Patent EP-1195133-A3 (EP)
Inventor: FRIEDMAN BRUCE
IPC: A61B5/021
Filed: 2001-02-06
Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved apparatus and method for
measuring blood pressure. Both include a first sensor for detecting an
instantaneous pulse rate, an inflatable cuff (101), and a second
sensor (104) to monitor the pressure within the cuff. The cuff
sensor (104) is adapted to detect oscillometric complexes associated with
a patient's pulse. Both the apparatus and the method provide for
detecting arrhythmia from the patient's instantaneous pulse rate. A
characteristic of the oscillometric complexes is measured, and match
determination means provided for determining whether at least two
adjacent oscillometric complexes are equivalent. A first set matching
criteria are used under normal conditions. A second set of matching
criteria are used when arrhythmia are detected. A controller (124) is
provided for controlling the pressure within the cuff. At the outset of a
blood pressure measurement the cuff is inflated to a pressure greater than
the patient's systolic pressure. In response to a determination that two
adjacent oscillometric complexes are equivalent the control means reduces
the cuff pressure by a fixed increment and the match determination means
continues to determine whether adjacent complexes are equivalent. A
blood pressure determination means is provided responsive to the control
means and the measuring means. The blood pressure determination
means compares the measured characteristic of the oscillometric
complexes from various cuff pressures and determines the cuff pressure at
which the measured characteristic reaches a limit. This cuff pressure
corresponds to the patient's mean arterial pressure.

Abstract: A magnetic memory device capable of preventing
complication of the structure of an amplifier (sense
amplifier) and enabling high-speed reading is provided. In
this magnetic memory device, a memory cell is formed by a
pair of first and second storage elements (4a, 4b)
exhibiting a ferromagnetic tunnel effect and a pair of
first and second transistors (5a, 5b) while an amplifier
(53) detects potential difference between a bit line (BL)
and an inverted bit line (/BL) connected to the pair of
first and second storage elements. Thus, data can be
readily read. Further, the value of a small current
flowing to the bit line may not be detected dissimilarly
to a case of forming the memory cell by a storage element
exhibiting a ferromagnetic tunnel effect and a transistor.
Consequently, the structure of the amplifier is not
complicated. Further, no amplifier having a complicated
structure may be employed, whereby high-speed reading is
enabled.

Inventor: MASATOSHI SUZUKI
IPC: F02B61/02
Filed: 2002-01-31
Abstract: The invention increases a thermal efficiency by increasing
the degree of constant volume of a fuel-air mixture at
the time of combustion in an internal combustion engine.
To achieve this, in an internal combustion engine in which
a piston 16 slidably fitted in a cylinder 15 is connected
to a crankshaft 19 via a connecting rod 21, a cylinder
head 12 in which a combustion chamber 22 is defined is
disposed between the piston 16 and the crankshaft 19. As
compared with a prior art internal combustion engine in
which a combustion chamber is disposed opposite to a
crankshaft with a piston put therebetween, a ratio of an
increased amount of the volume of the combustion chamber
22 to an increased amount of a crank angle of the piston
16 from the top dead center can be suppressed at a small
value. As a result, it is possible to increase the degree
of constant volume of a fuel-air mixture at the time of
combustion and hence to increase a thermal efficiency of
the internal combustion engine. Also, since a tensile
load is applied to a connecting rod 21 in an expansion
stroke, it is possible to lower a strength of the
connecting rod 21 and hence to reduce the weight thereof
as compared with the prior art internal combustion engine
in which a compressive load is applied to a connecting
rod.

Specifically, the embossing roll according to the present invention can be produced
using standard laser engraving techniques that have heretofore been applied to
rubbers. Rubber rolls, while produced significantly faster than engraved steel rolls,
have the disadvantage of poor life span due to wear. The epoxy based resin rolls of the
