Abstract: L'invention concerne un distributeur (1) de fil élastique pour tricoteuses ayant une consommation en fil très variable dans le temps et périodiquement élevée. Ce distributeur (1) de fil est conçu sous forme de fournisseur et présente une roue (11) portant quelques tours de fil (2) à distribuer. Cette roue délivre le fil (2) à un dispositif de réserve (19) disposé entre la tricoteuse et la roue (11). Le dispositif de réserve (19) est conçu sous forme de section sensiblement linéaire sur le trajet du fil. Un capteur (22) de tension surveille la tension du fil. Le trajet de mesure dudit capteur est infiniment petit comparé à la longueur du fil à stocker dans le dispositif de réserve (19). Le trajet de mesure est défini par un élément (25) mobile du bloc détecteur (22) et est perpendiculaire au parcours du fil. Le raccordement d'un dispositif (9) d'entraînement, à faible inertie, à un dispositif de réserve (19) utilisant l'élasticité propre du fil et à un dispositif (24) de réglage destiné à la surveillance de la tension du fil au moyen d'un bloc détecteur (22), permet d'utiliser ledit distributeur (1) pour délivrer des fils élastiques tout en maintenant la tension du fil sensiblement constante même dans le cas de besoins très fluctuants. Le fil (2) n'étant soumis dans le dispositif de réserve (19) à aucune déviation et notamment à aucun frottement et le fil (2) arrivant sur la roue (11) sans l'intervention d'un dispositif de freinage du fil, il est possible d'absorber de petits renvois (2) de fil de la tricoteuse vers le distributeur (1) par des rotations inversées de la roue (11).

Abstract: In an exhaust gas system for ocean-going vessels, preferably for military purposes, that are equipped with at least one internal combustion engine and at least one gas turbine, the exhaust gases from the gas turbine and the exhaust gases from the internal combustion engine are introduced into a collector exhaust gas duct which extends essentially horizontally through the hull of the ship to the stern of the vessel, where it empties into the atmosphere a short distance above the water line. The exhaust gases are mixed in the collector exhaust duct, whereby the hot exhaust gases from the gas turbine are cooled by the comparatively cooler exhaust gases from the internal combustion engine, thereby reducing the risk of infrared detection.

Title: Telecommunications network with relocateability of subscriber number
Inventor: KALLIONIEMI KARL-ERIK
IPC: H04Q11/04
Filed: 1997-10-17
Granted: 2003-01-28
Abstract: A telecommunications domain (20) having subscriber number relocateablity includes a plurality of physical nodes or exchanges (22) between which calls are connected and a subscriber location server (30) which is connected to and accessed by each of the plurality of exchanges (22) in the domain (20). Each exchange (22) has a unique exchange identifier (ID). Generally, when a call is placed to a subscriber in the relocateability domain, a first exchange the call encounters in the domain queries the subscriber location server. When queried, the subscriber location server (30) returns a Network Routing Number (NRN) which includes a Network Routing Prefix (NRP). The Network Routing Prefix (NRP) is a node identifier (NI) for the local exchange to which the called party is connected. The exchange (22) to which the NRN is returned prepares a routing message for the call by including the Network Routing Prefix (NRP) in an Address Signal Field (ASF) of a routing message and by setting a number relocateability flag (NRF) in the routing message.      Using the NRP of the routing message, the call is routed to the called party exchange (i.e., the terminating exchange). In the called party exchange, the exchange identifier is recognized as its "own" and thereafter the rest of the Address Signal Field (ASF) is analyzed to identify the called subscriber line.

Title: Zero cross relay actuation method and system implementing same
Inventor: JENSKI LEONARD
IPC: H01H9/56
Filed: 1999-09-02
Granted: 2008-01-08
Abstract: Disclosed is an electromechanical relay drive system which prolongs relay life by ensuring operation of the relay in a manner to make and break contact between the contact electrodes at a zero crossing point of the switched waveform. Relay aging and environmental variations are dynamically compensated upon each actuation of the electromechanical relay to ensure proper timing of the energization and de-energization of the relay to ensure switching at the zero crossing point. Additionally, the drive system described compensates for variations in the actual contact operation during actuation for the positive and negative half cycle of the switched waveform. Furthermore, the system of the instant invention alternately energizes and de-energizes the electromechanical relay during the positive and negative half cycles of the switched waveform to prevent metal deposition from one contact electrode to the other. This system calculates the appropriate delays on a dynamic historical perspective by sensing slope changes of the coil voltage and current.
