Title: Infrared medical thermometer.
Inventor: SUSZYNSKI EDWARD D
IPC: G01J1/02
Filed: 1990-11-30
Abstract: A self-contained handheld infrared medical thermometer having an elongated probe that is reciprocably movable between a retracted position, located fully within the thermometer housing, and an extended position, located exterior to the housing. When extended, the probe is adapted for insertion into a patient's outer ear canal to measure the patient's body temperature. When the probe is retracted within the housing, a reference plate is pivoted in front of the probe, to facilitate calibration. Advancement of the probe to its extended, operative position automatically pivots the reference plate away from the advancing probe and, in addition, automatically advances a disposable protective cover from a container for a large number of such covers into a position where it automatically stretches over the advancing probe to provide hygienic protection.

Title: Appareil d'osteosynthese a l'aide d'elements de precontrainte a guidage axial
Inventor: PROTOGIROU CONSTANTIN
IPC: A61B17/72
Filed: 1991-06-17
Abstract: Système permettant l'application d'une précontrainte axiale afin de réaliser une ostéosynthèse stable et élastique des fractures. La stabilité du système est assurée par l'action coopérative des tendons d'application de la précontrainte axiale, du dispositif de guidage médullaire, et de la fracture remise en place. On obtient une ostéosynthèse élastique et durable à l'aide d'un ancrage articulé des tendons de précontrainte. Le système comporte: a) des tendons minces de précontrainte; b) un point d'appui protecteur d'os (Fig. II 6); c) une rondelle annulaire de distribution (Fig. II 8); et d) un dispositif de guidage médullaire guidant les forces intra-osseuses et les tendons de précontrainte (Fig. I, Ia, Ib). Les tendons de précontrainte sont des fils minces ou des bandes minces en métal ou en un autre matériau. L'une des extrémités de chaque tendon forme une sphère destinée à créer un joint au niveau du point de jonction entre le tendon et le dispositif de guidage médullaire et le point d'appui protecteur. L'autre extrémité est ancrée dans la cavité conique (cône femelle) dudit point d'appui. Ledit point d'appui (Fig. II 6) met l'os à l'abri des forces de pression dues aux tendons de précontrainte. La rondelle de distribution (Fig. II 8), présente une forme concave ou convexe en fonction de la surface de l'os auquel elle est adaptée. Le dispositif de guidage médullaire (Fig. I, Ia, Ib) est constitué d'un corps cylindrique pouvant avoir plusieurs formes différentes en fonction de l'os. Il est compressible élastiquement le long de son axe transversal et résistant le long de son axe longitudinal, et forme des joints avec les extrémités sphériques des tendons de précontrainte.

Abstract: Un capteur de rotation à fibre optique comprend une bobine de fibres optiques dans laquelle se propagent dans des directions opposées des faisceaux lumineux modulés en phase avec une porteuse d'ondes carrées à la fréquence propre de la bobine. Les faisceaux se réunissent à la sortie de la bobine avec une intensité optique qui réprésente la modification de la vitesse de rotation du capteur. Le signal ainsi recombiné contient également une composante erreur due aux imperfections de la porteuse d'ondes carrées provoquant des transitoires de haute fréquence dans le signal de vitesse modulé, ce qui entraîne des erreurs de polarisation de la vitesse de rotation, que l'on réduit en démodulant le signal de vitesse modulé à l'aide d'un signal de référence de démodulateur à phase activée de manière uniforme autour de la porteuse.

Abstract: Une bobine (32) est utilisée pour émettre des impulsions d'énergie r.f. traversant un objet (44) dont on veut obtenir l'image. Les impulsions sont émises dans une pluralité de directions appartenant au même plan que l'image. Une bobine de réception (34) reçoit l'énergie r.f. émise. L'énergie reçue est transformée en valeurs correspondant à la quantité d'énergie absorbée par l'objet dans une direction particulière. En utilisant des radiofréquences dont la longueur d'onde est inférieure à la plus grande dimension de l'objet (44), on réduit au maximum les effets de réflexion, de réfraction et de diffraction. L'utilisation de bobines (32, 34) pour l'émission et la réception permet d'utiliser des dispositifs de taille raisonnable pour propager l'énergie. Etant donné que les techniques de tomographie sont utilisées pour la création d'images, une grande longueur d'onde n'a pas une grande influence sur la résolution.

Abstract: A method for filling VLSI high aspect ratio vias and lines in VLSI interconnection structures, with a low resistivity metal at temperatures below 400°C. A low melting point alloy (20) of a desired low resistivity metal is deposited into the high aspect ratio vias or lines. The alloy (20) is then purified in place by bringing the alloying element to the surface of the deposited alloy and removing the element from said surface thereby leaving the low resistivity metal in the interconnection structure. In one embodiment, the alloy is purified by using a low temperature oxidation process to allow the alloying element to diffuse to the surface of the deposited alloy where a surface oxide (28) is formed. The surface oxide is then removed by chemical etching or by chemical mechanical polishing. In a second embodiment, a continuous exposure to a plasma etching or reactive ion etching will steadily remove the alloying element from the surface of the deposited alloy. In a third embodiment, the deposited alloy is planarized and then a sink layer is deposited onto the planarized interconnection structure. The structure is annealed in order to allow the alloying element to diffuse into the sink layer. The sink layer is then removed by chemical mechanical polishing.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of making a sack or bag with a rectangular bottom in the filled condition and with a gripping part, and sacks or bags made by this method. To achieve the object of making already known methods more simple, a continuously advanced flat web has applied to it on one side, at intervals of one bag length, two strips of sealing wax parallel to each other and perpendicular to the side edges; four short strips of sealing wax are applied to the rear side at a corresponding point and two reinforcements are adhesively attached over the full surface between the strips of sealing wax. Underneath the first reinforcement, a folded slip is adhesively attached by one side-piece, while the other side-piece is folded back onto it. Underneath the second reinforcement, an area which corresponds to the side-piece is format-glued. An adhesive strip is applied to one side of the flat web. The web is brought together, forming side folds, to make a tube, in such a way that the free side-piece is arranged on the format gluing and that at the same time the two reinforcements are arranged one above the other. The strips of sealing wax are activated and fold edges are pre-scored. Finally, a gripping hole is punched in the region of the superimposed reinforcements. The still open bottom is put on in the usual way after filling of the bag.
