Title: Floor water-drain
IPC: E03F5/06
Filed: 1989-03-08
Granted: 1992-08-05
Abstract: The floor water-drain is composed of a frame (38) and a grating (39) inserted therein. The grating (39) has a central bar (1) and transverse bars (2) arranged thereon. Retaining parts (15, 16, 17), into which projecting parts (3, 4, 5) of transverse bars (2) reach when the grating (39) is inserted, are arranged above a support (14) for the grating in the frame (38). To insert the grating, the projecting part (3) of one side of the grating is inserted into the relevant retaining part (15) and the opposite side of the grating (39) is then pressed down, the projecting parts (4, 5) at sloping surfaces (9) snapping into the retaining parts (16, 17) with simultaneous elastic deflection of the central bar (1). The grating (39) is thereby positively retained in the frame (38) and, even when using an elastic grating material, cannot be moved by the traffic running over it so far that it could spring out of the frame (38).

Title: Numeric valve
IPC: F16K47/04
Filed: 1989-03-28
Granted: 1992-05-06
Abstract: A "digital" valve comprises a plurality of shutters (46) connected in parallel between an inlet duct (2) and an outlet duct (42) of the digital valve, with each shutter (46) being constituted by an elementary spherical plug valve (50) capable of transmitting an individual flow rate. These shutters are distributed angularly around the axis of the digital valve and each of them is incorporated in a module (24) received in a standard seating (14, 18), thereby making it easy to remove any of the modules. The invention is particularly applicable to rapidly changing over between different flow rates of a liquid or a gas under the control of a digital electronic system (70).

Abstract: A respirator especially constructed for flight crews has a harness strap which can be inflated to a somewhat rigid, self-sustaining orientation to permit one-handed placement of the respirator over the wearer's head. Once the respirator is in place, release of a lever for inflating the strap deflates the latter to an orientation sufficient to cause the resilient strap to tightly press a peripheral seal of the respirator mask against nose and mouth areas of the user's face. A comfort adjustment to relieve strap tension permits selective reinflation of the strap to a somewhat smaller value than necessary for initial donning of the harness, and the limited reinflation pressure is sufficient for causing the mask to seal against the face during pressure demand breathing. In instances where pressurized breathing is needed, however, pressure within the strap is automatically released so that the strap presents sufficient bias to hold the mask against the face without oxygen leakage therepast.

Abstract: Aspects of the invention include a method of conducting a reduced length search along a search path. A node which would otherwise occur between a previous and a following node in the search path is eliminated, and information is stored as to whether, had said eliminated node been present, the search would have proceeded to the following node. During the search, a search argument is compared with the stored information, and the search effectively progresses from the previous node directly to the following node if the comparison is positive. In preferred embodiments, some nodes provide result values for the search, and a node is eliminated only if its presence would not affect the result value for the search. In another aspect, the invention features a method of conducting a two mode search of reduced length. For a first mode of the search, nodes along a search path are provided, at least some of the nodes including one or more pointers pointing to other nodes. A search argument comprising a series of search segments is provided, some values of segments of the argument ccrresponding to nodes along the search path, some other values of the segments relating to a second mode of the search. Indicators associated with nodes are provided, each indicator indicating the segments corresponding to the second mode. The search path is searched by processing successive search segments by inspecting the indicator associated with each node, and proceeding to the second search mode if the indicator indicates that the segment relates to the second mode.

Title: An apparatus for, and a method of, cutting a blank
IPC: B21D28/14
Filed: 1990-06-20
Granted: 1993-09-15
Abstract: When a blank is cut from metal sheet which suffers from crystallographic anisotropy, there is a tendency for ears to be formed during subsequent forming operations, such as drawing or pressing. In order to compensate for this tendency, there may be used a metal blank which is not completely round, but has lobes at positions to cancel at least some of the valleys between the ears. There is described a punch (110) and die (111) which may be used to form such a lobed blank (112). The punch (110) has four circumferentially extending lobe-forming sections (124). Each lobe-forming section is constructed by forming a stepped recess in the cutting edge of the punch (110). In each lobe-forming section, the depth of the recess varies from a maximum at the middle of the section to zero at the ends. The die (111) is conventional.
