Patent number: 9743521Abstract: A light-emitting module (3a-c; 23; 26; 33a-c) comprising a plurality of light-sources (12a-e; 27a-h) arranged in at least a first and a second column (18a-b; 28a-c) arranged side by side and extending along a first direction of extension (X1) of the light-emitting module (3a-c; 23; 26; 33a-c); and a plurality of connector terminal pairs (13a-b, 14a-b, 15a-b, 16a-b 17a-b), each being electrically connected to a corresponding one of the light-sources (3a-c; 23; 26; 33a-c) for enabling supply of electrical power thereto. Each connector terminal pair (13a-b, 14a-b, 15a-b, 16a-b 17a-b) comprises a first connector terminal (13a, 14a, 15a, 16a 17a) and a second connector terminal (13b, 14b, 15b, 16b 17b) being arranged at opposite sides of the light-emitting module (3a-c; 23; 26; 33a-c).Type: GrantFiled: September 10, 2010Date of Patent: August 22, 2017Assignee: PHILIPS LIGHTING HOLDING B.V.Inventors: Ralph Kurt, Cornelis Slob, Marc Andre De Samber, Michael Johan Ferdinand Marie Ter Laak, Gerard Kums, Egbert Lenderink, Marcellus Jacobus Johannes Van Der Lubbe, Mark Eduard Johan Sipkes

Patent number: 9131895Abstract: An electrode configured to provide electrical contact with a subject's skin and includes a conductive layer and a gel layer. The conductive layer spreads current and transmits electrical signals to and/or receives electrical signals from the subject's skin and has a first conductive surface through which electrical signals are transmitted to and/or received from the subject's skin. The first conductive surface is on a side of the conductive layer that faces toward the subject's skin if the electrode is installed on the subject. The gel layer is formed on the same side of the conductive layer as the first conductive surface. The gel layer has a first interface surface that directly contacts the subject's skin if the electrode is installed on the subject, and to conduct electrical signals between the subject's skin and the first conductive surface. The first interface surface has a surface area larger than that of the first conductive surface.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2011Date of Patent: September 15, 2015Assignee: Koninklijke Philips N.V.Inventors: Timon Rutger Grob, Rudolf Maria Jozef Voncken, Antonius Wilhelmus Maria De Laat, Judith Petra Huurdeman, Ronaldus Mathias Hubertus Steijvers, Lucas Johannes Anna Maria Beckers, Michael Johan Ferdinand Marie Ter Laak, Steven Ernest Franklin, Sean Scott Wheelhouse

Patent number: 8718226Abstract: A tiled detector assembly (1000) and a method for making a tiled radiation detector (1000) is described. The innovative feature of this method is that the xyz misalignment of the detector tiles (304, 304?), the origin of various image artifacts, can be significantly reduced by accurate sizing and alignment of the detector tiles (304, 304?). Consequently, image quality, yield and reliability of as-produced tiled radiation detectors are considerably improved.Type: GrantFiled: November 13, 2009Date of Patent: May 6, 2014Assignee: TrixellInventors: Jorrit Jorritsma, Tiemen Poorter, Gerardus Franciscus Cornelis Maria Lijten, Johannes H. M. Van Roosmalen, Martinus Maria Sens, Timon Rutger Grob, Michael Johan Ferdinand Marie Ter Laak
