Title: Transport system
Inventor: REICHENBACH RAINER
IPC: B21D43/10
Filed: 2000-03-02
Granted: 2005-12-06
Abstract: A transport system provided in particular for large-component transfer presses is distinguished by a design with a low width and, nevertheless, permits large transport steps. By controlling two drives in the direction of rotation in relation to each other, all desired travel curves in one plane can be realized. As a result of the simple construction, a cost-effective solution is achieved for a highly dynamic transport system.

Title: Seizure warning and prediction
Inventor: IASEMIDIS LEONIDAS D
IPC: A61B5/0476
Filed: 2000-09-19
Granted: 2012-07-24
Abstract: Impending seizure warning (ISW), seizure susceptibility period detection (SSPD), hours or days before an impending seizure, and time to impending seizure prediction (TISP) are provided by measuring each of a number of signals from different locations about a patient's brain, and generating therefrom, a spatio-temporal response based on these signals. Chaoticity profiles are then generated for each spatio-temporal response. Over a period of time, a determination is made as to whether a certain level of dynamic entrainment exists between the chaoticity profiles associated with the responses from a set of critical locations. If so, a seizure warning, an indication of seizure susceptibility and a prediction of a time of occurrence of an impending seizure may be issued.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une automobile équipée d'un système de surveillance du système électrique qui aboutit à la détection des phénomènes d'arc électrique dans le système de distribution électrique de l'automobile, avec la possibilité d'avertir de tels phénomènes et de s'en protéger. Pour surveiller le système de distribution électrique de l'automobile, le système de l'invention sonde les fréquences des signaux du système grâce à un filtrage approprié. L'un des types de filtrages auxquels on peut avoir recours repose sur un circuit de détection hétérodyne capable d'un filtrage variable des fréquences de façon à filtrer un signal caractéristique du courant circulant dans l'un au moins des circuits électriques de l'automobile. La sortie de ce circuit de détection hétérodyne est configurée de façon à produire un signal en relation logarithmique avec le signal filtré. Si le signal de sortie dépasse une limite définie (caractéristique du bruit) pendant une période définie (caractéristique à la durée habituelle de l'art), le système produit un signal d'arc. Ce signal d'arc est ensuite utilisable pour mettre en oeuvre un interrupteur de circuit ou un indicateur dans un système de protection de circuit, voire les deux.
