12 Best Tips for Finding Carpal Tunnel Relief
Posted by Jessica Hegg on
Searching for the light at the end of the carpal tunnel?
Let us guide the way!
Have you ever experienced pain or numbness in your fingers, wrists, and up to your forearms? If so, you may be developing a case of carpal tunnel.
First, we always recommend that it's best to consult with your doctor to determine a proper regimen, but we've got some valuable tips that will help you find your way to carpal tunnel relief!
1. Relax Grip
Avoid tasks that force you to strain the ligaments and muscles located in your wrist. Writing, typing, and knitting/sewing are activities that you should avoid if you're experiencing pains associated with carpal tunnel.
2. Take Breaks
If your job or daily activities require you to utilize fine motor skills that apply strain, make sure you take breaks throughout the day. Try pausing every 15-20 minutes to stretch and wiggle your fingers.
3. Focus on Arm Placement
This is important if you type at a desk for work. Avoid resting your wrists on a hard surface and keep them at a neutral level, or even to your body.
4. Carpal Tunnel Brace or Compression Sleeve
5. Incorporate Stretching
It is good to stretch out your hands, arms, and wrists periodically throughout the day. Try making a fist then slowly extend your fingers out straight. Repeat and perform on both hands.
6. Use Both Hands
Ok, so I know not everyone is ambidextrous, butttt....if you're able to, try switching it up. Especially when it comes to tasks that require repetitive motions. By giving your dominant hand a break you can lessen the symptoms you are feeling from carpal tunnel
7. Proper Tools
The use of properly sized tools can really have an impact on your discomfort associated with carpal tunnel. Oversized tools or ones that are too small may force you to over compensate the strain in your grip making your wrist, hand, and forearm work harder.
8. Change Positions
9. Strengthen Wrists
10. Achieve Healthy Weight
11. Hot and Cold Therapy
12. Over-the-Counter Medication
Carpal Tunnel 101:
So What is Carpal Tunnel?
Carpal tunnel is characterized by a numbness or tingling located in the hand and arm as result of a pinched nerve.
Symptoms Include...
- Increased pain while moving your hand or wrist that radiates towards forearm.
- Decrease in strength of your thumb.
- Difficulty gripping objects
- Numbness sensation in hand, wrist
- Pain that awakens you while sleeping at night.
Characteristics of Carpal Tunnel:
Most common among those who work with computers or those who consistently utilize fine motor skills
More prevalent in women than men.
Can occur as result of injury, rheumatoid arthritis, diabetes or thyroid disease.
Women who are pregnant run a higher risk
Take Control of Your Carpal Tunnel Treatment
With the growing occurrence of carpal tunnel, we really shouldn't downplay the signs and symptoms. It's easier to find relief when you're proactive. Make the steps to relieve pain and take advantage of specially designed carpal tunnel braces and compression sleeves for ultimate protection. When symptoms become unbearable the condition becomes more difficult to treat and sometimes the only remaining solution is surgery.

Fall asleep fast

Insomnia is a problem that many of us face on a daily, or rather nightly basis. Temporary solutions like sleep masks, ear plugs, and white noise machines can help sometimes, but don't create lasting change. Dr. Andrew Weil, a Harvard trained medical doctor with a focus on holistic health, believes getting the best sleep ever is as simple as breathing in and breathing out. He has popularized the 4-7-8 breath that will help you fall a sleep in 60 seconds or less.

