Abstract: L'invention concerne une plaque de support pour une tête d'impression à jet d'encre, pourvue de convertisseurs électrothermiques possédant chacun une résistance servant à produire de la chaleur et une paire de câblages reliés électriquement à la résistance. Ladite plaque est constituée d'une substance polycristalline telle que du silicium polycristallin. L'utilisation d'une telle plaque de support permet de fabriquer, avec un prix de revient peu élevé, une tête d'impression pouvant imprimer des images d'une haute qualité et qui ne subit ni une torsion ni un cintrage. Une telle tête d'impression permet la fabrication d'un appareil d'impression pouvant imprimer des images d'une haute qualité à une vitesse élevée. Selon un procédé de fabrication de ladite plaque de support polycristalline, la surface de celle-ci reste plate bien qu'elle soit oxydée par chauffage.

Abstract: Dispositif à semi-conducteurs de formation d'image dans lequel les signaux d'image provenant d'un capteur CCD sont échantillonnés en fonction d'impulsions d'échantillonnage dans un circuit d'échantillonnage, les signaux d'image échantillonnés sont envoyés à un circuit convertisseur A/N via un circuit de traitement de signaux analogiques qui introduit un retard, et sont convertis en signaux d'image numériques en synchronisme avec les impulsions d'échantillonnage pour la conversion A/N. Dans ce dispositif, un signal de test qui change en alternance entre un niveau blanc et un niveau noir est produit pendant une période de suppression de lignes ou une période de suppression de trames des signaux d'image provenant du capteur CCD, le signal de test est échantillonné dans le circuit d'échantillonnage et converti en signal de test numérique par un circuit convertisseur A/N, une valeur intégrée de valeurs absolues de différences des signaux de test numériques consécutifs est déterminée, et la phase des impulsions d'échantillonnage pour la conversion A/N est ajustée par un circuit de réglage automatique de phase, de sorte que la valeur intégrée atteigne un maximum. Cet agencement permet d'ajuster aisément et correctement la phase des impulsions d'échantillonnnage pour la conversion A/N afin d'injecter les signaux d'image provenant du capteur CCD dans l'unité de conversion A/N à un instant optimal.

Date May 26, 1994A device (10) for orientating a load to be suspended and moved by a crane includes a flywheel (11) mounted for rotation in a housing (14). A turntable (17) is pivotally connected to the housing (14) and is drivable relative to the housing using a driven worm gear (23) meshing with an annular set of teeth (22) on the turntable (17). The turntable has an axle (18) to which loads can be attached. When the flywheel (11) is spinning at high speed, it resists movement out of its plane of rotation so as to stabilize the cable in winds, etc. The flywheel (11) also allows the worm gear to react against it so as to turn the load relative to the flywheel (11). Maneuvering of the load is therefore made easier.

Abstract: A system and method for inserting a gastrostomy catheter through a passageway formed through the abdominal and stomach walls of a patient. The gastrostomy catheter is mounted onto a dilatation catheter with a dilatation member such as an inelastic balloon on the distal extremity thereof. An introducer needle is first advanced through the walls of the patient's abdomen and stomach into the interior of the stomach and then a guidewire is advanced through the inner lumen of the needle into the stomach interior. The gastrostomy catheter-dilatation catheter assembly is advanced over the guidewire until the balloon on the dilatation catheter is in proper position crossing both the abdominal and gastric walls. Upon inflation of the balloon on the dilatation catheter, the passageway is expanded enough so that the gastrostomy catheter can be advanced therethrough to dispose the distal end of the gastrostomy catheter within the interior of the stomach. The balloon on the distal end of the gastrostomy catheter is inflated so as to form an internal retention member and the catheter withdrawn in order to urge the inflated balloon against the stomach wall. Preferably, the gastrostomy catheter has an external retention ring on the shaft thereof which is slid against the exterior of the patient's abdomen to seal the passageway through the abdominal wall.

Abstract: Apparatus for forming a chain of sausage links is described in which the formed links are less likely to unwind. The apparatus includes a conveyor (10) for moving a tubular food casing (18) filled with a food emulsion around an axis (12), the conveyor having a plurality of crimping (14a-h) and twisting (15a-h) means for forming a continuous adjacent links. The conveyor (10) moves the links through a semicircular path past station (A-I) where twisting and crimping operations are performed. The links so formed have a first set twisted in one direction about the tubular food casing axis and a second set of adjacent links twisted in the opposite direction. The twisted links are then fed to apparatus (90) for arranging the twisted sets of links in vertical hanging loops (91) using a screw thread (104) of variable decreasing pitch with clamps (96) for clamping between the oppositely twisted sets of links so that as the twisted links move along the screw thread (104), oppositely twisted sets of links form hanging loops which have little tendency to unwind.
