Abstract: A device and a method for stabilizing an elongated metallic strip of a magnetic material when coating the strip with a metallic layer. The strip is transported from the bath in a direction of transport along a predetermined transport path. A wiping device for wiping off superfluous molten metal from the strip applies an air flow in a line across the strip, where the wiping device includes at least one pair of air-knives arranged with one air-knife on each side of the strip. An electromagnetic stabilizing device stabilizes the position of the strip with respect to the predetermined transport path. A sensor detects the position of the strip in relation to the predetermined transport path.

Abstract: Anti-curl control device for an automatic dispenser of wipe materials, of the type incorporating a housing with lid, fixed end plates supporting a drum incorporating a cutting device, a material reel wound on a core having end fittings and a press roller counter-bearing upon the drum. The anti-curl device comprises a roller having a peripheral surface with protruding griping feature. The roller is freely rotatable relative to supporting plates extending from a reel-holder end plate which is flexible relative to a fixed end plate. The roller is angled obliquely relative to the material reel and comes into localized contact along its generatrix with the last turn of the reel to ensure a braking effect. The roller is linked to rotation of the drum and the reel-holder end plate is elasticly deflected to adjust in position as the reel is unwound.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un circuit électronique servant à mesurer une puissance de sortie d'un amplificateur de puissance RF. Ce circuit électronique comprend un transistor de détection de courant destiné à détecter le courant RF de l'amplificateur de puissance et un module de détection de tension destiné à détecter la tension de l'amplificateur de puissance RF. Ce circuit électronique comprend en outre un détecteur cohérent destiné à multiplier le courant détecté et la tension détectée dans le domaine temporel. Ainsi, on produit un signal qui indique directement la puissance fournie par l'amplificateur de puissance, quelque soit sa charge effective. Le détecteur cohérent est de préférence réalisé sous la forme d'un modulateur en quadrature de Gilbert et fournit une sortie différentielle qui permet de compenser efficacement le décalage en continu.

Abstract: [SUMMARY]  It is an object of the present invention to provide a display medium that suppresses an occurrence of uneven colors and a drop in contrast to achieve excellent display properties and that is capable of being manufactured according to a simple method, and to provide a method of manufacturing the display medium.  [MEANS FOR RESOLVING]  In a display medium (10) according to the present invention, partitions for partitioning the electrophoretic medium (30) is formed of a fluid substance. Therefore, when the entire display medium (10) is flexible, the partitions do not incur damage when the display medium (10) is flexed. Since the partitions are formed using phase-separation between the electrophoretic medium (30) and the partitioning medium (20), a display medium (10) can easily be obtained without requiring complex processes, thereby reducing the manufacturing costs.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un pansement en mousse comprenant des bords biseautés. Ce pansement se caractérise par le fait que la densité de la mousse au niveau des bords du pansement est supérieure à la densité de la mousse au niveau de la partie centrale du pansement. La densité supérieure de la mousse au niveau des bords du pansement permet de bloquer, par formation de gel, l'exsudat de la plaie, et, ainsi, d'éviter toute fuite d'exsudat au niveau des bords du pansement. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, le pansement en mousse est un pansement non adhésif. Le pansement en mousse peut comprendre un support imperméable à l'eau qui recouvre la surface extérieure et la surface en contact avec la peau du pansement. Ce pansement est particulièrement utile dans le traitement d'ulcères veineuses à l'aide de pansements compressifs, car les bords biseautés du pansement permettent de réduire sensiblement l'empreinte dans la jambe par rapport à un pansement à bords droits.

Abstract: A high-performance number-controlled oscillator (NCO), for creating an event clock from a master clock according to a period control signal. It processes edge times rather than period values, allowing direct control of the spectrum and peak amplitude of the justification jitter. The number-controlled oscillator may preferably be used in a hybrid numeric-analog clock synchronizer, for establishing a clock or carrier locked to a timing reference. The clock may include a framing component. The reference may have a low update rate. The synchronizer achieves high jitter rejection, low phase noise and wide frequency range. It can be integrated on chip. It may comprise a numeric time-locked loop (TLL) with an analog phase-locked loop (PLL).
