Title: Gastroplasty ring that can be loosened
Inventor: BENCHETRIT SALOMON
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 2000-12-21
Abstract: The gastroplasty ring consists of a supple strip (1) with its two ends (5) held together by a coupling and forming an annular compression chamber of variable volume connected to a regulator (6). The coupling comprises male (11) and female (10) components which are held together by expanding the male component inside the female one using a fluid such as air or a liquid. The coupling components, in the form of a female eyelet and a male inflatable catheter with a zone (12) of reduced resistance, are fitted to extensions on the two ends of the strip so that the latter forms a continuous ring even when the coupling is released.
Patent PT-1164330-E (PT)
Inventor: JOZEF BERLO MARCELLUS ANTONIUS
IPC: F01K3/24
Filed: 2001-06-14
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating steam using a waste incinerator, wherein steam (A) is formed from water in a heat exchanger by heating same with flue gases from a waste incinerator and is then fed to a steam drum, conducting flue gases in a heat exchanger along bundles of pipes through which the steam (A) from the steam drum is fed in order to create steam (B) at a temperature of at least 450 DEG C and at a pressure of at least 70 bars, and wherein the steam (B) is fed to the first turbine stage. After leaving one stage of the turbine, the steam is reheated in a heat exchanger with the aid of steam (A') which comes from the steam drum so as to create steam (D) that is fed to at least one successive turbine stage. By feeding the steam to be reheated from the steam drum, there is an extra degree of freedom in the dimensioning of the boiler. It is possible to realise a net efficiency of more than 30% in combination with a second and third economiser. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Safety system for vehicles, applicable to transmitting information from a vehicle confronted with emergency conditions to a control centre, in such a way that the latter is able to locate the position of the said vehicle and to take the appropriate decisions. The system makes use of a device which sends/receives digital messages to or from a control centre via the GSM communications system. The said messages contain information relating to the position of the vehicle and are generated in response to a message coming from the control centre or by activation of alarm means which are provided in the vehicle. The control centre thus has available the relevant information on the vehicles and on the geographical area covered by the system and can process it jointly with the information transmitted to the vehicle and/or received therefrom. The interchange of information between the control centre and the vehicle or vehicles takes place in the form of short data messages through the short message service of the GSM network, with the intervention of a service centre of the said network for storing and distributing the said short messages. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method is provided for regenerating cotton plants from explant tissue. The improved method allows the generation of embryogenic callus from a cotton tissue explant which is not cultivated on cotton initiation media having exogenous plant hormones. The method can be utilized in the transformation of cotton plants, by cutting cotton tissue to form an explant, co-cultivating the cotton explant tissue with Agrobacterium comprising a DNA sequence of interest, and culturing the co-cultivated explant on cotton initiation media comprising a selective agent but having no exogenous plant hormones. In this fashion transformed cells are induced to produce embryogenic callus on hormone-free selective media.

Abstract: A computer system with a speech recognition component provides a method and apparatus for instructing and evaluating the proficiency of human users in skills that can be exhibited through speaking. The computer system tracks linguistic, indexical and paralinguistic characteristics of the spoken input of users, and implements games, data access, instructional systems, and tests. The computer system combines characteristics of the spoken input automatically to select appropriate material and present it in a manner suitable for the user. In one embodiment, the computer system measures the response latency and speaking rate of the user and presents its next spoken display at an appropriate speaking rate. In other embodiments, the computer system identifies the gender and native language of the user, and combines that information with the relative accuracy of the linguistic content of the user's utterance to select and display material that may be easier or more challenging for speakers with these characteristics.

Each multipole lens is oriented to provide a correction to an associated electron beam to at least partially compensate for the effect of the astigmatic magnetic field on the associated beam. There are two multipole lens electrodes. A second of the two multipole lens electrodes (44) is connected to and combined with a main focusing lens electrode (44), and a first of the two multipole lens electrodes (42) is located between the second multipole lens electrode and the beam-forming region and faces the second multipole lens electrode.
