Abstract: The present invention relates to a plasma reaction apparatus and a plasma reaction method of a persistent gas. More particularly, the present invention relates to a plasma reaction apparatus which is applied to the reforming of fuel by generating rotating arc plasma and using the rotating arc being generated, the chemical treatment of a persistent gas, and a plasma reaction method using the same.  For this purpose, a raw material for a reaction is allowed to flow through an inflow hole in a swirl structure so that the raw material forms a rotating flow to progress. Accordingly, the raw material is sufficiently reacted in a plasma reaction space of a restrictive volume, and a high temperature plasma reaction is more promptly performed. Furthermore, a plasma reaction zone is expanded, prior to discharge, by a broad area chamber formed as the width of an upper part of a furnace is expanded, and plasma being generated is expanded and stayed as a pointed end spaced from an electrode at a predetermined interval is formed at an expanded end. Accordingly, the present invention relates to a plasma reaction apparatus and a plasma reaction method of a persistent gas, and an apparatus decreasing NOx by an occlusion catalyst, all of which are capable of excluding the discontinuity of the plasma reaction zone.

Abstract: A prosthetic aortic valve includes an annular, annulus inflow portion that is designed to reside in or near the patient's native aortic valve annulus, and an annular, aortic outflow portion that is designed to reside in the patient's aorta downstream from at least a portion of the valsalva sinus. The annulus inflow portion and the aortic outflow portion are connected to one another by a plurality of connecting struts that are confined to regions near the commissures of the patient's native aortic valve. The connecting struts are designed to bulge out into the valsalva sinus to help anchor the prosthetic valve in place. The valve is circumferentially collapsible to a relatively small diameter for less-invasive delivery into the patient. The valve circumferentially expands to a larger operational diameter when deployed at the implant site.

Abstract: A method of fabricating thin and thick film resistors which results in stable resistance characteristics, ability to withstand high current or voltage and a precise method of trimming small resistors. After the resistor film (20) and contacts (22 and 23) thereto are formed, the resistors are trimmed by a cut (24) along - the length dimension so that the width of the current path is reduced uniformly. The waste portion of the resistor is then separated from the circuit by a cut (2) along its width. Current crowding in the vicinity of the cut is therefore essentially eliminated.

Abstract: A pump including a floating piston (64) mounted in a cavity of a cylindrical body (32) rotated by a shaft (14). A timing chamber (62) and a metering chamber (60) are formed on either side of the floating piston (64). The amount of fuel admitted to either chamber (60, 62) is controlled by a single electromagnetic valve (20). The duration of energization of the valve (20) determines the fuel supply to the chamber (60) from a supply annulus (40) through passageways (82, 84, 86, 88). Upon completion of fuel metering into the chamber (60), the valve (20) is de-energized and the fuel is admitted from the supply annulus (40) into the timing chamber (62) and also by means of a passageway (72) to the opposing faces of a pair of pumping plungers (66, 68) forcing them outward towards a predetermined position. For initiating injection the plungers are forced radially inward by an annular cam (80), thereby increasing the pressure within the timing chamber (62) and displacing the floating piston (64), thereby forcing the fuel out of the metering chamber (60) into a discharge connection.

Abstract: The invention concerns a means for removing gaseous components and/or solid impurities present in a gaseous fluid flow. The means (10) comprises a frame structure (11, 12), a fluid flow inlet connector (13), disposed within the frame structure (11, 12) a scrubber means (15), an exit connector (14) for carrying off the purified fluid flow, and a connector (20) for introducing scrubbing liquid into the means (10) and contacting it with the fluid flow. The scrubbing liquid exit flow has been disposed to pass through the fluid flow inlet connector (13) in opposite direction with reference to the fluid flow. The end region (21) adjacent to the scrubber means (15) of the fluid flow inlet connector (13) has a diminishing cross sectional diameter to the purpose of accelerating the flowing fluid flow before the fluid flow enters the scrubber means (15). The inlet connector (13) has been provided with holes (22) which have been adapted to receive into the inlet connector (13) the return flow of the scrubbing liquid. The holes (22) have been disposed in that region of the inlet connector (13) where the flow of the fluid flow is not accelerated, whereby the scrubbing liquid return flow within the inlet connector (13) is prevented from being entrained with the fluid flow and produces pre-purification of the fluid flow.
