Inventor: THEWES VOLKER
IPC: C09K21/12
Filed: 2001-03-16
Abstract: The invention relates to a flame-retardant coating which forms an insulating layer and is based on substances which carbonize and which form a foam layer in the event of a fire, on film-forming binders, on blowing agents and on customary auxiliaries and additives, wherein the blowing agent and foam layer forming substance present comprises melamine polyphosphate. The novel flame-retardant coating which forms an insulating layer is particularly stable under tropical conditions (at up to 100% rel. humidity, about 75° C.), i.e. it releases only an extremely small amount of NH3.

Abstract: Information described in the electric program guide of
broadcast has been diversified in the format and contents of
transmission in every broadcast media and therefore it has been
required to individually read and retrieve the electric program
guide application for reading such contents. Similarly, even
in the disc recorder and tape recorder for the video/audio
information pieces, there is a function for individual management
of index of each medium but it has been impossible to integrally
read and retrieve such indices. 
     A problem of the present invention is to integrally read,
retrieve and reproduce such video and audio information pieces
with a digital broadcast receiver. 
     In view of solving the problem explained above, the
video/audio information retrieving apparatus of the present
invention can be realized by providing a means for generating
an electric program guide information of broadcast media and
index information of storage media as the integrated index, a
mans for generating the multimedia code of the index information
and multimedia information including the processing program for
such index information, then multiplexing such information to
a digital signal and then outputting such multiplexed signal
and a means for retrieving and reproducing the video/audio
information by executing the multimedia information in the 
digital broadcast receiver for receiving such multiplexed
output.

cavity (23) extending through the electrodes and the dielectric layers and terminating
at the emitter electrode (13) is formed by a single photolithography step and an
etching process. A composite emitter (1) including a base (3) disposed on the
emitter electrode (13) and a conical tip (5) disposed on the base (3) and terminating
at a vertex V is formed in the cavity (23). The base (3) can be made from materials
including titanium, chromium, or doped silicon. The tip (5) can be made from a wide
variety of materials including a refractory metal, a metal alloy, a silicon alloy, a
carbide, a nitride, or an electroformable metal. The cavity (23) and the composite
emitter (1) are self-aligned relative to each other. The dielectric layers can be etched
back to reduce or eliminate charge accumulation on cavity-facing portions (43, 45) of
the dielectric layers. A composite layer including a dielectric and mechanical
strength enhancement layer (15a, 19a) of silicon nitride or silicon carbide and a pull-back
layer (15b, 19b) of silicon oxide on top of the etch stop layer can be used to
form the dielectric layers.

Abstract: A centered annular ring, or moat, is disposed on each of the six planar sides of a RLG block. The surface of each moat is slightly below the surrounding surface of each side of the block. Because each moat is recessed relative to the respective side surface, the moat surface is less likely to become scratched, and therefore allows for a better seal between the block and the components attached thereto.

Lorsque l'on obtient ce composé à partir d'un acide de carbone dont le pKa est inférieur à environ 10, ce composé produit un effet de relaxation vasculaire si on l'emploie à des concentrations micromolaires, et son activité est potentialisée par le glutathione à obtenir à des concentrations nanomolaires. Lorsque l'on obtient ce composé à partir d'un acide de carbone dont le pKa se situe entre environ 15 et environ 20, on obtient un effet de relaxation vasculaire à des concentrations nanomolaires, sans employer le glutathione. Dans un autre mode de réalisation, on incorpore une fraction C-nitroso dans un polymère biocompatible.

Abstract: A device is disclosed that enables a physician to remotely perform a physical examination of a patient. The device includes a hand control unit (100) that is shaped to accommodate a physician's hand, and includes a number of sensory modulation subunits (140) that can simultaneously detect applied pressure and exert pressure back to the physician. The hand control unit (100) connects through a computer (160) to a remote patient examination module (200) interfaces with a remotely located patient, preferably by wrapping around the portion of the patient's body that is to be examined. The patient examination module (200) includes a plurality of sensory modulation subunits (240) arranged in an array forming a flexible pad (202). In operation the sensory modulation subunits (240) of the patient examination module (200) receive a signal from the hand control unit (100) that indicates the location and magnitude of pressure's applied to the hand control unit (100) by the physician, and replicates that pressure in the patient through the sensory modulation subunits (240), which simultaneously detect the responsive pressures exerted by the corresponding portions of the patient's body. The magnitude and location of these responsive pressures are converted to a digital signal that is fed back to the hand control unit (100) sensory modulation subunits (140), providing the physician with a tactile response simulating direct contact with the patient.

Abstract: A transmission system allowing a response test to be
activated from cable side and easy detection of occurrence of
a failure is disclosed. In a transmission system for
transmitting data between a first communication point and a
second communication point along a link, a test manager
transmits a trigger signal to a media converter on the link,
and determines a location of a failure depending on whether a
response block of data is received from a corresponding media
converter within a predetermined time period. When a media
converter has received the trigger signal, a response packet
corresponding to the trigger signal is transmitted back to a
source that has transmitted the trigger signal. A packet buffer
is preferably provided in a media converter so that when one
link is disconnected, the other link can be used to transmit
packets, allowing a link test.

Abstract: A spring-loaded piston is produced from plastic, particularly by injection molding. The spring-loaded piston is developed in the area of a connection to a piston or piston rod such that tilting of the spring-loaded piston with respect to the piston rod is prevented and a sufficiently firm connection is ensured. In addition, the spring-loaded piston 1 may include a reinforcing insert by which clearly higher forces can be transmitted while maintaining smaller wall thicknesses than in conventional spring-loaded pistons. Also, the seat or contact surface in the spring-loaded piston is constructed for supporting the preloaded spring such that possibly occurring radial forces do not have any negative influence on the functionality of the spring-loaded piston.
