Granted: 2011-07-15
Abstract: An apparatus for delivering brachytherapy to a target tissue region includes an elongate body including a proximal end, a distal end sized for introduction into a tissue tract and carrying a plurality of elongate members including pathways for receiving a source of radiation. The elongate members are movable between collapsed and expanded configurations. During use, a tract is created through tissue, and the elongate body carrying the elongate members is advanced through the tract into a target location with the elongate members in the collapsed configuration. The elongate members are directed to the expanded configuration at the target location, and radiation is delivered to treat tissue at the target location, e.g., by introducing one or more radiation sources along the pathways. The apparatus may include features to prevent overexpansion of the elongate members and/or to facilitate rapid collapse of the elongate members.

Abstract: The invention relates to a beverage pouring device in the form of a disposable barrel for the compressed-gas operated pouring of beverages such as beer, wine and soft drinks that are kept at drinking temperature, e.g. using compressed CO2. Said device consists of a multi-part container (100), a safety fitting (8) located on top of the container, a fitting pipe (10) that is immersed in the container interior and a detachable tap head that can be placed on the safety fitting or a connection piece that can be placed on said fitting during the filling process. When a lever is actuated, the head or piece displaces a seal that is situated in an external housing of the safety fitting, said housing connecting the safety fitting to the container body, downwards against an elastic force into a position that opens the liquid channel for the liquid beverage that rises via the fitting pipe. The device also optionally comprises a base and top ring. The aim of the invention is to achieve a simpler, less expensive construction using sheet steel, with an anti-corrosion protection which nevertheless complies with food safety and hygiene standards, whilst at the same time providing variable connection techniques during the filling and pouring process by means of the safety fitting (8). To achieve these aims, the safety fitting together with a liner (9; 9a) that is located in the interior of the container to protect the inner wall of the container (100), consist of a sterile material.

Abstract: A method for monitoring blade frequencies of a wind turbine and a monitoring system are provided. An accelerometer is attached to a rotating hub of a wind turbine measuring vibrations of the hub. To extract vibration signals originating from each blade, the vibration signals are combined with measuring signals from the azimuth angle sensor. Alternatively, the azimuth angle is found by using the measured accelerations in two directions representing the centrifugal forces and vibrating forces of the hub and feeding these signals into a phase locked loop unit establishing a phase of the rotating hub representing the azimuth angle. To extract each blade frequency, a Fast Fourier Transformation is used on the signals from the accelerometer. To monitor a severe change in each blade frequency, each blade frequency is compared to other blade frequencies and an alarm is set when a given level is reached and the wind turbine is stopped.
