摘要:
The polymerization of tetrafluoroethylene in aqueous suspension can be carried out with high conversion if the medium is thoroughly mixed using an axially conveying stirrer element in such a manner that a cone forms at least as far as the vicinity of the stirrer element. In the region of this stirrer element there are expediently arranged baffles which extend only over a part of the filling height of the reactor.
摘要:
A protective device for a repeatedly rechargeable electrochemical battery (10) with a battery housing (12), the protective device having at least one switching element (86) which can be activated by a detector element (62) and which is designed or adjusted to prevent recharging and/or discharging of the battery (10) in an impermissible operating state thereof. The protective device has a hermetically sealed protective housing (54) which holds the battery housing (12). An impermissible operating state of the battery (10) causes a change in shape (deflection) to be impressed on the detector element (62). Preferably, the at least one switching element (86) is made as a make contact which electrically short circuits a recharging circuit supplied by a charging device when a predetermined expansion in the volume of the battery housing (12) and/or gas escape therefrom occurs. The protective device is part of an implantable device, such as a hearing aid.

Implantable microphone for implantable hearing aids, which is used for excitation of hearing, such as cochlear implants or hearing aids with mechanical stimulation of the middle or inner ear, with a microphone capsule which is accommodated in a hermetically sealed housing, and with an electrical lead-in wire connector for connecting an implant line to the microphone module. The housing has at least two legs which are oriented at an angle relative to one another, one leg holding the microphone capsule and being provided with a sound inlet membrane, and the other leg containing the electrical lead-in wire connector. As a result of the two-legged geometry of the microphone housing, the microphone can be implanted after a mastoidectomy in the mastoid cavity such that the leg which has the sound inlet membrane lies in a hole in the posterior wall of the auditory canal so that, by mechanical contact of the membrane with the closed skin of the auditory canal wall, an acoustic signal incident in the external auditory canal is acoustically received, while the leg of the microphone housing containing the electrical lead-in wire connector is in the area of the mastoid tip. Completely implantable hearing aids for electrical excitation of hearing using the implantable microphone, can have, on the implant side, a battery arrangement for power supply which can be recharged transcutaneously via an external charging device. The audiological implant functions can, likewise, be transcutaneously controlled via a remote control.
摘要:
A permanently implantable, fixable positioning system (1) for stationary attachment to a human body, without play, preferably to the human skull. It has ball-and-socket joint (3), linear axle (4) fixed stationary to it, and a carriage (5) which is guided on the linear axle for accommodating an implantable actuator or sensor device (6). The combination of the axial degree of freedom of the linear axle (4) with three degrees of rotational freedom of the ball-and-socket joint (3) allows a surgeon four-axis, in-situ positioning of the implantable means especially in the middle ear and mastoid cavities. By using the positioning system, precise positioning of a free active end (16) of the implantable device (6) relative to sensitive anatomical structures of the human body is enabled while avoiding risky relative movements between the implantable device and the body of the patient. The positioning system is thus used more or less as a "tremor-free artificial hand" of the surgeon. According to one preferred embodiment, the implantable device is an implantable piezoelectric hearing aid transducer of a partially or completely implantable hearing aid.

摘要:
The present invention relates to a novel process for the production of sequences of interference layers composed of layers i of prescribed thicknesses d(i) and refractive indices n(i). In this process a stack of at least two layers i of glasses having refractive indices n(i) and thicknesses d0(i), which are each larger than the predetermined thicknesses d(i) by the same multiplying factor, is provided. The stack is heated to a temperature above the transformation temperature of the glasses and during or after heating, the stack is drawn in such a manner that the individual layers obtain the prescribed thicknesses d(i). After this the drawn stack is cooled.
摘要:
In the illustrative embodiments described, a double tube shock absorber is provided with a continuously open throttling fluid passage device both on the piston valve unit and the bottom valve unit. The continuously open fluid passage device comprises a fluid passage chamber defined by a first wall member and a second wall member. The fluid passage chamber is connected to a first fluid chamber of the shock absorber by a first axially directed opening and to a second fluid chamber of the shock absorber by a second radially directed opening. The second radially directed opening is located radially outward of said first opening. The axial height of the fluid passage chamber continuously decreases in radial direction between said first opening and said second opening.
