Abstract: La présente invention concerne un connecteur de valve sans aiguille faisant appel à une cloison (12) élastomère fendue capable de mouvement axial dans le sens proximal et distal à l'intérieur d'un logement. Lorsqu'un connecteur épointé est connecté au logement, la cloison est poussée dans la direction distale. Un élément (14) faisant ressort sollicite la cloison dans la direction proximale. Lorsque la cloison se trouve en position proximale, la fente (20) qui traverse la cloison est maintenue en position fermée par un ajustement serré entre la suface intérieure du logement et la surface périphérique de la cloison, lequel ajustement serré provoque une compression radiale dirigée vers l'intérieur de la cloison, orthogonale par rapport à l'axe de la fente. La surface d'extrémité extérieure ou proximale de la cloison peut présenter un profil concave qui permet à la fente de se fermer complètement lorsque la cloison se trouve en position proximale. Lorsqu'un connecteur épointé est connecté au logement, la cloison est poussée dans une direction distale, ce qui modifie la contrainte qui s'exerce sur la cloison et permet à ladite cloison de se dilater ou d'être dilatée et, par conséquent, à la fente de s'ouvrir. Les emplacements axiaux des structures du logement qui modifient les charges radiales ouvrant et fermant la fente sont choisis de manière à garantir la fermeture étanche de la cloison avant que cette dernière atteigne complètement la position proximale, ce qui permet de maintenir un joint étanche entre le connecteur épointé et la cloison jusqu'à ce que la fente soit hermétiquement fermée. La structure qui ouvre la fente, ou qui permet à cette dernière de s'ouvrir, est placée de manière qu'elle n'ouvre la fente qu'après qu'une force suffisante a été appliquée sur la cloison par le connecteur épointé, afin de garantir l'existence d'un joint étanche entre le connecteur épointé et la cloison avant l'ouverture de la fente.

Title: Films a appliquer pour la protection contre la corrosion
Inventor: RAWLINGS DAINE C
IPC: C09J7/24
Filed: 1997-12-19
Abstract: Les restrictions environnementales toujours plus rigoureuses rendent plus difficile l'application de revêtements par des procédés habituels tels que la peinture au pistolet à cause des solvants volatils et des pigments dangereux. L'étude minutieuse de l'environnement est essentiellement axée sur les traitements habituels de protection de surfaces contre la corrosion, notamment les apprêts chromatés et les revêtements par conversion. Nous appliquons des films (10) en vue de fournir un écran antivapeur sur le substrat permettant de le protéger contre la corrosion. Nous produisons des films à appliquer courbés à partir d'une famille de moules présentant différentes courbures gaussiennes au lieu de réaliser un moule 'par projection' sur la surface concernée afin de former les films à appliquer. L'utilisation de films à appliquer courbés réduit les nervures, les plis et les fentes qui apparaissent parfois lorsque l'on essaie de recouvrir la surface avec des films à appliquer plats (plans).

Abstract: In a sprocket-driven plotter (12), a pair of drive
sprockets (28) are spaced apart from each other and keyed to a
common sprocket shaft (26), and a drive motor is drivingly
connected to the shaft (26) to rotatably drive the sprockets (28),

an arcuate surface segment (44) extending in the axial direction
of the support (24) for contacting and supporting the sheets (5).
Corresponding recessed surface areas (42) are formed between the
raised surface areas (40) for reducing friction between the
sheets (5) and support (24).

Abstract: A method and apparatus for radio communication between a
main unit (1) and a sub unit or tag (2) attachable to objects
is disclosed. According to the invention a binary
modulation of the rotation sense of circular-polarized
waves, i. e. a circular polarization modulation is used
for the transmission of binary data in at least one communication
direction. In preferred embodiments data are encoded
by symbols for outward and/or inward communication.
As well, inward-communicated data may be encoded by time-selectively
echoing a predefined circular polarization
pattern received from the main unit (1). Both active and
passive tag (2) designs are disclosed that are very simple,
power-saving and lightweight. Compared to conventional
ASK, PSK or FSK modulation schemes the new circular
polarization modulation distinguishes itself by reduced
complexity and reduced power requirements at low demodulation
error rates and better performance with interfering
signals. In particular the system is largely tolerant
against linear-polarized jammers, against cross-talk between
outward-bound and inward-bound signals at the main
unit (1) and against polarization inversion due to metallic
reflections.

withdrawn to position 8, in order to enable the r.f. signals to be detected in the

Abstract: An additional information signal is superimposed on
a video signal at a very low level so that it does not
stand out on the reproduced image. Spectral spreading
code sequences are generated corresponding to different
predetermined parts of the video signal. Bit information
signals of the additional information signal comprising
plural bits are spectrally spread by the spreading codes
to generate spectrally spread bit information signals
corresponding to the plural bits. The spectrally spread
bit information signals are superimposed on corresponding
different predetermined parts of the video signal. As
high priority bit information signals of the spectrally
spread additional information signal are superimposed on
high priority parts of the video signal, high priority
information in the additional information can be
protected even if the video signal is modified.

Abstract: Electric toaster with a first heating element arranged at one side of a toasting compartment and a second heating element arranged at an opposed side of the toasting compartment. The first heating element is divided into two sub-elements. Two diodes and a switch provide the possibility to switch over from a normal two-sided toasting mode to an asymmetric single-sided toasting mode. In the normal mode the switch is closed and the sub-elements receive power only during different half-waves of the mains supply voltage, so that the effective radiant power of the sub-divided first element is equal to the radiant power of the second heating element. In the asymmetric mode the switch is opened and the resistance of the first heating element is greater than the resistance of the second element, as a consequence of which relatively more radiant power is emitted by the first heating element than by the second heating element.

Abstract: An integrated multiport switch having an interface connected between the MAC of each port and a MIB report bus, whereby MIB reports for the plurality of switch ports are transmitted individually to a switch MIB engine, fed by the MIB report bus, on a time shared basis.

A FIFO storage buffer in interface temporarily holds MIB report data, received from lower priority ports on a time-slot allotted sequence synchronized to a clock signal, during periods in which MIB report data from higher priority ports are given preference for output to the MIB report bus.
