Abstract: A fluid, eg. compressed air, pressure regulating valve providing a
regulated fluid pressure output that is proportional to the value of an
electrical control signal (C) applied to the valve comprises a body (1), a
bore (2) in the body (1), a fluid supply port (3) and a fluid output port
(4) communicating with the bore (2), and an axially moveable spool (6)
mounted in the bore (2). The axial position of the spool (6) in the bore
(2) is determined by a pilot pressure signal acting on a diaphragm (8)
associated with one end of the spool (6), the pilot pressure signal being
proportional to the value of the control signal (C). Differing axial
positions of the spool (6) result in differing cross-sectional flow paths
between the supply port (3) and outlet port (4) and hence in a fluid
pressure output proportional to the value of the control signal (C).

Abstract: A midsole assembly for an athletic shoe
comprises a midsole 3 formed of soft elastic material, a
corrugated sheet 4 interposed in the heel portion of the
midsole 3, a plurality of transverse holes 6, 7 formed at
the contact regions of the midsole 3 with the corrugated
sheet 4, and through holes 10, 11 extending vertically and
communicating with the transverse holes 6, 7. In using this
shoe, air flows into the shoe through the transverse holes
6, 7 and the through holes 10, 11, and thus, good ventilation
can be acquired especially at the heel portion of the inside
of the shoe. Moreover, because the shape of the transverse
holes 10, 11 is maintained by the action of the corrugated
sheet 4 , the transverse holes 6, 7 can be prevented from being
crushed by the impact load applied onto the midsole 3 at the
time of impacting the ground. In such a way, ventilation can
be secured in an athletic shoe as well.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un système et un procédé permettant à des investisseurs de gérer leurs investissements dans un fond de placement ou dans un portefeuille propre. L'actif et le passif du fond sont modifiés suite à une opération (achat, vente ou échanges) d'un des membres du fond ou des investisseurs y participant. On détermine alors pour ce membre et pour les autres au prorata de leur avoir les intérêts à leur attribuer sur la base des résultats économiques de l'opération. On répète si nécessaire le processus par itération suite aux opérations effectuées par les autres membres du fond. Il s'agit donc d'une gestion dynamique. Quant aux portefeuilles propres des participants au système, leur gestion dynamique reflète les opération à variation dynamique individuelles ou communes des autres participants. Ce système d'investissement est pour des investisseurs la première occasion d'investir dans un fond à variation dynamique ou de posséder un portefeuille à variation dynamique géré activement non par un gestionnaire professionnel mais par les préférences individuelles cumulées (et non traitées collectivement) d'un nombre illimité d'investisseurs.
