20100293815 | MIDFOOT INSERT CONSTRUCTION - An article of footwear is provided and includes an outsole structure having a forefoot portion, a heel portion, and a midfoot portion disposed between the forefoot portion and the heel portion. The midfoot portion includes a series of ribs cooperating to define a series of pockets disposed between the forefoot portion and the heel portion. The plurality of pockets include a smaller volume proximate to a longitudinal axis extending through a center of the outsole structure and a greater volume proximate to an outboard, lateral edge and an outboard, medial edge of the article of footwear. | 11-25-2010 |
20140026442 | MIDFOOT INSERT CONSTRUCTION - An outsole structure includes a medial side, a lateral side, and a longitudinal axis. The outsole structure also has a forefoot portion, a heel portion, and a midfoot portion. The midfoot portion defines a recess and an insert received within the recess. The insert includes a base portion, medial wall that projects from the base portion, and a lateral wall that projects from the base portion. The insert additionally includes a first rib that projects from the base portion and that extends between the medial wall and the lateral wall. The insert further includes a second rib that projects from the base portion and that extends between the medial wall and the lateral wall. Moreover, the insert includes at least one pocket that is defined between the base portion, the medial wall, the lateral wall, the first rib, and the second rib. | 01-30-2014 |

20090215782 | Use of PDE-5 Inhibitors for Endothelial Repair of Tissues Impaired by Trauma or Disease - The invention relates generally to neovascularization and endothelial repair of tissues impaired by trauma or disease. Particularly, the invention relates to the function of endothelial progenitor cells in neovascularization and endothelial repair. More particularly, the invention relates to methods and pharmaceutical compositions for the treatment of tissues impaired by trauma or disease. In particular, the present invention relates to the use of a type V phosphodiesterase inhibitor in the preparation of a medicament for the treatment of a condition which is susceptible to the treatment with circulating EPCs wherein the treatment is effected by the proliferation of endothelial progenitor cells. | 08-27-2009 |

20150049521 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR A RECTIFIER OF A SWITCHING CONVERTER - A control device for a rectifier of a switching converter that includes a rectifier with at least one MOS transistor and a control device that is configured to generate a turn on and off signal for the at least one transistor. The control device also includes a measuring circuit to measure the conduction time of the body diode of the at least one transistor during each converter switching half-cycle. The control device is configured to, cycle by cycle: verify if the drain-source voltage of the at least one transistor is greater or less than a voltage threshold, and if the drain-source voltage is greater than the voltage threshold to turn off the at least one transistor, measure the conduction time of the body diode and increase the voltage threshold by a quantity in the next switching cycle. | 02-19-2015 |
20150049522 | CONTROL DEVICE FOR RECTIFIERS OF SWITCHING CONVERTERS - A control device detects zero crossings of a current through a rectifier transistor during plural cycles; generates a turn-on signal of the transistor and inserts a turn-on delay equal to a fixed first quantity from the start time of for each cycle. The control device starts counting consecutive cycles after inserting the turn-on delay; detects whether a zero crossing of the current through the transistor after turning on said transistor has occurred; if no zero crossing is detected before counting a number N of consecutive cycles, decreases the turn-on delay by a fixed second quantity for the next cycle; if a zero crossing is detected, maintains turned on the transistor; if the turn-on delay is smaller than first quantity, increases the turn-on delay o for the next switching cycle; and if the turn-on delay is equal to the first quantity, maintains the turn-on delay for the next switching cycle. | 02-19-2015 |
20150049529 | CONTROL METHOD FOR RECTIFIER OF SWITCHING CONVERTERS - A control device for a transistor of a switching converter rectifier generates a control signal of the transistor and comprises a circuit to measure the conduction time of the body diode of the transistor cycle by cycle. When the conduction time is greater than a first threshold, the off time instant of the transistor is delayed by a first quantity in the next cycles, until the conduction time is less than the first threshold and greater than a second threshold. When the conduction time is between the first and second thresholds, the off time instant is delayed by a fixed second quantity in the next cycles until the conduction time is lower than the second threshold, with the second quantity less than the first quantity. When the conduction time is lower than the second threshold, the off time instant is advanced by the second quantity in the next cycle. | 02-19-2015 |
