Title: Dispositif biodegradable
Inventor: GILCHRIST THOMAS
IPC: A61L31/14
Filed: 1996-04-01
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un dispositif (1) destiné à faciliter la cicatrisation d'éléments tissulaires coupés, tels que des nerfs, des tendons ou des muscles, dans un corps. Ce dispositif (1) qui est creux, comporte des orifices (2, 3) dans lesquels sont placées les extrémités coupées des éléments tissulaires, ensuite fixées à l'aide de colle tissulaire à base de fibrine. Entre les orifices (2, 3) se trouve une substance facilitant la cicatrisation de l'élément tissulaire, un facteur de croissance du tissu nerveux par exemple. On peut éventuellement utiliser ce dispositif en le couplant à un réservoir extérieur contenant la substance et/ou à une pompe commandée par minuterie afin d'alimenter en substance le dispositif. Ce dernier, qui est biodégradable, est composé, de préférence, de verre hydrosoluble.

Abstract: The invention concerns a thermally-protected control apparatus containing electrical components, in particular for controlling high-pressure gas-discharge lamps in motor vehicle headlights. According to the invention, electrical components which emit electrical power are accommodated in a substantially closed housing. On the basis of the control apparatus temperature detected by a temperature sensor (30), a regulating circuit (21-31) or control circuit varies the electrical power output as a function of the temperature determined such that the internal temperature of the control apparatus is stabilized. In most cases, this stabilization consists in reducing the power output in order to prevent the internal temperature of the control apparatus housing from rising above a maximum permissible temperature.

Abstract: A needle-less injector suitable for injecting fluid through a skin surface of a patient includes a housing, a driver, an intruding gas chamber activating mechanism and a trigger. The housing containing the fluid and a sealed gas storage chamber containing a gas. The driver forces the fluid out of the housing at a sufficient speed to pierce the skin surface of the patient. The intruding gas chamber activating mechanism is mounted in the housing to intrude through the sealed gas chamber to release gas seal into the housing. The trigger is operatively coupled to the intruding gas chamber activating mechanism to release the gas from the gas chamber into the housing to activate the driver to force the fluid out of the housing. The trigger is activated by moving the trigger towards and orifice in the housing and/or upon application of a predetermined amount of pressure to the trigger that is opposed by a predetermined amount of resistance from the skin surface of the patient. The predetermined amount of resistance results from the housing having contact with the skin surface of the patient, and when this predetermined amount of resistance is reached the liquid medication is forced out of the housing by the driver to pierce the skin surface of the patient. In particular variations, the intruding gas chamber activating mechanism includes a valve member that is displaced and intrudes into the sealed gas chamber to release the gas from the gas chamber.

Abstract: An articulated optical system has a pair of actuators (42, 44) each of which pivots a head mirror (34) about respective parallel axes (E1, E2) to direct the line-of-sight of an optical beam through a window (36) of a vehicle (30) to an optical sensor (38). Of the actuators, a coarse actuator (42) pivots the mirror (34) through substantially the entire desired field of regard of the optical system, and a fine actuator (44) pivots the mirror (34) for fine adjustment, e.g., less than five degrees. The coarse actuator (42) is positioned so that the axis thereof (E1) is located as close as possible to an edge of the mirror (34), so that the radial distance therebetween is small; therefore, the size of the window (36) is minimized with respect to the diameter (db) of the optical beam. The fine actuator (44) is attached to approximately the geometric center of the mirror (34), so that the mirror (34) is statically balanced about the elevation axis (E2) of the fine actuator (44); therefore, jitter and vibration are substantially eliminated.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for induction sealing of a packaging material (2) which includes a layer of aluminium foil. The apparatus includes an inductor (1) with two parallel slightly spaced apart conductors (3) which are disposed in an electrically insulated carrier portion (4). The conductors are connected to one another and to a high frequency current source by means of two transverse conductors (6, 7). 
     The transverse conductors (6, 7) are placed in the upper surface (8) of the inductor (1) and coincide with the outer defining lines (13) of the flat-laid material tube (2). Hereby, the current is led in a controlled fashion from the one conductor (3) to the other and a power output requirement is obtained for sealing the central zone of the packaging material (2) which is of the same magnitude as for the sealing of the edge zones of the packaging material (2). 
     The inductor (1) of the above-described type is particularly adapted for sealing packaging material (2) which encloses products that are viscous, for example, tomato paste or fibrous products.

Abstract: A machining vehicle (10) includes a vehicle body (11), drive
mechanism, wheels (21a-21d) rotatably supported by the vehicle body,
rotation transmission mechanism for transmitting to the wheels rotation
generated by the drive mechanism, and a permanent magnet (12) disposed
on the vehicle body. The permanent magnet (12) assumes an operation
position and a retracted position. 
     The machining vehicle further
includes a lever (14) connected to the permanent magnet (12), a
machining torch (32) attached to the vehicle body, and a handle fixed to
the vehicle body. When an operator places the machining vehicle on the
travel surface and rotates the lever (14) slightly, an attraction force
is generated between the permanent magnet (12) and the travel surface,
so that the permanent magnet swings down quickly and assumes the
operation position. While the permanent magnet (12) is in the operation
position, a sufficient frictional force can be generated between each
wheel and the travel surface. When the operator operates the lever (14)
such that the permanent magnet moves to the retracted position, the
attraction force generated between the permanent magnet (12) and the
travel surface decreases to zero.

Abstract: The frictional loads involved in a friction welding operation, for joining metal parts,
may be several tons and the mass of the welding apparatus is correspondingly large.
Thus, in addition to the energy which is converted into heat at the weld interface a
substantial amount of work has to be done simply to overcome the inertial loads of the
apparatus. An inertial load cancelling system (4) is proposed in which a double acting
gas spring arrangement (72,74) is coupled to the welding oscillator (2) output so that the work
done in overcoming the inertia of the apparatus is returned to the system when the
oscillator motion is reversed at the ends of each stroke. Thus, after the initial system
input the oscillator has only to supply work to overcome internal frictional and that
converted to frictional heat at the weld joint interface.
