Abstract: L'invention concerne un chariot pour médicaments qui comprend un boîtier fixé sur quatre montants aux coins du boîtier, avec un plan de travail généralement horizontal sur le haut du boîtier et une pluralité de tiroirs à l'intérieur du boîtier sous le plan de travail, comprenant des compartiments pour conserver des médicaments et des graphiques de données relatifs aux médicaments à distribuer à un certain nombre de patients. Le boîtier est fixé sur une base comprenant une pluralité de roues porteuses qu'un opérateur fait rouler sur le sol pour administrer des médicaments à une série de patients dans différents emplacements. Un mécanisme élévateur pour soulever le boîtier par rapport à la base est défini par quatre tiges filetées, chacune se déployant généralement vers le haut entre la base et le boîtier; une extrémité inférieure de chaque tige est attachée à la base, alors qu'une extrémité supérieure s'étend dans un montant respectif. Un écrou sur chaque tige est relié au boîtier, de sorte que la rotation des tiges entraîne un mouvement axial de l'écrou le long de la tige et soulève le boîtier par rapport à la base. Les tiges sont entraînées par une manivelle sur le dessus d'une tige et un assemblage d'entraînement par chaîne de pignons reliant les tiges à la base.

Abstract: In a membrane electrode assembly 1 of a fuel cell, the porosity of a hydrogen electrode-side catalyst layer 11a is made to be lower than that of an air electrode-side catalyst layer 11b Specifically, the weight ratio of ion-exchange resin to carbon carriers of the hydrogen electrode-side catalyst layer is made to be larger than such ratio of the air electrode-side catalyst layer, the hydrogen electrode-side catalyst layer is allowed to contain an additive having a certain particle diameter or less, or the hydrogen electrode-side catalyst layer is formed by spraying a catalyst ink and the air electrode-side catalyst layer is formed by a transfer method. According to the present invention, the amount of hydrogen that permeates from the hydrogen electrode-side catalyst layer to the air electrode-side catalyst layer via an electrolyte membrane is reduced to suppress a direct hydrogen combustion reaction in the air electrode-side catalyst layer, thereby improving the fuel cell durability.

Abstract: Systems and methods for establishing and operating data sessions between mobile subscriber units and packet data servers on a wireless communication network are presented. Some aspects described herein are directed to preventing the loss of an initial configuration request signal (e.g. under the LCP protocol) from a packet data server to a mobile subscriber prior to successful establishment of a radio air link to the mobile subscriber. Other aspects are directed to detecting the presence or absence of a radio air link to the mobile subscriber as a determinant of whether the packet data server is to send a configuration request signal to the mobile subscriber, or whether the packet data server should withhold the request signal until the air link is established. Some or all aspects presented are suitable for use in 3G or CDMA-2000 systems using the A10/A11 communication control protocol and the PPP  data communication protocol.

Title: Automatic sample testing machine
Inventor: FANNING MARK JOSEPH
IPC: G01N33/53
Filed: 1997-02-12
Granted: 2012-04-10
Abstract: An automatic sample testing machine for testing samples stored in test cards. The machine has a test sample positioning system for moving a tray containing a plurality of test sample cards and fluid receptacles among various stations in the machine. The machine has a diluting station for adding a predetermined quantity of diluent to the receptacles as needed. A pipetting station transfers fluid from one receptacle to another. A vacuum station is provided having a vacuum chamber moveable relative to the tray between upper and lower positions. The chamber cooperates with the tray to make a sealing engagement with the top surface of the tray when it is lowered to the lower position. A vacuum generator supplies vacuum to the chamber. When the vacuum is released from the chamber, the fluid samples are loaded into the cards from the receptacles. The test sample positioning system moves the tray to a cutting and sealing station and then to an incubation station and loads the cards one at a time into a carousel within the incubation station. A test card transport station transports the test cards from the incubation station to an optical reading station, where optical measurements (e.g., transmittance and/or fluorescence optical testing) is conducted on the wells of the card. When the card has been read, it is either moved back to the incubation station for additional incubation and reading or transferred to a stacking card disposal system when the reading is complete.

Abstract: Selon l'état de la technique, une augmentation de la fréquence d'horloge pour des circuits intégrés cadencés à haute fréquence, notamment des microprocesseurs, se heurte à des limites physiques qui sont actuellement d'environ 3 GHz, car les variations de courant dynamiques ne peuvent pas être éliminées de manière suffisante par régulation. Aussi la nouvelle alimentation électronique selon l'invention doit-elle permettre d'accéder à la gamme des fréquences GHz à deux chiffres. Pour permettre une élimination rapide des variations de courant dynamiques, la compensation de courant (10) est placée à proximité immédiate du circuit intégré (11) ou y est incorporée. Un amplificateur de régulation (8) influe par l'intermédiaire d'un optocoupleur (9) sur un modulateur de durée d'impulsion (2) qui régule un convertisseur de tension symétrique (3, 4) à redressement synchrone (5). L'alimentation selon l'invention est tout particulièrement destinée à de futurs microprocesseurs à haute puissance dont la conception a été retardée par le problème d'alimentation évoqué.
