Title: Method for diagnosing psychiatric disorders
Inventor: STAMPFER HANS GEORGE
IPC: G16H20/70
Filed: 1998-04-14
Granted: 2008-11-18
Abstract: A method for diagnosing a psychiatric disorder in a subject, the method comprising the steps of: measuring the pattern of a subject's biophysical parameter and using said pattern to diagnose the psychiatric disorder. It has been found that certain clinical states are consistently associated with distincly different patterns of biophysical parameters. Normal and abnormal profiles are established, and subjects are tested by monitoring the pattern of a given parameter and comparing said pattern with reference patterns indicative of a psychiatric disorder. Heart rate is one biophysical parameter that can be readily and conveniently measured. Psychiatric disorders may be identified and diagnosed from analysis of characteristic patterns within portions of the circadian heart rate pattern. In one particular form, the heart rate pattern is measured over a period of at least approximately 90 minutes. The portion of the circadian heart rate pattern is preferably the sleep portion and in particular the sleep portion including the transition of the subject into and out of sleep. Preferably, the subject's heart rate is measured with a monitor that is unobtrusive and leaves the person freely ambulant.  Heart rate patterns may be affected by a range of factors. Some factors may produce noise that may hamper the interpretation of the heart rate pattern. Comparison of the subject's heart rate pattern with the record of the subject's activities allows for the effects of noise in the subject's heart rate pattern to be negated.

Abstract: A power system for an electric motor drive such as may be used in an electrically propelled vehicle incorporates the combination of a high power density battery and a high energy density battery to provide an optimal combination of high energy and high power, i.e., a hybrid battery system. The hybrid battery system in one form includes components which prevent electrical recharge energy from being applied to the high energy density battery while capturing regenerative energy in the high power density battery so as to increase an electric vehicle's range for a given amount of stored energy. A dynamic retarding function for absorbing electrical regenerative energy is used during significant vehicle deceleration and while holding speed on down-hill grades, to minimize mechanical brake wear and limit excessive voltage on the battery and power electronic control devices. The high energy density battery coupled in circuit with a boost converter, a high power density battery, a dynamic retarder, and an AC motor drive circuit. The hybrid battery system is controlled by a hybrid power source controller which receives signals from a vehicle system controller using current and voltage sensors to provide feedback parameters for the closed-loop hybrid battery control functions.

Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé de fabrication d'une batterie fermée et à la batterie fermée ainsi produite. Ce procédé assure une productivité optimale et permet cependant d'éviter la formation de fissures lors du soudage au moyen d'un faisceau d'énergie, tel qu'un faisceau laser, même lorsque le boîtier métallique externe et les plaques de recouvrement étanches sont fabriqués dans une matière telle qu'un alliage d'aluminium. On fabrique cette batterie fermée en formant une nervure sur une plaque de recouvrement étanche, en façonnant la bordure d'ouverture du boîtier métallique externe doté d'une faible épaisseur de paroi et en soudant la nervure à la bordure d'ouverture du boîtier métallique externe. On utilise ensuite un faisceau laser ayant une distribution d'énergie présentant une partie plate pour souder l'une à l'autre la plaque de recouvrement étanche et le boîtier métallique externe de façon à produire la batterie fermée. En outre, on soude la plaque de recouvrement étanche et le boîtier métallique externe tout en refroidissant lentement la zone en fusion.

Abstract: A protective body heat retaining pod that is carned in a folded condition within a pod containment envelope at the rear of a personal floatation device (i.e. a lifejacket) so as to be accessible to and worn over the lifejacket by both civilian and military personnel who find themselves in or about to enter a cold water environment while awaiting rescue from an emergency situation. A hood to be pulled over the head of the wearer is carried in a rolled up condition within a fold-over collar of the lifejacket. The protective pod creates a sealed chamber around the wearer within which a small volume of water is trapped and heated by the wearer's body heat to slow a drop in the wearer's body temperature to better enable him to survive his environment while awaiting rescue. A cinching cord attached to the bottom of the protective pod is pulled upwardly by the wearer, whereby the protective pod is correspondingly pulled upwardly to draw and hold the wearer's legs in a fetal position in order to reduce the size of the chamber and thereby minimize the volume of water to be trapped and heated therewithin.

Abstract: The assembly and installation of ceiling fans generally requires a great deal of dexterity, patience, balance and time, particularly if it is being performed by a single individual. The invention provides a number of improvements over existing systems which make the assembly and installation much easier and faster. These improvements include the use of captive fasteners and alignment posts, allowing the ceiling fan blade arms to be easily and safely mounted onto ceiling mounted motors. Fasteners such as Philips .TM.  head screws, regular head screws and bolts can be held captive in place on blade mounting arms with rubber grommet type washers. A number of suitable fastener variations are described. A number of alignment posts and mateable receiving holes are also described, including tapered, rounded and flat sided (such as square and hexagonal) designs. The alignment post(s) can be located on the upper surface of the mounting arms or extend downward from the rotating member of the motor. The alignment members and captive fasteners also reduce wobble effects by evenly attaching the mounting blade arms to the ceiling fan motor.

Abstract: A mouth piece for an inhaler has a mouth tube containing an atomizer path. The atomizer path has first and second channel sections. The first channel section has at least one baffle, while the second channel section has first and second channel portions located on a first lower and a second higher level, respectively. The first portion of the second channel section is located on the lower level and has an enlarged volume so as to deposit coarser particles contained in an air stream, which are ineffective for inhalation. The second portion of the second channel section is located on the higher level and is in communication with the outlet, so that only particles having a size effective for inhalation are transported by the air stream to the second, higher level and through the outlet of the mouth tube. The outlet has the shape of a horizontally arranged slit provided in the end face of the mouth tube.
