Device and Method for Detecting the Recirculation During an Extracorporeal Blood Treatment

A device and method for detecting recirculation for an extracorporeal blood treatment apparatus and an apparatus with a device for detecting recirculation are based on targeted haemodilution by administration of a substituate bolus, causing a pressure change in venous and arterial branches of the extracorporeal circuit due to a viscosity change of flowing fluid.Recirculation is detected based on detection of the pressure change. The device includes a control unit cooperating with a device for conveying blood and a device for supplying substituate. The control unit provides an operating mode for detecting recirculation, in which blood flow rate is reduced during administration of a substituate bolus. With simultaneous substituate bolus administration and reduction of blood flow rate, the composition of fluid flow is optimised for detection of recirculation, so that fairly large pressure changes result in venous and arterial branches, thereby improving sensitivity and reliability of the measurement method.

Spin-current effect in carbon coated conductors

The present invention introduces a method and a structure for effectively generating spin currents in a metallic electric conductor. When, for example, a conductor manufactured from copper is evenly coated with a thin carbon layer, the internal direction of the magnetic axis, i.e. the spin, of the electrons acting as charge carriers can be polarized in such a way that the spins of the set of electrons align in the area of the interface between carbon and copper. This results in intensive generation of the spin current in the coated conductor. The generation of the spin current enables reduction of losses, shortening of delays relating to signal transfer and improvement of the general immunity to interferences.

Recoil system for firearms

ActiveUS20110275036A1The equipment is reliableHigh simulationTraining adaptationEngineeringGas chamber
A device (1) simulates the recoil of a firearm and has a breechblock (60) with a knockover slide (63). To avoid freezing up and outward emissions, a control mechanism controls a hydraulic working piston in working connection with the breechblock (60). A valve pressure lever (11) is deflected by movement of the knockover slide (63) to open a pressure valve (20), as a result of which fluid is fed to the working piston. The valve (20) has a movable separating piston (14) separating a hydraulic chamber (13) tightly from a gas chamber (17) filled with compressed gas. The separating piston (14) is acted on by the compressed gas. The working piston at the end of an adjusting movement brings about the closing of the valve (20) and opening of a discharge valve. The hydraulic fluid is guided, with open discharge valve, from the working piston into a return chamber (24).
