Abstract: Electrical medical devices and methods are disclosed for the therapeutic treatment of cells and/or tissue in a living body. The electrical medical devices and methods of the invention are useful in the therapeutic treatment of cells and/or tissue which require a ''''bioelectrical signal'''' to artificially stimulate healing of the cells and/or tissue. The devices and methods of the invention provide for the generation of an undulating electrical signal having a wave-form whose rise time differs from its fall time which when coupled to the living body induces currents at the tissue level which currents in turn produce a voltage at the tissue level that is bipolar with the amplitude and frequency components of one polarity thereof being different from those of the opposite polarity thereof; the voltage that is bipolar effecting the bioelectrical signal at the cellular or tissue level for artificially stimulating healing of the cells and/or tissue.

Abstract: An immersion type battery using seawater as electrolyte and having metallic anodes and metal halide cathodes is enclosed in a container. The container is supplied with a valve which in abovesurface conditions closes and seals the battery against entry of fluids to the battery compartment. However, when the battery is allowed to fall into water of unrestricted depth, the valve, at a predetermined pressure, will open, allowing water to infiltrate the battery and thus activate it. The opening of the valve is controlled by a valve retaining means, calibrated to permit the opening of the valve at the required pressure. The valve retaining means also prevents the valve from subsequent reclosure regardless of shock or changes in ambient pressures.

Abstract: A battery sealant carrier is impregnated with adhesive patches each of which is in the form of a closed loop. The surfaces of the adhesive patches rise above the surfaces of the carrier on at least one and preferably both sides of the carrier. The patches are produced by passing the carrier between a pair of applicators, the first of which has a surface that is sufficiently rigid and uncompressible so that it does not deform and the second of which has a surface that is sufficiently elastomeric so that it deforms during adhesive application. Preferably the two applicators apply adhesive to the carrier simultaneously. The adhesive patches applied by the second applicator are preferably applied at a higher viscosity than those applied by the first applicator. Preferably the sealant carrier is also the battery separator material, in which case there is an area of separator material inside each adhesive patch into which the adhesive has not been impregnated; alternatively, the sealant carrier may have a void area inside each adhesive patch, with the void area being provided to receive a piece of battery separator material.

Abstract: A monitor apparatus is disclosed for monitoring electrical stimulation signals due to either natural or artificial electrical stimulation of a body part via a communication link such that the repetition rate of the electrical stimulation signals can be determined. The monitor apparatus comprises the subsystems: a transducer; a communication link or network; and a reciever. The transducer is adapted to sense the electrical stimulation signals generated either naturally or by an electronic organ stimulator, such as an implanted cardiac pacer, and to convert the electrical stimulation signals to audible signals such as tone bursts. These audible tone bursts are then transmitted over a communication link such as the standard telephone network to the receiver located at a remote telephone station, typically a cardiologist''s office. The receiver is adapted to measure the time interval between received tone bursts. The receiver is further adapted to display or indicate to an observer the time interval between received tone burst. If desired, the receiver can be adapted to indicate directly the repetition rate of the stimulation signals. The information is then utilized by an observer for diagnostic purposes. The monitor apparatus also includes a test means for testing the integrity of the apparatus including the transducer, the communication link and the receiver.

Abstract: A battery has a container consisting of an upper portion and a lower portion sealed together in any convenient manner. The cover may be separate from, or integrally constructed with, the upper portion of the container. Single cell or multicell as well as primary or secondary batteries may be so constructed. In multicell batteries the intercell strap connectors extend through the partitions of the cell compartments, preferably as molded inserts in the partitions. Preferably the ends of the intercell strap connectors are anchored by the container. Strap connectors may extend from end cells through the container as inserts molded therein to function as terminals.

Abstract: An apparatus for monitoring a rectifier leg which forms a part of a system that is being supplied with electrical power from an external circuit. The rectifier leg has at least first and second series connected rectifier cells. The monitor apparatus includes a source of control power for supplying electrical power to the monitor apparatus as well as to the rectifier leg. The monitor apparatus provides an indication of open and short circuit failure of the rectifier cells while they are in use in the system and being supplied with electrical power from the external circuit or while they are being supplied with electrical power solely by external circuit or while they are being supplied with electrical power solely by the source of control power of the monitor apparatus.