The Big Yam has lately been obsessed with watching episodes of that old BBC Series, Blue Planet on Netflix. It's his go-to, and we're willing to indulge him (during his allotted TV/iPad time, of course - i.e., only on weekends) because the worst thing that happens is he's learning a s**t tonne about rando ocean creatures. As in the video below, where he recites a little lecture on the migration habits of Atlantic lobsters, which he has pulled word for word from the series. He's also watched so much of it, that he's picked up little David Attenborough-isms, which you can hear in the way he says stuff like "Atlantic lobster" in a stuffy, Brit voice.
Other choice Blue Planet-derived Big Yam funnies: he's been going around talking about how "blue whales don't have butts!" "crabs don't have butts!" but his most consistent assertion in his treatise on the existence of butt-less sea creatures has been "lobsters don't have butts!" Cue to the other night, when he was nattering on about lobsters not having butts, lets out a GIANT fart, gives some side-eye, smirks, and says, "I guess lobsters DO have butts."
We're a little unsure how to mediate his absorption of the amoral vicissitudes of underwater life. He's watching a lot of carnal violence and coitus (shrimp and coral coitus, but still) and we're not sure whether it should be addressed. Last night, he was watching a segment where an orca is shown in stunning slow-motion detail, eating a grey whale baby (technically known as a "calf" - we are ALL LEARNING THINGS). In a direct parroting of David Attenborough's narration (though far removed from DA's sombre tone), the Big Yam said, "The killer whale has gotten its prize!" The Dotytron tried to insert some empathy for the plight of the grey whale baby, "Yes, but the killer whale is eating the grey whale calf. It's dead now." The Big Yam: "The grey whale did not get its prize." LOL.
Low key times at Casa Dotytron & Lagerfeld high this weekend. Our friend A is visiting from NYC so the Dotytron went to his show on Friday night, chilled with him again on Saturday, and then we had our friends B & G over on Saturday night for dinner. Sunday I took the Big Yam with me out and about while the Dotytron treated Momma D to her birthday present - which was a special breakfast with the babies followed by watching a week's worth of Coronation Street with her. The Big Yam and I had a pretty fun day - we helped do the Earth Day clean-up at our local park, we went to swimming lessons (where he was a giant pill and I had to be stern with him while all the other kids in the change room averted their eyes and cowered in fear), then we rode the rails (streetcar and subway) to do some errands downtown.
The wind rustling in the background and the eerie creak of the swings, in addition to the babies (save for the Quincess' last-minute animation) disaffected demeanour is so funny to me. It's like a Terrence Malick film.
The Quincess is a mischievous little Bonobo monkey. Periodically, when we leave the Wonder Twins to do their baby scrum on the floor and run wild while we're in the kitchen cooking or something, we'll hear Lindsay unleash a very girlish, high-pitched wail/scream, which generally means that the Quincess has back-arched his way over to Lindsay and ripped the toy he was playing with out of his hands. It's so funny because Lindsay is so much bigger than Quincess, but somehow, Quincess is surprisingly strong and Lindsay's always getting owned. Lindsay also has a very classic "dismayed" face, that's kind of like classic exaggerated clown, which makes his anguish all the more laughable. Then Quincess will give us a very bland, serious, look and basically, the long and short of it is: I could watch the Wonder Twins show all day.
I've all but finalized the haggling for the appliances for the kitchen and have almost finished winnowing down the haggling for the bathroom/kitchen fixtures. I realize I'm not being very strategic about the process. I'm not viewing Lil' Ugmo with the jaundiced eye of someone who only sees their house as an asset. I doubt that future potential buyers would care as much about a 36" Wolf range, but I've lived SO LONG without a proper gas stove and I am not planning on moving in the next, say, 10 years, so I'm going to TREAT MYSELF. My hot dog and KD game (which is going to be most of what Friday Night Takeout Night will consist of come 3-kids-in-childcare times in September) is going to be NEXT LEVEL.
I will say it has been nice to sit and stew over a kitchen/bath remodel for the almost-five-years we've been living here. My tastes have changed over that time frame and I've lived in the house and have a better vision of what I want Lil' Ugmo's best self to be. A friend was curious about what the original bathroom sink was going to be. For those of you with the coin to spend, I would encourage you to get the Duravit Vero:
My preciousssssss.
With some brass fixtures like this picture? GET OUTTA HERE.
So beautiful. Yeah, I get it. It's a f**king sink. But like the our Paleolithic ancestors in the caves of Lascaux, I believe that your home should be beautiful. A space that reflects you. Listen, we are all stardust, so why not make our brief time in the corporeal realm one in which we spit our Sensodyne toothpaste into a beautiful wall-mounted sink with brass fixtures?
Speaking of being stardust, You Are Stardust is a recent picture book that we borrowed from the library, one that I consider worth owning. Canadian made, beautifully illustrated with wonderfully tactile DIORAMAS, this book talks about how we are all connected by our stardust ancestry. It's beautiful, poetic, and inspires the reader to situate themselves on a continuum that encompasses dinosaurs, pollen, our oceanic roots, and our future in the stars. The cadence of the text is thought provoking, informative, and rhythmically comforting. I highly recommend.
Last night I took Dr. Rei out for her birthday. My friend B's restaurant, Porzia, does a Monday $33 prix fixe that is pretty good value and a whole heap of food. You each get an appetizer, then you share a pasta, and you each get a main. Half priced bottles of wine, too, although we didn't avail ourselves of that. We also went a bit buck and ordered an extra vegetable dish, and a hamachi crudo (as I've said before, and I'll undoubtedly say again, I love me a crudo). It was A LOT of food. But it was delicious. My friend B is, as Dr. Rei so eloquently put it, a bit of a babe show:
He's always been super-nice, decent, and has good taste in 'chunes. Nuff said. Hard to find in the cooking world, which runs thick with weirdos, pumped up machismo, and small minds (more often than not, that dizzying cocktail in one person). Also, total babeshow. So is his wife.
I didn't take any photos (for once), because I was too busy catching up with one of my favorite people in the world.

