Title: Method and device for the saving of electrical energy for the drive of an hydraulic lift
Inventor: NAGEL HEINZ-DIETER
IPC: B66B1/06
Filed: 1993-03-03
Granted: 1995-06-08
Abstract: With this method and arrangement for conserving electric power for driving a hydraulic elevator, it is possible to drive the elevator car in the ascending direction with virtually constant power output at any load. The maximum rated speed in the ascending direction is selected for a load which from experience occurs most frequently. The requisite drive variable is set in accordance with this selection. The lifting speed is correspondingly reduced in the case of higher loads and correspondingly increased in the case of smaller loads. The variable lifting speed is obtained either by an adjusting pump (8) with a variable displacement volume, controlled by a pressure regulator (14), or by a displacement pump (28) with a constant displacement volume which is driven by a frequency-controlled electric motor (31) with continuously variable adaptation of the speed of the electric motor (31) as a function of the effective load present. <IMAGE>

Granted: 1997-02-13
Abstract: A method and apparatus (3, 60, 202, 300) for measuring the dynamic, or alternating current, and static, or direct current, characteristics of a cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) from one end, the local end, by utilizing an element (1, 19, 20) possessing known non-linear electrical characteristics connected across the other end, the remote end, together with methods and apparatus (30, 111) for connecting the non-linear element (1) across the remote end of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) and disconnecting the non-linear element 11) by means of electrical voltages impressed across the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) at the local end. In the method and system of the present invention, the near end test set (3, 60, 202, 300) is electrically transposed to the far end of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) making it appear, to be at the far end during the test while, physically remaining at the near end. The non-linear element (1), in its non-linear region, when suitably excited by two or more alternating signals of different frequencies ( 4, 12, 13, 41, 42, 113, 114), produces additional frequencies which travel back from the far end to the near end of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133) and are modified by the characteristics of the cable pair (2, 10, 24, 133). By selecting specific excitation frequencies and measuring the characteristics of the additional frequencies returned (6, 22, 52, 200), the characteristics of the cable (2, 10, 24, 133) can be deduced.

Abstract: Linear ethylene interpolymer blends are disclosed. The blends are made from components having a narrow molecular weight distribution (e.g. Mw/Mn  </=  3) and a narrow composition distribution (e.g. CDBI > 50 %). The blend components in a blend can all have the same molecular weight but different comonomer contents, the same comonomer content but different molecular weights, or comonomer contents which increase with molecular weight. The blends have either Mw/Mn > 3 or CDBI < 50 %, or both, and can be multimodal with respect to either or both molecular weight and/or comonomer content. The blends are generally free of blend components having both a higher average molecular weight and a lower average comonomer content than another blend component. The blends can have improved mechanical, physical and/or chemical properties.

Title: Catheter with a vascular support
Inventor: GIANOTTI MARC
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 1993-10-11
Granted: 1994-11-10
Abstract: A catheter with a cylindrical vessel support (5) of the self-expanding type is made of a permeable network of mutually crossing, rigid threads (6) and comprises a tubular outer catheter shaft (3) which receives the tensioned vessel support (5) on its distal end, and an inner catheter (4) which is displaceable in the outer catheter (3) and exposes a passage for a guide wire (9) in its interior. On its proximal end the vessel support (5) is secured in its tensioned state such that it forms a permeable network cone (7). This catheter is to be developed further in such a way that it can be advanced under secure guidance along a guide wire, that it does not collect any vascular fluid during its advance in the vessel and that it prevents injuries to the vessel wall by the edge of the distal catheter opening. For this purpose, the invention proposes that the rigid threads (6) forming the network be joined again at their ends and anchored distally on a tip (10), so that a second network cone (11), which is arranged as a mirror image to the first cone, is formed on the distal end of the vessel support (5). The tip (10) on which the threads (6) are anchored allows the guide wire (9) to pass through in its inside and is shaped on the outside such that it seals the distal opening of the outer catheter (3) when the latter completely receives the tensioned vessel support (5). When the tip (10) seals the outer catheter (3) it extends distally in a manner such that its distal end tapers relative to the distal opening of the outer catheter (3). <IMAGE>
