Abstract: Device for sorting goods, comprising a driven endless conveyor which can move along a closed circuit formed by a supporting section in which the conveyor is guided, and also comprising a number of regularly spaced carrier elements for the goods, each carrier element being formed by at least two trays (1,2) which can be flapped open downwards and which are all hingedly suspended from the conveyor (3), and which trays in the working position together form a carrier tray for receiving, conveying and discharging the goods. The device is characterized in that the flap-open trays, which together form a carrier element, are supported in a window-shaped frame (4) guided on either side of the circuit (5) in a supporting section (6,7), and in that each frame (4) is hingedly coupled in a central region to the frame (4) of the two adjacent carrier elements (3), in such a way that the series of coupled frames form the conveyor. For the connection to adjacent frames each frame of the sorting device is also provided at the front and rear side with coupling means which permit a pivoting movement both in the plane of the frame and in a plane at right angles thereto, lying in the direction of forward movement. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Method and mould for the manufacture of a multilayered object by moulding. According to the method, a lining sheet is placed in a mould (1, 2) so that it at last partially extends beyond the mould, a thermoplastic resin being injected under said lining sheet (3). The thermoplastic resin (4) is also spread under the lining sheet (3) to form the inner layer of the object by creating a resin surplus (9) in the peripheral portion (10) of the object. Finally, the excess portion (11) of the lining sheet (3) is folded onto the mould (1, 2), thereby sandwiching said resin surplus (9) between the lining sheet (3) and a portion of the mould (9) until the resin sets.

Abstract: A deformable grating aparatus for modulating light is made by forming an insulating layer on a substrate, forming a first conductive layer on the insulating layer and then forming a sacrificial layer thereon. The sacrificial layer and the first conducting layer are then etched to define bit lines and busses to bonding pads. Then a layer of resilient material is formed onto the etched layers and a reflective conducting layer is formed on the resilient layer. A dielectric layer is deposited on the reflective conducting layer. The dielectric layer, the reflective conducting layer, the resilient layer and the sacrificial layer are all then etched to form a grating including a plurality of parallel elements. Thereafter the sacrificial layer is removed below the parallel elements, to suspend the parallel elements over the first conducting layer. The surface is treated to prevent the grating from adhering to the first conducting layer. A light modulator includes a substrate with an insulating layer, and a plurality of parallel conductive layers formed on the insulating layer. The ribbons are spaced apart from the conductive layers by an air space and mounted to the substrate in gaps between the conductive layers.

Abstract: A process for alkylating aromatic substrates using a pentasil type catalyst is disclosed wherein the catalyst is stabilized by the presence of water. An aromatic substrate, such as benzene, is reacted with an alkylating agent, such as ethylene, over a pentasil type catalyst, including ZSM-5 and silicalite types. The aromatic feedstock may be used without drying to remove water in the process of the present invention. It has been heretofore necessary to remove water from the feedstock by, for instance distillation, since even trace amounts of water had been found to markedly degrade many catalysts of the pentasil type. The process of the present invention discloses the use of pentasil catalysts for alkylation in the presence of 100-100,000 ppm water to yield enhanced catalyst stability.

Abstract: A lotion composition for killing such viruses as rhinovirus and influenza in addition to imparting a soft, lubricious, lotion-like feel when applied to tissue paper in amounts as low as from about 2 to about 20% by weight, and tissue paper treated with such lotion compositions are disclosed. The anti-viral action of the lotion is due to the addition of an organic acid such as citric acid or a mixture of adipic acid, glutaric acid, and succinic acids. The solubilization of the organic acids within the lotion matrix and with the infected mucus is aided by the addition of such hydrophilic solvents as propylene glycol and polyethylene glycols. The lubricious lotions also contain a plastic or fluid emollient such as petrolatum, an immobilizing agent such as a fatty alcohol or fatty acid to immobilize the emollient on the surface of the tissue paper web and optionally a non-ionic surfactant to improve wettability when applied to toilet tissue. Because less lotion is required to impart the desired soft, lotion-like feel benefits, detrimental effects on the tensile strength and caliper of the lotioned paper are minimized or avoided. The anhydrous nature of the lotions also aids in the maintenance of such physical properties as tensile and caliper.

Abstract: Procédé de transmission de données dans un système DECT comprenant au moins une unité centrale (RFP) et au moins une unité périphérique (PP). Selon le procédé, la transmission de données entre lesdites unités est organisée en trames ayant une durée prédéfinie à l'intérieur de laquelle sont attribués un certain nombre de créneaux temporels. Le procédé prévoit une transmission de données à basse vitesse validant seulement les zones S et A de chaque créneau, et invalidant en même temps la zone B qui transmet les données selon la norme DECT classique. L'invalidation de la zone B permet de réduire de 70 % (soixante-dix pour cent) environ la puissance nécessaire pour mettre en oeuvre les opérations de transmission de données. Ce procédé est donc particulièrement avantageux dans toutes les applications d''échange/rassemblement de données' qui prévoient l'utilisation de la norme DECT et nécessitent des stations périphériques fixes ou mobiles de faible puissance, alimentées localement par piles (figure 2).
