Abstract: L'invention porte sur un plateau porte câbles (200) du manipulateur d'un système de contrôle, ledit manipulateur et ses câbles servant à commander une tête (62) utilisée pour des contrôles sur des dispositifs à semi-conducteurs. Les plateaux porte câbles (102) de l'invention sont montés dans le manipulateur, à l'intérieur d'un logement (26) pour câbles et sur leurs rails respectifs (16) ce qui leur permet de se déplacer longitudinalement vers l'extérieur et l'intérieur par rapport au susdit logement. Lesdits plateaux reçoivent et soutiennent les câbles reliant un bâti (2) du système de contrôle à la tête de contrôle. Lorsque le manipulateur se déplace pour positionner la tête de contrôle, les câbles sont entraînés. En réponse, le plateau se déplace indépendamment en suivant le mouvement des câbles pour permettre au manipulateur des mouvements d'amplitude maximale, tout en atténuant les contraintes de compression et de traction sur les câbles et en limitant l'usure à long terme. Les plateaux sont plus hauts que larges ce qui donne aux câbles plus de flexibilité autour d'un axe parallèle à la hauteur des plateaux. Lesdits plateaux comportent de plus à leur base une bride arrondie pour empêcher l'abrasion des câbles. Les extrémités des plateaux sont en outre effilées en longueur selon différents angles pour mieux soutenir les câbles et en réduire la tension pendant les flexions.

Abstract: Tray is engineered for receiving food, in particular on board aeroplanes, vehicles or other transport means, wherein the tray comprises a tray body, on which a first receiving surface for receiving food is formed, and a receiving part extending above the first receiving surface and spaced therefrom, on which upper side of which a second receiving surface for receiving food extending above the first receiving surface and spaced therefrom. Since the receiving surfaces are disposed on different planes, the actual area of the tray may be slight, in which case the receiving surfaces disposed lying above one another together form a receiving surface which may be substantially larger than the area of the tray. The tray is therefore particularly suitable for use in restricted spatial conditions, for example on board aeroplanes. The vertical dimensions of the tray may be such that the tray body with the receiving part placed thereon fits into a slide-in unit of an existing trolley. This saves space, for example on board aeroplanes.

Abstract: A reduced keyboard disambiguating system. The keyboard has twelve to sixteen keys, nine of them labeled with numerous letters and other symbols, and those nine plus one more are associated each with one of the ten digits. Textual entry keystrokes are ambiguous. The user strikes a delimiting "Select" key, or a key with an unambiguous character interpretation, at the end of each word, delimiting a keystroke sequence that could match any of a plurality of words associated with the same keystroke sequence. Each input keystroke sequence is processed with a complete vocabulary, and words which match the sequence of keystrokes are presented to the user in order of decreasing frequency of use. The vocabulary is stored in a special format that supports significant data compression without requiring additional processing. In addition, stems of longer words whose initial letters match the sequence of keystrokes are also presented to the user in order of decreasing frequency of use. If the frequency of the words associated with a stem is high enough, that stem is displayed as the default word object. Activations of an ambiguous key associated with a plurality of punctuation characters are disambiguated from the context of the surrounding keystrokes.

Abstract: An electrostatic microactuator, known as a "Scratch Drive Actuator" or SDA, is based on a collective set of distributed elementary SDAs of small size that are associated with one another and that integrates a large number so as to allow the addition of the forces generated by each of the SDAs in the collective set. An external mechanical prestress, formed by a homogeneous external pressure in the form of a bias voltage applied at rest to the associated SDAs, is applied to the SDAs to allow a superposition of the forces generated by the associated SDAs. This is done while communicating to an external load the entire driving force emanating from the collective behavior of the SDAs. The electrostatic attraction forces established by the bias voltage are used to calibrate an individualized prestress for each actuator involved in the collective set. Such an electrostatic microactuator forms part of an active three-dimensional microcatheter, as one possible application, that can be used in a blood vessel.

Abstract: An inflation device (5) for an inflatable article (such a life jacket), includes a housing (8) for holding a container of pressurised fluid (6), a displacement means (12) including a piercing means (15) displaceable so as to penetrate the container (6) and allow the release of said pressurised fluid, and actuation means (23, 27, 28, 29) having engaging co-operating elements (17, 25) which engage to retain the displacement means (12) in an unactuated configuration. The actuation means (23, 27, 28, 29) release the displacement means (12) both through the presence of water or by manual operation. The co-operating elements (17, 25) are substantially radially arranged. The line along which the displacement means (12) acts may be coaxial with the radii of the co-operating elements (17, 25). One of the co-operating elements (17) is capable of inward radial movement, and the actuation means (27, 28, 29) operates to prevent that co-operating element's (17) radially inward movement. Similarly, one of the co-operating elements (25) is capable of outward radial movement, and also prevented by the actuating means (23). When the actuation moms (23, 27, 28, 29) is triggered (by water or by the manual release), the movement of one of the co-operating elements (17, 25) causes the displacement means (12, 15) to pierce the container.
