Patent EP-0612257-A1 (EP)
Inventor: REMMERS JOHN E
IPC: A61M16/00
Filed: 1992-11-13
Abstract: The present invention relates to systems and methods for automatically and continuously regulating the level of nasal pressure to an optimal value during OSA treatment. OSA therapy is implemented by a device which automatically re-evaluates an applied pressure and continually searches for a minimum pressure required to adequately distend a patient's pharyngeal airway. For example, this optimal level varies with body position and stage of sleep throughout the night. In addition, this level varies depending upon the patient's body weight and whether or not alcohol or sleeping medicine has been ingested.

Abstract: A small universal motor having an armature (3) and a field winding (6), as is used for driving hand-held apparatuses, is operated as a series-wound generator for electrical braking, the braking resistor (32) being connected in series with the field winding (6) and the armature (3). Connected in parallel with the braking resistor (32) or a part thereof is a switched semiconductor (35) which is continuously switched backwards and forwards between two states by means of a control circuit (41) having a Schmitt-trigger characteristic. In this case, the switching-off criterion of the power transistor (35) is the reaching of a predetermined excitation current, while the switching-on criterion is the voltage being less than a predetermined level, which is dependent on the armature voltage and the voltage of the field winding (6). <IMAGE>

Abstract: The set of implants and method of this invention provide for the conversion of an implant 10 intended for cemented fixation to a bone to an implant 10' intended for non-cemented fixation to a bone. The set of implants include a plurality of pads 20 each having a porous surface layer 24 bonded to a plate 22. A thin layer 30 of thermoplastic polymer is bonded to the opposite side of the plate 22. The implant 10 is provided with a generally smooth outer surface and is intended for cemented use for fixation to the bone. However, if during surgery, the surgeon determines that the patient may be better suited for a non-cemented implant, the modular porous pads 20 may be bonded to the implant 10 to form an implant 10' intended for non-cemented fixation to the bone.

Abstract: Apparatus for protecting optical elements 115, 117, 119) of an optical ink drop detector that detects the presence of an ink drop in a drop detection zone (134), and for maintaining an aperture plate (125) used in conjunction with the ink drop detector. The apparatus includes a movable plate (127) having an apertured region (125) and a non-apertured region. The plate is movable relative to the optical elements of the drop detector and is configured to have the aperture region adjacent a drop detection zone of the optical ink drop detector when in a first position and to have the non-apertured region adjacent the detection zone when in a second position. Cleaning brushes (137) are provided for cleaning ink from the aperture region of the movable plate when the plate is moved between the first and second positions, and an enclosure (135) is provided for enclosing the aperture region of the plate when said plate is in the second position. Thus, when the plate is in the second position, the optical elements of the optical drop detector are covered by the non-aperture region of the plate, while the apertured region of the plate is protectively contained in the enclosure.

Abstract: An optical recording medium includes in sequence a transparent substrate, a light-reflecting layer, a transparent intermediate layer and a light-absorbing layer. The light-reflecting layer and the light-absorbing layer are respectively formed as a layer of an organic coloring matter. The light-absorbing layer can cause deformation for recording information accompanied with a local charge in thickness of the transparent intermediate layer in response to a recording beam indicated to the light-absorbing layer through the transparent substrate. The transparent substrate, the light-reflecting layer, the transparent intermediate layer and the light-absorbing layer in combination constitutes a multilayer optical element with respect to a reproducing beam having a prescribed wavelength and incident to the light-absorbing layer through the transparent substrate, the multi-layer optical element showing a minimum reflectance and a maximum reflectance of the reproducing beam at an incident surface of the optical recording medium at different thicknesses of the transparent intermediate layer. The transparent intermediate layer is formed in a thickness providing a mediate reflectance between the maximum and minimum transmittances. At the record pit, the multi-layer optical element is converted into a fresh element providing a successive reflectance change including a higher and a lower reflectance with respect to the reference reflectance at non-record parts, due to the change in thickness of the transparent intermediate layer.

Abstract: The invention relates to amplifiers with transistors of the ''emitter follower'' type, and more particularly means for biasing these emitter followers: The amplifier of the invention includes a transistor follower (Q1), a bias circuit (CP1) injecting a base bias current (IB1) to the base (B1) of the transistor follower (Q1), a current generator (GI1) linking the emitter (E1) of the transistor follower (Q1) to a supply potential. According to one characteristic of the invention, the bias circuit (CP1) comprises, on the one hand, a transistor termed the image transistor (Q2) whose emitter (E2) is linked to the emitter (E1) of the transistor follower, and, on the other hand, means (Q3,Q4) for injecting to the base (B1) of the transistor follower (Q1) a current constituting a replica of the image transistor (Q2) base current. One of the advantages of this arrangement is that it makes it possible to produce the bias circuit (CP1) with transistors which are all of the same type, npn or pnp, as the transistor follower (Q1). <IMAGE>
