Title: Gestion d'objets hypermedia
Inventor: ERLENKOETTER ANSGAR
IPC: G06F17/30
Filed: 1997-07-10
Abstract: Procédé et appareil faisant appel à une approche hypermédia pour gérer des objets répartis. Dans un premier mode de réalisation de la présente invention, le système hypermédia du réseau mondial WWW est utilisé. Un utilisateur initialise un logiciel de navigation qui permet à l'utilisateur de naviguer et de modifier différents attributs d'objets dans le système. Le logiciel de navigation communique avec un serveur qui comprend un adaptateur à protocole de transfert hypertexte (http) et une passerelle. Cette passerelle peut accéder à des objets dans le système et générer un code HTML en fonction des objets. Dans un mode de réalisation, des objets à structure d'arbre hiérarchique sont utilisés. Ces objets sont 'auto-descripteurs' (aussi dits 'introspectifs'). Le serveur interroge les objets en réponse aux interrogations provenant du logiciel de navigation, et chaque objet interrogé répond en fournissant des informations à propos de lui-même. Dans une autre variante préférée, le serveur fait démarrer les interrogations à propos des objets et retient ces informations afin de les utiliser pour répondre à des interrogations ultérieures du logiciel de navigation.

Abstract: Insulation displacing connectors (24) of an "inverted" type extend
upwardly from a base (14) of the terminal block (12) into connector chambers
(66) of driver modules (50) movable relative to the base (14) between upper
and lower positions. Passageways (70) within the modules (50) direct service
wires (46) moved through the passageways (70) into the connector chambers
(66) and into entrance openings (30) underlying upper edge portions (28) of the
insulation displacing connectors (24) within the chambers (66). Movement of
the module (50) from its upper position to its lower position drives the service
wires (46) downwardly from the entrance openings (30) of the connectors (24)
into and through slots (32) underlying the entrance openings (30), to establish
electrical contact with the service wires (46) and the connectors (24) and, in the
case of larger diameter wires, to impale the service wires upon impaling
elements (34) resisting pullout of the wires. Downward movement of a module
(50) also establishes conductive engagement between the connectors (24) and
tip and ring conductors (76) of an overvoltage limiting element (74). Sealant
pump chambers (88) within the modules (50) and cooperating sealant pump
elements (92) upon.the base (14) of the terminal block (12) introduce reserve
sealant material (84) into the modules (50) upon movement of the modules (50)
from an upper position to a lower position, to eliminate or at least reduce the
size of voids in the sealant material (84). A test clip surface (98) upon the
module (50) inclines a test clip (94) attached thereto away from an adjacent clip
(94). The modules (50) are driven from their upper positions to their lower
positions by thread-forming fasteners (58).

Abstract: The cable comprises individual conductor sets (18) having, typically, between 2 and 8 twisted pairs of insulated conductors occupying a notionally cylindrical space (30). Optionally, 4 or more twisted conductors comprise a set. Each set is itself sheathed. The notional cylinders are tangentially located w.r.t. the inside surface of an overall sheath (34), thus maximising the separation (32) between adjacent sets. A screen (36) separates the sheath from the central plastic foam filling, e.g. a low density polyethylene. The filling is centrally injected and has low high frequency losses and which does not adhere to the direct conductor insulation. The filling also contains dissolved or compressed gas that expands after injection. Rotation during construction produces sets of twisted conductors which follow helical paths within the sheath.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une étiquette de contrôle (30) dotée d'un dispositif de transmission (32) par radiofréquence et d'une antenne à plaque (10). L'antenne est en communication avec ledit dispositif et est munie d'une première (12) et d'une seconde (16) plaques conductrices sensiblement parallèles et séparées par une matière diélectrique (18) qui est en contact avec les deux plaques et qui présente une épaisseur suffisante pour créer une zone d'ombre entre les plaques au niveau desquelles la résistance de rayonnement sera régulée au cours du fonctionnement de l'antenne. La première plaque conductrice présente une dimension d'un quart ou d'une demie longueur d'onde en fonction de l'espace disponible et du motif souhaité. Vu que le champ électrique est lancé à partir de la zone d'ombre se trouvant entre les plaques et qu'il est fortement concentré, le fait d'amener l'étiquette à proximité d'un objet métallique, ou de la fixer sur celui-ci, aura un impact minimal sur l'impédance de l'antenne.
