  • Patent number: 10185834
    Abstract: The present invention relates to the field of information display and information playback on medical fluid management machines, in particular dialysis machines in which there should be a simple and reliable transmission of patient features and machine features to a mobile computer. The present invention is based on the problem of making available to the operating personnel information pertaining to the medical fluid management machine or a treatment to be performed therewith and doing so in a simple and convenient manner such that certain information should be readable only by certain groups of people. In this regard methods and devices have been proposed with which specific graphic codes are generated, encrypted and displayed or applied, these graphic codes being inputable and decodable by a mobile computer.

  • Patent number: 7723934
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for controlling an automatic device for cleaning a surface immersed in liquid which comprises electric motors for driving a chassis along a cleanable surface. The inventive method consists in periodically measuring at least one electrical quantity which makes it possible to obtain the representative value of the resisting torque of at least one driving electric motor (7), in comparing each obtained value with the predetermined threshold representative value of a maximum acceptable value and, when said value is greater than said threshold value for the driving electric motor (7), a procedure known as a protection procedure is started.

  • Publication number: 20070272273
    Abstract: The invention relates to a method for guiding an automatic cleaning device for a surface submerged in a liquid. Changes in the device's inclination are detected; these changes correspond to its passage into a concave junction zone between two submerged surface portions (30 and 31) inclined relative to each other. Upon the condition that at least one change of the device's inclination is detected, a specific cleaning method for the junction zone is begun. The invention extends to a device making it possible to implement this method.

  • Publication number: 20070251032
    Abstract: The invention relates to am immersed surface cleaning device comprising a filtering chamber (6) provided, through a lower rigid wall (8), with at least one liquid inlet (9a, 9b) which has a non-return unit at least one filter (7) remote from each liquid inlet (9a, 9b) in such a way that a solid impurities retaining area (12) is defined and with a hydraulic circuit for forming a liquid flow by pumping means (4). At least one non-return unit comprises an anti-return conduit (20) which extends through the retaining area (12) away from the liquid inlet and whose free end (21) enters said retaining area (12), wherein the conduit is used for preventing at least the passage of impurities in an opposite direction from the retaining area through the liquid inlet at least when said pumping means is unused.
