An electrical connector includes an insulative housing, at lease one contact mounted to the insulative housing and a fusible element mounted to the contact. The contact includes a body portion and a mounting portion extending from the body portion. The mounting portion includes a support portion and first and second tails bent from the support portion along opposite directions in order to form a discrete receiving slot. The first and the second tails are substantially perpendicular to the body portion. The fusible element is received in the receiving slot and is in line with the body portion of the contact for reliable fixation.

A spectral tissue Doppler processor for an ultrasound system produces Doppler phase shift estimates of sequences of signal samples from a sample volume with a short-lag autocorrelator. The autocorrelation products are summed and an arc tangent taken of each sum to produce angle estimates. The angle estimates, which are proportional to the tissue motion velocity, are plotted, smoothed, and displayed as a spectral tissue Doppler display. The angle estimates are also used to produce the audio Doppler signal which is frequency-adjustable by a user. The spectral Doppler display exhibits good time and velocity resolution for motion which is less than that of blood flow such as myocardial motion. Major causes of blurring, unevenness, and distortion are reduced or eliminated.

A system and method are provided for determining a fetal heart rate from ultrasound imaging data in near real-time. The heart rate is determined by analyzing spatial points on ultrasound cardiac volumes and calculating the peak spectral frequency of the changes in ultrasonic characteristics of the spatial points.

The present invention provides a method for a developer to create and display a “dialog definition”, i.e., a description of the dialog that has the position and size of its constituent elements expressed in relative layout rules. These layout rules include expressions of alignment and/or justification of the elements within a container, rather than expressions of the coordinate positions of the elements. In addition, a set of text strings is provided for each language in a separate language file. The user may identify an operating system and a language in which the dialog will be displayed, and the size of the elements in the identified operating system and language will be determined by the computer. The description is interpreted in the computer to lay out the dialog.

A method for adaptive filtering of clutter from a sample stream having a blood signal component and a clutter signal component comprises the steps of (a) estimating a signal strength of the sample stream, and (b) determining an order of a filter based on a relationship between the signal strength estimate and a signal strength threshold. The filter receives the sample stream and provides an output stream having a reduced level of the clutter signal component relative to the blood signal component.

A pump assembly for a penile implant is provided having a mechanism which prevents spontaneous inflation of the cylinders implanted within the user. The preventative mechanism uses overpressure generated by the reservoir during unintentional compression to effectively seal the pump assembly from unintended fluid flow. The prevention mechanism itself creates all necessary forces to prevent the undesired fluid flow to the cylinders. This is accomplished by incorporating appropriate mechanisms within the pump itself.

An ultrasound transducer assembly includes an acoustic mirror, an ultrasound transducer positioned to direct a scanned ultrasound beam at the acoustic mirror, wherein the scanned ultrasound beam is reflected by the acoustic mirror to form a reflected ultrasound beam, and an actuating device for moving the acoustic mirror relative to the scanned ultrasound beam so that the reflected ultrasound beam scans a three-dimensional volume. An ultrasound matching fluid may be disposed between the ultrasound transducer and the acoustic mirror. The actuating device may be configured for rotating the acoustic mirror, translating the acoustic mirror or rotating and translating the acoustic mirror. The acoustic mirror may have a single acoustically-reflecting surface of may be a polygon having a plurality of acoustically-reflective surfaces.
摘要:
A process for the separation of minerals of different mineralogical character. The process involves conditioning a milled slurry or a slurry of a flotation concentrate which contains a mixture of valuable sulfidic minerals and non-sulfidic gangue material with an inert/non-oxidizing gas and/or a reducing/deoxifying agent. The conditioning is conducted to achieve a controlled dissolved oxygen content or electrochemical reduction potential conducive to the separation of the valuable sulfidic mineral, non-sulfidic gangue material. The inert/non-oxidizing gas and/or reducing/deoxifying agent may be added to the slurry in a quantity sufficient to increase rejection of the non-sulfidic gangue minerals or to improve the selectivity between the valuable sulfidic minerals and non-sulfidic gangue minerals.

Method and apparatus for frequency measurement of an undulating signal with a time varying frequency. A sequence of consecutive time intervals T.sub.1, T.sub.2, T.sub.3, T.sub.4, T.sub.5, etc. is determined, and the sum ##EQU1## of times of completion of cycles of the undulating signal within the time interval T.sub.p is determined for p=1,2,3,4,5, etc. The differences T.sub.1, T.sub.2, T.sub.3, T.sub.4, T.sub.5, etc. are then used to determine an average frequency within the combined time interval pairs {T.sub.1,T.sub.3 }, {T.sub.2, T.sub.4 }, {T.sub.3, T.sub.5 }, etc.
