Title: Collapsible cage.
IPC: A01K31/08
Filed: 1994-09-07
Abstract: In order that a buyer can assemble a dismantleable cage of the generic type in a simple manner without the aid of special tools, the (usually) four side walls (2 to 5) are connected to one another via profile rails (7 to 10). The profile rails are divided in two in the longitudinal direction and comprise an outer profile-rail part (16) and an inner profile-rail part (17). The two are held together in captive fashion via rotary parts (22).

Patent EP-0790041-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61F2/00
Filed: 1996-07-17
Abstract: A vascular or endoluminal stent adapted for deployment in a vessel or tract of
a patient to maintain an open lumen therein is formed from a metal open-ended tube which is
the single component of the stent. The tube has a multiplicity of holes cut by laser through its
wall. The through-holes are encompassed by serpentines that constitute the wall, the
serpentines extending sinusoidally each in multiple 360° wavelengths in a single turn about the
axis of the tube and juxtaposed in plural substantially identical segments disposed with
regularity along the axis. Each segment has a length equal to the distance between crests and
troughs of the sinusoid. Adjacent serpentines are joined together at crest and trough,
respectively, so that their interconnections are 180° out of phase relative to their wavelength.
The serpentines and interconnections thereof are shaped throughout for optimum uniform
expansion of the stent during deployment thereof, including a notch substantially symmetrically
located at either side of the junction of the respective crest and trough of the interconnections
between adjacent serpentines. The serpentines are substantially devoid of sharp corners and
edges, except at the notches, and each serpentine has an oval cross-section. The regularity of
the segments is interrupted at least once along the axis of the tube by serpentines oriented
differently from the others, used to maintain the tube's length substantially invariant despite
radial expansion of the stent during deployment. The serpentines are pre-stressed and annealed
before deployment of the stent to ease deployment and enhance symmetrical radial expansion.
The exterior surface of the tube is longitudinally tapered from its mid-point toward its ends, and
substantially rounded surfaces prevail throughout the tube.

Abstract: In the preferred embodiment, a Space Division
Multiple Access (SDMA) radio communication system
(100) utilises a base station (101) having a plurality of
antenna elements (103) used to transmit and receive to
multiple radio communication devices (107, 109) on a
same frequency and time channel. A different set of
beam forming weights is applied to communications for
each radio communication device (107, 109) in such a
way as to minimize the interference between the radio
communication devices signals. A set of distance metrics
is calculated utilizing the sets of weights for each pair of
radio communication units sharing a channel. When any
distant metric is less than a pre determined threshold
value, one of the radio communication devices (107, 109)
is reallocated to a new channel or a handover instruction
is performed.

Abstract: In the present invention, a line driver (10a,10b)
circuit enables multiple timing signal generators to
simultaneously deliver a timing signal (14) to a load (16).
The multiple or redundant timing signal generators each
having a line driver circuit (10a,10b), provide an
uninterrupted timing signal (14) that is independent of
failures of individual timing signal generators. The
multiple timing signal generators share the task of
providing the timing signal (14) , i.e.  power, to the load
(16). In the event of a failure of one of the timing signal
generators, the task of providing power to the load (16)
shifts to other of the multiple signal generators,
maintaining an uninterrupted timing signal (14), undisturbed
in amplitude, phase and pulse shape. The line driver
(10a,10b) of each timing signal generator has a drive
capability to exceed that required for the timing signal
(14). A voltage clamp (22) regulates the amplitude of the
timing signal (14) when the timing signal generators are
simultaneously functioning.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method capable of automatically adjusting an initial position of
the surface of a melt without an operator are provided. In a single crystal puller
using a wire as a suspender for a seed crystal for growing a single crystal of silicon
or the like according to the CZ method, a reference position of the seed crystal is

distance W-X from the reference position and then pulled upward above said
reference position to correct the wire for an extension due to the weight of a single
crystal attached thereto. Also, the wire is left above a melt for about ten minutes
to provide a constant amount of extension to the wire due to heat of the melt.
These operations are automatically performed.
