Abstract: A treatment device which uses cold red and infrared radiation for the photodynamic stimulation of cells, especially cells of human tissue. The described device produces a constant energy radiation by the use of semiconductor and/or laser diodes, which furthermore radiate light in several separate wavelengths due to a special operation mode. With help of sensors the advanced controller system is able to test the patients for the needed radiation doses in order to avoid overstimulation. Furthermore the radiation openings in the applicators are advantageously covered with a polarization filter, whereby the absorption in the irradiated tissue is increased. The basic equipment consists of a standpillar, with which machine applicators are connected with a jointed arm. The machine applicators are adapted for the treatment of large area tissues, for example, the back of humans. The standpillar is freely movable on wheels and includes a control mechanism, whereby the various parameters for therapy can be adjusted and switched ON and OFF. The standpillar is also connected to a hand applicator designed for the treatment of small tissue areas, e.g., acupuncture points. Another version of the hand applicator is especially devised for dental treatment, whereby the head piece of the hand applicator can be connected with an expander containing an optical fiber. Photodynamic substances are introduced into tissue to be treated, which enhances the effects of light irradiation by the inventive device.

Abstract: The invention relates to a system for air-conditioning buildings with a glass facade (10, 12) which is flowed through by air. Situated in the intermediate space (14) of the facade between the outer and inner shell (10, 12) are blinds (30, 32) which on each storey are divided into an upper reflection blind (30) with mainly light-reflecting transverse slats (34) and, adjacent to this towards the bottom, a lower absorption blind (32) with mainly light-absorbing transverse slats (36). The reflection and absorption blinds (30, 32), which extend in pairs over the height of the respective storey, are jointly height-adjustable for adjustment purposes. The interspace (14) of the facade can be acted upon by incoming air in the lower region, in relation to the storey, of the outer part space (14') situated between outer shell (10) and blind (30, 32), while the air collectors (24) are arranged in the upper region, in relation to the storey, of the inner part space (14'') situated between blind (30, 32) and inner shell (12). The air, which is heated in particular on the transverse slats (36) of the absorption blinds (32) is conducted into the interior (68) of the building for heating and ventilating purposes.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method of controlling the grab bucket of a rope excavator with a boom pivotably linked to a revolving superstructure. To achieve the object of automatically controlling the grab bucket of the rope excavator in such a way that the tolerance for the excavation can be accurately adhered to, the rope length is measured at the winch drum and is corrected by a correction value which takes into account the boom length, the difference between the winch-drum periphery and the periphery of the boom sheave, the offset length from the winch centre point to the jib pivot point, the inclination of the revolving superstructure relative to the normal level, and the boom angle, which is determined by angular measurement at the jib pivot point, in order to determine the effective hook height.

Abstract: To manufacture an electronically synchronisable display device, the pointer of which can be rotated between a zero stop and a scale end via a multi-step transmission by means of a stepping motor, the stepping motor exhibiting a two-pole rotor of magnetisable material, two coils arranged perpendicularly to one another and a housing enclosing the coils and being activatable by microprocessor, a method is proposed which is characterised by the fact that   - a stepping motor with non-magnetisable rotor, a transmission and a pointer with a torsion spring acting in the direction of the scale end are assembled, - the pointer is brought to rest against a zero stop by means of a torque applied from outside against a restoring force of the torsion spring, - the rotor of the stepping motor is rotated in the direction of the zero stop of the pointer by means of a rotating magnetic field entraining the transmission wheels until there is no further play in the transmission, and - the rotor is held in the position reached and then magnetised in a predetermined angular alignment.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a QAM signal demodulation system able to: recovery phase and frequency of the carrier and baseband convert the signal, also when frequency errors are remarkable with respect to the frequency of symbol (low capacity links); reconstruct the synchronism of symbol for correctly sampling the analog signal to be processed; complete the shaping of the signal through a digital filter and equalize the baseband converted signal (in order to undo the selective fading effects due to propagation and the linear distortions due to imperfections in the realization of the apparatus). 
     Therefore the system comprises several subsystems devoted to the performing of the various functions and, in particular, at least:
     A) a carrier frequency and phase recovery subsystem,   B) a subsystem for reconstructing the synchronism of the symbol capable of driving the signal sampling circuit,   C) a subsystem constituted of filters.    The present invention is concerned with the choice of the particular subsystem used, their implementation and their interconnections.

Abstract: To be able to transmit television pictures in a digital form through a medium having a limited bandwidth, the pictures are subjected to picture transform and to variable-length coding. The picture to be transmitted is converted in this manner into a bit stream comprising code words of variable length. This bit stream is converted into a channel bit stream which is less sensitive to transmission errors. To this end the most significant code words (representing the average luminance and the coarse picture details) of sub-pictures of 8*8 pixels are accommodated at fixed bit positions of the channel bit stream. These code words can be retrieved by simple count-down of the bit positions. The other code words are distributed over the other bit positions. The decoder is relatively simple because the length of each block comprising significant code words is also transmitted. This length is preferably adapted to the extent of picture detail in the sub-picture.

Abstract: A visco-elastic polymer liner (150) for use in donning over a residual limb (26) and fitting within the socket (146) of an artificial limb (140). The liner is shaped to have its cavity formed with a volume and shape less than a volume and shape of the residual limb for both tension and tissue configuration relief while the liner has an outer surface formed with a volume and shape greater than the volume and shape of the artificial limb socket for relief of certain tissue configurations and to create weight bearing, relief and compression areas on and in the liner to absorb and dissipate shock, shear and mechanical forces through the liner otherwise transmitted to the residual limb. The liner may have imbedded on its inner cavity side electrodes (152,154) adjacent muscles (38,40) that are sensitive to the muscle action potentials to generate signals to a power source to move an articulable artificial limb. The liner may take the shape of a tube to be donned over a paralyzed limb similarly having electrodes imbedded in its inner cavity side adjacent neuromuscular junctions which are connected to a muscle action potential generator to activate flexion and extension of the paralyzed limb. A method for making the liner is also claimed which comprises the making of a positive model of the residual limb, reducing the model, forming the liner about the reduced model and laminating a hard socket over a reduced model of the liner.
