Abstract: A method of sealing a medical container such as a vial with a polymeric closure, wherein the polymeric enclosure includes a tubular collar portion and an integral radial portion, which includes disposing the tubular collar portion over the radial rim portion of the container to surround the reduced diameter neck portion and radially deforming the tubular collar portion adjacent its free end into the reduced diameter neck portion and against the adjacent radial rim portion and, wherein the polymer selected for the closure is sufficiently malleable to permit radial deformation, yet sufficiently rigid to retain its shape following deformation and sufficiently resistant to creep to maintain a seal between the plastic closure and the container following radial deformation. In the preferred embodiment of the method, the crimping tool or tools include an inclined surface having a gradually decreasing angle of inclination, which is driven against the tubular collar portion adjacent the free end and the container and vial assembly and crimping tool are relatively rotated. In the most preferred embodiment of the method of this invention, the crimping tool includes an inclined surface or surfaces, which may be separate surfaces or a continuously inclined surface, to gradually and progressively deform the tubular collar portion into the reduced diameter neck portion and against the adjacent radial rim portion in a cold forming process.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method and device for implementing dynamic power control in an electronic system implemented on an integrated circuit, which electronic system comprises at least one or several hardware units (201, 202, 203), a hardware based power control logic (204) substantially implemented with logic circuits, as well as a programmable power control mode register (208) containing information about powered-down modes defined for said one or more hardware units. According to the invention, to transfer a single hardware unit (201, 202, 203) from the powered-down mode to the operational mode, said hardware unit transmits to the power control logic (204) a first level sensitive status signal (201a, 202a, 203a) for transferring said hardware unit from the powered-down mode to the wake up mode, and further a second level sensitive status signal (201b, 202b, 203b) for transferring said hardware unit from the wake up mode to the actual operating mode. Said wake up mode is characterized in that the transfer of said hardware unit (201, 202, 203) from the wake up mode to the actual operational mode is now effected with a known, preferably short delay, and that the power consumption in the wake up mode is lower than in the actual operational mode. The invention makes it possible to achieve aggressive power savings. <IMAGE>

Because the common electrode formed on the lowest piezoelectric sheet is made large enough to include the projected contours in the horizontal plane of the drive electrodes together with their lead-out parts, the common electrode lies between the cavity plate and the drive electrodes nearest to the cavity plate (14).
