Abstract: A process for gold coating of a substrate (1) bearing a base layer (2), in order to form gold-coated first contact areas (2a-c) and gold-free second contact areas (3a-c), involves temporarily covering the second contact areas and then placing the substrate in an exchange gold plating bath. The novelty is that the gold bath has an electrolyte which causes no gold deposition on the base layer (2). Preferably, the base layer is a chemical nickel layer (2) and the gold bath is a reductive gold plating bath, the electrolyte of which preferably contains 0.1-20 g/l potassium, sodium or ammonium gold(I) cyanide or gold(III) cyanide, 0.1-25 g/l free potassium, sodium or ammonium cyanide, 0.1-50 g/l potassium, sodium or ammonium sulphite, 0.01-10 g/l aromatic nitro compound, 1-100 g/l free alkali, 1-50 g/l complex former(s) selected from hydroxycarboxylic acids, phosphonic acids, nitriloacetic acids and ethylenediamineacetic acids and 0.1-50 g/l borane and/or boranate reducing agent.

Abstract: Storage devices 41, 42, such as magnetic disk
devices, are mounted on a frame 20', made of a flexible
material such as resin, which in turn is fastened to a
terminal device, without screws, by inserting a portion
24 of the frame 20' into a hole 31 on the terminal
device. Means 21a, 21b made of a flexible material are
provided on the frame 20' for fastening the storage
devices 41, 42, in such a way as to absorb external

Abstract: Hopper plug (143) vents out air pressure build-up
which would cause toner leaks. One side of the plug has
a series of entrance openings (491) which communicate
with the inside of the hopper (61). Air, potentially
containing some toner particles, passes through those
openings and enters a first chamber (507). The first
chamber has exit holes (499) which do not face the
entrance openings. Air passing through the exit holes
of the first chamber enters a second chamber (509). The
second chamber has exit holes (495) which are at the
opposite end and do not face the entrance openings.
Third chamber (511) of this labyrinth faces a mat toner
filter (501) which leads to exit holes (503).

Abstract: Refrigerator evaporator (71) passages (72,73) form a serpentine tube held against a flat plate (711) by intermittent welds (713). A shallow compartment (74), formed by a dished plate peripherally welded to the first, contains e.g. a water/alcohol mixture (710), constituting a thermal accumulator. The compressor cuts in at the evaporator's maximum operating temperature, reducing the temperature till phase change begins in the eutectic mixture. Temperature remains constant, close to the required air temperature during the change. On completion, the compressor stops. After a phase reversal, at the same temperature, maximum temperature is regained. Other configurations of the refrigerant passages and mixture container, e.g. as concentric tubes are described.

Abstract: The enclosed space (1), e.g. a rail carriage, has ventilation ducts (5, 6) carrying inward (q1) and outward (q2) air-flows, differing by a quantity (qf) representing leakage. Each duct contains a fan (10) and an adjustable (14, 15) flow-control device (11). An internal pressure (P1) sensor (13) inputs to a regulator (12) operating both flow-control actuators (14, 15). A memory (16) records a selected reference pressure. Above this pressure, the regulator reduces the in-flow, leaving the out-flow duct open; below, the out-flow, only, is reduced. The regulator ensures, in real time, that the difference between instantaneous flows continually compensates for leakage, keeping the internal pressure constant. Optionally, separate compensating ducts are provided, parallel to the main ducts.

Abstract: A visual information system includes an array of light emitting elements located at the side of a train track. The elements are individually energizable by a controller in response to a predetermined program stored in a memory and representative of a predetermined visual image. The controller causes selected elements to be turned ON and OFF, some repetitively, in a predetermined sequence as dictated by the program with a time span of 0.015 seconds. A sensor activates the controller upon the approach of a train so that a passenger gazing at the array as the train passes will perceive the image apparently extending over an area substantially greater than the area of said array.

Abstract: When manufactured, an optical data carrier is provided with digital information, which is written and stored in accordance with at least one previously defined encoding method for error correction and which may be read and decoded at a later stage by means of an optical reader with correction of errors in accordance with said encoding method. A predetermined number of logical symbols or bits are selected at predetermined positions in the digital information to be stored on the data carrier. A set of logical errors are intentionally created by replacing the selected symbols with corresponding symbols in a predetermined code sequence representing the identity of the data carrier. The logical errors are of such a type as to be normally corrected by the optical reader, when the data carrier is read and/or copied. The presence of at least a subset of the set of logical errors during reading without error correction of at least part of the digital information on the disc is interpreted as evidence of the data carrier having an identity determined by the set of logical errors.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système d'acquisition d'image destiné à un système de vision artificielle. Ledit système d'acquisition d'image dissocie l'acquisition d'image de la transmission d'image à un processeur hôte, au moyen d'un contrôleur d'imageur programmable qui valide et invalide de manière sélective la transmission de données vers l'hôte et au moyen d'un système de mémoires tampons qui stockent provisoirement les données image en attendant l'attribution de mémoire. Ceci permet au système d'acquisition d'image d'acquérir des images de façon asynchrone et de modifier les paramètres d'exposition image par image en évitant le temps d'attente induit par l'attribution de la mémoire destinée à stocker l'image acquise. L'architecture du système de la présente invention permet en outre d'interrompre et de reprendre l'acquisition d'image avec un risque minimal de perte de données. On améliore encore le maniement du flot des données en ne transmettant à l'hôte que les données correspondant à la zone utile de l'image et en éliminant, au niveau de la caméra, les données étrangères à cette zone.
