Abstract: The vehicle lock has an adjustable lock casing (2) and a latch casing (1) that fits in the lock casing. The latch casing has a latch bolt (3) that is anchored against a lock shackle (4) in the lock casing. The lock casing has a cavity with side walls (11) to hold the latch casing. The latch casing tapers like a trapezoid in the direction of the lock casing in the pivot plane of the latch bolt. The trapezoid edges of the latch casing are guided by coarse and fine guide devices against spring-loaded lock wedges (7), where the spring bias acts against the lock direction. The coarse guide devices comprise a bore (8) inside a lock wedge and a rigid guide rod (9) in the lock casing that fits in the bore, where there is a guide play between the bore and the guide rod. The fine guide devices comprise a plane inner guide face of a side wall of the lock casing and a matching plane guide surface on the lock wedge.

Abstract: An image registration detection system in a multicolor marking platform
determines registration of non-black colors using either the reflectance or the density of a test
pattern as a measurement parameter. A method is also provided to determine the degree of
registration error of each non-black color using the density of the test pattern. The present
invention encompasses any marking platform that develops multicolor images in color
separation layers that are in superimposed registration with one another, including
electrophotographic and ink marking platforms. The apparatus and method disclosed require
less measurement precision than prior color registration methods. Registration measurements
can be performed on images formed on a photoreceptor, images transferred to an intermediate
substrate, images transferred to a target substrate, or images fused to a target substrate. The
method disclosed also requires less processing overhead than prior registration methods while
providing a more precise method of estimating registration error.

Abstract: An apparatus for heating fluids comprises a flow duct
for the fluid to be heated, an electrically inductive impeller
13 disposed in the flow duct, a motor 10 arranged to rotate the
impeller 13 to cause the fluid to flow along the flow duct and
a coil 21 disposed adjacent the impeller 13. 
     A high frequency signal is applied to the coil 21,
which generates a magnetic field that induces eddy currents in
impeller 13. The impeller 13 is not an ideal conductor, and
thus the electrical energy is dissipated as heat as current
flows through the impeller. The heat generated in the impeller
13 is transferred to the fluid as it is driven along the duct
by the impeller 13.

Abstract: A fiber optic cable is fabricated with a non-corrugated armor tube which reduces the
amount of material needed for the armoring while maintaining adequate cable flexibility.
The outer diameter (OD) of the armor tube has a relationship with the thickness (t) of an
outer jacket and intervening layers disposed about the tube such that 2t ≤ OD ≤ 10t. If the
tube is formed from a metal tape, sufficient flexibility is provided as long as the outer
diameter is less than 10t. The tube and outer jacket are loosely adhered to maintain
flexibility, and the bending strain is maintained at less than 87.5% of the maximum bending
strain for the cable.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne des systèmes permettant de créer et d'authentifier des objets imprimés à l'aide d'un filigrane de détection de copie et d'authentification. Par exemple, un système de vérification comprend un décodeur de filigrane et un module de vérification. Le décodeur de filigrane détecte un filigrane de détection de copie dans un objet imprimé afin de déterminer si l'objet imprimé a été reproduit. Le module de vérification traite un message décodé à partir du filigrane d'authentification sur l'objet imprimé de manière à authentifier l'objet imprimé ou le détenteur de l'objet imprimé. Les filigranes de détection de copie et d'authentification peuvent être réunis en un seul filigrane ou ils peuvent être des filigranes différents. Par exemple, le filigrane de détection de copie peut être un filigrane fragile qui contient le message et qui se dégrade après une opération de reproduction, telle que la photocopie ou la lecture par balayage de l'objet puis la réimpression de l'objet. Dans un mode de réalisation différent, les filigranes de détection de copie et d'authentification peuvent être des filigranes séparés incorporés dans une image imprimée sur un objet. Dans certaines applications, le filigrane d'authentification comprend un identificateur qui relie l'objet à une entrée de base de données contenant des informations relatives audit objet. Ces informations peuvent être utilisées pour vérifier le détenteur de l'objet par comparaison de ces informations avec les caractéristiques du détenteur (par exemple, une photographie ou un identificateur d'utilisateur) ou pour vérifier la validité de l'objet par comparaison de ces informations avec les caractéristiques visibles ou pouvant être lues par une machine sur l'objet.
