Abstract: It consists of a system for palpation of the rectal face of the prostate that transforms the information collected into objective, reproducible and useful information. The system makes it possible to identify areas of high rigidity reaching the entire peripheral area, transforming a diagnostic maneuver for prostate cancer into an objective one, which until now has been subjective and unreliable. All this in a short space of time, carried out in a less aggressive and more objective way than rectal examination. The device consists of a manual electronic instrument with a handle (1) and a scanning rod (3), which includes at least two concentric force/pressure sensors of different heights, as well as an ultrasonic imaging system which, through means of connection to external devices for analysis/control, allows the data obtained to be analyzed and the anatomy of the prostate being analyzed to be visualized in real time.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for measuring an operating variable, to be fitted onto a tyre, comprising: an electronic circuit distributed over a first face of an electronic board and comprising a sensor; a protective housing at least partially covering the electronic circuit; and at least one first antenna wire having one end galvanically connected to the electronic circuit and integrally extending so as to project laterally from the housing; According to the invention, the housing comprises a lateral portion which projects substantially tangentially to a proximal end portion of the first wire in accordance with the generatrix of said first wire.

Abstract: A pressure measuring device for a tyre includes an electronic circuit distributed over a first face and a second face of an electronic board and comprising a pressure sensor mounted on the first face of said electronic board; an antenna connected to the electronic circuit; a first housing part covering the first face such that together they delimit a first volume, and comprising channels fluidically connecting the first volume to the outside; a second housing part covering the second face such that together they delimit a second volume, and having a base for resting against an inner surface of a tread of the tyre, the second housing part being arranged such that the antenna projects laterally with respect to said second housing part and the housing has a centre of gravity located in the second volume spaced apart from the electronic board.
