Patent EP-0806648-A1 (EP)
Inventor: MAURIN YVES
IPC: G01N1/20
Filed: 1997-04-29
Abstract: The sampling unit is designed to be fitted into a fluid flow pipe and comprises a cylindrical body with fixed or screw-on flanges (2), the inner diameter of the body being the same as that of the pipe. The body has a side opening (5) connected to a tap (4) with a spherical stopper (11) and upper and lower seats (14, 15) and a cavity (12) designed to hold a given volume of fluid taken from the pipe. The upper seat (14) is of piston type and has a groove to receive a toroid joint (30) of an elastomer material which is resistant to the fluid being sampled, the seat making permanent contact with the sphere by virtue of the fluid pressure applied to it. The main body of the tap has two crown-shaped inserts (16, 17) which are designed to reduce to a minimum the passage of any fluid round the outside of the sphere, and the seats, inserts and a seal (9) between sections of the tap body are made from polytetrafluoroethylene. Preferably, the seal (9) can be made e.g. of graphite to confer fire security.

IPC: H04L12/46
Filed: 1997-06-02
Abstract: A method and apparatus are provided for connection-oriented switching in a communications network wherein a pre-established path is established between a select pair of an ingress switch and an egress switch. The use of pre-established paths enables a reduction in the total number of connections required inside the switch cloud, reduces the CPU load on trunk switches, and shortens the time for connection setup. In the embodiment described, the DA/SA fields of a MAC frame data packet are replaced with a "virtual path", which identifies the pre-established path between the ingress and egress switches. A "virtual circuit" is provided in another field of the modified packet which specifies the out-port and out-header on the egress switch for demultiplexing the modified packet upon receipt at the egress switch. The virtual circuit is exchanged between the ingress and egress switches at connection setup. The virtual path is assumed to already be in place, and known to both switches, prior to connection setup.

IPC: C23F13/00
Filed: 1997-07-03
Abstract: In an electrically corrosion-proofing process in which
the polarity of a metal member having a coating film is set at
negative, the duration of setting the polarity of the metal
member immersed in an aqueous solution of NaCl at negative is
made discontinuous, and a positive-set duration in which the
polarity of the metal member is set at positive, is interposed
between a proceeding negative-set duration and a succeeding
negative-set duration. The switching-over of the polarity is
carried out by a polarity switch-over relay between the metal
member and a DC power source. In the negative-set duration,
the treatment for corrosion-proofing of the metal member is
carried out, but the peeling-off of the coating film from a
starting point provided by a damaged portion is produced. In
the positive-set duration, an electrolytic product is produced
in an exposed portion of the metal member, and the peeling-off
of the coating film in the next negative-set duration is
prevented by the electrolytic product. Thus, it is possible
to carry out the corrosion-proofing treatment of the metal
member having the coating film and to inhibit the peeling-off
of the coating film by the corrosion-proofing.

Abstract: Les informations de latitude et de longitude dans un système de navigation et d'information sans fil (200) sont transmises à partir d'un équipement de planification d'itinéraire (207) à un site de base (201). Un traducteur (203) convertit chaque point de référence d'une coordonnée absolue en une coordonnée relative en soustrayant une situation géographique de référence de chaque coordonnée absolue (350). Le site de base (201) envoie alors un message comprenant les coordonnées relatives pour chaque point de référence à destination de l'unité distante (213). L'unité distante (213) utilise alors la situation géographique de référence et calcule les coordonnées absolues pour chaque point de référence et transmet ces informations à tous les équipements de navigation (705) qui sont couplés à l'unité distante (213). En ne diffusant que les coordonnées relatives de chaque point de référence à l'unité distante (213), on peut transmettre les points de référence à l'unité distante (213) dans un message de longueur plus courte qu'avec les techniques actuelles.