Originally previewed back in December, the Star Wars x adidas Originals lineup for Spring/Summer 2011 begins to see a release at select retailers. Amongst the highlights of the line is this new take on the Stan Smith 80s, done up in mid top form with a clean cut base. Take on a mostly red colorway, the kicks find their inspiration from the Imperial Guard characters in the Star Wars franchise, most evidently seen on the tongue stamp and heel accenting. For those interested, they are now available at Schuh-You.

There's no reason not to install a copy of ALv2 and the NOTICE file in the root folder of an install. That way the NOTICE is the one that applies to the version that is installed. (OpenOffice.org already did this with the THIRDPARTYLICENSEREADME.html file.) [ ... ] 4) Statement that notices for other 3rd party components can be found int he the NOTICE file, and link to that 5) The credits link, if we want to maintain that If we were producing a Java library, we would have the LICENSE and NOTICE in the root of the tar file we distribute. So it would be prominent. I think we should also give prominence to these items in the about box. So in total, maybe something like: ========= Copyright © 2011 Apache Software Foundation.

Yesterday, Travi$ Scott announced a mysterious date drop via Twitter, and today he disclosed the meaning behind it. In a post-set interview with Hot 97 at Summer Jam, the Houston artist reveals that he is releasing the first single "3500" from his debut album Rodeo on Monday, June 8. However, in the conversation, he had implied that the drop will encompass more than just the one track, but has not specified what exactly. Scott also shared that the album is 99% done and is due before the fall. We'll keep you updated.

Weather Forecasting:
Important Issues on Automated Weather Processing System Need Resolution
IMTEC-93-12BR: Published: Jan 6, 1993. Publicly Released: Feb 8, 1993.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-6253
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO reviewed the National Weather Service's (NWS) acquisition of the Advanced Weather Interactive Processing System (AWIPS), focusing on: (1) how effectively the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) analyzed and defined its system requirements; (2) key risks associated with the acquisition; and (3) whether any risks warranted delay of the contract award.
GAO found that: (1) NOAA effectively involved users in analysis and definition of AWIPS requirements; (2) a diverse cross section of NWS users defined AWIPS baseline and functional requirements; (3) NOAA has continued to refine AWIPS functional and interface requirements and faces significant risks, since the roles and responsibilities of the contractor and government are not clear; (4) other risks include a lack of specific system portability requirements, security requirement definitions, and a configuration management plan; and (5) failure to resolve each risk before AWIPS software development begins could cause cost increases, schedule delays, and performance problems.
Recommendation for Executive Action
Status: Closed - Implemented
Comments: Actions were completed on one of the six specific components of GAO's recommendation--a configuration management plan was developed. However, the other five components were still outstanding issues prior to the AWIPS program restructuring that occurred due to managerial and technical problems. A new AWIPS contract was signed in August 1995 to reflect this restructuring. GAO closed this recommendation because the restructuring changed the AWIPS program from the time that it was evaluated and this recommendation was made in late 1992.
Recommendation: To help ensure the successful development of AWIPS and minimize the risk of cost and schedule growth, the Secretary of Commerce should ensure that the actions planned by the NOAA Systems Program Office adequately resolve the outstanding issues described in this report before the AWIPS design is approved and significant software development begins.

