Patent EP-0872220-A1 (EP)
Inventor: BLEAM JEFFREY C
IPC: A61M25/00
Filed: 1998-04-21
Abstract: An apparatus (10) and method for deploying one or more stents (12)
within a body lumen (72) comprises a substantially tubular sheath (28) configured for
slidable movement over a catheter shaft (15) and configured to receive a stent (12) over
a flexible, expandable distal portion (34) of the sheath. The sheath (28) may comprise
a part of a stent deployment system including a dilatation catheter (such as a balloon
catheter (14)), and one or more substantially tubular stents (12) positioned in their
delivery configurations over the expandable distal portion (34) of the sheath. The sheath
(28) preferably has a proximal portion (36) that is configured so that a user may advance
the sheath over the catheter (14) by maneuvering the sheath proximal end (32). The
substantially tubular stent (12) preferably is a radially expandable stent having a delivery
configuration and a deployed configuration. 
     When the apparatus (10) is introduced into a body lumen (72), the sheath
(28) is positioned on the catheter shaft (15) such that the sheath distal portion (34)
bearing the stent (12) is proximal of the catheter expandable member (22) ( e.g. ,
balloon). Thus, the catheter expandable member (22) may be used to dilate the body
lumen (72) without deploying the stent (12). After dilatation is completed, the sheath
(28) is advanced until the stent (12) is positioned around the expandable member (22)
which is then expanded, thereby radially expanding and deploying the stent or stents.

monoxide in the presence of a catalyst package and an added diluent
free from active hydrogen atoms. The preferred catalyst packages comprise
a Group VIIIB metal or salt thereof, an inorganic cocatalyst, and
organic cocatalysts and a bromide or chloride source. The amount of
added diluent is an effective amount to improve selectivity to diaryl
carbonate. Preferred diluents are diphenyl carbonate and
N-methylpyrrolidone.

Abstract: An improved antenna system (10) provides significant cost reduction and
improves the modularity of the antenna system by combining the power supply lines
and the control lines on a single line (12). Control circuitry (22) is responsive to a
power supply signal which acts as the power supply for the antenna system to control
the operation of the antenna system. In certain embodiments, the improved antenna
system is connected to a single line (12) which carries communication signals and the
power supply signal. As such, the antenna system combines the communication lines,
the power supply lines and control lines to provide a modular antenna system at a
reduced cost. In controlling the antenna system, the control circuitry (22) can control
the operation of signal circuitry, (17) which handles the communication signals, in
response to the control information provided by the power supply signal. The control
circuitry can control other features of the antenna system, such as antenna diversity
circuitry (20), in response to the power supply signal. The control information can be
provided by the power supply signal in a variety of forms, such as power supply bias
voltage levels and/or interruptions in the power supply signal. The control circuitry
responds to the control information to control the operation of the antenna system in a
desired manner.

Abstract: The engine has a two-compressor gas generator with low- and high-pressure compressors (1,8) and at least one propeller (12). Each compressor has a compressor with a turbine (10,11) to drive it, and the propeller has variable pitch and is driven through a reduction gear assembly (13). The propeller can be situated in front of the turbine system and before the gas generator or between the high- and low-pressure compressors and round the reduction gear assembly, which can be a planetary system. In other variants the propeller can be driven jointly by the high- and low- pressure gas generator compressors, or it can be in the form of two contrarotating propellers driven by the high- and low-pressure gas generator compressors respectively.

Abstract: The lamp fixing has a insert (10) which is fixed to the end of a tube (11) that forms the body of the fixing. A rotating winged lock (12) is fitted over the end if the insert, and can rotate but cannot move in translation relative to the insert. The winged lock is passed through a slot in the body work of the vehicle, then rotated a quarter turn so the wings overlap the edge of the slot.

Filed: 1998-06-17
Abstract: The method of detecting the precession of a drilling element rotating in a shaft involves acquiring at least one measure from measuring devices placed near the surface, representing the vibration of the element in the shaft. This measurement is then automatically treated to produce a mean location and a significant ray in the spectrum of this measurement, the location being checked at intervals of less than 10 seconds. A precession criterion is determined from the characteristics of this ray, and an alarm is set off if the criterion reaches a predetermined threshold value. Also claimed is a system for detecting the precession of a drilling element using the above method.

Title: Procede de cotation parametrique s'articulant autour d'un systeme de reference et dispositif afferent
Inventor: JACKSON GEOFF
IPC: G06F17/50
Filed: 1998-01-16
Abstract: Ce système de dessin assisté par ordinateur (DAO) permet à un dessinateur d'entrer facilement des entités de cote décrivant les cotes physiques d'un objet dans un dessin ou un modèle assisté par ordinateur. Les entités de cote définissent des cotes linéaires, angulaires ou radiales et, pour chaque entité, l'utilisateur définit une origine de référence en sus de l'information de cote normale. La valeur de chaque entité définie peut être une constante simple, un paramètre ou une expression de plusieurs constantes et paramètres. Du fait de l'ajout de l'origine de référence, un réseau très complexe d'entités de cotes connexes peut être simplement défini et facilement modifié. Il est procédé à un nouveau calcul des entités de cote au moyen d'un moteur de cotation paramétrique transformant des groupes d'entités provenant de l'espace global du dessin ou modèle DAO général en espace local. Etant dans cet espace local, le moteur de cotation paramétrique calcule à nouveau les données de coordonnées des entités.

Abstract: Il est possible de régénérer un catalyseur réversiblement désactivé utilisé pour la synthèse de boues d'hydrocarbures en faisant passer successivement les boues par au moins deux étages de régénération extérieurs au réacteur des boues dont chacun comporte une zone de régénération suivie d'une zone d'évacuation des effluents gazeux. On utilise à cet effet une colonne montante extérieure au réacteur où passent les boues et où elles entrent en contact avec un gaz de régénération du catalyseur qui régénère en partie les particules de catalyseur et forme un effluent gazeux régénérateur. Le mélange de gaz et de boues passe ensuite dans une cuve où le gaz est séparé des boues. Le gaz régénérateur est insufflé dans les boues de la cuve pour poursuivre la régénération du catalyseur. Une colonne descendante extrait le gaz des boues de la cuve avant de le renvoyer dans le réacteur, le gaz régénérateur sert également de gaz ascenseur dans la colonne montante.
