PURPOSE:To eliminate superfluous processing and to measure eccentricity without errors by correcting predicted load by the DC component which does not depend on the rotating angular frequency of a roll, among the results of high- speed Fourier transform. CONSTITUTION:The basic component, second-order higher harmonic wave component - of the fluctuations of rolling load are derived with the rotating...

(57) The invention relates to a method for cutting a plant material for the purpose of plant propagation, especially micropropagation, in which method the cutting is carried out by using a laser beam.

A package holder (1), for instance in an installation for the production of a warp, according to which a package (3) with yarn (4) wound thereon is pushed axially onto the holder (1), where it is retained while the yarn (4) is being unwound from the package. The holder (1) consists of a base member (7) having a spring-biased flap (9) which is pivoted outwards by the spring to a position wherein it...

The implant (13) comprises an optic part (14) consisting essentially of a divergent lens with thick edges (16) and a haptic part comprising two elastic loops (15) for support inside the eye and extending on both sides of the optic part, in the same diametral direction (50), from two points on the optic part which are respectively and diametrally opposed. A connection zone (19) situated outside the...

An electrosurgical tool (10) comprises a retractable cutting blade (34) movable along a linear cutting path and an electrical energy supply source (26) which communicates electrical energy (e.g. radio frequency energy) through the cutting blade (34) and to tissue adjacent the cutting blade. During surgical procedures the electrosurgical cutting device (10) is able to simultaneously cut tissue and ...

A surgical instrument assembly for use in snare cauterization operations comprises a tubular sheath member, a metallic cauterization loop, and a metal wire operatively connected to the loop, the wire passing longitudinally through the sheath. An electrical supply is operatively connectable to the wire for feeding an electrical current to the loop via the wire, while a manually actuatable shifter i...

Systems for ablating tissue control radiofrequency power to an ablation electrode (16) by relying upon actual phase sensitive power measurements (72), unaffected by phase shifts between radiofrequency voltage and current. The systems also detect these phase differences (70), if they develop and integrate this factor (30) in making their control decisions.
