摘要:
This invention relates to thermodynamic cycles operating between two levels of subatmospheric temperature, whereby power is generated and/or refrigeration obtained, in which a heat transfer liquid is employed having a relatively high vapor pressure at atmospheric temperature.
摘要:
The differential amplifier circuit employs a pair of amplifier legs of similar electrical characteristics. Input signals are applied across the two legs at the base of a pair of transistors forming a first amplification stage. A further pair of output transistors are interrelated with the input amplification stage, and interconnecting the output transistors are constant current devices. Biasing voltage is applied via the constant current devices whereby common-mode signals are denied a path to the amplifier input and are effectively cancelled out to provide an output for the differential amplifier that is substantially purely related to the information signal. Another aspect is the provision of an input isolation circuit for eliminating commonmode return paths where the differential amplifier has internal voltage bias.
摘要:
An improved electromagnet for blood flowmeters and the like is made by filling the open central portion of a magnetizing coil with a mixture of iron powder suspended in a quick-hardening epoxy resin. The mixture is thereafter heated and cured to form an electrically nonconductive magnetic core.
摘要:
A needle or catheter is received within a region of the body at which fluid pressure is to be measured. At its external end, the needle/catheter is connected to a chamber which also includes a strain-gage sensor. A saline solution is supplied to the chamber and internal parts of the needle/catheter during pressure measurement via a conduit passing through parts of the straingage sensor assembly. The conduit terminates at a special orifice and channel on the surface wall of the sensor assembly to provide a perfusing of the chamber and inner parts of the needle/catheter at a very slow rate and with negligible back pressure.

PULSE GENERATING AND SHAPING CIRCUITS GENERATE A COMOSITE OUTPUT SIGNAL SIMULATING AN ECG SIGNAL FOR DISPLAY ON CATHODE-RAY PRESENTATION EQUIPMENT. THE CIRCUITS ARE SELECTIVELY CONTROLLABLE TO PROVIDE THE QRS, P AND T WAVES OF INDIVIDUALLY PRESCRIBED AMPLITUDES AND VARIABLE RELATIVE LOCATIONS ALONG THE X-AXIS. THE QRS WAVE MAY BE MADE TO EXTEND EITHER POSITIVELY IN THE Y DIRECTION, OR INVERTED TO EXTEND NEGATIVELY. A FURTHER ASPECT IS THE PROVISION OF ADDITIONAL PULSE SIGNAL GENERATING CIRCUITRY FOR PRODUCING A PULSE TRAIN REPRESENTTIVE OF BLOOD PRESSURE AS MEASURED WITHIN THE AORTA.
