Abstract: Un dispositif de réglage automatique de freins à disques comprend un organe extensible de réglage agencé entre le piston du frein et l'agencement d'actionnement mécanique et pourvu de deux éléments de réglage (14, 20) reliés l'un à l'autre par un filetage (18) exempt de blocage automatique. Le but de l'invention est de proposer une mesure qui évite un réglage indésirable lorsque l'on actionne la pédale de freinage avec le frein à main enclenché. Selon une première solution, l'autre élément de réglage n'est pas rotatif par rapport au piston du frein mais élastiquement mobile dans le sens axial, de sorte que le dispositif de réglage bloqué par l'enclenchement du frein à main reste bloqué même lorsque le piston effectue une course plus longue, étant donné que l'autre élément de réglage est enclenché avec le piston, tout en étant maintenu à une certaine distance axiale du piston, à l'état normal de fonctionnement lorsque le ressort (82) n'est pas étiré. Selon une deuxième solution, le dispositif de réglage est pourvu d'un piston à gradins (135) qui évite un réglage sous haute pression hydraulique. Une troisième solution consiste à pourvoir un des éléments de réglage d'un roulement flottant (246-285) qui permet à l'élément de réglage de se déplacer dans le sens longitudinal du cylindre du frein, après avoir surmonté des forces de frottement appropriées.

Abstract: Dans un système indicateur de route, qui détermine la route entre un point de départ indiqué et une destination et guide un véhicule automobile le long de cette route, des données relatives à des points nodaux (3), consistant en des données de position et leurs attributs, des données d'intersections (1) et des données relatives aux routes sont regroupées sous forme de données cartographiques utilisées pour la recherche de la route. Les données relatives à la route entre des intersections et les données relatives au point de départ et au point d'arrivée de la route et des intersections sont obtenues à partir des données relatives aux intersections (1) et aux routes (2); on détermine une route optimale en comparant chaque route dans une unité de recherche de route (4). Les données cartographiques sont organisées en une structure hiérarchique. Des réseaux de lignes de branchements sont développés dans une hiérarchie supérieure reliée à un réseau d'axes routiers et divisés en blocs; la recherche des intersections reliées aux réseaux routiers dans la hiérarchie inférieure vers la hiérarchie supérieure s'effectue de manière séquentielle et répétitive. Il est ainsi possible d'effectuer le traitement tout en limitant la plage de recherche, ce qui permet d'accélérer cette dernière. On peut en outre réduire la zone de travail nécessaire pour la recherche et économiser la capacité de la mémoire.

Title: Surgical stapler.
Inventor: STORACE ANTHONY
IPC: A61B17/00
Filed: 1989-05-23
Abstract: A surgical stapler device of the so-called pistol grip type includes a stack of staples loaded into a lower cartridge in an orientation similar to a conventional paper stapler. A former rotates and turns a leading staple 90 DEG  or normal to its prior orientation in the stack of staples as the former slides between a start position and a first intermediate forward position. The former is further displaced to a second intermediate forward position wherein the staple is moved in its perpendicular orientation within the device to the forming position which in turn moves a lower anvil. The former is further displaceable to a third intermediate forward position wherein the staple is formed around a staple forming surface of the lower anvil. The former moves to the final forward position wherein the former cams the lower anvil downwardly separating the formed staple from the staple forming surface of the lower anvil and an anti-bow button of the former contacts the cross-arm of the leading staple and pushes the cross-arm of the leading staple into abutting engagement with a downwardly depending lip of an upper anvil to set the staple. After the staple has been set, the lower anvil and former return together to the anvil home position. During this return, the staple transport surface of the lower anvil ends its lateral return phase below the leading staple in the cartridge. Further retraction of the former allows the lower anvil to rise, lifting the leading staple from the cartridge level to the forming level. This surgical stapler also includes allowing for a varying mechanical advantage to accommodate the staple advance at a resonable hand force level and provision for adjusting the amount of tissue which is drawn up or approximated within the perimeter of the formed staple.

Abstract: A novel method has been discovered for the preparation and application of a special vapourized mixture having therapeutical characteristics. This method has now been used for curing specific diseases in plant, human and animal cells by fully subjecting such affected cells to such vapourized mixture. This mixture is generated from a heated liquid, such as water, in which controllably a certain quantity of certain free gas particles e.g. hydrogen and oxygen is added, whereafter a chemical reaction takes place and a new material composition, specified as "Aquatilis", is created under simultaneous generation of heat. These free hydrogen and free oxigen gas particles with which the vapour mixture is enriched thereafter are kept in a state wherein diseased cell structures, are entirely and intensively surrounded by the "Aquatilis" mixture, and whereby during the treatment said mixture is kept in an enclosed space, e.g. a saunacabin (1). The mixture is kept at a predetermined elevated temperature by generating more free gas particles and maintaining in said space a predetermined vapour pressure, thereby forcing "Aquatilis" to attack e.g. chemical groups of socalled radicals which are considered to be found in certain diseased cell structures, thereby essentially and agressively supporting and augmenting the inner cellular offensive system energy against the presence of any noxious nuclei which affect the normal operational cell functions and destroying thereby such noxious nuclei entirely. The mixture has been successfully used to cure a.o. major diseases such as incurable multiple sclerosis, skin cancers and is believed to cure also patients from aids diseases.

Abstract: The invention relates to a labelling station for articles such as bottles. The removal element rotatably mounted on a driven support 1 is driven by a cam mechanism consisting of a positionally fixed double-cam plate 23 with two superposed cams 23a, 23b on one side and of two sets of followers 18a, 18b, 19a, 19b, 21a, 21b, 22a, 22b, these followers being mounted on the drive shaft 6, or a bearing shaft 18 coupled thereto, by means of a support element 17, and by positively engaging with the two cams 23a, 23b during the rotation of the support 1 ensure the constrained motion of each follower over its full rotation. For the purpose of simple and compact construction of the labelling station, the invention provides that the drive or bearing shaft 18 ends in front of the plane in which is situated the first cam 23a which lies closer to said shaft 18, and that the followers 21a, 21b, 22a, 22b, which are associated with the other, second cam 23b, are mounted on a bridge element 20 lying outside the said plane and supported by spacing elements 18a, 19a held on the support element 17, said spacing elements lying outside the region 26 over which the first cam 23a sweeps. It is preferable for the spacing elements 18a, 19a to be formed by the followers. Owing to the shaftless central space 26 between the followers 18a, 18b, 19a, 19b in the region of the first cam 23a, the cam 23a can also be fully formed and reach into this free space. <IMAGE>
