Patent EP-0478587-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ELLOY MARTIN ARTHUR
IPC: A61F2/38
Filed: 1990-06-04
Abstract: Un ensemble d'éléments à partir duquel il est possible de construire une prothèse du genou comporte une pluralité d'éléments, tels que des éléments du fémur (1, 2, 3, 4), de tibia et de ménisque (11, 12, 13). Chacun des éléments comporte une surface d'appui destinée à entrer en contact d'appui avec une surface d'appui correspondante d'un autre élément. Tous les éléments du fémur ont des surfaces d'appui à contact d'os identiques, (1b, 2b, 3b, 4b) mais celles-ci sont de tailles et de dimensions différentes (1a, 2a, 3a, 4a). Etant donné que le profil de toutes les surfaces d'appui à contact d'os des éléments du fémur différents est le même, le chirurgien n'est pas obligé de décider à l'avance de la taille de prothèse requise.

Abstract: Un monomère d'AB-polybenzoxazole, tel que l'acide 3-amino-4-hydroxybenzoïque, peut être synthétisé en quantités produites élevées à partir d'un acide hydroxy-benzoïque ou à partir d'un composé associé, au moyen d'un procédé en trois étapes de (1) nitration, (2) hydrolyse de l'ester et (3) réduction de la fraction nitro. Le monomère est avantageusement récupéré comme sel de phosphate avec un niveau de pureté élevé par précipitation et recristallisation à partir d'une solution d'acide phosphorique. Le monomère peut êtrepolymérisé en concentrations élevées dans de l'acide polyphosphorique contenant des niveaux élevés de P2O5 de façon à produire un polymère de poids moléculaire élevé sans déshydrohalogénation.

Abstract: The invention relates to a frame for a work or office desk, consisting of two side table legs (30), whose upper ends are fixedly connected to one another by means of U-shaped connecting bars (36) and a cross-beam and whose lower ends are fitted with foot elements (37, 38) directed towards the front and rear side of the work or office table. The cross-beam is shaped in the manner of a trough and is open at the top and has side walls constructed as hollow profiles. The cross-beam can be closed by means of a cable duct covering (28) and additional equipment can be mounted on the cross-beam. The additional equipment can be mounted due to the fact that the cross-beam with the side walls is constructed as a sheet metal profile section (20), that U-shaped connecting bars (36) are inserted into the receptacle of the sheet metal profile section (20) at both ends, which bars are connected to the sheet metal profile section (20) and the table legs (30), and that insert connectors (50) are inserted into the ends of the side walls constructed as hollow profiles of the sheet metal profile section (20), the insert connectors having attachment receptacles for mounting the additional equipment which are accessible at the end sides and via gaps in the side walls of the sheet metal profile section (20).

Patent EP-0481264-A1 (EP)
Inventor: CASSADAY ERNEST W
IPC: G01N9/32
Filed: 1991-09-26
Abstract: A process for monitoring fluid density by use of a fluidic jet oscillator (26) absent the necessity for a high-precision pressure regulator. Fluid is delivered to the fluidic oscillator (26) via a pressure divider (28). As the fluid flows through the oscillator the latter generates a pressure wavetrain at a frequency which is indicative of the density of the fluid, but is inaccurate to the extent that the pressure difference across the oscillator varies from a predetermined value. A differential pressure transducer (30) senses the pressure difference. Accordingly, the process is adapted for use with a gated sampling and control system (84) which operatively responds to the oscillator output only when the differential pressure is substantially in accord with a predetermined value thereof.

Abstract: An internal combustion engine (13) includes a cylinder head (12) and a spark plug assembly (10) adapted to be received in a cylinder head bore (20). The spark plug assembly (10) includes a metal ground electrode element (40) having an annulus (44) disposed on a transverse annular seat (30) of the cylinder head bore (20) and a ground side electrode (50) extending from the annulus (44). The ground side electrode (50) is received in an axial slot (32) of the cylinder head bore (20) between the annular seat (30) and a cylinder head inner wall (16) and protrudes into the combustion chamber (18). The orientation of the ground electrode (50) relative to the cylinder head (12), and thus to the geometry of the combustion chamber (18), is established by the circumferential location of the axial slot (32) relative to the bore (20). The spark plug assembly (10) also includes a centre electrode element (42) having a centre electrode (60) and surrounding insulator body (62). The insulator body (62) includes a shoulder (76) that is clamped against the ground electrode annulus (44) on the seat by a spanner retainer nut (82) threaded into the cylinder head bore (20) about the insulator body (62). The ground electrode element (40) and the centre electrode element (42) are thereby secured in position in the cylinder head bore (20).

Abstract: A method and an apparatus for measured injection of additives into oil products and the like, in particular aims at the filling of fuel in tank farms for transport by tank trucks. Each batch of fuel shall have a pre-set proportion of additive. After each terminated filling and successively at a number larger than one, there is recorded a signal (S6) which represents discrepancies between actually supplied amount of additive and the amount which corresponds to the pre-set proportion. From the first signal (S6) there is calculated a further signal (S7) which represents discrepancies throughout said number of fillings and this further signal serves as a reference or correction value during the subsequent filling operation. A particular supply conduit (10) for fuel is adapted to give a through flow of fuel in order to remove remaining amounts of additive from the measuring system itself. The object is to obtain a substantially improved accuracy in injected proportion of additive in a batch of fuel being loaded or unloaded, and to avoid intermixing of different additives.
