摘要:
The container or trailer is separated into three inner compartments: a rear compartment in which the motor of the power generator is located, a front compartment in which the radiators for cooling the motor are located, with the radiators being operatively linked to the motor in a conventional fashion with cooling fluid pipes, and an intermediate compartment between the front and rear compartments. Air channels link the front compartment with the intermediate compartment, and the rear compartment with the intermediate compartment. A first fresh air intake port is provided in the trailer side wall in the rear compartment, for cooling the flywheel of the motor, and a second fresh air intake port is provided in the trailer side wall in the front compartment, for cooling the radiators. A warm air outlet port is provided in the trailer ceiling in the intermediate compartment. A plenum fan is operatively installed in the intermediate compartment, sucking in air from both the front and rear compartments, and exhausting through the outlet port.

A graft or an intervertebral piece or cage designed to be inserted between two vertebrae, and an implant in the form of a staple, having two lateral branches designed to be inserted into the plates of the respective vertebrae to be immobilized and a central branch connecting these two lateral branches to each other. At least one lateral branch has at least one mobile portion, movable between an introduction position, in which this mobile portion is located in the extension of the rest of this lateral branch, and an anchoring position, in which this mobile portion protrudes laterally in relation to the rest of the lateral branch, and the implant has movement means allowing the mobile portion to move between the introduction and anchoring positions.
摘要:
This equipment includes at least one U-shaped clip (1) whose lateral branches (10) have sections and widths such that they may be inserted in the vertebral bodies (100) of two vertebrae by impaction on the intermediate branch (11) of the clip (1), so as to rest along the cortical bones of the vertebral bodies, and whose intermediate branch (11) is deformable in such a way as to allow a reduction of the distance between the lateral branches (10); the intermediate branch, before implantation, has a length such that one of the lateral branches (10) may be positioned slightly above the cortical bone forming the plate of the subjacent vertebra while the other lateral branch (10) may be positioned slightly below the cortical bone forming the plate of the subjacent vertebra, and has, after deformation, a length such that the two lateral branches (10) may be brought closer to each other.

A fiber collimator is provided, comprising at least two optical components, one of the optical components (e.g., an optical element such as a collimating lens or a plano-plano pellet) having a surface that has a comparatively larger cross-sectional area than the surface of the other optical component(s) (e.g., at least one optical fiber). The optical components are joined together by fusion-splicing, using a laser. A gradient in the index of refraction is provided in at least that portion of the surface of the optical element to which the optical fiber(s) is fusion-spliced or at the tip of the optical fiber. The gradient is either formed prior to or during the fusion-splicing. Back-reflection is minimized, pointing accuracy is improved, and power handling ability is increased.

The container includes a floor panel, two side walls, two end walls, and a ceiling panel. The two side walls are made from a corrugated metallic sheet, defining flat wall portions with vertical ribs being formed between two successive flat wall portions. The ribs have inwardly oriented concave surfaces, and elongated rigid reinforcement strips are welded to the side wall panels in facing register with each rib concave surface.

摘要:
A method is provided for fusion-splicing with a laser beam two optical components, one of the optical components (e.g., an optical element such as a lens) having a surface that has a comparatively larger cross-sectional area than a surface of the other optical component (e.g., an optical fiber). The method comprises: (a) aligning the two optical components along one axis; (b) turning on a directional laser heat source to form the laser beam; (c) directing the laser beam to be collinear with that optical component having a smaller cross-sectional area; (d) ensuring that the laser beam strikes the surface of the optical component having the larger cross-sectional area at normal or near normal incidence so that absorption of the laser beam is much more efficient on the surface; (e) adjusting the power level of the laser beam to reach a temperature equal to or higher than the softening temperature of the surface of the optical component having the larger cross-sectional area to form a softening region thereon, thereby achieving the fusion-splicing; and (f) turning off the laser.
摘要:
The most common method of determining whether a breast contains cancerous tissue utilizes ionizing radiation, i.e. x-rays, which possible have tissue damaging properties. It has been found that lasers can be used as a light source in a breast tissue transillumination process. However, due to the high scattering coefficient (or diffusing properties) of breast tissue, it is not possible to obtain images having good resolution using classical transillumination techniques, even when a laser is used as the light source. When passing through a diffusing medium, a laser pulse decomposes into three classes of photons, namely ballistic, snake-like and diffuse photons. In most practical situations, the ballistic photon portion of a laser pulse, which travels in a straight line, does not pass through the tissue, i.e. only snake-like and diffuse photons pass through the tissue. It is proposed by this invention to use both the snake-like and diffuse photons in a method involving time gating and multiple field of view techniques to obtain a more precise evaluation of the scattering coefficients, i.e. a map of the interior of a region of the sample, whereby the presence (or absence) of tumors is determined. The use of multiple field of view and time gating techniques will yield a relatively clear picture of the structure of the tissue.
