Patent EP-0597728-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SHOLDER JASON A
IPC: A61N1/362
Filed: 1993-11-12
Abstract: A dual-chamber implantable pacemaker configured to operate in the DDD or DDDR mode automatically adjusts its AV (or PV) interval to an amount just less than the natural conduction time of a patient, thereby assuring that ventricular pacing occurs in a patient's cardiac cycle at a time near when a natural ventricular contraction (an R-wave) would occur. The pacemaker includes a pulse generator that generates ventricular stimulation pulses (V-pulses) at the conclusion of a pacemaker-defined AV (or PV) interval if no natural ventricular activity (an R-wave) is sensed during such AV (or PV) interval. The AV (or PV) intervals are automatically adjusted by the pacemaker to be just less than the natural conduction time sensed by the pacemaker, where the natural conduction time is the time between atrial activity (a sensed P-wave or a delivered A-pulse) and the subsequent natural ventricular activity (R-wave). The system and method are particularly adapted for use by patients suffering from a cardiomyopathy in order to improve cardiac output.

Abstract: A heat treating furnace (10) has a hot zone enclosure (13) with a substantially rectangular cross section. The floor (20) of the hot zone enclosure (13) is formed such that it is removable independently of the remainder of the hot zone enclosure. The heat treating furnace has a heating element (24) with a novel support element (26) that is readily mounted on and removed from the hot zone enclosure and which adjusts to accommodate a wide range of heating element thicknesses and insulation shield thicknesses. The electrically insulating components of the support element are formed to resist electrical shorting resulting from metallization and to resist cracking from thermally induced stress. The heat treating furnace further includes a cooling gas injection nozzle (30) formed to reduce turbulence in the injected gas stream and to be readily attached to or removed from the hot zone enclosure (13). The gas injection nozzle is preferably formed of a ceramic material and is mounted in an opening in the hot zone enclosure by means of a very coarse, light-bulb-like, thread (932) formed in the body of the gas nozzle.

Abstract: A control system for the trailer device of a vehicle, to which a ground-working appliance can be fastened, contains actuating means, by means of which the trailer device can be raised and lowered over a position range in dependence on control signals. The control system contains a traction sensor, a sensor for recording the position of the trailer device, a command lever actuable by an operator, setting means for the upper limiting position of the trailer device, the mixing of the operating modes and the speed of descent, and a control unit which generates control signals as a function of the recorded and set values. The control system comprises a first (load) control mode, in which the trailer device is controlled as a linear function mainly of the recorded traction force, and a second control mode, in which the trailer device is controlled only as a non-linear function of the recorded position of the trailer device. In the load-control mode, a reference-position value is used as a desired value which represents only a lower range of the position of the trailer device. The traction sensitivity and the system amplification are derived from the operating-mode mix setting means, so that, with increasing sensitivity, the system amplification also increases. The sensitivity value is limited within a predeterminable range. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The invention relates to a blow-moulded coolant hose consisting of a number of polymer layers with great hydrolysis and bursting pressure resistance for engines, in particular vehicle engines. It has been established that, surprisingly, multilayer hoses with a combination of differently active layers of different thickness made of suitable polymers, e.g. with a non-swellable inner layer which is inert for coolant and a rigid supporting, especially bursting-pressure resistant outer layer, are particularly suitable. These layers must be mutually compatible or connected by an intermediate layer which is compatible with the two layers. Such hoses according to the invention have preferably been blow-moulded in a known manner after coextrusion of their layers made from the various polymers and after placing the tube or hose blank in any desired mould, the so-called 3-D-hose manipulation.

Abstract: An airbag inflator (30) includes a housing (32) for holding gas generating materials (62) and has an outer diffuser wall (36) with a ring of discharge or diffuser ports (36a) arranged to direct the gas into an airbag for rapid inflation. The ports are generally closer to one of the top and bottom end walls (34, 42) of the container than they are to the opposite end wall. A gas filter (90) of varying permeability is mounted in the housing inside the periphery of the outer diffuser wall adjacent to the ring of ports, and has a gas permeability characteristic that varies between a maximum permeability rating in a first region (96) farthest away from the ring of ports to a minimum permeability rating adjacent a second region (92) closer to the ports. The varying permeability areas (92, 94, 96) tend to even out the gas flow over the entire available flow cross-section of the filter so that blow-through or burn holes do not develop, resulting in a maximum of filtering and entrapment of contaminants as well as excellent cooling of the hot gases with the least flow resistance overall.

Abstract: In a vehicle power generating system having an AC power generator (100), a quantity which is related to the state of power generation of the power generator (100) and varies according to the supply of a leading phase current (ix-iz) to the power generator (100), is detected. When the passage of the leading phase current (ix-iz) through each armature winding (5a-5c) is determined as necessary based on the detected status quantity, the leading phase current (ix-iz) is supplied to each armature winding (5a-5c) (an increase in the amount of supply of the leading phase current (ix-iz) is included). If passage is determined as unnecessary, then the supply of the leading phase current (ix-iz) to each armature winding (5a-5c) is stopped (a decrease in the leading phase current (ix-iz) is included). If so, then a change (improvement) in the state of power generation such as an increase in output or the like due to the above supply can be achieved by supplying the leading phase current (ix-iz) thereto when its change is required. When the above change is unnecessary, the supply of the leading phase current (ix-iz) thereto can be stopped to suppress a defective condition incident to the supply of the leading phase current (ix-iz) thereto, particularly, the rate of change in output current, i.e., an increase in ripple. Owing to the above construction, the supply of the leading phase current (ix-iz) to the power generator (100) can be achieved by a simple circuit configuration and the state of power generation and the condition of a vehicle can be improved.