Musician Acts As Spirit, Then Dies At Piano
A 79-year-old jazz musician making her theater debut as a spirit passing into heaven played her last note and died on stage of an apparent heart attack.
Deedie Ball performed in the play, then collapsed at the piano while playing a musical introduction for the next act.
"It was the most beautiful death I've ever seen," said Karen Hammon, a friend in the audience Friday night.
"It seemed like a perfect way for a musician to be able to leave: doing what they love to do on stage in front of a piano."
Ball performed in an all-female local broadcast show in the 1940s and '50s, played on the Kay Starr radio show as a soloist, performed in clubs, wrote songs and traveled the world with jazz groups.

Question about Creative Labs MegaWorks THX 650 Computer Speakers
I had a power outage in the middle of the night as clocks were all off by a couple of hours. May have been a lightening strike as weather was bad. Next day the THX would not switch on. The fuse appears to be good. I read where others have found a little yellow capacitor sitting over the power leads to be the culprit. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

Influence of fluid volume variations on the calculated value of the left ventricular mass measured by echocardiogram in patients submitted to hemodialysis
Data de publicação2003-01-01
Direito de acesso
MetadadosExibir registro completo
The left ventricular mass (LVM) measurement is of major importance for renal patients, as ventricular hypertrophy is an important prognostic index. The echo-cardiogram of the ventricular mass is larger before than it is after hemodialysis, which can confuse data interpretation. The aim of this work is to study the influence of alterations in fluid volume on the variations in measurements of ventricular mass observed during the course of a hemodialysis. Sixteen patients with chronic renal insufficiency in hemodialysis were evaluated at the Dialysis Unit of the University Hospital-UNESP, Botucatu, São Paulo State. The left ventricular mass was calculated from echocardiograms taken before and after hemodialysis and simultaneous ultra-filtration (12 patients: UF GROUP) and before and after hemodialysis isovolemic phase with sequential ultra-filtration (10 patients: ISO GROUP). Six of these patients were submitted to measurements of left ventricular mass before and after hemodialysis in both isovolemic and simultaneous ultra-filtration procedures. In the UF group, there was significant reduction in the following parameters before and after dialysis: diastolic diameter from 54.0 +/- 6.0 mm to 45.6 +/- 7.6 mm; left ventricular mass from 342 +/- 114 g to 265 +/- 117 g; and its respective index (IMVE) from 214 +/- 68 g/m(2) to 168 +/- 71 g/m(2). The ISO group showed no statistically significant variation. The behavior of the variables of six patients submitted to both observations confirm these results. In conclusion, the variations in echocardiogram measurements of the left ventricular mass relating to hemodialysis appear to be induced by alterations of the volemic condition.

