Abstract: The subject invention provides a portable cleaning assembly. The assembly includes a vacuum body and a vacuum unit. The vacuum body has a receiving channel extending from the top of the vacuum body. The assembly further includes a waste container supported on top of the vacuum body, wherein the bottom of the waste container is supported. The bottom of the waste container also separates the vacuum body from the waste container, such that waste container is separate and distinct from the vacuum body and removable from the vacuum body. A transport mechanism supports the vacuum body and the waste container thereof for moving the vacuum body and the waste container across the area while applying the vacuum and for independently filling the waste container with waste.

Abstract: A method and system are disclosed for operating two or more integrator amplifiers with different power supplies for a modulator of an analog-to-digital ("A/D") converter. A first, upstream integrator is operated with one power supply, and the other downstream integrator(s) is/are operated with at least another power supply. The modulator has amplifiers with coefficient gains having values that are determined and set so that voltage levels for the at least another integrator are maintained within operating and output limits. An integrating coefficient gain k1 for the first integrator is set to have a sufficiently large value so that an integrating capacitor can be made small for the one integrator. Another integrating coefficient gain k2 for a second integrator is set to have a sufficiently small value so that an output voltage from the first integrator is sufficiently attenuated to a voltage value within an operating range of the second integrator.

Abstract: A preservative gas generating device includes a carrier sheet and a layer of a matrix forming material having a preservative gas generating compound dispersed therein. The layer of matrix forming material permits the generation of a preservative gas by the preservative gas generating compound and to permit the gas to permeate out of the matrix formed by the material. The matrix forming material adheres to the carrier sheet in the form of a layer covering an area of the carrier sheet and forms at least one discrete zone, with a peripheral area of the carrier sheet surrounding the discrete zone(s) being substantially free of the matrix forming material. A cover sheet is secured to said peripheral area to enclose the layer of matrix forming material between the carrier sheet and the cover sheet. At least one of the carrier sheet and the cover sheet are permeable to said preservative gas.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un commutateur microsystème (1, 20, 25, 30, 33) comportant un support (2) doté d'un évidement (3) et un pont souple (6), monté sur le support (2), qui traverse l'évidement (3). La forme du pont (6) permet de maintenir sélectivement un état stable concave, dans lequel le pont gonfle vers l'intérieur de l'évidement (3), et un état convexe stable dans lequel le pont gonfle vers l'extérieur de l'évidement (3). Ce commutateur comprend également un actionneur (8, 9; 26, 27) servant au passage du pont (6) entre les états stables, et un élément de commutation (7, 31, 34) monté sur le pont (6) de sorte que le mouvement du pont entre les états stables fasse basculer l'élément de commutation entre une position de marche et une position d'arrêt. Selon une autre conception, le commutateur microsystème (40, 55) comporte un support (41) pourvu d'un évidement (42) ainsi qu'un élément de torsion allongé (44), monté sur le support (41), qui traverse l'évidement (42). Un pont souple (43, 56), monté sur le support (41), traverse l'évidement (42) dans une direction sensiblement perpendiculaire à l'élément de torsion (44). Le pont (43, 56) est relié à l'élément de torsion (44) au niveau de son croisement de sorte que la première section du pont s'étende entre le croisement et un côté de l'évidement (42) et que la seconde section du pont s'étende entre le croisement et le côté opposé de l'évidement (42). La forme du pont (43, 56) est conçue pour maintenir sélectivement un premier état stable, dans lequel la première section du pont gonfle vers l'intérieur de l'évidement et la seconde section du pont gonfle vers l'extérieur de l'évidement, et un second état stable dans lequel cette configuration est inversée. Par ailleurs, un élément de commutation (45) est monté au niveau du croisement du pont (43, 56) et de l'élément de torsion (44), et un actionneur (46a, 46b; 58a, 58b) est également prévu pour effectuer le passage du pont (43, 56) entre les états stables. Ainsi, le passage du pont (43, 56) entre les états stables entraîne la torsion de l'élément de torsion (44) et la rotation de l'élément de commutation (45) entre la position marche et la position arrêt. L'invention concerne en outre des dispositifs de commutation comportant ces commutateurs ainsi qu'un commutateur équipé d'un ensemble de dispositifs de commutation de ce type.

The aforementioned geometric sections are provided with a quadrilateral shape having strongly rounded summits. The two long sides of said sections converge in the medial direction and each section lies inside a geometric quadrangle which is located in the plane. The four sides of said quadrangle intercept, respectively, four geometric lines (m, l, a, p) which are obtained by projecting the profiles of the internal surface of the cortical bone. The above-mentioned geometric sections pivot in relation to one another in internal rotation from the bottom upwards in order to obtain the desired helitorsion angle.
