Granted: 1989-03-09
Abstract: Method of systematically simulating and displaying the cyclical components of the behaviour of the movement of a curve relating two parameters to one another, in which the following are obtained: a moving average (14) of the curve (10); an oscillator (16), a series of dynamic moving averages (20,22,24,26,28); and pairs of inner and outer envelopes (32,34; 35,37; 36,38). This derived information is used as a basis to calculate the probable future movement of the curve (10). An industrial application of this method controls the flow of coolant liquid through a chamber (102). A temperature sensor (108) supplies information to a computer (106) which is in communication with the use through a keyboard (114) and control unit (112). Set of lines relating to the above derived information are displayed on a V.D.U. (116), from which the user can either manually effect control of the rate of flow of the coolant liquid via a pump (104) or request the computer to automatically effect the control to prevent the temperature of the coolant liquid exceeding or falling below given limits.

Title: Thin film forming process
Inventor: IWANI MASAAKI
IPC: H01L21/3063
Filed: 1998-03-25
Granted: 2002-03-07
Abstract: A process for producing an SOI substrate is disclosed which is useful for saving resources and lowering production cost. Further, a process for producing a photoelectric conversion device such as a solar cell is disclosed which can successfully separate a substrate by a porous Si layer, does not require a strong adhesion between a substrate and a jig, and can save resources and lower production cost. In a substrate having a porous layer on a nonporous layer and further having on the porous layer a layer small in porosity, the nonporous layer and the layer small in porosity are separated by the porous layer to form a thin film. A metal wire is wound around a side surface of the substrate, and a current is made to flow into the metal wire to generate a heat from the metal wire and transfer the heat preferentially to the porous layer, thus conducting the separation. The separated substrate is used for producing an SOI substrate and the separated nonporous Si layer is reutilized in a process of producing an SOI substrate. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Title: An internal combustion engine camshaft drive mechanism
IPC: F01L1/344
Filed: 1990-10-04
Granted: 1993-04-29
Abstract: A camshaft drive mechanism operates the inlet valves of a first cylinder through a variable valve timing (VVT) mechanism at one end of an engine block and the inlet valves of a second cylinder through a VVT mechanism at the other end of the block. In a four cylinder engine the first cylinder is No 1 and the second cylinder is No 4, cylinders Nos 2 and 3 having separate VVT mechanisms adjacent the VVT mechanisms of cylinders Nos 1 and 4 respectively. A preferred form of VVT mechanism includes an eccentric sleeve which provides a journal for a driving member. Rotation of the eccentric sleeve in an offset bore alters the valve timing. By having the offset equal to the eccentricity of the sleeve the potential wear of the components of the VVT mechanism is reduced.

Title: Method for fabricating an orthotic member
Inventor: NEBOLON JOSEPH F
IPC: A61F5/01
Filed: 1994-06-27
Granted: 1998-04-09
Abstract: A method is provided for prefitting a stiffened member to a curved body having a geometry approximatable by a cone. Two points are initially selected on the surface of the body which also lie on two different planes passing through the body, such that the intersection of the surface and the planes defines two closed curves. A cone is approximated based on parameters relating to the curves and the selected points. A three-dimensional pattern of a stiffened member is then superimposed onto the conical surface at a modelling position corresponding to the desired placement position of the member on the body. The geometry and dimensions of the pattern are mathematically specified relative to the conical surface and the specifications provide a model for fabricating the prefitted stiffened member. <IMAGE>

The barrier layer comprises silica doped with B<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>, P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> and GeO<sub>2</sub>. The core consists of an inner region and an outer region, the boundary between which is referred to as the core break-point. In the outer region of the core, the concentration of B<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> decreases linearly from its barrier layer level to zero at the core break-point, the P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> increases at a rapid rate from the barrier layer level to a first concentration level at the core break-point and the GeO<sub>2</sub> remains at a constant value between zero and the barrier level. In the outer region of the core, the GeO<sub>2</sub> increases from some level up tothe barrier layer level to a greater value at the filament axis in a power law fashion. The P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> also increases in a power law fashion from the value thereof at the core break-pointto a higher value at the filament axis, the increase in concentration of P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> in the outer core region increasing at a rate greater than the concentration of P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> would increase if the power law P<sub>2</sub>O<sub>5</sub> gradient extended into the outer core region. Also disclosed is a method of making a preform for such a filament.

During use, the ring is inserted through the incision and the collar is inflated while remaining outside of the incision, thereby drawing the skirt against the edges of the incision and retracting the edges of the incision to form the opening. The retracting device can be included in a surgical access port, which further includes a flexible sleeve connected to at least one of the inflatable collar and the skirt, extending the channel from the exit opening of the skirt to an open end of the flexible sleeve distal to the skirt. The device can include a light source in the vicinity of the exit opening.