Recent Tutoring Session Reviews
"We spent our session reviewing her algebra exam and going over any concepts that she may have forgotten or had confused in her work. We spent a considerable amount of time reviewing the quadratic equation and ways to remember it. We identified the variables needed for the quadratic equation when the function is placed in the standard form of a quadratic equation and practiced converting given functions to this form. Graphing was also a concept that we spent a considerable time reviewing as well as graphing transformations. We practiced solving equations for the given variable, identifying the vertex, and finding points for graphing. In reviewing graphing quadratics and their functions, we also practiced square roots, factoring, FOILing, and checking her work. She worked really hard and knew exactly where she made mistakes on her exam. We discussed going to her teacher to retake part of the exam or at least get some points returned back to her once she explained her work. I asked her to keep track of any areas on her homework that she may find difficult or confusing so we can review them next time. She seems to care more about her algebra work, and she improving in her attention and memorization skills."
"This session, we discussed two extremely large topics: energy and rotation. We began with an explanation about energy. We listed out the types of energy including kinetic energy, potential energy, and elastic potential energy. We wrote out equations for each of them, and made flashcards for them. We said that energy is always conserved, so that the initial total amount of energy you have is equal to the final amount of energy you have. We then wrote down a long equation relating the initial and final amounts of potential, kinetic, and elastic potential energy of a system. We then moved onto the definition of work. We then moved on to how you use energy to do a problem. We did a problem in which a box was being pushed by a force and we analyzed it via our method for forces, and then using energy. I stated that either way we would get the right answer, but that most commonly, it is easier to do questions with an approach of analyzing the energy states at different points in the system. We did a complicated problem involving children and sleds and hills that was made a lot easier by using energy. We also did a problem where you can tell how quickly a pendulum is swinging at the bottom of its swing using energy. We then moved onto the topic of rotation. We said that with rotation the acceleration is always pointing towards the center of rotation, and because the direction is always changing even though tangential velocity may be constant, it does not mean that the centripetal acceleration is zero. We talked more about the tangential velocity and that is always perpendicular to the radius from the object to the center of rotation. We reviewed our seven step process again and said that if you determine that if you have a rotation problem you set you sum of the forces equal to mass times the centripetal acceleration, instead of mass times the linear acceleration. We stated that otherwise our method is exactly the same. We did a couple of problems together including one problem about a whistle being swung around a string. I again assigned the student homework problems, this time which were a bit more difficult: one energy problem, one rotation problem, and then a difficult rotation problem. We made sure that we had created all of the necessary flashcards for the equations learned in this session and ended it there. A fine class."
"Today was my first meeting with the student. We met at his home and I was able to introduce myself to his family and begin our session. We began by looking through his textbook to discover what topics he and his classmates have covered as well as what will be coming in the future. Currently, he is working through Chapter 7. He expressed that he feels he is struggling with stoichiometry and unit conversion and that equations can be tough for him because his teacher does not give the students a "cheat sheet" to use during tests and quizzes. We made plans to work on equations so that he can be comfortable enough with them that he will know them by heart when the tests/quizzes come. We proceeded to review chapter 7, going over chemical structures, formulas, and nomenclature. He expressed feeling much more confident in his ability to work through the problems at the conclusion of our session. I showed him where in the book he can find more practice problems to work through that cover the material we worked on today. He starts school again this coming Monday and we made plans to meet again next Saturday."

Political Psychology by Jon Elster
Book DescriptionThis provocative new textbook takes up and develops the themes of rationality and irrationality in Jon Elster's earlier work. Its purposes are threefold. First, Elster shows how belief and preference formation in the realm of politics are shaped by social and political institutions. Second, he argues for an important distinction in the social sciences between mechanisms and theories. Third, he illustrates those general principles of political psychology through readings of three outstanding political psychologists: the French classical historian, Paul Veyne; the Soviet dissident writer, Alexander Zinoviev; the great French political theorist, Alexis de Tocqueville.

