Patent EP-0421862-A1 (EP)
Inventor: PERCHERON JEAN-CLAUDE
IPC: F16G11/12
Filed: 1990-10-01
Abstract: For tensioning a cable having multiple strands (A, B, C, D, etc.) by the successive tensioning of the various strands by means of an individual jack (4), the following procedure is adopted: a first cable strand (A), hereafter called a "reference strand", is tensioned, whilst at the same time making it possible subsequently to measure the tension of the strand at any moment, a second strand (B) is then pulled until its tension is equal to that of the reference strand, measured at the same moment, and thereafter this second strand thus tensioned is anchored, a third strand (C) is then pulled until its tension is equal to that of the reference strand, measured at the corresponding moment, and thereafter this third strand thus tensioned is anchored, and so on and so forth until the last strand (D) is anchored, after which the tension then applied to the reference strand (A) is noted and, after the latter has been relieved and the measuring means released, this reference strand is anchored by applying the tension thus noted to it.

Title: Traitement de l'osteoporose au moyen de champs magnetiques non invasifs
Inventor: MCLEOD BRUCE R
IPC: A61N2/04
Filed: 1990-01-05
Abstract: Un procédé et un appareil (20, 80) permettent de prévenir et de traiter l'ostéoporose. L'appareil (20, 80) comprend un générateur (40, 42, 84) de champs magnétiques qui produit un champ magnétique oscillant directionnel réglable, parallèle à un axe prédéterminé (50) qui s'étend à travers l'os ou système squelettique visé (24, 72). Dans un mode de réalisation, un détecteur de champ (46, 74) échantillonne la densité du flux magnétique le long de l'axe prédéterminé (50) et transmet un signal à un microprocesseur (100, 248) qui détermine la valeur moyenne de la densité du flux. Le champ magnétique appliqué oscille avec une fréquence prédéterminée afin de maintenir un rapport préselectionné entre la fréquence et la densité moyenne du flux de traitement de l'ostéoporose. On maintient ce rapport en ajustant la fréquence du champ magnétique oscillant et/ou en ajustant l'intensité du champ magnétique appliqué à mesure que la densité du flux magnétique composite se modifie en réponse à des variations du champ magnétique local auquel est soumis l'os visé (24, 72).

Title: Procede permettant de changer la structure des bandes de roulement de roues d'automobile
Inventor: LIEBIG WILLI
IPC: B60C11/16
Filed: 1990-06-15
Abstract: Le nouveau procédé offre la possibilité d'adaptation de la structure des pneus aux différents états de la chaussée, en particulier pour des chaussées verglacées ou recouvertes d'eau, tout en éliminant largement les influences défavorables sur le fonctionnement produites par des tendances à l'encrassement et au givrage, avec en outre la possibilité de réduire les durées d'adaptation. Le nouveau procédé est caractérisé avant tout par la possibilité de modification, commandée par la pression du pneu, de la répartition de l'appui de la roue sur différentes parties de la bande de roulement. L'adaptation de la structure des pneus aux chaussées verglacées se fait, par exemple, selon le dessin, par l'intermédiaire de bombements (DELTAR), commandés par la pression du pneu, dans des zones de roulement spéciales (1.2) armées de spikes, à savoir par l'intermédiaire d'augmentations de la pression des pneus dans des chambres de pneu partielles (1.3). L'activation correspondante des pneus avec chambres à air peut être réalisée: (i) sur des véhicules stationnaires ou non, (ii) en peu de temps, (iii) de manière manuelle ou automatique, par exemple au moyen de palpeurs et d'une transmission sans fil des impulsions de palpeur (3) par l'intermédiaire du récepteur (4) et du guide d'impulsions (5), avec l'allumage de cartouches à gaz (8) ou par l'intermédiaire de l'alimentation en air comprimé à partir de réservoirs à air comprimé (10) internes à la roue commandée par l'intermédiaire de soupapes de commande (9) et de conduites (11). Des moyens de réglage (6) facilitent, par des diminutions correspondantes de la pression des pneus, des réadaptations aux changements de l'état de la chaussée.

Abstract: A system for imaging a biopsy needle with ultrasound is shown in which the needle tip elicits a Doppler response through controlled reciprocation of the needle tip. In a preferred embodiment the biopsy needle includes a hollow cannula (40) which carries a removable stylet. Means for reciprocating (44) the stylet is coupled to the proximal end of the stylet, and the distal tip of the stylet is reciprocated at the distal end of the cannula. This motion is detected through Doppler interrogation of the body region at which the biopsy is to be performed, and the Doppler response of the needle tip in the image of the body region allows the needle tip to be monitored as it approaches the tissue to be biopsied.

Abstract: A chemical bath (11) in which batches of integrated circuit wafers (12) or other articles are immersed in hot liquid chemical during manufacture has a processing vessel (16), an adjacent sump vessel (22) and a trough (18) which carries overflow from the processing vessel (16) to the sump vessel (22). A pump (46) continuously recirculates liquid from the sump vessel (22) to the processing vessel (16) through a filter (48). A continuous inflow of liquid is received from a liquid chemical source and an intermittent outflow occurs through an outlet (54) at an upper region of the sump vessel (22). The liquid chemical source may, for example, supply make-up fluid or be a reprocessor that repurifies the outflow from the sump vessel (22). The storage capacity of the sump vessel below the outlet (54) is greater than that needed to contain the volume of liquid that is displaced in the processing vessel (16) by the batch of wafers (12). This avoids pump starvation when liquid level is lowered in the processing vessel (16) by removal of a batch of wafers (12) and also assures that outflow matches inflow from the liquid chemical source over a period of time without requiring flow sensing devices, dynamic valving or other complications.
