Title: Conteneur pliable semi-rigide
Inventor: MELROSE DAVID MURRAY
IPC: B65D79/00
Filed: 2001-08-29
Abstract: L'invention concerne un conteneur pliable semi-rigide (10) possédant une paroi dotée d'une partie supérieure (5), d'une partie centrale (6), d'une partie inférieure (7) et d'une base (8). La partie centrale (6) comprend une partie de panneau de vide possédant une partie de contrôle (2) et une partie de lancement (1). La partie de contrôle (2) est plus inclinée verticalement et possède, par exemple un angle plus aigu par rapport à l'axe longitudinal du conteneur (10), que la partie de lancement (1). Grâce à la faible pression de l'air dans le panneau du conteneur, suite au refroidissement d'un liquide chaud dans ledit conteneur (10), la partie de lancement (1) se pliera vers l'intérieur afin de forcer la partie de contrôle (2) à s'inverser, puis à se plier vers l'intérieur dans le conteneur (10) et la partie centrale (6) à s'écraser. En situation pliée, les parties supérieures et inférieures de la partie centrale (6) peuvent être en contact important, de manière à contenir la capacité de charge par le haut du conteneur (10). Les languettes relevées (3) apportent un support supplémentaire pour le conteneur en situation pliée. Selon un autre mode de réalisation, le télescopage du dos du conteneur avec sa position d'origine se produit, lorsque la force du vide est relâchée suite au retrait du couvercle du conteneur.

Abstract: An excitation coil is arranged so as to be opposed to a rotatable heat
generating roller of a conductive material, and on a rear side of the excitation
coil, a core of a magnetic material is provided. The core is composed of a
central core that is formed continuously in a rotation axis direction of the
heat generating roller, and a plurality of U-shaped cores arranged at a
distance from each other in that direction. A high-frequency current is
applied to the excitation coil so that the heat generating roller 1 generates
heat by electromagnetic induction. An additional coil is wound around the
U-shaped core. Both ends of the additional coil are connected to a switching
unit. When the switching unit is brought to a connected state, under an
induction current generated in the additional coil, a magnetic flux in a
direction in which a magnetic flux of the excitation coil is cancelled out is
generated, so that heat generation of the heat generating roller can be
suppressed. The switching unit is switched over according to a width of a
paper sheet to be passed and a temperature distribution in the rotation axis
direction. Thus, a uniform temperature distribution of the heat generating
roller in the rotation axis direction can be maintained.

Abstract: For use in a video image upconversion unit of the type that uses motion compensation to generate an interpolated field using motion vectors, an improved method of motion compensation is disclosed that calculates a first correlation value from the values of corresponding neighbor pixels of a previous frame and from the values of causal neighbor pixels of a generated field. The first correlation value is compared with a first threshold value. The value of a pixel to be created within the generated field is set to be equal to the value of a corresponding pixel of the previous frame if the first correlation value is less than the first threshold value. The method also calculates a second correlation value from the values of corresponding neighbor pixels of a next field and from the values of causal neighbor pixels of a generated field. The second correlation value is compared with a second threshold value. The value of a pixel to be created within the generated field is set to be equal to the value of a corresponding pixel of the next field if the second correlation value is less than the second threshold value.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un inhibiteur de l'adhérence microbienne sous la forme d'anticorps d'oeufs de volaille, ainsi que sa méthode d'élaboration et ses méthodes d'utilisation. L'action de cet inhibiteur repose sur la prévention quasi-totale de l'attachement ou de l'adhérence d'immunogènes formant des colonies dans la panse ou les tractus intestinaux d'animaux hôtes destinés à la consommation. On élabore ledit inhibiteur en inoculant des oiseaux femelles avec l'immunogène, en recueillant les oeufs qui renferment des anticorps contre l'immunogène, en séchant les contenus des oeufs et en les ajoutant aux aliments ou à l'eau des animaux hôtes. En fonction de l'immunogène spécifique avec lequel on inocule l'oiseau femelle, on utilise l'anticorps de l'oeuf pour aider la croissance des animaux destinés à la consommation, en améliorant les taux de conversion alimentaire, en diminuant le gaspillage de protéines alimentaires occasionné par la présence de certains organismes formant des colonies chez des animaux, et pour réduire ou éliminer pratiquement l'incidence de maladies provoquées par la présence de certains immunogènes formant des colonies, occasionnant des maladies, tels que E. coli 0157:H7), dans la viande provenant d'animaux destinés à la consommation et dans d'autres denrées alimentaires.

Abstract: Selon l'invention, une soupape de régulation (10) comprend un premier (68) et un second (96) piston pouvant se déplacer dans un boîtier vers et en direction opposée d'un élément d'étanchéité (58). Les pistons (68, 96) sont fixés au boîtier et présentent des passages (72, 100) à travers celui-ci. Les pistons (68, 96) sont poussés vers l'élément d'étanchéité (58) par une pression fluidique à l'extrémité de sortie de boîtier (46) et en direction opposée de l'élément d'étanchéité (58) par un ressort (66). Une première (80) et une seconde (108) membrane, reliées aux pistons (68, 96), forment un accouplement étanche avec la paroi interne de boîtier de sorte que le fluide doit circuler à travers les passages (72, 100). Les membranes (80, 108) et le boîtier définissent une chambre d'expansion (118). Un orifice (40) se trouve en communication fluidique avec la chambre d'expansion (118) afin de forcer le premier piston (68) à s'accoupler avec l'élément d'étanchéité et d'éviter l'écoulement par les passages (72, 10).

Abstract: The signal reception method includes formation of a number of signal channels. These are weighted according to the different reception aerials. The signals from the channels are correlated with the replica of a reference signal emitted by the source and combined by means of coefficients obtained from the results of the correlation. The method for reception of a signal which is transmitted by source, using a number of aerials, includes formation of a number of signal channels. These are weighted according to the different reception aerials. The signals from the channels are correlated with the replica of a reference signal emitted by the source. They are then combined by means of coefficients obtained from the results of the correlation. The coefficients are obtained by complex conjugation with the results of the correlation. The channel signals are normalised in the course of their combination. The coefficients may also be determined by a matrix operation, the matrix being LxL, where L is the number of channels in operation.
