Abstract: L'invention concerne une prothèse (43) de valve, par exemple une valve veineuse artificielle, présentant une structure (11) de support et une structure en feuille comprenant une ou plusieurs valves (78, 79). Le bord extérieur (112) de chaque valve vient en contact avec la circonférence intérieure du passage corporel le long d'une voie en serpentin comprimée contre le passage par une structure étirable, tandis que les bords intérieurs bougent en réponse au fluide afin de restreindre le débit rétrograde.

Abstract: A synthetic fibre sewing thread has a maximum tensile stretch of between 25% and 85%, and a maximum elongation elasticity of between 30% and 95%. Determination is made using a measuring force that is 70% of the absolute strength of the respective thread. Also claimed are two processes to make a commensurate sewing thread in which the thread is made either of doubled yarn or garn intermingled by air turbulence. In the manufacturing process, two or more yarn components are selected which have a maximum tensile stretch of between 25% and 85%, and a maximum elongation elasticity of between 30% and 95%. After the thread formation process, the thread is subjected to thermal and/or hydrothermal treatment process. One or both of the fibres are chemically-modified polyester fibres e.g. a multifilament poly-trimethylene-terepthalate. One yarn forms the core, while the second component is an air-formed fancy yarn.

Abstract: A bipolar electrode for use with an electrosurgical handpiece, the electrode being
configured for use in MIS and other electrosurgical procedures, primarily for endoscopic spinal
surgery. The active electrodes use the bipolar principle and are configured to provide more
controlled distribution of the electrosurgical currents to the tissue to be modulated. In one
embodiment, the bipolar electrodes are formed along a side portion of a longitudinally-extendable
tube, each connected to a terminal of the bipolar source. As a result of the bipolar
action, the electrosurgical discharge occurs primarily between the adjacent edges of the side-by-side
electrodes, which can be described as side-firing or side-emitting bipolar electrodes. A
main advantage is that it provides the surgeon with additional control over where exactly the
effects of the electrosurgical currents will be obtained. Preferably, the electrodes are mounted
on an extendable tube of memory plastic that will assume a desired curved shape when
extended to provide more freedom for location of the electrodes by the surgeon to treat tissue
during a surgical procedure.

Abstract: The image processing means rotate at least one of the existing images
(5,6,7) on the surface of the image of the support, in respect to a
first/second imaginary axis (8,9,10) and to a previous order given by
the user or the CPU, being said first/second imaginary axis independent
in respect to the second/first imaginary axis. The image (5,6,7) that
rotates on the basis of the second imaginary axis (8,9,10) stops on the
basis of an order given by the user or to an order of the CPU. It means
that when the image appears, either because it offers a prize, as for
example for an amusement machine, or because it offers a certain type of
information, for example relative to a certain place in particular the
user selects that image, and can rotate it independently of all those
images that can appear in the rest of the screen. Also it is possible
that the CPU is the one that sends the order to rotate the image. 
In addition this apparatus allows to rotate the image perpendicularly or
parallelly to the referred axis of the support, or even inclined, in
this way it is facilitated that the user has the feeling to enter by
himself in sub-screens, and his interest in the apparatus and the images
that shows stays alive.

Abstract: Circuits and related methods to detect efficiently a short-circuit condition of a pad of an IC device efficiently using a comparator and a current mirror configuration have been achieved. The IC device to be tested is free floating. The current mirror configuration comprises four branches, a biasing branch, a first comparator branch, a second comparator branch and a measurement branch. The measurement branch is connected to a pad of the IC device and a measurement current is charged on to the pad. Said measurement current is mirrored from the current of the biasing branch and the measurement current is mirrored to the second comparator branch. Furthermore the current of the biasing branch is mirrored to the first comparator branch using a scale that the current of the first comparator branch is smaller than the current of the biasing branch. In case of a short-circuit the current of the measurement branch can flow and correspondently the current of the second comparator branch is larger than the current of the first comparator branch and hence the comparator, comparing both currents, can indicate a short-circuit situation.

Abstract: A variable gain amplifier circuit is provided so that an electric current
decreases when a voltage gain is lowered and that the amplifier circuit is
substantially free of a deterioration in distortion characteristics. 
     The bases of bipolar transistors Q1, Q3 and Q5 and the bases of
bipolar transistors Q2, Q4 and Q6 are connected in common with each other,
these bipolar transistors forming a plurality of common-emitter amplifier circuits,
and switches SW2, SW1 and SW0 are connected to the respective sides of the
bipolar transistors. The emitter sides are held at a ground potential gnd by
switching the switches SW2, SW1 and SW0 so that the voltage gain is
controlled by selecting the common-emitter amplifier circuits different in voltage
gain. A collector current 10 and an emitter degeneration resistance Re
between the common-emitter amplifier circuits are so arranged as to have
different values. The ratio of the collector current 10 is set inversely
proportional to the ratio of the emitter degeneration resistance Re, whereby the
collector current 10 decreases when the voltage gain is lowered and a
deterioration in distortion characteristics is substantially obviated.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production d'oxyde d'éthylène par la réaction d'oxydation catalytique de l'éthylène avec de l'oxygène moléculaire. Ce procédé consiste à mettre en contact un flux de mélange gazeux réactif contenant de l'éthylène et de l'oxygène moléculaire en présence d'un catalyseur à base d'argent sous la forme de particules agencées en lit fixe dans des tubes à réaction combinés en un faisceau dans un réacteur tubulaire. Ledit procédé est caractérisé en ce que le flux de mélange gazeux réactif s'écoulant à travers les tubes à réaction est mis en contact avec les particules catalytiques diluées avec des particules d'un solide inerte dans une proportion augmentant dans le sens d'écoulement dudit flux. De préférence, la dilution des particules catalytiques avec celles du solide inerte est effectuée sur une fraction des particules catalytiques présente dans une zone des tubes à réaction située vers la sortie desdits tubes et, plus particulièrement, s'étendant jusqu'à la sortie desdits tubes, dans le sens d'écoulement du flux de mélange gazeux réactif. Le principal objectif de cette invention est d'améliorer la sécurité dudit procédé par rapport aux risques d'explosion, en écartant la température de réaction de la zone d'inflammabilité du flux gazeux, en particulier à la sortie des tubes à réaction.
