Filed: 1992-10-27
Abstract: Système de commande électrochirurgical (10) s'utilisant pour un trocart (11) et possédant un trocart (11) pourvu d'une cannule (12) dans laquelle est introduit un stylet (13) de façon coaxiale. Le stylet (13) est mobile par rapport à la cannule (12) le long d'un axe commun. Le trocart (11) est conçu pour s'introduire dans un sens se déplaçant généralement le long de l'axe à travers le tissu dans une opération de ponction avec son stylet (13). Une extrémité distale (15) et une extrémité proximale (16) de la cannule allongée (12) permettent à ladite extrémité distale (15) de pénétrer dans le tissu tandis que l'extrémité proximale (16) reste à l'extérieur. Une pointe (17) située à l'extrémité du stylet (13), à proximité de l'extrémité distale (15) de la cannule (12), s'étend au-delà de celle-ci, de manière à percer le tissu. Le stylet (13) est alimenté en énergie (18) depuis la pointe (17) vers son extrémité opposée (19) et se déplace réciproquement par rapport à la cannule (12), de façon que ladite pointe (17) se trouve soit en position étendue, soit en position totalement retirée à l'intérieur de la cannule (12). Un générateur électrochirurgical (20) alimente l'extrémité opposée (19) du stylet (13) en énergie et un dispositif électrochirurgical opérationnel constitue une partie de la pointe (17) et est branché sur l'alimentation en énergie (18). Un circuit d'échantillonnage (21) est branché sur le dispositif électrochirurgical opérationnel et réagit à des modifications de l'énergie traversant le dispositif d'alimentation en énergie (18) en tant que fonction de la perforation du tissu effectuée par ledit dispositif électrochirurgical. Le circuit d'échantillonnage (21) émet un signal correspondant à l'alimentation en énergie et un circuit de mesure (22) analyse ledit signal, de façon à isoler instantanément un signal spécifique indiquant une modification importante de l'énergie, quand la pointe (17) ne se trouve pas à l'intérieur du tissu. Un comparateur (23) possède une quantité d'énergie à seuil réglable

Abstract: Process for form-grinding the periphery of a spectacle lens and for scanning the three-dimensional curve and thickness of the form-ground spectacle-lens periphery by means of a computer-controlled spectacle-lens edge-grinding machine, having half-shafts retaining the spectacle lens between them, having a periphery grinding wheel machining the lens periphery, and having a sensor head which measures the spectacle lens in the vicinity of its periphery, in terms of the three-dimensional curve and the lens thickness, and is connected to a computer. In said process, the form-grinding of the spectacle-lens periphery takes place in the central region of the grinding wheel by rotating the half-shafts with the spectacle lens and changing the relative distance of the axes of the half-shafts and the grinding wheel, the rotation of the spectacle lens is stopped when a measurement point is reached, the spectacle lens is displaced, relative to the grinding wheel, axially from the central region to the two edges of the grinding wheel until the front and rear sides of the spectacle-lens periphery make contact with the sensor head, the path or the time from the central region until contact is made with the sensor head is recorded, the measured values are stored in the computer, further rotation of the half-shafts with the spectacle lens takes place, the spectacle-lens edge is form-ground until the next measurement point is reached, the rotation of the spectacle lens is stopped once again, and the measured-value recording and the periphery grinding are continued until at least one complete revolution of the half-shafts with the spectacle lens has ended. By means of this type of measured-value recording, errors in the case of very pronounced conchoidal formation of very thick lenses are avoided. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A receiver has a random counter, which outputs a timer signal to a control circuit. A zero-cross point detection circuit generates a detection signal which is input to the control circuit. When the random counter outputs a timer signal and the zero-cross detection circuit detects a zero-cross point, a muting function is activated. Simultaneously, different frequencies are scanned for broadcasts containing the same program and having higher field strengths. If on re-checking zero-cross point detection, a zero-cross point is found or a predetermined interval has expired, then the muting function is deactivated. The frequency with the greater field strength is selected.

Abstract: A beverage package and a method of forming such a package has a can (1) within a primary chamber (5) of which is located an insert (6) having a secondary chamber (10). The insert has a seating in the form of a bore (11) within which is received the lower end of a tube (15). The tube (15) is fitted to the insert whilst the latter is positioned in the can. When the can is charged with beverage such as beer (20) having gas in solution and sealed to form a headspace (21) containing gas at a pressure greater than atmospheric, beer from the chamber (20) may fill the tube (15). The secondary chamber (10) contains gas at a pressure greater than atmospheric and on opening the container the headspace (21) de- pressurises causing beverage and/or gas from the secondary chamber to be ejected through the tube (15) and such ejection causes froth to be developed in the headspace (21). The tube (15) isolates a major part of the beer in the container from having its gas liberated so that such gas can evolve gradually to provide sparkle in the beer when the latter is poured into a glass. The tube is preferably press fitted into the socket (11). In an alternative arrangement the tube may be received on a spigot extending from the insert (6). Preferably the seating (11) is co-axial with a cylindrical can (1) and the tube (15) is curved to locate its upper end adjacent to the side wall (3) of the can.