Most dentists will agree that the tooth crown is at the heart of general dentistry. They've all studied dental crowns in dental school, and some have done their best work replacing a missing tooth and saving the rest.
Research has given them the wherewithal to achieve virtually ideal restorations. They are natural looking, comfortable and stable in the moist environment of the mouth. Cosmetic dentistry professionals are better equipped now more than ever to build strong, long-lasting and cosmetically superior dental crowns.
A crown (or cap) is a restoration placed over broken teeth or a cracked tooth that cannot sustain a conventional filling. By covering the biting surfaces and sides of the tooth, a dental crown strengthens the damaged tooth by binding together the remaining structures. There are basically three kinds of full-crown restorations that can be placed by your cosmetic dentist, each with pros and cons, depending on your situation.
A gold crown or metal alloy crowns have the longest track record for durability, but some people object to the look of metal.
A full porcelain crown - and its new ceramic cousin - looks wonderful and fits well; however, porcelain crowns are usually best on front teeth where stress is not so great.
Porcelain-fused-to-metal dental crowns are our loyal work-horses for single-tooth restoration - they're very strong.
There are elements of finesse in the creation of any crown. The fit is the thing. The teeth must be prepared with opposing teeth in mind so a good bite won't go bad after the crown is placed. The fit must accommodate adjacent teeth, too. And the "margin," the part of the crown nearest the gum, must fit smoothly to protect the health of gum tissue.
And all this effort is to one end: to save a tooth.
Maybe the reason we find an eight-year-old's gapped teeth smile so adorable is...we know it's not permanent. Soon the grown-up teeth will be poking through, clean and new. All part of the mouth's natural evolution.
It's not often that nature gives us a second chance, but when it comes to teeth it does just that. For many children it can be a wake-up call to start taking dental hygiene seriously. As the old saying goes, "God gives you two sets of teeth, but you have to buy the third."
It may be time though to change that outdated piece of wisdom to: "Teeth are like friends...ignore them and their needs and they'll go away. Be kind to them and they'll stick with you forever."
That's why regular hygiene appointments and a gum disease examination are so important. Barring injury, there's simply no reason why most of us should be missing teeth as we grow older. Call it a "10,000 smile checkup," insuring all your parts are in good working order.
Once your cosmetic dentist knows that your teeth are healthy and the gums are sound, he or she can do a little restorative dentistry to evolve your smile to an even higher level. Things like dental bonding to close the gaps…or invisible dental crowns or veneers for front teeth…even teeth bleaching for a truly dazzling and beautiful smile.
Give your cosmetic dentistry professional a call. He or she can help you see to it that your mouth does the job it was intended to for a lifetime. And look drop-dead sensational at the same time!

Did you know that healthcare represents roughly one-sixth of the American economy? Meetings, held in hotels and other venues, are a critical part of the implementation of industry standards as well as the education and training of the industry's practitioners. For those who pursue meetings and groups from the medical, healthcare, and pharmaceutical market, MeetingsNet's recent article "New Research Reveals What Matters Most to Medical Meeting Managers" sheds light on these meetings.
Topics: SMMP, Third Party Planners, Advanced Researcher Profiles, Training, Insight, Meetings and Events, medical, Pharma, Health Care
Jan 21, 2014 1:35:00 PM
We spoke last week about Strategic Meetings Management Programs and why they might be making your life as an event professional harder. Well now that we've revealed the complications SMMPs pose, let's take a moment to establish a game plan for working with organizations using SMMPs. How can you get over the SMMP hurdle and still contribute to a successful, exciting corporate event?
Selling to an organization with an SMMP in place is a different path than the one normally taken. You have to realize there are several layers of decision makers before you "get" to the planner booking the meeting. You may encounter the person managing the SMMP, any number of contract people, third parties (if involved), internal stakeholders, procurement approvers, and more! You need information to determine whether it is worth your while to pursue the account from a volume perspective (in other words, is there enough volume to justify accommodating the extra requirements?).
Topics: SMMP
Jan 8, 2014 10:00:00 AM
Maybe you worked with an organization that had an SMMP in place, or perhaps you are an event professional and want to understand why some meeting planners you work with can sometimes be so demanding and nitpicky. Either way, Strategic Meetings Management Programs define the rules and regulations that organizations' meeting planners must follow when managing corporate events. They regulate event spending, volume, standards, suppliers, risk mitigation, services, cost savings and more… And event planners and vendors must follow all of the rules.
If you are involved in corporate event group business, listen up! More than half of most corporate groups have begun implementing some form of SMMP regulation -- it is not just a hot trend! SMMP is now an established stronghold in corporate America and if you want a piece of the corporate meetings business, you need to understand them or risk being left behind.

