Title: Accouplement a serrage
Inventor: GILL AJIT SINGH
IPC: F16L55/00
Filed: 1998-08-17
Abstract: Un accouplement destiné à être fixé à l'extrémité d'une canalisation (2), dotée d'une gorge (3c) sur la circonférence, comprend un corps d'accouplement (6) qui permet d'introduire, à l'intérieur, l'extrémité de la canalisation (2), et un anneau circonférentiel ouvert (7) maintenu par le corps d'accouplement (6). L'anneau (7) est élargi par le diamètre extérieur plus grand de la canalisation lorsque l'extrémité de cette canalisation (2) est introduite dans le corps d'accouplement (6), et reprend son diamètre d'origine en pénétrant dans la gorge (3c). Lorsque l'anneau (7) se trouve dans la gorge (3c), l'accouplement est verrouillé à l'extrémité de la canalisation (2), et la canalisation (2) ne peut être retirée de l'accouplement. L'accouplement est aussi équipé de moyens (8, 9, 10) qui permettent d'élargir mécaniquement l'anneau afin de pouvoir soit désaccoupler la canalisation (2) et l'accouplement, soit permettre, lorsque la canalisation (2) est introduite dans l'accouplement, qu'elle ne rencontre pas l'anneau (7) avant que celui-ci ne soit placé dans la gorge (3c) de la canalisation (2). L'accouplement peut être équipé d'anneaux (7, 22) à chaque extrémité de manière à accoupler deux canalisations (2, 3) bout à bout qui peuvent comporter ou ne pas comporter de gorges d'extrémité. Cet accouplement peut aussi comporter un anneau à une extrémité et un filetage, une bride, un ensemble de d'éléments de mâchoire à came partiellement tournants, ou d'autres raccords à l'autre extrémité. L'accouplement peut être utilisé afin de raccorder des canalisations, des tuyaux, des valves, des enceintes sous pression, des tuyaux de construction, et des conduits électriques.

IPC: G07D7/02
Filed: 1998-04-24
Abstract: L'invention concerne la structure d'éléments de sécurité pour documents, des dispositifs pour le contrôle de documents comportant de tels éléments de sécurité, ainsi qu'un procédé d'utilisation de ces éléments de sécurité et des dispositifs selon la demande de brevet DE 197 34 855.6. L'objectif de l'invention est de compléter la structure d'éléments de sécurité pour documents avec d'autres éléments de sécurité, et de proposer des dispositifs pour le contrôle de tels éléments de sécurité, ainsi qu'un nouveau procédé d'utilisation de ces éléments de sécurité et dispositifs, qui rendent très difficile, pour ne pas dire impossible, aux falsificateurs de tirer des conclusions du fonctionnement des procédés et des dispositifs de contrôle, en ce qui concerne les éléments de sécurité, pour ensuite produire de faux documents si semblables aux originaux qu'ils ne pourraient pas être détectés par des dispositifs de contrôle. La structure d'éléments de sécurité pour documents à contrôler correspond à une nouvelle conception qui n'est pas fondée en premier lieu sur l'observation visuelle mais sur les procédés de contrôle. Cette conception, appelée ci-après conception fonctionnelle, résulte de la combinaison de structures électriquement conductrices et isolantes de grandeurs identiques ou difféerentes, dans des plans identiques ou différents, avec des conductivités identiques ou différentes, et elle est matérialisée par des structures métallisées et/ou des encres à écrire ou d'impression conductrices.

Title: Efficient index-data fetch via callback for a table data
Inventor: MCARTHUR CATHERINE
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 2000-04-28
Abstract: A callback to a data manager is earned out from an index manager in a query processing system for an index-data fetch to enable an index page held stabilized by an index manager to remain stabilized during predicate checking or data consumption operations. The ind ex manager locates a data identifier in an index and calls back to a data manager to access the  data indicated by the data identifier. The data manager may carry out a predicate check or a data consuming operation on the data and if this is the case the index manager may access the next da ta identifier in the index when the data manager callback is complete. The index page need not be  destabilized in  such a case.

Filed: 1999-03-30
Abstract: It is known that the addition of an anti-staling amylase reduces the rate of crumb firming during storage for 1-7 days after baking, but the inventors found a need to improve the softness in the initial period after baking, particularly the first 24 hours after baking. This can be overcome by using a phospholipase, so that bread made by the combined use of an and-staling amylase and a phospholipase has improved softness, both when eaten on the same day and when stored for several days after baking. There is no significant change in the taste or smell of the baked product.

Patent CA-2327908-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BROWN MATTHEW D
IPC: H04B10/07
Filed: 2000-12-08
Abstract: The present invention relates to an optical communications system performance monitoring technique which provides for detecting bit disparity within a data stream. The average power value for a data stream is ascertained by passing the data stream through a low pass filter. The data stream's average power value is then compared with a bit stream baseline power value for a one bit stream and a zero bit stream, the resulting deviation comprising a bit disparity value. An embodiment of this invention would incorporate the use of threshold alarms set for unacceptably high levels of bit disparity. The triggering of these threshold alarms could initiate the transmission of automated customer warnings such as a notification that performance cannot be guaranteed due to high bit disparity on the signal.

Title: Apparatus and method for forming cap
Inventor: BIETZER STEVEN H
IPC: B65D41/62
Filed: 1999-10-12
Abstract: A mold for injection molding of a plastic bottle cap (10) has a cavity (36) which defines the outside slope of the top and skirt of the cap. A core (41) and a core insert (42) fixed to the top of the core define the inside of the cap and constitute a single, non-moving part. A tapered stripper ring (43) below the cavity engages the base of the cap skirt (13). After the cap has been injected through a hot tip (37) in the cavity, the cavity is retracted. The stripper ring is then elevated relative to the core by means of ejector pins (44). As this is proceeding, air is released under the top of the cap to break a vacuum tending to hold the cap on the cap insert. The cap is thus ejected from the mold. A  reduced cycle time is achieved. The wall thickness of the cap may be reduced, thus reducing material cost.
