Abstract: An inflatable cuff used as an artificial sphincter may be used in either of two different ways. The first embodiment involves the cuff encircling the urethra for maintaining pressure on it to occlude it except when voiding the bladder. The second embodiment involves placing a one-way valve in the urethra which is encircled by the inflatable cuff such that the cuff is only inflated when it is desired to void the bladder by opening the valve in the urethra through pressure being applied to the exterior of the valve body. In each embodiment a syringe-type pump bulb is used which is connected to a one-way valve in turn connected to a tube to the inflatable cuff. The bulb side wall has sufficient memory to cause it to return to its normal expanded condition which causes the suction of fluid from the cuff when the manually operated valve is actuated. Fluid pumped to the cuff through the valve causes a positive pressure on the cuff side of the valve blade elements and a negative pressure on the bulb side which combine to assist in maintaining the valve in a sealed closed condition.

Abstract: A circuit is provided for controlling or regulating a phase-locked loop (PLL) output during times when the PLL is unlocked. Noise or corruption on the input signal of the PLL may cause the PLL output frequency to suddenly rise to match the input signal frequency. In many instances, the noise or corruption cannot be filtered by the low pass filter within the PLL. A detection circuit is coupled to receive the input signal, and discern times in which non-filterable noise occurs. The detection circuit may include a decoder which decodes, e.g., error correction coding within the input signal data stream to indicate possible instances in which the PLL will unlock. Once the detection circuit indicates an unlock condition the clocking frequency is regulated to a lower frequency which is acceptable to a digital processor, while the unregulated PLL output clocking signal during an unlock state is not acceptable. Thus, the digital processor can maintain its operating state during times when the PLL clocking signal exceeds the processor maximum operation frequency. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A filter for removing undesired materials from a fluid, such as used cooking oil, for example, includes a filter envelope including first and second panels. The first panel has a permeability which is greater than that of the second panel. The first panel of the filter envelope may be formed from a filter pad and the second panel from a filter paper, and may enclose a metal spacer grid. When the filter is connected to a pump for drawing the oil through the filter, the flow of the oil is directed selectively through the filter pad, whereby undesired materials are removed from the oil. The filter provides for efficient flow of the oil to be filtered while removing undesired materials therefrom.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for selective photothermolysis of a target tissue within surrounding tissue. The target and the surrounding tissue are heated to a predetermined temperature of about 60° C. by a pulsed heat source such as a flash lamp which creates a temperature gradient in the air included in a cavity formed between the housing of the apparatus and the surrounding tissue. The surface temperature of the tissue is monitored by a sensor unit. When the tissue surface reaches the predetermined temperature the target tissue is heated to the point of coagulation, preferably by narrow band electromagnetic radiation. The temperature difference between the coagulating target and the surrounding tissue is sufficiently mild that heat diffusing out of the target does not damage the surrounding tissue, even in the case of a relatively large target such as varicose veins. The heating action may be terminated by automatically pumping air or another suitable coolant into the cavity when the surface of the tissue reaches a preset value or by lifting the apparatus off the tissue. The apparatus may include a programmable controller which may be programmed locally or remotely with the treatment parameters.

Abstract: A Global Positioning System (GPS) based personal athletic performance monitor for providing an athlete with real-time athletic performance feedback data such as elapsed exercise time, distance covered, average pace, elevation difference, distance to go and/or advice for reaching pre-set targets. The monitor is integrated with an AM/FM/TV personal radio, and the athletic performance feedback is provided through a set of audio headphones using an audio module. The monitor can be connected to an external personal computer via a serial or infrared port for further data storage and long term trend analysis, or to a remote computer via modem, where historical performance data is collected and logically compiled from participating athletes worldwide. Results are then transferred to an Internet web site which displays comparison data representing the relative performances of two or more athletes, provides customized individual training advice and virtual competitions, and an opportunity for advertisers to reach highly well defined potential customers. Geographically and demographically targeted advertising messages are also downloaded to the performance monitor while connected to the remote computer.
