Patent EP-0357182-A1 (EP)
Inventor: SIMAN ALFRED W
IPC: A61G7/057
Filed: 1989-06-14
Abstract: An apparatus (20) for decontaminating contaminated microspheres of a patient support system employing a fluidizing medium to fluidize the microspheres to provide support for the patient, includes a tank (25) having a diffuser (27) mounted therein forming a plenum in the bottom of the tank (25); a rigid shell (40) surrounds heat-insulating material (36) disposed around the outside of the tank (25). A recirculation channel (66) is defined in the shell (40) and a cover (44) seals the tank (25). An air heater (56) and a gas blower (50) provide hot air into the tank (25), to fluidize microspheres to be decontaminated which are placed inside the tank (25). A valve (74) permits a heating mode of operation, a cooling mode of operation, and a holding temperature mode of operation. The valve (74) is switched between modes of operation, by a control circuit (104) controlling the air heater (56), the valve (74) and the gas blower (50) according to a predetermined timed sequence of actuation. 
     The method involves sieving the contaminated microspheres before placing them into the tank (25) and fluidizing them with heated air until a predetermined holding temperature is maintained for a predetermined time. The heated air is recirculated. The decontaminated microspheres are cooled by introducing ambient air into the tank (25) and expelling the hot air from the tank (25). The heating of the gas is discontinued when the holding temperature is attained and resumed when the temperature falls below the holding temperature.

Filed: 1989-01-18
Abstract: In a static trip device with its own current, the measurement voltage Vm which is representative of the current crossing the conductor (12) to be protected and is applied to the input of an electronic processing unit (26), is also applied to the cathode of a thyristor (34) connected in series with the tripping coil (14) and receiving on its gate the commands for tripping the processing unit (26). A Zener diode (40) is connected between the gate of the thyristor and earth so as to fix an instantaneous trip level for the trip device. In this way, a short-circuit in the conductor causes instantaneous tripping of the circuit-breaker (10) independently of the value of the mains voltage (V).

Abstract: Ladite invention permet de maintenir généralement constante la teneur en solides dans un bassin de lavage, indépendamment des variations de la concentration de SO2, dans un procédé connu consistant en un stade de prélavage pour la séparation de HF, HCl et d'un stade de lavage principal, subséquent dans le sens des gaz, pour la séparation de SO2, où l'on fait circuler dans ces deux stades une solution de lavage et où, pendant le stade de lavage principal, après le lavage, des gouttelettes sont séparées du gaz d'échappement à l'aide d'un paregouttes et où, en cas de dérangement, la solution de lavage du stade de lavage principal est évacuée du bassin de lavage par un trop-plein et où la solution de lavage du stade de lavage principal, qui contient des solides, est décantée et l'eau en est extraite. On introduit la quantité d'eau supplémentaire (22) nécessaire pour faire fonctionner les tuyères du paregouttes (14) et variant en fonction de la quantité de gaz d'échappement (7) à purifier, on extrait la solution de lavage du bassin de lavage en quantité dépendant de la quantité de SO2 séparée, on prélève une partie de la solution de lavage (30) dans le circuit (9) du stade de lavage principal (8) et on la clarifie au moins en partie et, finalement, on réintroduit la fraction la plus riche en solides (23) dans le stade de lavage principal (8) et on évacue la fraction la moins riche en solides (31).

Abstract: The fluorescent lamp consists of a discharge space outwardly limited by a glass tube and of discharge electrodes as well as of an elongated inner element that limits inwardly the discharge space. The entire inner wall of the glass tube and the outer wall of the inner element are covered with a layer of fluorescent material and inside of the inner element, at least along a part of its entire length, an electrically conductive material is placed that is connected with a discharge electrode. In order to improve the lamp efficiency and also to reduce the cost of manufacture of such a lamp, the lamp according to the invention is so designed that the inner element is a support for the capacitor elements which are placed in the inner space of the inner element. The capacitor elements extend at least along a part of the entire length of the inner element. An electrical potential emitting from the said capacitor elements acts perpendicular against the known discharge current of the lamp. The said capacitor elements are connected through wires with a high frequency generator and other electronic ballast whereby the inner space of the inner element is open to atmospheric pressure, however, this inner space of the inner element is sealed gas-proof against the discharge space of the lamp.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for controlling actuation of an air bag restraint system. A deceleration sensor (24) provides a signal (26) having an RMS value which is functionally related to the value of the vehicle deceleration. An RMS thermal converter (28) converts the deceleration signal (26) into a converted voltage value (30). The converted voltage value is compared against a predetermined value, the predetermined value being indicative of a maximum deceleration value. If the converted voltage value of the deceleration signal exceeds the predetermined value, the air bag is actuated. A forced feedback arrangement (32) uses a differential amplifier (62) and a second, similar thermal sensor arrangement (66) in a balance circuit (54) so as to eliminate common-mode voltage errors. The feedback arrangement retains the converted value of the deceleration signal for a predetermined time period after the deceleration signal decays.

Abstract: In order to represent the bone structure of the body of a patient, tomodensitometry data is acquired along the same orientations, but with different irradiation energgy levels. Within each view the irradiations at these two energy levels are compared in order to deduce a set of images in two-dimensional projection representing the bone structure alone. With this aim, within the images in projection, to each image element is attributed a value corresponding to the thickness of bone traversed by an x-ray which has terminated at this image element. Next the bone structures and the vascular structures are represented in a combined way. The bone structures are shown with a lesser contrast, in such a way as to permit, by transparency, a vascular network to be seen. This lets the practitioner who is looking at the reconstructed angiography images to orient himself in space, taking account of the skeleton of the patient. <IMAGE>
