    摘要: An undersea hydraulic coupling having a ring-shaped metal seal that is held in place between the female member body and a sleeve-shaped seal retainer is disclosed. The annular metal seal includes a lip or leg section which is clamped in place between the female member body and the seal retainer. A hollow portion of the seal extends radially inwardly from the lip portion of the seal and is expansible to form a fluid tight seal against the body of the male member. The hollow portion of the metal seal is preferably cylindrical in cross-section and is sufficiently flexible in response to fluid pressure to form a fluid tight seal between the female member, male member, and seal retainer.

Steps of inserting a print wheel and a first tape cartridge into the engine, heating a character-containing portion of a character finger, forcing and printing a desired character in a character debossment operation are included. In another operation, the steps of removing the daisy wheel and the first tape cartridge, inserting an indicia-forming debossment die and a second tape cartridge, heating the die and forcing and thermally printing desired indicia on the workpiece, is set forth. In another aspect of the method, the steps of holding the tape on reels in the cartridges, striking the tape to deboss the pigmented media, stripping a struck portion of the tape from the workpiece and then advancing a tape take-up reel are set forth. In another embodiment, the steps of determining residual heat in a character portion or die and varying the dwell time of subsequent strikings of the workpiece accordingly, are included.

    摘要: A probe member for an undersea hydraulic coupling is disclosed having at least one circumferential depression in its outer cylindrical body, for disengaging one or more radial seals during insertion or withdrawal of the probe member from the receiving member of a coupling. The disengagement of the radial seals allows seawater to bleed from or into the space between the coupling members and thereby balance the coupling and seals to seawater pressure.

    摘要: Under the present invention, a method and apparatus are provided for compensating for the effect temperature variations have on the wavelength of light emitted by the oximeter sensor light sources (40, 42). In pulse oximetry, LEDs are typically employed to expose tissue to light at two different wavelengths. The light illuminating the tissue is received by a detector (38) where signals proportional to the intensity of light are produced. These signals are then processed by the oximeter circuitry to produce an indication of oxygen saturation. Because current oximetry techniques are dependent upon the wavelengths of light emitted by the LEDs (40-42), the wavelengths must be known. Even when predetermined combinations of LEDs (40-42) having relatively precise wavelengths are employed, variations in the wavelength of light emitted may result. Because the sensor (12) may be exposed to a significant range of temperatures while in use, the effect of temperature on the wavelengths may be significant. To compensate for this effect, a temperature sensor (50) is included in the sensor (12) to produce a signal indicative of sensor temperature. This signal is interpreted by the oximeter circuitry including, for example, a microcomputer (16), where the effect of temperature on wavelength is compensated for. In a preferred arrangement, this compensation takes the form of a computation of an alternative calibration curve from which the oxygen saturation is indicated, given a particular processing of signals from the detector (38).

    摘要: A feedback control system is disclosed for use in processing signals employed in pulse transmittance oximetry. The signals are produced in response to light transmitted through, for example, a finger at two different wavelengths. Each signal includes a slowly varying baseline component representing the relatively fixed attenuation of light produced by bone, tissue, skin, and hair. The signals also include pulsatile components representing the attenuation produced by the changing blood volume and oxygen saturation within the finger. The signals are processed by the feedback control system before being converted by an analog-to-digital (A/D) converter (72) for subsequent analysis by a microcomputer (16). The feedback control system includes a controllable offset subtractor (66), a programmable gain amplifier (68), controllable drivers (44) for the light sources (40,42), and the microcomputer (16). The microcomputer receives signals from the offset subtractor (66), gain amplifier (68), drivers (44) and A/D converter (72) to produce signals that control the function of the subtractor (66) and drivers (44) in the following manner. Normally, the drivers (44) are maintained within a predetermined current range. In the event the microcomputer (16) senses an output from the converter (72) that is not within a predetermined range, the drive signal is adjusted to produce an acceptable signal. The magnitude of the offset removed by the subtractor (66), as controlled by the microcomputer (16), is maintained at a constant level when the converter (72) output is within a first predetermined range and is a predetermined function of the converter (72) output when that output falls within a second predetermined range.

    摘要: The present invention relates to the processing of signals containing information about the pulse rate and oxygen saturation of arterial blood flowing in tissue. These signals have a relatively periodic pulsatile component superimposed upon a varying baseline component. To determine the pulse rate and oxygen saturation from the signals, the positive peaks, negative peaks, and period of the signal must be determined. The present invention accomplishes this by first searching for a sustained positive sloping region of the signal. Then the first derivative of the signal with respect to time is analyzed and points on the signal before and after the occurrence of a slope reversal marked. If the slope at the first point is positive, the interval between the two points is searched for a maximum amplitude that is identified as a positive peak. After the occurrence of a negative sloping region of the signal, another pair of points are marked occurring before and after a subsequent slope reversal. The minimum amplitude of the signal between these points is then identified as a negative peak. For improved accuracy, these positive and negative peaks are then compared with waveform templates to determine whether the amplitude between the peaks falls within an allowable range and to determine whether the interval between the peaks likewise falls within an acceptable range. These ranges are adjustable in proportion to the amplitude and interval compared against them. In this manner, values for the positive peak, negative peak, and period of the signal can be determined with high reliability.

    摘要: An electric horn, especially adapted for automotive vehicles includes a pole piece and adjusting cap for the driving motor. The pole piece and adjusting cap include a cylindrical shank and an enlarged head including a conical flange. The flange terminates in an annular rim which is in contact with and secured to the horn housing by resistance welding. A magnetic circuit for the motor extends from the pole face of the pole piece and adjusting cap through the shank and the head to the housing and the cross-sectional area for the flux path through the head is at least as great as that in the shank and sufficiently large to avoid undue magnetic saturation. The rim of the enlarged head has a diameter greater than that of the shank and less than the diameter of the housing coil cup to thereby obtain increased stiffness in the connection of the pole piece and adjusting cap with the housing.
