Title: Systeme de balayage pour tomodensitometrie
Inventor: ULLBERG CHRISTER
IPC: A61B6/00
Filed: 2010-04-29
Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système, pour enregistrer des données de tomodensitométrie (CT) d'un objet dans une zone objet (4), qui comporte une source de rayons X (5) et un détecteur de rayons X (6) de chaque côté de la zone objet. Le détecteur de rayons X comporte un empilement d'agencements de réseaux de détecteurs allongés (6a) agencés en parallèle et disposés pour détecter des rayons X (9a) provenant de la source de rayons X, transmis à travers l'objet, enregistrant ainsi des images de l'objet. Un dispositif (10a) est utilisé pour faire tourner la source de rayons X (5) et le détecteur de rayons X (6) autour d'un axe de rotation qui est parallèle aux agencements de réseaux de détecteurs allongés, alors que les agencements de réseaux de détecteurs allongés sont utilisés pour une imagerie répétée de l'objet. En outre, soit les agencements de réseaux de détecteurs allongés sont déplacés à l'intérieur du détecteur de rayons X, soit l'axe de rotation est déplacé durant la rotation, pour permettre ainsi aux agencements de réseaux de détecteurs allongés d'enregistrer les données CT.

Abstract: An apparatus and method operable for the continuous monitoring of a gas stream including an optical sensor oper-able to monitor and/or measure Hg concentrations in a flue gas by calculating the absorbance of the ultraviolet light thereby at a range of wavelength 253.7 nm +/- 0.05 nm. The apparatus therefore provides as a spectrally narrow UV light source, a mercury lamp. The spectrally broad UV light source includes a UV LED. A 2X2 coupler is provided to mix the narrow and broad UV light energy which is propagated through the gas stream. The invention recognizes that measurement of radiation absorption at the 254 nm +/- 1.5 nm range will result in not only from Hg0, but also from the SO2 component in the flue gas. To compensate for sulphur dioxide, measurement of energy absorption for both specially narrow radiant energy in the 253.7 nm +/- 0.5 nm range, as well as ultraviolet (UV) light at a comparatively spectrally broad range of 254 nm +/-20 nm is performed recognizing that sulphur diox-ide in the emitted flue gas will tend to absorb the ultraviolet light over the broader UV range. Ultraviolet light absorption over the broader range is calculated to piovide a correction factor used to correct energy absorption values over the narrow radiant energy range, providing more accurate measurement of the absorption caused by the presence of mercury.

Abstract: In a nonreturn valve having a tubular body, which can be installed in a vertical section of an exhaust line, a valve seat, formed within the tubular body, for at least one float, and at least one circumferential groove, which is open in the downstream direction, the intention is to make available a solution by means of which it is possible to provide a nonreturn valve that is simple, advantageous in terms of production engineering and has a particularly high performance, and to do so in a way which is simple in terms of design and is economical. This is achieved by virtue of the fact that the circumferential rim of the at least one float projects radially over the radially inner circumferential wall section and has an axial lip facing upstream, which extends into the circumferential groove in the axial direction when the at least one float is resting on the valve seat.

Title: A method to reuse or use a limited range of codes for different nodes distributed geographically
Inventor: ABBASI SAMANEH
IPC: H04L12/24
Filed: 2012-07-09
Abstract: [1] The present invention is a method to use and/or reuse a limited range of codes or numbers to different nodes or locations which are distributed geographically. This method may have different applications in different industries. More specifically, the application of this invention is for assigning the codes to the wireless nodes where there is a need of avoiding the conflict of the nodes with the same codes. The goal is how to select a proper code for a new node. The new code has to have the maximum distance from another node holding the same code. For example if we are assigning a range of integer codes between 1 and 10 and we need to define a new node and assign a code, the new code will be 5 if the distance of another node with the same code (5) is farther than the nodes holding one of these codes: 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9 and 10. This method may guarantee that for each new node the selected code is far enough from another node having the same code. . In all the figures of this document the geographical location of the nodes are demonstrated; for example in Fig.1 the node with code 1 is closer to the node with code 3 than the node with code 5. [2] In this document a "proper code", "best code" and similar terms are for the codes whose their nodes with the same code are far or farther than all or many of the other nodes. The reason is the farther code avoids less negative interaction. In this document node means any device which needs a code with specific location coordination.
