Title: Temperature sensing method using a negative temperature coefficient sensor and device therefore
Inventor: TORNARE JEAN MARC
IPC: G01K7/25
Filed: 1995-12-06
Abstract: Temperature sensing method using a negative temperature coefficient sensor (10). The sensor has a signal processing stage (11) associated therewith, which stage includes one or more transistors (T) arranged in parallel with one or more so-called pull up resistors (R1, R1A...R1N). An analog-digital converter (13) receives a voltage (VB0, VB1) from an intermediate point between the sensor (10) and pull-up resistors. The method is characterised in that: the transistor (T) is controlled on the basis of a so-called square voltage, so that it switches alternately and regularly between an on state and an off state; the value of voltage (VRT) is measured at an analog input (12) of converter (13) when said transistor (T) is in an on state and when it is in an off state; a saturation voltage (VCE) of said transistor is determined from the two measured values; and the value of a corrected voltage (N0corr, N1corr) and the temperature around said sensor (10) are derived therefrom. A device for implementing said method is further described. The invention is particularly useful for automotive electronic systems.

Abstract: Beschrieben wird ein Verfahren zur Übertratung von Gebühreninformationen zur den Teilnehmeranschaltgeräten und zur Ausgabe von Gebührenimpulsen an der a/b-Schnittstelle der Teilnehmeranschaltgeräte in einem lokalen Vermittlungs- und Übertragungssystem, welches als eine lokale Funkzelle, bestehend aus einer zentralen Funkfeststation und einer Vielzahl von dezentralen Teilnehmeranschaltgeräten, organisiert und als Ortsvermittlungsstelle oder Nebenstelleneinrichtung an das öffentliche Fernmeldenetz angeschlossen ist, wobei erfindungsgemäß in der Basisstation jeder Funkzelle eine dem Standort angepaßte Entfernungszonentabelle gespeichert ist, die für den Ortsbereich und alle Fernmeldeverbindungen außerhalb des Ortsbereiches die Zeittaktinformationen für die Gebührenberechnung enthält, und wobei bei gehendem Verkehr eines Funkteilnehmers die von diesem gewählte Rufnummer automatisch mit der Entfernungszonentabelle verglichen, die zutreffende Zeittaktinformation entnommen und an das Teilnehmeranschaltgerät übertragen wird, welches Standard-Gebührenimpulse entsprechend dem übermittelten Zeittakt generiert und an der a/b-Schnittstelle ausgibt. Der Standardgebührenimpuls mit 12 kHz oder 16 kHz kann nicht über Funkkanäle übertragen werden, deren Übertragungsbandbreite auf das Sprachband von 300 Hz bis 3400 Hz begrenzt ist. Durch die angewandte Lösung wird erreicht, daß der Gebührenimpuls nicht wie bei anderen üblichen Verfahren als Ersatzsignal übertragen werden muß, welches in das Sprachband eingebettet ist, was erfahrungsgemäß die Übertratung der Signale von Modems und Faxgeräten stören würde.

Abstract: A rotor disposed in a fluid retarder which includes a annular shell having a semicircular cross section and a plurality of blades, each blade being composed of a semicircular blade body and a rib bent from an arcuate edge of the blade body and fixed to an inside of the shell. The annular shell and the blades are composed of sheet metal. The blades are arranged at regular intervals in the circumferential direction of the shell and are welded into place. Because the annular shell and the blades are composed of sheet metal and are brazed together, the cost of manufacturing the rotor can be reduced without reducing its performance.

Abstract: An anaesthetic system (2), mainly intended for a closed breathing circuit, is described. The anaesthetic system comprises an inspiratory line (6), an expiratory line (8) and a connecting line (10) which forms a closed gas line system with the inspiratory line (6) and the expiratory line (8). A first check valve (14) and a second check valve (34) are arranged in the connecting line (10) to control the direction of gas flow in the gas line system. A first gas reservoir (19) and a second gas reservoir (25) are also connected to the connecting line (10). The gas reservoirs (19, 25) are functionally interconnected so an increase in the volume of one results in a corresponding reduction in the volume of the other and vice-versa. The changes in volume are actively controlled by a control system (20, 22). During inspiration, respiratory gas is carried to the patient (4) from a hand ventilator (40) at the same time as respiratory gas is carried from the first gas reservoir (19) to the second gas reservoir (25). During expiration, respiratory gas is carried from the patient (4) to the first gas reservoir (19), and respiratory gas from the second gas reservoir (25) is carried to the hand ventilator (40) with a flow of fresh gas from a source of fresh gas (36). All flows are regulated to make them identical.

Abstract: The invention relates to a catheter around which a separate, flexible sheath is arranged. During insertion of the catheter, the catheter with sheath is carried via the oral cavity and the oesophagus to a position at a distance from for instance a wound in the stomach. The sheath is then withdrawn. This ensures that the catheter itself remains sterile since it does not come into contact with the oral cavity which normally contains a large number of bacteria.

Abstract: La solution précurseur (P22) selon l'invention, composée d'un complexe métallique polyoxyalkylé liquide dans un solvant, est appliquée à un substrat pour former une couche mince d'oxyde métallique (P26). Cette couche mince liquide est cuite (P28) à l'air à une température pouvant atteindre 500 °C, tandis qu'un rayonnement ultraviolet ayant une longueur d'onde comprise entre 180 nm et 300 nm est appliquée. La couche mince peut être cuite deux fois à des températures croissantes et le rayonnement ultraviolet appliqué à une ou aux deux cuissons. Cette couche est ensuite soumise à un recuit (P32) à une température comprise entre 700 °C et 850 °C de sorte qu'un produit d'oxyde métallique solide à couche mince soit obtenu. Selon une variante, le rayonnement ultraviolet est appliqué au précurseur liquide et la couche mince est recuite par rayonnement ultraviolet; il est possible de recourir à diverses combinaisons impliquant de telles applications du rayonnement ultraviolet au précurseur, à la couche mince avant et après la cuisson, et/ou le recuit par rayonnement ultraviolet.

IPC: B22F3/02

Abstract: A process is disclosed for forming a pressed metal part in which a preform is inserted into a pressed metal mold. The mold is then filled with powdered metal. The powdered metal and preform are compacted to create a compacted metal part wherein the preform defines an adjacent volume next to the compacted metal part. The compacted metal part is ejected from the mold and sintered to create a sintered metal part. The preform is removed by the sintering step in such a way that the adjacent volume becomes a void region. The preform can be formed of copper so that, upon sintering, the preform is removed from the sintered metal part through infiltration. Alternatively, the preform can be formed of zinc so that, upon sintering, the preform is vaporized and thereby removed from the sintered metal part. The void region created by the removal of the preform can be an undercut, a taper, an annular groove, a thread or an internal cavity. In this way, the present invention eliminates the need for machining such surfaces as has been necessary using previous compaction methods.
