Patent EP-0910998-A2 (EP)
Inventor: CORSO PHILIP P JR
IPC: A61F2/06
Filed: 1998-10-20
Abstract: An endoprosthesis is provided which presents an
endoprosthesis body of a plurality of full-circle helical
sections exhibiting a repeating pattern of undulations
that follow a generally helical axis. Adjacent full-circle
windings each have at least one bridging junction
joining together apex-like portions of adjacent full-circle
sections. In a preferred arrangement, a plurality
of these bridging junctions define a substantially in-line
helical pattern of bridging junctions along the
endoprosthesis or stent. One, two, three or more of these
substantially in-line helical patterns can be provided.
Also provided is a procedure by which the endoprosthesis
or stent is implanted by deployment with a suitable
device, the deployment expanding the pattern of
undulations in a uniform manner to provide an especially
consistent support surface throughout the endoprosthesis.

Abstract: An emergency lighting system capable of performing self-testing
is disclosed. The system comprises a main power
supply and a plurality of lighting units each having
mains failure circuitry to monitor the main supply and to
connect the lighting unit for operation to an auxiliary
power supply in the event of failure of the main power
supply. Each lighting unit further includes a testing
circuit operative, on receipt of a command, to assess the
condition of operational readiness of the lighting unit.
The system has a control unit. A signal line connects the
control to the testing circuit of one or more of the
lighting units. In operation, the control unit applies
signals to the signal line and detects signals which have
been applied to the signal line by a testing circuit.
Each one of the testing circuits is identified as from
the others by an address. On detection of a signal
indicating its address on the signal line, each testing
circuit applies to the signal line a signal indicative of
the operational readiness of the associated lighting
unit.

Abstract: Zur Detektion eines Elements in einer Probe wird mit einem Transmissionselektronenmikroskop zunächst ein erstes Bild der Intensitäten I1p der Probe bei einem Energieverlust vor der Elementkante gemessen und dann ein zweites Bild der Intensitäten I2'p der Probe bei einem Energieverlust im Bereich der Elementkante. Um den Untergrund zu ermitteln, wird an einer Vergleichsprobe, die das Element nicht enthält, für verschiedene Punkte die Intensität I1 bei einem Energieverlust vor der Elementkante ermittelt und anschließend die Intensität I2 bei einem Energieverlust im Bereich der Elementkante. Aus diesen Werten wird eine Näherungsfunktion I2 (I1) berechnet, so daß ein Bild der reinen elementspezifischen Intensitäten IE berechnet werden kann, in dem für jeden Punkt des ersten Bildes mit der Intensität I1p mit der Näherungsfunktion die entsprechende Intensität I2p berechnet wird und für den entsprechenden Punkt des zweites Bildes die Differenz aus gemessener Intensität I2'p und berechneter Intensität I2p als elementspezifische Intensität IE ermittelt wird.

Abstract: The invention relates to techniques for manufacturing
columnar-grained polycrystalline sheets which have particular
utility as substrates or wafers for solar cells. The sheet is made
by applying granular silicon to a setter material which supports
the granular material. The setter material and granular silicon
are subjected to a thermal profile all of which promote columnar
growth by melting the silicon from the top downwardly. The thermal
profile sequentially creates a melt region at the top of the
granular silicon and then a growth region where both liquid and a
growing polycrystalline sheet layer coexist. An annealing region
is created where the temperature of the grown polycrystalline
silicon sheet layer is controllably reduced to effect stress
relief.

dimensional precision such as roundness or the like and
product yield can be improved, and aluminum alloy
photosensitive drum substrates prepared thereby. 
     A metallic tube, both ends of which are supported, is

constant pressure against the external surface of the
metallic tube from opposite directions or radial
directions having the rotation axis as tile center of

sandwich the grindstones along a circular direction to
perform electrolytic integrated polishing by supplying
electrolyte to the external surface of the metallic tube.
High-precision mirror processing of the external surface
of the metallic tube can be performed by integrating
abrasion effect for eliminating passivation coating
formed on the external surface of the metallic tube by
the grindstones and intensive electrolytic elution by the
electrolyte.

hydrophobic group into the inner hydrophilic surface by chemical modification. A
method of producing the polymer packing material suitable for liquid chromatography
includes the step of polymerizing glycerol dimethacrylate as a crosslinking agent and 2-ethylhexl
methacrylate as a monomer according to a two-step swelling polymerization
process. Alternatively, the producing method includes the step of crosslinking and
polymerizing only glycerol dimethacrylate to form a polymer, and introducing the
hydrophobic group into the polymer by chemical modification.

Abstract: A printer wherein test patterns for each optical

registration error between the optical scanning devices
can be formed on a photoreceptor (14). The printer
includes a pattern position detection means (170) for
detecting the positions of the test patterns formed from
fixed positions through a developing process, and a color
registration correction means (160) for calculating a
color registration error amount from the position
information of the test patterns provided by the pattern
position detection means, and for calculating color
registration correction data from the calculated error
amount and outputting the calculated correction data to an
engine controller (140). In color registration error
correction using the printer, the positions of
electrostatic latent images, corresponding to test
patterns formed on a photoreceptor belt by each of optical
scanning devices (e.g. yellow, magenta and cyan), are
detected by developing the electrostatic latent images
with a single color (e.g. black). Therefore, a structure
for measuring error amounts from the test patterns is
simple, and the accuracy of measurement can be improved.
