Patent EP-0842639-A3 (EP)
IPC: A61B17/16
Filed: 1997-11-03
Abstract: A machining assembly, including a broach design, is disclosed for preparing a femoral medullary cavity (C) for receipt of a femoral prosthetic stem (S) in hiparthroplasty, wherein the configuration of the implantation site allows for the neutral alignment of the prosthesis (S) within the medullary cavity (C) for improved rigid fixation of the stem (S) therein. Aspects of the machining assembly include a broach (10) comprising a proximal lateral recess (13) that allows for initial avoidance of the greater trochanter during implantation, thereby resulting in the preparation of a neutrally aligned cavity with respect to the broach. The machining assembly also includes a guide (200) and second cutting instrument (208) for removing the bone of the greater trochanter (1) once neutral alignment between the medullary cavity (C) and broach (10) are achieved for the subsequent implantation of a neutrally aligned femoral prosthesis (S). Methods for use of the assembly are also disclosed.

Abstract: For use in a wireless computer network having a radio
relay capable of transmitting messages, a system and
method, operable with the radio relay, for selectively
repeating a unicast message received from a source end-station
only upon some indication that a destination end-station
has not received the message. The system
includes: (1) a transceiver that receives the unicast
message from the source end-station and (2) control
circuitry, coupled to the transceiver, that determines
whether the destination end-station has received the
unicast message and causes the transceiver to refrain from
repeating the unicast message if the destination end-station
has received the unicast message, the radio relay
thereby freed from repeating already-received unicast
messages.

The first meander patterns can be formed in even and odd first meander patterns. The even and odd first meander patterns are 180 deg. out of phase with each other, and the odd patterns occur between every two even patterns. The second meander patterns are intertwined with the first meander patterns. The first and second directions can be orthogonal to each other. The second meander patterns can also be formed of even and odd patterns.

Abstract: To provide an automatic winding machine wherein even if a yarn splicing
operation is carried out during the reduction of pressurizing tension at the
time of winding yarn splicing, the subsequent winding tension can be maintained
at an appropriate value depending on the amount of remaining yarn. In an
automatic winding machine including a tension apparatus 2 that can adjust
pressurizing tension by reducing it at a predetermined rate at the time of
winding yarn splicing, a rapid pressure reduction pattern used after a yarn
splicing operation during pressure reduction at the time of winding yarn
splicing is different from a rapid pressure reduction pattern used after the
yarn splicing operation during normal winding.

Abstract: Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Verfahren zur Vermeidung von Getriebegeräuschen
bei zahnradgetriebenen Luftpressern von Brennkraftmaschinen. Luftpresser haben die
Eigenschaft nach Überschreiten des oberen Totpunktes durch Rückexpansion ein negatives
Drehmoment auszuüben, so daß es bei zahnradgetriebenen Luftpressern zum
Abheben der im Eingriff stehenden Zahnflanken, mit nachfolgendem Aufeinanderschlagen
der nicht im Eingriff stehenden Zahnflanken kommt. Das Resultat sind unangenehme
Getriebegeräusche. Diese werden erfindungsgemäß dadurch vermieden, daß
an der Kurbelwelle 5 des Luftpresser 1 ein weiterer Verbraucher sitzt der ständig ein
Drehmoment abnimmt, so daß das Abheben der Zahnflanken im Zustand der Rückexpansion
vermieden wird. Erfindungsgemäß kann es sich hier um eine Riemenscheibe 7
handeln, welche weitere Drehmomentabnehmer wie z.B. Lichtmaschine, Kühlmittelpumpe
etc. antreibt. Eine weitere Möglichkeit ist der Antrieb einer Hydraulikpumpe 14
Fig. 2 für die Lenkhilfe, wobei auf der Spindel der Hydraulikpumpe 14 auch noch die
Riemenscheibe 7 für weitere Antriebe angeordnet sein kann.

Abstract: A calibrated Delay Locked Loop (DLL) arrangement
synchronizes an output data signal thereof to an input
clock signal. A delay line receives the input clock
signal and generates a clock output signal having a
selective delay. A gating circuit receives the clock
output signal and separately generates an imitation data
signal that corresponds to the clock output signal, and
latches an input data signal with the output clock signal
to generate an output data signal. The gating circuit is
also responsive to a switching control signal having a
first logical value for providing only the output data
signal to an output thereof, and to the switching control
signal having a second logical value for providing only
the imitation data signal to an output thereof. A driver
receives the gating circuit output signal and provides
this signal as the calibrated DLL arrangement output data
signal. A phase comparator in a feedback loop from the
output of the driver is responsive to the switching
control signal having the second logical value for
comparing the input clock signal and the imitation data
signal appearing at the driver output, and for causing
the delay line to selectively synchronize the imitation
data signal to the input clock signal. A switching
control signal having the first logical value idles the
phase comparator and maintains a latest delay introduced
by the delay line.

Abstract: The invention relates to an automatic shift for a two
speed hydrostatic motor (35) on a compact tractor (1). A
pressure sensor (54) monitors the pressure in a working
line (25, 28) supplying fluid from a pump (33) to the
motor (35). When the pressure exceeds a pre-determined
pressure for a certain time interval, a controller (53)
signals a solenoid (42) to shift a pilot valve (40)
allowing fluid to shift a torque valve (45). The shifting
of the torque valve (45) allows fluid to reach cylinders
(47) which shift a swash plate (36) controlling the
motor's speed. Conversely, if there is a reduction in
pressure below a further pre-determined pressure, the
controller (53) deactivates the solenoid (42), whereby the
pilot valve (40) and torque valve (45) return to their
previous positions. In addition, a switch (101) is
provided to allow the operator to select an automatic mode
or to allow the motor (35) to remain at either a high or a
