Title: Sensor system
Filed: 2006-09-08
Abstract: A network comprising a plurality of nodes that store data of their location within a frame of reference together with data of the position of proximate adjacent nodes. The nodes can use the data of their location and of proximate nodes to enable easy self-configuration and distributed processing of spatially related queries, this is particularly suited to spatially distributed sensor systems. The network is enabled by a method of routing data between nodes. The method comprises receiving a data packet including a header comprising data of the final spatial destination of the data packet at a node; calculating the direction of the final spatial destination from the node; determining which of the at least two adjacent nodes is closest to the direction of the spatial destination; and forwarding the packet to the one of the at least two adjacent nodes that is determined to be the closest to the direction of the final spatial destination. This spatial routing enables data to be efficiently routed through the network. Methods of initialising the network and using the nodes to sense and report events are also disclosed.

Title: Stent with radiopaque marker
IPC: A61F2/90
Filed: 2007-02-21
Abstract: The invention concerns a method of providing a stent with a radiopaque marker comprising the steps of: i) providing in the stent a radiopaque marker carrier portion; ii) sleeving the carrier portion with radiopaque material, with an insulating surface between the carrier and the marker material, and iii) plastically deforming material within the sleeve of radiopaque material, to secure the sleeve on the carrier portion. The invention further concerns a stent with a radiopaque marker, the stent exhibiting a generally annular form with luminal and abluminal major surfaces, the marker also exhibiting opposed major luminal and abluminal surfaces characterized in that i) the marker envelops a carrier portion of the stent and is electrically insulated from it; ii) portions of the material of the marker which exhibit evidence of plastic deformation secure the marker on the carrier portion.

Title: Double talk detection method based on spectral acoustic properties
Filed: 2007-09-14
Abstract: A method of detecting double talk condition in hands free communication devices is disclosed. In general, the method in accordance with the teachings of this invention detects double talk conditions based on inherent frequency response differences between the transducers used and acoustical effect on the spectrum of the returned echo signal. An input signal from a far-end talker and an input signal from the output from an echo canceller are received by the detector. K spectral subbands are created for each input signal. From this K subbands q subbands are selected based on inherent frequency differences between the far-end transducer and a near-end transducer. The spectral echo residual power is estimated at each subband. The estimated spectral echo power and the output signal from the echo canceller for a selected subband are compared to a predetermined threshold. Based on this comparison, it is determined whether double talk conditions exist based on the comparison.

Patent GB-8312069-D0 (GB)
Title: Peristaltic pumps
IPC: A61M5/14
Filed: 1983-05-03
Abstract: Control apparatus for a stepping motor driving a peristaltic pump comprises a presettable downcounter for supplying drive pulses to the stepping motor at different repetition rates so as to regulate the speed of rotation of the motor, processing means for controlling the downcounter so that the motor is normally operated to drive the pump at a predetermined pumping rate, and a sensor for detecting indexing marks at spaced positions about the pump head, the processing means being responsive to the sensor detecting the index marks to alter the count in the downcounter so as to increase the motor speed for a predetermined number of motor steps upon detection of each index mark. After the predetermined number of steps at increased speed, the processing means resets the downcounter to its normal setting, so that the motor operates at the required pumping rate for a further predetermined number of motor steps and until detection of the next successive index mark of the head. Hence, the drive motor rotates or skips more rapidly during alternate periods corresponding to dwell periods of the peristaltic pump when reduced or no fluid flow would normally occur and, consequently, the pump delivers fluid at a more constant flow rate.

Abstract: In a friction stay for a door or window comprising a base 10 for connection to a frame and an arm 13 for connection to the leaf with a linkage 14, 16 controlling the movement of the arm relative to the base so that the arm moves in a plane generally parallel to the base between the closed position in which the arm overlies the base and open positions in which the arm is to one side of and angled relative to the base, a reinforcing member 28 is provided extending along the arm 13 with the connection 23 between the shorter link 16 and the arm also engaging the reinforcing member and a fixing hole 27 extending through the arm 13 and the member 28 at a position spaced from the connection. If the arm is forced away from the base during an attempt to force the leaf out of the frame, the strength of the stay to resist such a force is increased by the reinforcing member. Preferably the reinforcing member 28 comprises a metal or plastics plate and the connection 23 comprises a rivet. This arrangement is particularly useful where the arm is to fit into a "eurogroove" on a leaf.

Title: Tighting sleeve with friction reducing coating
Inventor: SCHIEFER ERWIN
IPC: F16B1/00
Filed: 1992-05-15
Abstract: On the contact surfaces formed by the inner contour of the expanding sleeve (7) and the outer contour of the expansion of the shank (2), an expanding dowel has a friction-reducing coating (10). Said coating (10) produces a friction level between the expanding sleeve (7) and the expansion (3) of the shank (2) which is less than the friction level between the expanding sleeve (7) and the wall of the drilled hole. The friction difference thus produced causes a reliable subsequent expansion behaviour of the expanding dowel in the cracked tension zone. In addition to the coating (10), projections (11, 12) are arranged on the outside of the expanding sleeve (7), which projections (11, 12) are located one behind the other and maintain the contact with the wall of the drilled hole in the event of relatively large displacements of the expanding dowel, primarily in the cracked tension zone.
