Patent EP-1332236-A2 (EP)
Inventor: BOYLAN JOHN FRANCIS
IPC: C22F1/00
Filed: 2001-10-09
Abstract: Cold worked nickel-titanium alloys that have linear pseudoelastic behavior without a phase transformation or onset of stress-induced martensite as applied to a medical device having a strut formed body deployed from a sheath. In one application, an embolic protection device that employs a linear pseudoelastic nitinol self-expanding strut assembly with a small profile delivery system for use with interventional procedures. The expandable strut assembly is covered with a filter element and both are compressed into a restraining sheath for delivery to a deployment site downstream and distal to an interventional procedure. Once at the desired site, the restraining sheath is retracted to deploy the embolic protection device, which captures flowing emboli generated during the interventional procedure. Linear pseudoelastic nitinol is used in the medical device as distinct from non-linear pseudoelastic (i.e., superelastic) nitinol.

Abstract: In a vacuumized cathode ray tube consisting of a panel and a funnel and
including a funnel yoke portion having a non-circular-shaped vertical section, when
a diagonal portion thickness on a certain vertical section between a reference line
and a neck line is Td and a long side portion thickness at the same vertical section
is Th, a glass structure of a cathode ray tube satisfies 0.5 < Th/Td < 1.01, when a
diagonal portion thickness at a top of round is Dt', a long side portion thickness is
D S ', a short side portion thickness is D L '; a diagonal portion thickness at a
reference line is Dt, a long side portion thickness is D S , a short side portion
thickness is D L ; a glass structure of a cathode ray tube satisfies 1.3 ≤ Dt'/Dt < 1.80.
Accordingly, because a deflection efficiency and a BSN margin can be
simultaneously improved, it is possible to slim down a cathode ray tube, reduce a
power consumption thereof and improve a quality and a productivity thereof. In
addition, it is also possible to improve impact resistance of a slim type cathode ray
tube, reduce a breakage rate in a heating process and prevent explosion in a

Abstract: An active noise cancellation system is operative to reduce noise transmission
through a vehicle air induction system. The active noise cancellation system
includes a controller that utilizes computer modelling to ensure adequate noise
cancellation. The controller generates a modelling sound to make determinations
regarding the noise cancellation system, such as timing constraints associated with a
speaker or microphone of the system. The modelling sound is selected to be
consistent with a sound typically heard by an individual, given the current engine
operating status. In another example, the selected sound masks another modeling
sound such as random noise.

Abstract: A transmitter (10) based on a frequency synthesizer includes an
LC tank (12) of a digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) with
various arrays of capacitors. The LC tank 12 is divided into
two major groups that reflect two general operational modes:
acquisition and tracking. The first group
(process/voltage/temperature and acquisition) approximately sets
the desired center frequency of oscillation initially, while the
second group (integer and fractional tracking) precisely
controls the oscillating frequency during the actual operation.
For highly accurate outputs, dynamic element matching (DEM) is
used in the integer tracking controller to reduce nonlinearities
caused by non-uniform capacitor values. Also, a
preferred range of the integer tracking capacitor array may be
used for modulation after the selected channel has been
acquired. A digital sigma-delta modulator circuit (50) drives a
capacitor array (14d) in response to the fractional bits of the
error word. On mode switches, the accumulated error is
recalculated to a phase restart value to prevent perturbations.

Abstract: A data management system for storing data in a multiple-level cache arrangement
of a database comprises a multi-tier cache memory for initially storing all data in
summary form in a secondary cache which may be the database; a processor for receiving
requests for data and for moving requested data from the secondary cache to a primary
cache, wherein, when subsequent requests for data are received, the primary cache is
searched before the secondary cache; and for periodically synchronizing and merging all
data in the primary cache back into said secondary cache to refresh said primary cache
and remove stale information. The system is particularly useful for managing a
telecommunications system call detail summary database in which telephone call details
are collected as AMA records after the calls terminate and the AMA records are
forwarded to a call detail database for storage in summary form and analysis by an
external system, for example, for fraud analysis or billing purposes.
