  • Functional and anatomical delivery simulator
    Patent number: 7651332
    Abstract: A delivery simulator may include a fetal system comprising at least a fetal head. The fetal system may be configured to simulate the behavior of at least one part of a fetus, a maternal system configured to simulate the behavior of at least one part of a mother's body interacting with the fetus, and a device for establishing the position of at least one point of the fetal head. The device may include at least one marker element positioned on the fetal head, and at least one fixed element linked to said marker element and placed at a distance from the fetal head.
    Type: Grant

  • Device for the counting of chip cards contained in a batch
    Patent number: 5163077
    Abstract: In order to count chip cards when they are manufactured, it is chosen to present these chip cards in lots, edgewise, in the field of an X-radiation. A measurement is made of the differential image of attenuation of the X-radiation due to the passage of this X-radiation, on the one hand through the plastic card structure, which is relatively transparent to the X-radiation, and on the other hand through the metallic connection parts of the chips. In the radiological absorption image obtained, a count is made of the number of transitions of the absorption signal. It is shown that the reliability of the counting is greatly improved, as is the security of manipulation.
