Abstract: A compressible brush core having a first mechanism
for allowing compression of the outer diameter of the brush
core and a second mechanism for prohibiting compression of the
outer diameter of the core. The multiple-part brush core
comprises an outer core component (30), having a hollow center
and having at least one notch (31) for allowing compression of
the core during insertion into the hollow center of a brush,
and an inner core component (40) for insertion into the center
of the outer core component to provide rigidity during use.
The brush core assembly may additionally include mounting
mechanisms (51) including a spring-mounted spindle (61, 62) for
engaging a mounting socket on a scrubbing device.
Alternatively, the scrubbing device may include a spring-mounted
spindle (71, 72) for engaging the mounting socket
(i.e., hollow center) of the brush core assembly. During
mounting of the brush core assembly into a scrubbing device,
the spring-mounted spindle retracts under a compressive force.
When the compressive force is released, the spindle is released
to engage the mounting socket, and the spring holds the brush
core assembly in place.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un appareil (10) permettant de détecter des substances chimiques (114) dans un fluide et comportant un tube préconcentrateur (18) relié à une pompe bidirectionnelle (30) et à un détecteur (50). Le tube préconcentrateur (18) contient une matière absorbante (28) en contact thermique avec un élément de chauffage (82). La pompe bidirectionnelle (30) pompe le fluide dans une première direction (118, 112, 116a) à travers la matière absorbante (28), ce qui entraîne une accumulation de certaines des substances chimiques (114) sur un côté de la matière absorbante (28). La pompe bidirectionnelle (30) est inversée de sorte qu'elle pompe le fluide dans une seconde direction opposée (132, 134, 136), ce qui a pour effet de transporter les substances chimiques accumulées (114) vers le détecteur (50). La matière absorbante (28) est chauffée tandis que la pompe bidirectionnelle (30) est inversée. De préférence, le détecteur (50) est pourvu d'une pompe séparée (64) qui attire le fluide vers le détecteur (50). Un autre appareil (10) servant à recueillir et à détecter les substances chimiques (114) présentes dans un fluide comporte un élément absorbant (18), au moins un détecteur chimique (58), une première pompe (30) servant à pomper le fluide à travers l'élément absorbant (18) et une seconde pompe (64) servant à pomper le fluide vers le détecteur chimique (58). L'élément absorbant (18) contient une matière absorbante (28) et un élément de chauffage (82). La première pompe (30) pompe le fluide dans l'élément absorbant (18), recueillant ainsi les substances chimiques (114) sur la matière absorbante (28). L'élément de chauffage (82) chauffe l'élément absorbant (18) afin de désorber les substances chimiques (114) de la matière absorbante (28). Les substances chimiques (114) ainsi désorbées de la matière absorbante (28) sont ensuite amenées par pompage depuis l'élément absorbant (18) jusqu'au détecteur chimique (58). La matière absorbante (28) peut comporter une cavité contenant l'élément de chauffage (82). Dans une variante, l'élément de chauffage (82) peut être intercalé entre la matière absorbante (28) et une enceinte (18) entourant celui-ci.

Abstract: Methods and apparatus for halting the data strobes transmitted over a source
synchronous link to enable the data stored in the data capture flip-flops in a source
synchronous receiver to be scanned out for subsequent analysis. This allows for the
evaluation of the captured data without placing additional components in the functional
data path and, therefore, without increasing the latency of the transmission. To provide
optimal timing margins the data and data strobe paths are logically and electrically
matched. This includes routing the data and data strobe signals in close proximity from
the transmitter to the receiver, and through the same logical and physical elements in the
transmitter and receiver. This insures that any injected link noise is experienced
common-mode. In addition, the data strobe signal is preferably driven at one-half of the
period of the data signal so that the data strobe and data signals experience logical state
transitions at the same time and at the same frequency. This insures maximally similar
electrical modes on the communication link, further maximizing link margin.
