In accordance with the present invention, a distal protection and embolic material retrieval device with improved apposition to both large and small vessel walls of varying geometries for enhancing the filtering of embolic material during intravascular procedures while allowing for the passage of blood is provided. The device includes a filter basket designed to maximize apposition of the filtering portion to that of the vessel wall and may include struts which provide circumferential support to the filtering membrane and thereby minimizing or eliminating in-folding of the filter basket. Thin film materials may also be utilized for the filtering membrane of the filter basket. In addition one can incorporate biological and/or pharmaceutical agents in combination with the present invention.

A compact automatic valve has a cylindrical body with a sleeve inserted to move in the cylindrical body in the axial direction. A first diaphragm, having an annular joint section and an annular protrusion arranged in the outer circumferential section, is joined to one end of the sleeve. A second diaphragm, having an annular joint section and an annular protrusion arranged in the outer circumferential section, is joined to the other end of the sleeve. A first cylindrical diaphragm presser, joined to one end of the cylindrical body, presses the annular protrusion of the first diaphragm and a second cylindrical diaphragm presser, joined to the other end of the cylindrical body, presses the annular protrusion of the second diaphragm. Both the first cylindrical diaphragm presser and the second cylindrical diaphragm presser have a fluid communicating port. A valve member, which is contacted with and separated from the lower end of the sleeve, is arranged at the center of the bottom of the second cylindrical diaphragm presser and alternatively contacts with or separates from the lower end of the sleeve as the sleeve moves axially to close or open the valve. A pair of fluid supply ports respectively communicate with an upper and a lower clearance formed by the cylindrical body, diaphragms and sleeve.

A cam shaft phase setter including a control valve for controlling the feeding and draining of a hydraulic fluid into and out of a pressure chamber which serves to adjust the rotational angular position of a cam shaft relative to a crankshaft of an internal combustion engine. The control valve includes a valve housing with an operating port to the pressure chamber and a reservoir port to a reservoir for the fluid. A valve piston is axially adjustable back and forth in the valve housing between a first position and a second position and includes an axial hollow space, a piston inlet for introducing the fluid into the hollow space, and a piston outlet which leads out of the hollow space and is connected to the operating port in the first position of the valve piston and separated from the operating port in the second position of the valve piston. An actuating unit is coupled to the valve piston for axially adjusting the valve piston. A coupling member protrudes through an axially facing closure wall which closes off the valve housing and couples the actuating unit to the valve piston. The valve piston includes a radial widening which is surrounded by a complementarily widened housing portion of the valve housing and to which the fluid can be applied in an axial direction pointing away from the axially facing closure wall in order to generate an axial pressure force. The widening is dimensioned such that the fluid acts on the valve piston with a pressure force of at least substantially equal size in both axial directions, despite the coupling member.

Compact compressors and refrigeration systems that can be used to cool computers, servers, and other electronic equipment. Each compact compressor or refrigeration system includes a compact, substantially enclosed hermitic housing having a simple geometry profile, such as a rectilinear profile, which enables the compact compressor or refrigeration system to be easily inserted within a slot, for example, of an electronic component such as a computer server. In one embodiment, a compact compressor is provided, which includes a motor-compressor unit within the housing, including a stator, a rotor disposed interiorly of the stator, and a compressor mechanism disposed interiorly of the rotor to provide a compact profile. In another embodiment, the housing includes the foregoing compact motor-compressor unit, and further includes a condenser formed within one of the walls of the housing and an evaporator formed within another wall of the housing such that the housing defines a completely contained, compact refrigeration system. Alternatively, in another embodiment, the housing may include only one of the condenser and evaporator, with the other of the condenser and evaporator configured as a modular component which is attached to the housing.

A plasma processing system and method provide an internal coil in a vacuum chamber for maintaining a high density plasma therein in a manner that may have a less restrictive requirement on metal flux shielding than when the shield protects a dielectric window. The shield also shields the coil from plasma heat load. The coil need not be actively cooled. Some metal is allowed to pass through the shield and deposit on the coil. This leads to a thinner shield with less complicated slots than for shields in external coil configurations. Good RF transparency of the shield is a result of the much simpler shield shape. The coil is not sputtered and is thus not consumable. The coil is enclosed in a small conductive space, reducing its inductance, resulting in reduced coil current and voltage, in turn simplifying the design and construction of the tuning network and RF connectors. Stiffeners support the coil and are profiled to avoid formation of conductive paths forming from metal deposits.

A system for processing medical image data stores high information content volumetric (HICV) data reconstructed from different medical imaging devices. Images normally requiring differing image imaging parameters can instead be created by processing of the HICV data, importantly without access to the original reconstruction algorithms or machine. The invention also allows different medical images to be harmonized for ready comparison or according to a desired image sequence for particular diagnostic purpose without any need to rescan the patient or to enforce cumbersome universal protocol standards.
