Abstract: The invention relates to a cardiopulmonary bypass pump that can be used with medication to put the heart into asystole or near asystolic status. The patent describes equipment used in conjunction with medication to temporarily replace the function of the heart and to allow the heart to survive with minimal oxygen supply for hours or days, and for the heart to recover from ischemic or other insult or other damage without being subjected to a heavy working load. The invention provides a means to stop blood flow to the heart for a relatively long period of time, thereby allowing the performance of certain procedures that require coronary artery blockade. It also allows the heart to stop contracting, which may result in safer and easier performance of some procedures. A medication is given to the patient while the device is in use in order to stop the heart or slow the heart rate to a minimal level to decrease cardiac oxygen requirements without significant hemostasis in the pulmonary circulation.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif pour actionner la serrure d'une portière de véhicule. Ce dispositif est constitué d'une poignée à tirer (30), montée pivotante à une extrémité et dotée d'un bras à l'autre extrémité. Ce bras s'étend dans le sens du mouvement de traction de la poignée (30) et, lors de cette traction, agit sur l'élément initial (16) d'une liaison qui provoque la fermeture de la porte. L'invention vise à doter la poignée (30) de fonctions de commutation électriques pour sécuriser la serrure. A cet effet, le bras est divisé en deux sections (43, 44) à mouvement contraire, reliées par une glissière de poussée (45). Les deux sections (43, 44) sont, l'une par rapport à l'autre, commandées par un ressort (62) et maintenues dans une position de poussée maximale par des butées (38, 58) de fin de course. L'extrémité tirée (32) de la poignée (30) devient un moyen d'actionnement par pression, de par la glissière de poussée (45) commandée par ressort (62) située entre les deux sections (43, 44). Un commutateur (50) avec emplacement d'actionnement par pression (51) aménagé entre les deux sections (43, 44) du bras permet d'actionner cet emplacement par exercice d'une pression (34) et de générer la fonction souhaitée dans le véhicule.

Abstract: The first object of the present invention is to provide
a PDP with improved panel brightness which is achieved by
improving the efficiency in conversion from discharge energy
to visible rays. The second object of the present invention
is to provide a PDP with improved panel life which is achieved
by improving the protecting layer protecting the dielectrics
glass layer. To achieve the first object, the present
invention sets the amount of xenon in the discharge gas to the
range of 10% by volume to less than 100% by volume, and sets
the charging pressure for the discharge gas to the range of 500
to 760Torr which is higher than conventional charging
pressures. With such construction, the panel brightness
increases. Also, to achieve the second object, the present
invention has, on the surface of the dielectrics glass layer,
a protecting layer consisting of an alkaline earth oxide with
(100)-face or (110)-face orientation. The protecting layer,
which may be formed by using thermal Chemical Vapor Deposition
(CVD) method, plasma enhanced CVD method, or a vapor deposition
method with irradiation of ion or electron beam, will have a
high sputtering resistance and effectively protect the
dielectrics glass layer. Such a protecting layer contributes
to the improvement of the panel life.

Abstract: The excess space and weight capacity of a conventional launch vehicle for a high-energy
orbit, such as GEO (150), is used to deploy satellites to a low-energy orbit, such as LEO (110). In a preferred
embodiment, an orbit-transfer vehicle provides the navigation, propulsion, and control systems
required to transport a payload satellite from a high-energy-transfer orbit, such as GTO (120), to a
predetermined low-energy orbit. Upon entering the low-energy orbit, the payload satellite is
released from the orbit-transfer vehicle. To reduce the fuel requirements for this deployment via
the orbit-transfer vehicle, a preferred embodiment includes aerobraking (113,115,117) to bring the satellite into
a low-earth orbit. In a preferred embodiment of this method of deployment, the provider of the
orbit-transfer vehicle identifies and secures available excess capacity on launch vehicles, and
allocates the excess capacity to the satellites requiring low-earth orbit deployment, thereby
providing a deployment means that is virtually transparent to the purchaser of this deployment
service.

Abstract: The invention seeks to allow an LCD and an organic EL panel to be driven
without providing a dedicated driver for each of these two panels. A controller of a
panel driver 107 makes a determination as to the display color by which information to
be displayed is displayed, reports a driving method corresponding to this display color to
a driving method control circuit 107b, and reports a driving voltage corresponding to
this display color to a driving voltage control circuit 107c. As a result of such a
process, a driving method and a driving voltage suitable for the display color are
selected. As a result, it becomes possible for a single panel driver 107 to drive an LCD
112 and an organic EL panel 111 at the same time.

Abstract: Trolleybuses, by definition, use a pair of aerial wires and a trolley to draw
electrical power from a remote generator. The double-wired lines and the relative trolleys,
designed to contact the poles of the aerial line, present some disadvantages that up to now
have greatly limited their use and diffusion. Those drawbacks can be summarized in fixed
paths, landscape pollution, and complex handlings to recover the electrical contact
between the trolley and the line after any interruption. 
     The solutions described in this patent overcome those drawbacks. 
     To supply electrical power to a trolleybus, a peculiar trolley, with two or four traverse
elements collecting electrical power from a special aerial single line, is proposed. This
special aerial line presents the two poles of a remote generator, periodically alternated
along the single line path. 
     Moreover, the proposed solutions suggest an application that applied to a trolleybus
powered by common bifilar wire line, enhance their performances and it allows the use
of existing bifilar aerial lines, saving large amounts of money.

Abstract: A method for purifying a Redox mediator used in a chemical process of oxidation of organic compounds. The desired purification is obtained by recovering the mediator in the form of a solution and heating this solution to evaporate the volatile impurities contained in it and to oxidize the non volatile impurities into compounds which precipitate and are extracted by filtration. The purification takes place before the mediator is regenerated in the electrolysis cell. This prevents the impurities contained in the mediator solution to negatively affect the operation of this cell.
