Patent EP-1277054-A1 (EP)
Inventor: EDEN ROBERT DAVID
IPC: C12M1/34
Filed: 2001-04-25
Abstract: An electrochemical sensor and method for using such a sensor to monitor signals generated by biological cells. The sensor comprises a first well for receiving a culture medium including biological cells, the first well including a working electrode a portion of which is exposed to any liquid introduced into the well. The exposed surface is capable of supporting a layer of biological cells. An adjacent second well receives an in situ reference electrode or can receive an inserted electrode, the two wells being separated by a wall. The wall is arranged such that, if the first well is filled with an electrochemically conductive culture medium to a first level sufficient to immerse the working electrode, and the second well is filled with an electrochemically conductive culture medium to a second level, electrochemical continuity is established between the liquids within the wells. The electrochemical activity of cells forming a confluent layer on the working electrode can be determined by monitoring signals developed between the working and reference electrodes. Electrochemical continuity between the working two cells can be achieved in various ways, for example by forming an opening in the wall, e.g. a notch in an upper edge of the wall, or positioning an ion permeable material between the wells. A common reference electrode can be provided in a single second well or extending beneath a series of second wells.

Abstract: The present invention provides a strut mount comprising
an inner member 12 to which an upper extremity of a rod of a
buffer is fixed, an outer member 14 attached to a vehicle while
surrounding an outer circumference of the inner member, and
an elastomer 16 interposed between both members to dampen
vibration, wherein an attachment piece 28 of an outer fitting
14 and an attachment plate 2 of the vehicle body are curved
in the form of a sphere to raise rigidity and improve vehicle
running stability. Besides, a non-fastening surface portion
36 is provided by being lowered via a different level portion
34 around a bolt fastening surface portion 30 of the attachment
piece 28, preventing rubber burr from being produced on the
fastening surface. Furthermore, by the use of a caulking nut 52
stuck to the underside of the attachment piece 28, the weight
of the products can be reduced, and cost reduction is
accomplished by laborsaving during operations.

Abstract: In the configuration of the radio communication base station system which
connects the macro radio/optical sending-receiving unit 400 which communicates
by radio with the mobile station 300 which exists in the macro sector zone 100 and
the micro radio/optical sending-receiving unit 500 which communicates by radio
with the mobile station which exists in the micro sector zone 200 to the base
station 700 which is used commonly using the optical fiber network 600, it is
possible to reduce the interference between the macro sector zone and the micro
sector zone, which occurs in applying the CDMA method using the same frequency
band to a cell configuration in which the macro sector zone 100 and the micro
sector zone 200 coexist, and increase the capacity of the base station.

Abstract: Maximum security hydropneumatic float for tanks based on the fact
that its closure arises on the inside in the direction of the pressure by
opening and closing the water passage by means of some disks housed
between one another that are crossed by the axle (29) and it moves
them along the guides (1) when they open and close, with it being
characterised by the fact that said disks cut off from lesser to greater
the water passage by only using the force of the first time through the
dead spaces on the axle run (27) and (28) which allows the ballcock
and its lever to be eliminated and to be able to build it completely out
of plastic, a hub (45) supplies itself with water, when the water in the
tank (68) drops, the hub falls thereby opening the disks and when the
level drops it reaches the air chamber (57) lifting the hub until
releasing the disks which then return to their seatings thereby ensuring
the closure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an image
processing apparatus, and to realize improved lossless
compression of images more efficiently. A first predictor
11 generates a prediction signal P out of peripheral
pixel values supplied from a pixel sequence generator 2.
A second predictor 12 generates a prediction signal Q out
of the peripheral pixel values supplied from the pixel
sequence generator 2. An adder 4 subtracts the prediction
signal P from the current pixel value to thereby
calculate a prediction error signal M. When the
prediction signal Q is greater than the prediction signal
P, an inverter 14 inverts the polarity of the prediction
error signal M to consequently generate a prediction
error signal N. And an entropy encoder 5 allocates a code
word in accordance with the prediction error signal N
generated by the inverter 14.

Abstract: Digital signals (D) are transmitted on a bus (P) at given instants (..., t-1, t, ...) selectively in a non-encoded format (D(t)) and an encoded format (NOT(D(t))) so as to minimize the switching activity (SA) on the bus. Given the same value of switching activity (12, 13), the decision whether to transmit the signals in non-encoded format or in encoded format is taken according to the choice of maintaining constant, without transitions, the value of the additional signal (INV), which signals that encoding of the signals transmitted each time has taken place or has been omitted.
