Abstract: Un appareil de radiographie comprend un circuit de commande d'exposition (20) qui délivre un signal de commande permettant le réglage d'une source de rayons X (1). Ce circuit de commande d'exposition (20) détermine le signal de commande à partir d'une zone de l'image radiographique dépourvue de surexposition. A cette fin, ce circuit comprend un dispositif de sélection (23) qui détermine une zone de mesure à partir d'un signal d'image électronique obtenu à partir de l'image radiographique grâce à un détecteur de rayons X (5, 8, 7), et en comparant le niveau de signal de ce signal d'image électronique avec une valeur plafond dépendant du réglage de l'appareil de radiographie, celui par exemple de la haute tension et du courant d'anode de la source de rayons X. Cette valeur plafond correspond de préférence à la différence séparant le niveau de surexposition et une marge de sécurité. Cette dernière permet de rendre le circuit de commande d'exposition insensible aux petites fluctuations de l'intensité et de l'énergie du faisceau (3) de rayons X produit par la source (1) de rayons X.

Abstract: Roue amortissant les chocs, destinée à un véhicule, comprenant deux cadres (14, 14') montés à l'intérieur d'une jante (12) et un pneumatique (10) monté à l'extérieur. Les cadres (14, 14') sont percés d'une ouverture primaire (16) située en leur centre et de plusieurs ouvertures secondaires (18) espacées à intervalles réguliers sur le cadre. Les ouvertures secondaires (18) sont situées à une certaine distance de l'ouverture primaire (16), à égale distance du centre de celle-ci. Le diamètre des ouvertures secondaires est inférieur à celui de l'ouverture primaire. La périphérie des ouvertures secondaires est tournée vers l'intérieur des cadres (14, 14'). Un moyeu (34) comportant une partie mobile (30) munie de plusieurs protubérances (70) est placé à l'intérieur de l'ouverture primaire (16), la partie mobile (30) est située à l'intérieur des cadres et chacune des protubérances (70) de la pièce mobile est placée entre deux ouvertures secondaires (18). Plusieurs éléments élastiques (40) positionnés de façon radiale joignent la jante (12) et le moyeu (34). Ainsi, lorsque la partie mobile se déplace par l'intermédiaire d'un arbre, le mouvement des protubérances (70) peut être restreint du fait que ces protubérances se coincent contre la périphérie tournée vers l'intérieur des ouvertures secondaires, ce qui permet d'éviter un déplacement excessif de la partie mobile.

Abstract: A method of producing alkylene oxide adduct comprises
reacting an organic compound having one or more active hydrogen
(for example, higher alcohol, amine, etc.) with alkylene oxide in
the presence of an Al · Mg composite oxide catalyst. The catalyst
can be obtained by calcining and activating aluminum magnesium
hydroxide shown by nMgO · Al 2 O 3  · mH 2 O. In this method, a highly
active reaction can be performed, and alkylene oxide adduct having
very narrow alkylene oxide adduct molar distribution can be
obtained. Since the load in a catalyst separating step is reduced,
the catalyst can be efficiently separated. Therefore, the alkylene
oxide adduct can be produced at low cost. In addition, the
reaction can be performed at high speed, and the reaction time can
be reduced.

Abstract: A liquid supply module includes one or more sets of bulk liquid containers each supplying a respective reservoir via a liquid supply line. The bulk liquid containers and reservoirs are vented above the highest liquid level in the system. A pump periodically removes a known volume of liquid from a reservoir which is replenished from a bulk liquid container. A sensor detects a liquid/air transition in the liquid supply line to the reservoir indicative of the exhaustion of liquid resupply from the bulk liquid container. An air vent solenoid valve in communication with the reservoir is closed when an empty bulk liquid container is replaced. Normal pump operation siphons liquid out of the bulk container after container replacement. A control system tracks pump iterations and calculates a number of executable iterations remaining before the reservoir runs dry. With a fresh bulk container in place, the air vent solenoid opens the reservoir air vent upon detection of an air/liquid transition allowing liquid to flow by gravity from the bulk container into the reservoir. A bulk liquid container lid sensor indicates whether a bulk liquid container is properly installed in the system. The liquid module is disposable in a sliding drawer, and can include unique mechanical keying means to insure each bulk liquid container fits in only one position in the liquid supply module.

Abstract: Signal (digital sine wave signals) (Sd) stored in a memory means (3) are read. The phase of input signal (analog sine wave signal) (Sr) supplied to an input terminal is compared with that of signal (Sa) generated by D/A-converting the signals (Sd) (by means of a comparator (2)), the reading address signal of the memory means (3) is controlled based on the phase error signal (a) generated as a result of the comparison by the comparator (2) (by means of an address forming circuit (5)). Thus, the phase of the digital sine wave signals (Sd) supplied to an output terminal (6) is synchronized with that of the analog sine wave signals (Sr) supplied to the input terminal (1). Desired digital signals synchronized with the phase of the input signals can be generated by processing the digital signals with a simple constitution.
