Patent EP-0332884-B1 (EP)
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 1989-02-18
Granted: 1992-04-29
Abstract: In a housing (10) is situated an elastomeric valve body (14) which subdivides the channel (13) passing through the housing. The slitted valve body (14) is pressed into the closing position by a spring (39) of resilient metal material. In the event of fatigue occurring in the material of the valve body (14), the spring ensures that the valve will also adopt its closing position when it has been held in the open state for an extended period by a steel cannula passed through the valve body (14).

Abstract: A fingertip pulse wave sensor includes a fingertip supporting base (10) having either a nail supporting surface (21) or a fingertip cushion supporting surface (11), and a slider (20) having the other of the nail supporting surface and the fingertip cushion supporting surface. The slider (20) is guided on the fingertip supporting base (10) in such a manner as to be slidable in the direction in which it is moved away from or toward the fingertip supporting base (10). The slider (20) is urged in the direction in which it is moved toward the fingertip supporting base (10) by an elastic body (25) which is capable of applying a substantially fixed amount of pressure with respect to the variations in the slide stroke in the direction in which the slider (20) is moved away from the fingertip supporting base (10) which occur when different fingertips are set. The fingertip pulse wave sensor also includes a light-emitting element (19) disposed in one of the nail supporting surfaces and the fingertip cushion supporting surface, and a light-receiving element (29) disposed on the other of the nail supporting surface and the fingertip cushion supporting surface.

Abstract: The invention relates to the bending and quenching of glass sheets in a plant with a forming bed curved in the direction of travel of the glass. 
<??>It proposes a process in which the glass sheets at the end of the plant are picked up by a tilting device to be transferred onto a substantially horizontal conveyor, this tilting device, after having deposited a glass sheet, being brought into a position for receiving a new glass sheet either without tilting or by rotation through an angle smaller than the angle through which it must turn to permit the transfer of a glass sheet onto the substantially horizontal conveyor by tilting. 
<??>The invention also proposes a tilting device which has a number of positions for receiving glass sheets and optionally blowing means for quenching the glass. 
<??>The invention enables the plant efficiency to be improved by permitting the glass sheets to travel virtually without any interval between them.

Abstract: A plastic closure for a container, such as a bottle having an externally threaded neck, has a top wall, an internally threaded sidewall, and a seal comprising outer and inner concentric sealing members that extend downwardly from an inner surface of the top wall. The outer sealing member extends downwardly farther than the inner sealing member and is substantially thicker than the inner sealing member. The outer sealing member is disposed to engage an outer corner of the rim of the neck of the bottle when the closure is threaded onto the bottle, and the inner sealing member is disposed to engage the top of the rim after engagement of the corner with the outer sealing member. The outer sealing member deflects outward slightly, and the inner sealing member deflects upwardly and inwardly. Movement of the top wall of the closure toward the rim is limited by a shoulder between the sealing members, so that when the closure is fully threaded onto the bottle, the inner sealing member is spaced from the inner surface of the top wall of the closure.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for estimating frequency offset. 
<??>The apparatus for estimating frequency offset between the carrier wave of a reception signal (R) and a local signal (L), this reception signal having been the subject of a modulation with several phase states and therefore exhibiting a phase comprising a transmission phase shift, a modulation phase shift and a synchronisation phase shift, comprises a demodulation unit for producing samples (E) of the reception signal for which the transmission phase shift is suppressed. It moreover comprises means (12, 13) for detecting the modulation phase shift of these samples so as to suppress it. It also comprises means (16) for producing the average phase of a series of samples, the frequency offset then being estimated by taking the difference of the average phase of two series of samples, referred to the period separating the middle of these series. 
<??>It finds an advantageous application in the area of digital cellular radiocommunication systems.

Abstract: An evaporation heat exchanger, especially for removing heat from a spacecraft, has a housing formed by an inner cylinder and an outer cylinder which enclose a ring gap between the cylinders. A medium to be evaporated is injected into an evaporation chamber inside the inner cylinder. A cooling liquid is passed through the ring gap. Flow influencing elements are arranged in the ring gap for enhancing the heat transfer onto the inner surface of the inner cylinder for the evaporation. The flow control elements cause an eddy current of the cooling liquid. Additionally, these elements are shaped with interlocking projections and recesses to provide a mechanical coupling between the inner and outer cylinders. This coupling is capable of taking up radially extending forces in a force-locking manner, thereby preventing the bulging of the cylinders, even if the pressure in the ring gap should increase.
