Title: Adjustable implantable genitourinary device
Inventor: BURTON JOHN H
IPC: A61F2/04
Filed: 1998-06-12
Granted: 2009-04-14
Abstract: An implantable medical device and method for adjustably restricting a select ed body lumen such as a urethra or ureter of a patient to treat urinary incontinence or ureteral reflux. The device includes an adjustable, self-sealing element having a continuous wall, including an inner surface defining a chamber. The adjustable element expands or contract s due to fluid volume introduced in the chamber for restricting a body lumen. After being implanted into a patient, the size of the adjustab le element is altered by first locating the adjustable element implanted adjacent the body lumen, and then establishing fluid communication with the adjustable element. The volume of the adjustable element is then adjusted by either introducing or removing volume from the chamber of the adjustable element.

IPC: B67D1/08
Filed: 1998-09-10
Granted: 2007-05-15
Abstract: A dispensing valve cap mountable to a bottle is provided with a first valve part having a tubular portion having an air inlet and a fluid outlet spaced apart along a longitudinal axis of the tubular portion to form a constant head valve for dispensing fluid from the bottle.  A second valve part of the valve rotatably mounted to the first valve part includes a tubular portion for simultaneously closing both the air inlet and the fluid outlet of the first valve part when fluid dispensing is not desired. The second valve part further includes an air inlet, and a fluid outlet alignable with the air inlet and fluid outlet of the tubular portion when fluid dispensing is desired. The dispensing valve cap controls fluid flow from the bottle. The bottle with the valve cap is usable with a dispenser assembly for mixing a concentrated fluid from the bottle with a dilutant. A tamper resistant lock prevents undesired rotation of the second valve part relative to the first valve part.  The tamper resistant lock is deactivated upon insertion of the valve cap into the dispenser assembly. An orifice insert member with a predetermined fluid control aperture is positioned in the fluid outlet path to control fluid flow rate through the valve cap.

Title: Method for on-line analysis of acid catalyst for hydrocarbon conversion process
Inventor: RANDOLPH BRUCE B
IPC: G01N21/35
Filed: 1998-12-16
Granted: 2005-05-03
Abstract: A computer implemented method for on-line determination of concentration in an HF alkylation process catalyst stream containing HF acid, ASO, water and optionally an additive which suppresses the vapor pressure of HF acid. The method employs near-infrared spectroscopy coupled with chemometric data analysis. T'he data analysis uses a partial least squares regression technique which determines unknown concentrations based on spectral calibration data. In use, an absorbance spectrum of material is obtained, e.g. from a slipstream taken from the process alkylation catalyst stream, and the detected spectrum is mathematically analyzed with the aid of the computer to simultaneously predict concentration of HF acid ASO, water and optionally the additive which suppresses the vapor pressure of HF acid.

Title: Integration de donnees supplementaires dans un signal code
Inventor: KAMPERMAN FRANCISCUS L A J
IPC: H04N21/2362
Filed: 2000-01-10
Granted: 2013-03-26
Abstract: Il existe deux procédés permettant d'intégrer des données supplémentaires, par exemple, pour appliquer un filigrane sur un signal codé. (1) Pour un codeur nécessitant des informations auxiliaires pour le codage (= informations de probabilité dans le cas présent), lesdites informations auxiliaires pour coder les données supplémentaires sont dérivées des autres données utilisées lors du codage. Il n'est pas nécessaire de mémoriser les données auxiliaires ainsi dérivées, ce qui rend l'intégration économique, du point de vue du nombre de bits utilisés. (2) Dans la procédure de codage utilisée pour les disques compacts audio, un ensemble de paramètres (par exemple, coefficients de filtres) est utilisé par le codeur. Ces paramètres doivent ainsi être mémorisés, car ils sont nécessaires pour le codage. Pour intégrer des données supplémentaires, au moins un des paramètres choisis, (par exemple, le bit le moins significatif du premier coefficient) est réglé à une valeur réservée en réponse à la valeur des données supplémentaires à intégrer. Ainsi, le débit binaire ne sera pas affecté du tout.

Inventor: VATER HARALD
IPC: G06F21/75
Filed: 1999-09-07
Granted: 2009-10-06
Abstract: The invention relates to a data carrier having a semiconductor chip (5) with at least one memory. The memory contains an operating program that is able to perform at least one operation (h).

Title: Addressing bistable nematic liquid crystal devices
Inventor: HUGHES JONATHAN RENNIE
IPC: G09G3/36
Filed: 2000-03-02
Granted: 2010-10-26
Abstract: A bistable nematic liquid crystal device is addressed by application of a row waveform to successive row electrodes of an x, y matrix of pixels whilst one of two data waveforms are applied to each column electrode. The row waveform has a period of two or more time slots (ts), with two dc pulses of opposite amplitude for causing a switching to a dark state, and two dc pulses of opposite amplitude for causing a switching to a light state.  The data waveforms have the same period as the strobe with dc pulses of opposite amplitude and combine with the strobe pulses to switch the device.  The device can be addressed in two field periods, one field switching to a dark state, the other field switching to a light state. Alternatively, the device can be blanked to the dark state then selectively switched to the light state. When blanking is used, the row waveform has blanking dc pulses placed a short time before selective switching to reduce overall addressing time. Zero voltage pulses may be used within the two or more time slot period of the strobe and data waveforms; these reduce rms. voltages appearing at the pixels and enhance contrast ratio.
