzle directed to the moving bodies. A signal sent to the moving bodies, for example, a pulse signal is set to one pulse per gauge pitch, whereby a position in which the moving bodies are to be stopped is reliably set between knitting needles.

Abstract: A process is disclosed for improving the design load behaviour of an internal combustion engine operating in a substantially stationary mode and supercharged by an exhaust gas turbocharger. By temporarily regulating the starting point of engine feeding in a dynamic variable manner, adapted to the load and mode of operation of the engine, the whole potential of the engine may be used during system-inherent downfalls of the speed of rotation caused when the load is increased. The disclosed regulation of the starting point of engine feeding increases the indexed mean pressure and allows to reach all given mechanical load limits. It acts upon the combustion process and increases power output of diesel engines supercharged by exhaust gas turbocharger whose boost pressure build-up is otherwise limited and unfavourably delayed by the turbocharger limited capacity of acceleration.
