Abstract: A method and apparatus for screening or sensing disease states, injury sites or bodily conditions in a human or animal subject by separately detecting the DC biopotential of the electromagnetic field at a plurality of test points in a test area. The DC biopotentials are converted by analog to digital converters connected to DC biopotential test sensors at the test points into digital test signals, and the DC biopotential test sensors and analog to digital converters form a biopotential sensing section which is separate from a processing section that receives and processes the digital test signals. Signals between the processing section and the biopotential sensing section are transmitted by a transmission network which electrically isolates the two sections. The conversions performed by the analog to digital converters are synchronized with the AC line frequency of the apparatus power supply, and the digital test signals are filtered in the processing section by digital filters, each of which is dedicated to an individual DC biopotential test sensor. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A medical waste disposal system for contaminated products to be disposed having a hollow, disposal container and a housing enclosure which is engageable with and covers the container. The housing enclosure has an opening and a tumbler which is pivotally mounted to prevent access to the interior of the housing enclosure when a contaminated product is being deposited into the interior of the disposal container. In one embodiment, upon dropping waste into the opening of the housing enclosure, the tumbler rotates to simultaneously close the upper opening in the housing enclosure and open a lower opening which allows the waste to drop into the disposal container. After the waste has dropped, the tumbler, which is weighted, returns to its original position. When the disposal container reaches full capacity, the tumbler is blocked by the medical waste in the disposal container thereby preventing rotation to the open position. In an additional embodiment, a tumbler having an angled tip portion is provided which forms a lower passage to permit passage of waste while simultaneously blocking the accessibility beyond the interior of the housing enclosure without the need to fully rotate the tumbler to a closed position. The housing enclosure is also provided with a portion having a squared or sloping contour to prevent sharps from passing or being ejected back through the opening of the container. The housing enclosure also includes a lid having a lock securely closing the medical waste disposal system for final disposal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A twin-wire gap former in a paper machine in which an outer wire and an inner wire are guided by guide rolls and by web forming members. The wires form a twin-wire zone which starts from a forming gap into which a slice part of a headbox feeds a stock suspension jet. The forming gap is followed by a curved portion of the twin-wire zone which is guided by a first forming roll placed inside the loop of one of the wires. The forming-gap arrangement includes two opposite tip plates which define a slice channel between them. The lip plates extend deep into the forming gap so that the free ends of the lip plates are placed in direct vicinity of the forming wires or in contact with the wires. On the curve sector of the twin-wire zone, which starts after the forming gap and which is guided by the first forming roll, inside the loop of one of the wires, a water drainage box is provided, at which box the edges of the sides that are placed against the inner face to the wire are substantially sealed. The water drainage box is connected to devices which regulate the pressure/pressures in the space or spaces placed in the interior of the box and are filled with water. Then, the drainage of water is controlled both in the forming gap and on the curve sector following after the forming gap.