The subject of the invention is a traveling-wave piezoelectric motor comprising at least one stator, two groups of piezoelectric elements consisting of ceramic rods polarized independently of one another, arranged perpendicularly to the stator, that is to say parallel to the axis of the motor, distributed over the stator, in permanent contact with the stator and excited by an alternating current with a phase shift of π/2 between the groups so as to generate a deformation in the form of a traveling wave on the surface of the stator, and at least one rotor in the form of a disk retained elastically in contact with the stator for the rotational driving thereof by the traveling wave generated on the stator.
Such a piezoelectric motor is known from document WO 95/05 682.
This motor comprises two rotors in the form of disks keyed onto a shaft and a double-stator drive system mounted between the rotors and comprising a first annular stator for driving one of the rotors and a second annular stator for driving the second rotor. The stators are linked together by piezoelectric rods with dual polarization, consisting of two piezoelectric rods cemented in opposition of polarity by one of their ends or by a single rod polarized in both directions with the help of a single electrode, of annular shape arranged at the middle thereof. These rods are excited by an alternating current and organized into two groups, one vibrating in phase quadrature with the other so as to produce the two standing waves required in making up a traveling wave which, transmitted to the stators, drives the rotors in rotation.
A spread in the resonant frequency of the rods of a few hertz, and due to a difference in the length of the rods, gives rise to a considerable phase spread between the waves generated. But, all the rods of a group have to vibrate in phase in order to participate in concert in setting up the traveling wave.
The known solutions to this problem are to pair up the rods, this being expensive and ill-suited to mass production, or to crop or tailor them very accurately, this also giving rise to an oncost. Furthermore, these two means are limited by the accuracy of machining.
Another solution would be to compress the rods. Thus, it has been noted that their compression makes it possible considerably to limit the spread in the resonant frequencies.
In the motor according to document WO 95/05 682, the force applied to the rods is however related directly to that applied to the rotor. But, the force which needs to be applied between rotor and stator is around ten times less than that necessary to compress the rods effectively. A compromise must therefore be made in regard to these two forces which have substantially different requirements.
Means of prestressing the piezoelectric elements are used in the piezoelectric motors described in documents FR 2 715 780 and EP 552 754 A1 with a different purpose, this purpose being that the piezoelectric elements should be used in compression only, these elements being stronger in compression than in tension.
These prestressing means cannot however be applied in a simple manner to the motor of document WO 95/05 682.
Additionally, the purpose of the invention is to modify the motor according to document WO 95/05 682 in such a way that the piezoelectric rods may be compressed under a force large enough to limit the spread in the resonant frequencies, although without the rotor being made to bear too heavily against the stator.
This purpose is achieved by the piezoelectric motor according to the invention, wherein the stator is in the form of a wheel consisting of a peripheral annulus over which the piezoelectric elements are distributed, of a central hub and of linking arms distributed regularly between the peripheral annulus and the hub and intended to transmit an axial pressure exerted on the hub to the annulus and thus to the piezoelectric elements, so as to limit the spread in the resonant frequency of the piezoelectric elements, these arms furthermore allowing the circulation over the peripheral annulus of a traveling wave, the axial pressure applied by means of pressure means to the hub in order to compress the piezoelectric elements being independent of the means retaining the rotor elastically in contact against the stator.
The stator produced in this way makes it possible to compress the rods under a force which is independent of that applied to the rotor. It therefore makes it possible to compress them with a force large enough to limit the spread in the resonant frequencies.
A motor produced with the stator according to the invention possesses a quality factor, also referred to as the overvoltage factor, five times greater than that of a motor produced according to the prior art.
Moreover, the pieces of the motor, in particular the stator, are simple to produce industrially.
The stator can be simplified in the extreme, for greater ease of manufacture during industrial production, by making the holes by drilling and cutting, the jointing spokes then being formed by the material between the holes.
The appended drawing represents an embodiment of the invention.
FIG. 1 represents a top view of the stator of the present invention.
FIG. 2 represents a transverse sectional view of the stator taken along view line II of FIG. 1.
FIG. 3 represents a transverse sectional view of the stator taken along view line III of FIG. 1.
FIG. 4 represents an axial sectional view of an embodiment of the piezoelectric motor according to the invention.
FIG. 5 represents a top view of an alternative embodiment of the stator of the present invention.
FIG. 6 represents a transverse sectional view of the alternative embodiment of the stator taken along view line VI of FIG. 5.
FIG. 7 represents a transverse sectional view of the alternative embodiment of the stator taken along view line VII of FIG. 5.
The stator 1 represented in FIG. 1 consists of a peripheral annulus 1a and a hub 1b which are linked together by radial arms 1c distributed uniformly over the whole of the periphery. These arms 1c have a width which is merely a fraction of their thickness. In the example represented, the width/thickness ratio is around 1/5. The stator is made in one piece.
When loaded along the axis of their largest thickness, the spokes 1c of the stator 1 can transmit a stress applied to the hub 1b to the peripheral annulus 1a. Since the spokes are entirely free to be twisted in their smallest thickness, they allow the propagation of a traveling flexional wave in the peripheral annulus and therefore do not hinder the oscillations of the contact surface formed by the annulus 1a.
The arms 1c could be formed by simple drilling. In this case, the holes separating the arms are round and only in their middle region do the arms exhibit a width which is merely a fraction of their thickness.
The motor represented in part in FIG. 2 comprises two rotors 2, 3 keyed onto a shaft 4 and a double-stator drive system mounted between the rotors 2, 3 and comprising two stators 1 such as that represented in FIG. 1, one being intended for the driving of the rotor 2 and the other for the driving of the rotor 3. The peripheral annuli of the stators 1 are linked together by two groups of six piezoelectric rods 5 with dual polarization, as in the motor according to document WO 95/05682. These rods are polarized in the two directions with the help of a single electrode 6 of annular shape arranged at the middle thereof and they are arranged parallel to the shaft 4 of the motor. The rods 5 are compressed between the stators 1 by means of nuts 7 mounted on a threaded tube 8 passing through the hubs of the stators, these nuts 7 pushing the stators 1 toward one another and therefore compressing the piezoelectric rods 5. The shaft 4 of the rotors 2, 3 passes through the threaded tube 8. The tube 8 and the shaft 4 are rotationally free with respect to one another. The rotors 2, 3 are respectively made to bear elastically against their stator 1 by means of a nut 9, 10 screwed onto the shaft 4 and bringing a spring washer 11, 12 to bear against the rotors 2, 3.
By relatively simple means, the force intended to compress the piezoelectric elements and that intended to bring the rotor to bear against the stator may thus be applied independently of one another.
According to a variant embodiment of the stator, and such as represented in FIG. 3, the radial arms 30c linking the hub 30b to the annulus 30a are formed by the material remaining between circular holes 31 formed by drilling. The arms 30c are substantially shorter than the arms 1c of FIG. 1, this having the advantageous effect of raising their resonant frequency well beyond the working frequencies.
The embodiment described in FIGS. 1, 2 and 3 does not limit the scope of the invention.
The means for applying force to the rotor and the rods may be different from those represented, the latter having been simplified as much as possible for the sake of convenience of explanation.

