Envelope shaping of decorrelated signals

The envelope of a decorrelated signal derived from an original signal can be shaped without introducing additional distortion, when a spectral flattener is used to spectrally flatten the spectrum of the decorrelated signal and the original signal prior to using the flattened spectra for deriving a gain factor describing the energy distribution between the flattened spectra, and when the so derived gain factor is used by an envelope shaper to timely shape the envelope of the decorrelated signal.

Expandable reaming device

An expanding reamer for reaming or cutting a concave surface, for example, for reaming an acetabulum in preparation for implanting a prosthetic component, such as an acetabular cup or socket, during a hip arthroplasty. The reamer includes a rotating shaft cooperating with a surgical drill or other power source at one end and rotating a reamer head at the other end, and a system adapted to expand one or more blades on the reamer head. In a preferred version, the reamer head comprises a plurality of generally circular, preferably substantially flat and parallel blades, the outer blades of which are radially expandable as segments of a cutting sphere to enlarge the effective diameter of the reamer head. A transverse blade may guide expansion of the blades to move upwards as well as outward to maintain a nearly perfect cutting sphere across a range of diameters. Upon rotation of the reamer head, the blades form a portion of an effective cutting sphere that is preferably greater-than-180-degrees in order to allow greater flexibility in placement of the shaft of the reamer relative to the surface being reamed, for example, relative to the center of axis of the acetabulum.

Devices, systems, and methods for reshaping a heart valve annulus

Devices, systems, and methods employ an implant that is sized and configured to attach to the annulus of a dysfunctional heart valve annulus. In use, the implant extends across the major axis of the annulus above and / or along the valve annulus. The implant reshapes the major axis dimension and / or other surrounding anatomic structures. The implant restores to the heart valve annulus and leaflets a more functional anatomic shape and tension. The more functional anatomic shape and tension are conducive to coaptation of the leaflets, which, in turn, reduces retrograde flow or regurgitation. The implant improves function to the valve, without surgically cinching, resecting, and / or fixing in position large portions of a dilated annulus, or without the surgical fixation of ring-like structures.

Chamber of a peristaltic pump for tire pressure adjustment

A chamber (1) that works as a peristaltic pump for the pressure correction in the tire (4), which is a part of the tire (4) or of an ancillary structure (6) placed between the rim (7) and the tire bead (4) and is connected with the tire (4) internal space at one end and with the external environment at the other end. The chamber (1) is in the shape of a curved hollow channel, where at least one enclosing wall is at least partially formed by at least a pair of surfaces (10) coplanar with the longitudinal direction of the chamber (1). When the tire is mounted on the rim, the pair of surfaces (10) are pressed together thus hermetically closing the chamber (1). When the chamber (1) is closed during rotation of the wheel, the surfaces (10) can slightly slide on one another taking internal wall tensions onto themselves thus decreasing the possibility of wall damage through ripping. A method of producing the chamber (1) is also disclosed.

Axial flux motor with active flux shaping

An improved electric motor design wherein the interior surface of the stator has a plurality of corrugations intersected by annular grooves formed therein and a corresponding number of rotor disks having permanent magnets secured to their outer surface, the permanent magnets being positioned to rotate within the grooves. The magnets alternate in polarity about each disk as well as being offset about the circumference from disk to disk so that one disk set will align with the pole face created by the intersection of the corrugations and the adjacent annular grooves and the other disk set will be offset from the corrugations and pole faces. Alternately energizing coils positioned within a plurality of notches formed in the outer surface of the stator with alternating current causes the magnets and their associated disks to reposition themselves in a manner that causes the motor shaft to rotate as well as shaping the core flux field for more efficient use, thereby increasing motor torque.

Mold for achieving in-mold rapid forming and quenching

The invention provides a mold for achieving in-mold rapid forming and quenching. The mold comprises an upper mold, a binder ring and a lower mold, the upper mold is composed of an inner solid mold core and a thin-walled skin, and interconnected grooves are formed between the inner solid mold core and the thin-walled skin. In the forming stage, no heat insulation material such as filler or fillinggas exists in the grooves, and a low-temperature medium is introduced into the grooves in the quenching stage. The mold has the advantages that the forming and quenching processes are relatively independent and have little influence on each other, the skin is small in wall thickness and small in heat capacity, the grooves are filled with the heat insulation materials, the problem that a hot plateblank and a cold mold are rapidly cooled after making contact during forming can be avoided, and rapid cooling and quenching of the formed hot plate blank can be achieved. The mold core is prepared from common mold materials through common machining equipment, the mold manufacturing period is short, and the cost is low. The mold can be used for achieving rapid forming and quenching of metal materials of different types and thicknesses.

Shape measurement method of synthetically combining partial measurements

Coordinate transformation parameters are adopted at the time of synthetically combining partial measurement data so as to eliminate the setting error that can get in when a workpiece is set in position on a measuring machine. Then, a shape parameter is adopted to estimate the approximate error shape of the entire workpiece and the approximate error shape is removed from the measurement data. As a result, the residuals are reduced if the measurement data are those of three-dimensional sequences of points. Differences are small when small residuals are compared so that the mismatch is reduced. According to the present invention, the entire measurement data can be synthetically combined without using the conventional concept of overlap.

Novel control method for improving lithium ion soft-package laminated battery diaphragm fold

The invention relates to a novel control method for improving lithium ion soft-package laminated battery diaphragm fold. The problem that the battery performance is influenced due to the fold of the soft-package laminated lithium ion battery diaphragm is solved. The control method comprises the following steps: laying down a battery after liquid injection, thereby ensuring that the electrolyte sufficiently infiltrates a pole piece; and then performing rolling on the lay-down battery, and controlling the pressure and speed of the rolling in the rolling process; pre-charging the battery after the rolling is ended; and performing secondary rolling on the completely pre-charged battery, further shaping the diaphragm, and releasing the gas to finish the secondary package. The contacting interface between a positive / negative pole piece and the diaphragm is better by comparing the lithium ion soft-package laminated battery prepared based on the control method with the battery without performing the rolling shaping, the dead lithium existing in the fold area caused by the diaphragm fold is avoided, thus the capacity of the positive / negative material is sufficiently played, and the batteryperformance is improved.
