Abstract: A crosslinkable acrylic copolymer sealant composition has a stabilized viscosity in that the viscosity does not unduly increase nor does the material gel on storage for periods of time up to and including one year. The stabilized viscosity is unexpectedly achieved by adding moisture scavengers either before and/or during the polymerization of the various monomers. The sealant composition is suitable for use in high movement applications as well as to metal and glass substrates.

Abstract: In a process for controlling an automatic gearbox wherein a transition occurs from a first, lower reduction step to a second, higher reduction step when a first clutch opens and a second clutch closes and a synchronizer speed is calculated by multiplying the gearbox output speed by the reduction ratio of the second reduction step, a speed value at which the pressure decrease of the second clutch begins is assigned to the synchronizer speed from a characteristic curve. The characteristic curve is adapted if the gearbox input speed becomes greater than the synchronizer speed or if the gradient of the gearbox input speed exceeds a limit value.

Title: Moyens d'interconnexion a verrouillage face contre face, pour fibres optiques et pour autres composants optiques, et procedes de fabrication correspondants
Inventor: SHEEM SANG K
IPC: G02B6/32
Filed: 1995-07-18
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un nouveau moyen qui permet de connecter entre eux des fibres optiques (1, 2) ou des canaux guides d'ondes et dans lequel deux contours de surface coïncidants sont fabriqués, l'un (7, 8) de ces deux contours sur le plan contenant la face terminale de la fibre ou du canal guide d'ondes et l'autre contour (9, 10) sur une surface à laquelle doit être joint la fibre optique ou le canal guide d'ondes. Les contours de surface à joindre sont verrouillés face contre face dans une position stable et unique lorsque les deux surfaces sont amenées l'une contre l'autre, ce qui place l'extrémité de la fibre optique ou du canal guide d'ondes dans une position prédéterminée sur la surface de jointement. Les contours de surface coïncidants peuvent être créés sur la facette terminale de la fibre optique (1, 2) elle-même ou sur la surface de cette facette terminale qui s'étend vers l'extérieur. Ce même moyen d'interconnexion peut être utilisé pour connecter d'autres composants optiques tels que des lentilles et des sources de lumière. Une approche modulaire est possible, dans laquelle une combinaison de réalisations à verrouillage face contre face sont empilées ensemble pour permettre l'alignement de ces composants optiques.

Title: Method of producing shaped bodies, in particular for packaging, and shaped bodies
Inventor: WISSMUELLER FRIEDRICH
IPC: C08L3/02
Filed: 1995-09-12
Abstract: The invention concerns a method of producing shaped bodies, in particular for packaging, from biodegradable material and using a viscous mass which contains biodegradable fibrous material in a mixture of fibres of different lengths, water and starch, the viscous mass being baked in a baking mould to form a fibrous material-starch composite. The invention further concerns shaped bodies produced according to this method. After baking, the shaped body is coated, preferably in an inline process carried out in the baking device, to render it fluid-tight and/or the shaped body is made water-repellent owing to impregnation of the viscous mass after baking.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un télémètre à laser comportant des modes d'acquisition d'une cible choisie pour plusieurs usagers, et de mesure avec une grande précision, le tout étant affiché dans le viseur durant le processus de visée et le fonctionnement de l'instrument. Le télémètre comprend une base de temps de précision à étalonnage automatique (24) ainsi qu'un circuit automatique de seuil de bruit (36). La base de temps de précision fait appel à un oscillateur à quartz interne d'unité centrale de traitement (30). Grâce au circuit automatique de seuil de bruit (36) et au procédé employé, un seuil de fonctionnement est établi automatiquement pour la section réceptrice de signaux d'un circuit émetteur d'impulsions laser (18). Cela permet d'obtenir à la sortie d'un détecteur (20) des impulsions de bruit émises à une cadence constante, de manière à avoir une sensibilité maximale aux signaux en retour, et afin de permettre la détection d'une impulsion laser la plus faible possible à l'aide d'un détecteur d'impulsion (24) et d'un circuit de réception laser (22). La distance est calculée par une unité centrale de traitement (28) et apparaît sur un affichage à cristaux liquides (32).

Abstract: An efficient process for desulfurizing catalytically cracked gasoline, in which a reduction in olefin content is controlled to thereby minimize a reduction in octane number. A catalytically cracked gasoline is separated into a plurality of fractions including one or both of a fraction rich in sulfur compounds that are hard to desulfurize and a fraction rich in sulfur compounds that are easy to desulfurize. One or both of the fractions are subjected to hydrodesulfurization. The resulting fractions are then mixed with the remaining fractions.

Abstract: The distributor is esp. for granular material e.g. seed or fertiliser, having a pneumatic metering feed mechanism from the storage hopper to the head. Pipes from the latter deliver to a sowing share or fertiliser spreader. Some of these pipes have stop valves cutting off the supply to the spreader etc. the material being then returned by pipe to the hopper. The return pipe (16) leads to a point above the metering mechanism (2), where this extracts the seed from the hopper (1). The pipe mouth (17) can be so situated that mostly the returned material is extracted. All the return pipes from the stop valves can lead to a collector, from which a common pipe leads back to the hopper. The valves can consist of deflectors movable between two positions. In one of these, all pipes to the shares are open, while in the other they are connected to the return pipe.

Abstract: A reservoir (24, 200) for an ink supply (20) for an ink-jet printer is provided with a refill port (51) through which it can be refilled. The reservoir (24, 200) may be coupled to a variable volume chamber (56) via a check valve (64) which allows the flow of ink from the reservoir (24, 200) to the chamber (56) and limits the flow of ink from the chamber (56) to the reservoir (24, 200). The chamber (56) is coupled to a fluid outlet (28) which is normally closed to prevent the flow of ink. However, when the ink supply (20) is installed in a printer, the fluid outlet (28) establishes a fluid connection between the chamber (56) and the printer. The chamber (56) is part of a pump (26) provided with the ink supply (20) that can be actuated to supply ink from the reservoir (24, 200) to the printer. Alternatively, the reservoir (24, 200) may be coupled directly to the fluid outlet (28) and an alternative method of transferring the ink to the printer provided.

Abstract: A system (31, 41, 32, 33) in which a user manually changes the quality of specific time periods of encoded video (180). After the automatic encoding (50) of video into a compressed digital format, a person editing (31, 33) the encoded video reviews the quality of the video and manually indicates that the quality of specific time periods (180) of the video is to be altered. As the digital storage medium such as an optical disc (84, 90) which stores the encoded video has finite storage capacity, the total number of bits for the encoded video (50) and the quality of the video is limited. A percentage of bits are removed from time sequence and placed in a bit pool (368). Using an exponential function (368) new bits are calculated and the bits in the bit pool are proportionally distributed to the video frames (376). The frames must then be checked (394) and possibly adjusted (398, 400) to prevent underflow of the video buffer.