Monday's pets on furniture
If you'd like to send us photos to include in next week's "pets on furniture" post, please ensure your photos follow our basic rules: First, the pet must be on a piece of furniture. And said piece of furniture must be clearly visible in the photo, so it takes center stage rather than your pet. Think of it more of a photo of a great piece of furniture that you want to show off...and your pet happens to be sitting on it. And second, the photo must be of decent quality. If it's dark or fuzzy (from a camera phone) then it may not make the cut. Thanks! (Photos, your name, location and a brief description can be sent to firstname.lastname@example.com and PLEASE don't send closeups of your pet!)
This is Jasper, my newfie, in my apartment in New York City. She was feeling sick, so allowed on the loveseat for the day.

This is Nell, our retired racing greyhound on Pottery Barn's Manhattan sofa. Above her is one of four original prints from 1891 issues of Harper's Weekly - proposed renderings of the Columbian Exposition, which was built the following year.
- Brad and Melissa (Evanston, IL)
Kitty follows me around the house, but especially loves when I work in my studio so she can get comfortable on my custom made peacock chair! We adopted her three months ago from a rescue organization. When she is not laying on the chair watching me, she likes playing fetch with plastic drinking straws (for real) or pulling upholstery nails out of the furniture!
- Kate and Andries (Shanghai China)
This is Lucille, the queen of the house. She is seen here in the first 2 pictures on my mom's new bedding (a huge change from the last "pets on furniture" picture I had of Lucille) and then in my room yawning/hinting at me that she is no longer going to cooperate with the picture taking. Clearly we are (now) a household that doesn't shy away from colorful and dramatic bedspreads!
- Sarah (New York City)
