Patent EP-0578316-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MONTEIL SERGE
IPC: G01S5/14
Filed: 1993-07-02
Abstract: In order to point two directional antennas (101, 23), supported respectively by a mobile station (1) and a fixed station (2), towards one another, the invention relies on satellite guidance (GPS) otherwise known in maritime and airborne navigation. The mobile station (1) includes a GPS computer initialised with the position of the fixed station (2) and supplying first directional parameters on the direction of the mobile station (2) to the fixed station (1) with respect to the magnetic North. In the mobile station (2), these first parameters serve to point the antenna (101) of the mobile station mounted on a gyroscope depending on the heading followed by the station towards the antenna (23) of the fixed station. After transmission (102, 24) from the mobile station (1) to the fixed station (2), these first directional parameters serve to define the directional parameters for the opposite direction, from the fixed station to the mobile station, according to which the antenna (23) of the fixed station is pointed.

Abstract: An annular member (2) is placed on a forming profile of a convex die (6, 6') without fixing the annular member (2) to the convex die (6, 6'). Then, the convex die (6, 6') is moved toward a concave die (10, 10') which has an axis (16) inclining with respect to an axis (14) of the convex die (6, 6'). When the convex die (6, 6') is moved toward the concave die (10, 10'), the concave die (10, 10') is revolved around the axis (14) of the convex die (6, 6'). The concave die does not revolve about its own axis. Revolving the concave die (10, 10') around the axis (14) of the convex die (6, 6') may be replaced by forcibly rotating the convex die (6, 6') about its own axis (14). When a compression load is imposed on the annular member (2), opposed ends of the annular member (2) are formed simultaneously.

Abstract: A power unit for a conduit cleaner. The conduit cleaner has a motor with a housing carrying a shaft that is rotatable about an axis. The motor operates in response to the introduction of a pressurized fluid. The housing has inlets for admitting pressurized fluid and an outlet to permit the discharge thereof. A nozzle is connected to the housing and is configured to direct fluid from a pressurized supply to the housing inlet and direct fluid discharged from the outlet out of the power unit. The nozzle has a substantially cylindrical outer surface. In one form, the nozzle does not project beyond the cylindrical outer surface. Accordingly, a compact unit can be made according to the present invention. The absence of radially projecting structure also avoids protrusions that may intercept roots or other foreign matter within a conduit and thereby interrupt free movement of the conduit cleaner through a conduit.

Abstract: The improved internal combustion engine in one embodiment operates more efficiently under partial load conditions by alternating between the active and passive operating modes, the latter characterized by cylinder decompression by exhaust valves opening and charge elimination by suction valves closing throughout all strokes. Smooth change in operating modes is possible at very high speeds; by synchronous shifting of a mode camshaft (4) rotating at one eighth of the camshaft (2) speed, to and from a transient axial position where it sequentially toggles auxiliary cams (3) about valve rocker pivots (24) to change rocker geometry while rocker operated devices are inoperative in the cycle.
