Abstract: The finger joint prosthesis consists of two prosthesis halves which slide upon one another and which can be anchored respectively in one of the bone ends (1, 2) belonging to the joint. The prosthesis halves consist of a sintered structure of hydroxyapatite, can be anchored in the form of tapering journals (3, 4) in the bone (1, 2), and are separated from one another by an intermediate element (6) which is capable of sliding and inhibits the formation of bone. The journals (3, 4) form, together with the intermediate element (6) which is anchored on one of the journals, concave and convex bearing surfaces which are adapted to one another and permit a guided movement in a flexion-extension plane.

Abstract: Un circuit pour système de freins à anti-dérapeur et/ou régulateur de patinage à l'entraînement et à circuits de reconnaissance de courbes comprend des circuits de sélection (8, 9) qui sélectionnent selon des critères déterminés la vitesse de la roue motrice ainsi que des étages de filtrage (10, 11) dont les constantes de temps sont variables (10, 11) (12). Ces circuits de sélection et étages de filtrage servent à former des vitesses de référence latérales (13, 14). Un signal différentiel (DVS) (15) formé à partir des vitesses de référence latérales (SRFL, SRGR) présente une hauteur variable par réaction inverse. Ce signal différentiel (DVS) sert à commander un circuit d'adaptation (18) en fonction de la vitesse de référence du véhicule (VREF), qui influe sur les seuils de réglage du système anti-dérapeur et anti-patinage à l'entraînement (7), afin d'adapter ces systèmes aux particularités de la conduite dans des courbes.

Abstract: Un procédé de réglage de données d'apprentissage dans un système de détection visuelle permet de régler de manière automatique et rapide des données d'apprentissage. Une image circulaire d'essai est traitée afin de déterminer approximativement les valeurs de consigne de six paramètres (P1 à P6) correspondants au diamètre, à la longueur circonférentielle, à la superficie, au degré de distorsion d'un cercle, au type de filtre de lissage et au type de filtre préaccentueur. Les positions centrales des valeurs de consigne dans les images sont déterminées en traitant plusieurs images d'essai avec ces valeurs de consigne approximatives. On règle les deuxième, troisième et quatrième paramètres sur les valeurs de consigne approximatives et on modifie le premier paramètre, déterminant ainsi (100) automatiquement une valeur optimale pour le premier paramètre qui minimise la somme de la puissance au carré des erreurs entre les positions centrales détectées des images et les positions centrales réglées. De même, on détermine des deuxième, troisième et quatrième valeurs optimales (101 à 103). En outre, onrègle les premier, deuxième, troisième et quatrième paramètres sur des valeurs optimales et on modifie les types de filtres utilisés pour traiter les images afin de déterminer les cinquième et sixième paramètres optimaux (108, 109).

Abstract: A cutting device for cutting an objection such as a citrus fruit includes a cutting assembly and an outer casing about the cutting assembly. The casing is generally cylindrical having a central axis, and has open ends. The cutting blade assembly includes a first cutting blade extending radially outward from the central axis to a sidewall of the casing, the first cutting blade cutting the fruit in a manner so as to completely sever one portion thereof from another. The cutting assembly further includes a second cutting blade extending outwardly radially from the central axis toward the sidewall of the casing, but not reaching the sidewall, the second cutting blade cutting the object in a manner so as to partially sever one portion of the object from another. In use, the fruit is introduced into the cutting device at the first open end, is forced over the cutting assembly, and exits the cutting device at the second end. The invention also describes a scooping device for use on a fruit having a generally spherical shape with an outer peel and an inner edible portion. A bisected piece of fruit is subject to the action of a scooping device having a generally hemispherical shaped scooping member with a dome and a substantially circular edge which forms a cutting blade. The scooping device has a shaft extending outwardly from a point on the outer surface, so that rotation of the shaft causes rotation of the scooping member which can be used to remove the edible inner portion of the fruit. The invention also relates to a cutting device assembly comprising a plurality of cutting devices and actuated pushing blocks to successively force fruit through a series of cutting devices. Further, there is provided a scooping device assembly wherein a plurality of scooping members, and bases for holding fruit are provided for mass removal of the inner edible portion of the fruit.

Abstract: An apparatus to separate gaseous substances from a liquid is described, having, prior to a flow meter, a cylindrical gas separation chamber having a tangential inlet for production of an eddy current in the chamber and an outlet (2) arranged in the lower region of the chamber, in which, above the inlet, a gas collection space (19) is provided, having a gas discharge opening which can be controlled by the liquid level in the chamber by means of a float (12). According to the invention, the float (12) is guided in a float housing (7), furnished with orifices and arranged in the central cover part (6) of the separation chamber, an essentially horizontally arranged annular partition wall (15) being further provided directly above the inlet (1) and the float housing passing through the central hole with clearance until the vicinity of the inlet part (5). In a further development of the invention it is proposed that a spiral guiding part is arranged in the inlet part, so that the inflowing liquid stream, after passing through 360 DEG C, flows onto the subsequent liquid stream in a laminar fashion. This design of the separation chamber permits the pressure drops in the separation chamber to be drastically lowered and, on the other hand, the height of the whole unit to be reduced. <IMAGE>

Title: Forging machine
IPC: B21J7/14
Filed: 1991-12-30
Granted: 1993-07-14
Abstract: For the forging of workpieces with a pronounced longitudinal axis, use is made of forging machines which are provided with three or more rams distributed in one plane, in particular with four rams offset relative to one another by 90 DEG  in an X shape, acting radially on the workpiece guided longitudinally along the axis of the system and fitted with tools. In order to achieve a compact construction of such forging machines and, at the same time, to achieve ram guides with little play, the rams are, according to EP 0 228 658 B1, designed as pistons or cylinders of piston-cylinder units and guided directly, i.e. not in staggered formation. Starting from this prior art, it is the object of the invention to avoid both double-acting pistons and ram retraction mechanisms acting by way of shafts. This object is achieved by virtue of the fact that, taking rams (2) designed as or connected to cylinders as a basis, the rams (2) or cylinders connected to them are, according to the invention, each provided with or connected to a flange (19) and each surrounded by a ring (17) which engages behind the flange (19), each ring (17) and the cross-beam (15) assigned to it and intended for stroke-position adjustment being connected and piston-cylinder units (22, 20) for the retraction of the rams (2) being arranged between each ring (17) and the associated flange (19). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Jaws (38) can move between gripping and release positions. The passage to the release position is controlled by a slide (42) under the action of a ramp (48) and via tenons (44) which are attached to the slide (42) and which slide in grooves (46). The reverse movement is controlled by the same parts under the action of a return spring which acts on the slide (42). The transmission of movement by the systems with tenons (44) and grooves is irreversible, so that the neck (2) of a bottle held between the jaws (48) cannot become dislodged: a force (F1) applied to the jaws (38) cannot move the slide to open the jaws (38). Used to obtain fast machines without increasing the clamping force on the treated objects (bottles).
