Abstract: A small photodetector type microphone (10) exhibiting
excellent directivity without requiring any mirror
surface. A diaphragm (27) vibrates in response to a
sound pressure. An optical waveguide (28) is formed
along the diameter of the diaphragm (27) and integral
vibration of the optical waveguide (28) and the
diaphragm (27) causes a variation in the quantity of
light leaking from the optical waveguide (28) to the
outside thus causing a variation in the quantity of
light being transmitted across the optical waveguide
(28). The optical waveguide (28) has one end side for
introducing light into a light emitting elements (20)
and the other end side for delivering light to a light
receiving element (24). The light receiving element

Abstract: A fuel injection control apparatus has a rail pressure sensor (43) and an electronic control unit (ECU) (52). The ECU (52) converts the common rail pressure (analog signal) detected by the rail pressure sensor (43) into a digital signal by an A/D converter (53, 55), and controls the injection amount and the injection pressure based on the converted rail pressure. During the injection amount control, the ECU (52) determines an injection period based on an injection amount instruction value and the rail pressure, and causes an injector (23) to inject fuel over the injection period. During the injection pressure control, the ECU (52) controls a supply pump (27) so that the rail pressure converges to a target pressure. Furthermore, the ECU (52) performs the sampling for computing a rail pressure for the injection amount control and the sampling for computing a rail pressure for the injection pressure control at different timings.

Abstract: Embodiments are described for engaging a pumping cartridge with a pump drive. In certain embodiments, the cartridge, including a cylinder and a movable piston assembly, is initially assembled or subsequently positioned so that the distance between the attachment point on the piston assembly for coupling to a drive assembly, and a reference point on the cylinder, is greater than the maximal distance that will be encountered during normal oscillation of the piston during use. The cartridge, in certain embodiments, may be pressed into a drive assembly that immobilizes the cartridge and couples the piston assembly to the driveshaft. In certain embodiments, when the cartridge is fully inserted into the drive assembly, the piston is pressed into the cylinder sufficiently to establish a selected distance so that the piston shaft is in the proper position to engage with a coupling mechanism carried on the driveshaft.

Title: Hyperbranched amylopectin for use in methods for surgical or therapeutic treatment of mammals or in diagnostic methods, especially for use as a plasma volume expander
Inventor: SOMMERMEYER KLAUS
IPC: A61K47/36
Filed: 2002-08-06
Abstract: The invention relates to the use of hyperbranched amylopectin which has an average branch degree of between >10 and 25 mol % and a molecular weight (Mw) ranging from 40.000-800.000 Dalton and the derivatives thereof in methods for surgical or therapeutic treatment of human or animal bodies or in a diagnostic method, preferably as a plasma volume expander. Plasma volume expanders based on hydroxy-ethylated amylopectin have, as a result of hydroxy ethylation, hitherto exhibited the disadvantage of incomplete metabolism and thus temporary tissue storage which is linked to side-effects. According to the invention, novel plasma expanders based on polysaccharides which do not exhibit the same disadvantages as the former are provided. Improved, completely metabolised plasma expanders based on hyperbranched amylopectin which can be obtained therefrom so that native plant-amylopectins are altered-by transglycosylation in such a way the adjustable, high degree of branching enables control of the serum-alpha-amylase decomposition so that no or only a very insignificant degree of hydroxy ethylation is necessary.
