Patent EP-1408857-A1 (EP)
Inventor: LIEBRECHT FELIX
IPC: A61B17/86
Filed: 2000-06-21
Abstract: Bone screw (10a) having a hollow, tubular shaft (12a) consisting of metal, such as titanium, the shaft having a head (14a) at one end and a self-tapping external thread (18a) at the other end. The head (14a) has a hexagonal recess (16a) for inserting a turning tool. An electrically insulated metallic end-piece (20a) which tapers in the direction of the end in the form of a cone or pointed arch, is inserted the other end of the shaft (12a). A receiving coil (30a) is located in the hollow shaft (12a), the terminals (36a, 38a) of the coil being electrically coupled to the shaft (12a) and to the end-piece (20a). The space between the end-piece (20a) and the end of the shaft (12a) as well as the interior of the shaft (12a) are filled with a biocompatible insulating compound (26a), such as an epoxy resin. A low-frequency electric voltage can be induced in the receiving coil by an external primary coil which is coupled to an oscillation generator. The electric voltage generates a growth-promoting current in the surrounding tissue, the shaft and the end-piece acting as tissue electrodes (stimulation method according to Kraus and Lechner).

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un guide d'ondes optique (1) doté d'une structure de réseau (2) dans laquelle des réseaux d'ordres différents sont superposés. Lorsqu'un réseau de premier ordre et un réseau de deuxième ordre sont superposés, la lumière incidente est partiellement réfléchie par le composant de premier ordre et partiellement couplée hors du guide d'ondes par le composant de deuxième ordre. On peut également utiliser le composant de deuxième ordre pour coupler la lumière extérieure jusque dans le guide d'ondes (1). La structure de réseau (2) possède des applications dans les coupleurs en espace libre, les capteurs optiques, et la suppression des ondulations dans les dispositifs de compensation de dispersion.

Title: Procede de production d'un ressort a torsion
Inventor: WIEMER MAIK
IPC: G01P15/08
Filed: 2000-07-20
Abstract: L'invention concerne un ressort à torsion en silicium qui permette, par exemple, de sélectionner la vitesse de rotation d'un système ressort à torsion/masse microstructuré. L'invention vise à produire un tel ressort à torsion ayant une faible rigidité à la torsion pour une raideur transversale relativement élevée dans le sens latéral et le sens vertical. Pour ce faire, on utilise une plaquette ou un ensemble de plaquettes que l'on recouvre d'un masque par gravure chimique humide anisotrope pour obtenir un ressort de section transversale en V qui s'étend, de préférence, sur toute l'épaisseur de la plaquette et qui n'est délimité latéralement que par des faces [111]. Deux des plaquettes ou ensembles de plaquettes ainsi préstructurés sont tournés de 180 DEG  et assemblés par symétrie spéculaire afin d'obtenir globalement la section transversale en X souhaitée. On obtient ainsi une technologique de production comparativement simple pour produire un ressort de torsion à raideur latérale et verticale.

Abstract: The invention relates to a solid-state imaging device (1) which is encapsulated in a ceramic package covered by a transparent window (6) comprising a phosphorus-containing glass. The window is provided with a coating (8), for example of chromium, at the circumference of the window to counteract degradation of the joint between the window and the ceramic package, which degradation results from the sensitivity of phosphorus glass to moisture. The use of phosphorus glass has the advantage that it is opaque to infrared radiation, so that the application of a separate coating serving as an IR filter is avoided and hence the dependence of the sensitivity of the imaging device on the angle of incidence of the radiation to be detected.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for efficient data transmission in a wireless voice-over-data communication system. In a transmitter, data segments are transmitted in accordance with a predefined data protocol. The predefined data protocol is modified to define a first segment size and a second segment size. The first segment size represents a minimum segment size that can be transmitted. The second segment size represents a maximum segment size that can be transmitted. A segment is created and transmitted whenever a quantity of time-sensitive information available for transmission allows a segment to be constructed having a segment size between the minimum segment size and the maximum segment size. A segment of any size up to the maximum segment size is also created and transmitted whenever any time-sensitive information is available for transmission and an acknowledgement message is received by the transmitter.

Inventor: METHLEY IAN
IPC: F01L1/356
Filed: 2001-08-02
Abstract: A mechanism is disclosed for enabling the duration of a
valve event in an internal combustion engine to be varied.
The mechanism comprises a drive shaft 10 rotatable in
synchronism with the engine crankshaft, a cam sleeve 12
rotatably mounted on the drive shaft 10 for opening and
closing an engine valve and a drive member 14 coupled to the
drive shaft 10 and the cam sleeve 12. The drive member 14 is
mounted for rotation about an axis parallel to that of the
drive shaft 10 and the axis of the drive member is variably
offset from the drive shaft axis. The extent of the offset
serves to vary the phase of the cam sleeve relative to the
drive shaft cyclically, thereby superimposing a variable
amplitude oscillation on the steady rotation of the cam
sleeve by the drive shaft to vary the valve event duration. 
     In the invention, the means for coupling the drive
member 14 for rotation with the drive shaft 10 includes a
pin 22 slidably received in a radial bore 20 in the drive
shaft 10 and the end of the pin 20 projecting from the drive
shaft 10 is pivotably mounted directly on the drive member
14. 
     As an alternative to the provision of an intermediate
drive member that can be moved to an eccentric position, the
drive shaft may itself be moved to an eccentric position in
relation to the axis of rotation of the cams.
