Title: Liaison de blocage pour tubes concentriques
Inventor: SHUMARD DENNIS
IPC: F16L19/075
Filed: 2002-11-05
Abstract: Cette invention concerne une liaison de blocage pour tubes concentriques. Ce blocage est conçu spécifiquement pour résister au mouvement axial d'un tuyau intérieur à emboîtement par rapport à un tube extérieur à douille auquel il est réuni. Le blocage, qui fait intervenir un anneau, comprend généralement une bague de calage d'emboîtement, une bague de calage de collet et un ou plusieurs logements de calage de conception spéciale. La bague de calage d'emboîtement comporte une ou plusieurs saillies d'accrochage qui, au contact, s'engagent par frottement dans le tuyau d'emboîtement. De même, l'anneau de calage de douille comporte une ou plusieurs saillies d'accrochage qui, au contact, s'engagent par frottement dans le tuyau à douille. Les logements de calage assurent un positionnement tel de la bague de calage à emboîtement et/ ou de la bague à collet que les saillies d'accrochage serrent les tuyaux en empêchant t des mouvements axiaux (d'écartement ou de compression). Les bagues de calage présentent généralement au moins une surface tronconique qui s'engage sur une surface tronconique opposée appartenant soit à une autre bague de calage, soit à un boîtier, ce qui améliore la prise des saillie d'accrochage sur les parois de tuyau.

Title: Hearing aid
Inventor: BORDEWIJK LOURENS GEORGE
IPC: H04R25/02
Filed: 2003-01-15
Abstract: A hearing aid to be placed in the auditory canal. This hearing aid is composed of one side that is fitted near the outside of the ear and another side that has to be fitted facing the eardrum. The two sides are connected to each other by way of a curvature. This curvature is such that the hearing aid can be used either on the left or on the right by further special measures such as central positioning of the microphone input in the head end face of the one side, making use of only two angles of curvature of approximately 15~ and approximately 45~, and using switching means. In this way it is possible to provide a hearing aid that can be used either on the left or on the right.

IPC: B62D11/08
Filed: 2004-10-29
Abstract: A back-up steering system is provided having a hydraulic pump, an accumulator, a mode control valve, a main solenoid valve, and a pair of back-up solenoid valves. The system is connected, to left and right service brakes. The hydraulic pump and the accumulator are both connected to a main hydraulic line. The main solenoid valve is connected to the main line, a common fluid sump, and the mode control valve. The back-up solenoid valves are each connected to the main line, the sump and the mode control valve. The service brakes are connected to the mode control valve. During normal operation the mode control valve is set so that the service brakes are in fluid communication with the mode control valve and the main solenoid valve. When the main solenoid valve is actuated the pump is in fluid communication with both service brakes for simultaneous actuation thereof, in response to operator induced braking. At this time the back-up solenoid valves are disconnected from the service brakes due to the position of the mode control valve. During back-up or emergency operation the mode control valve is set so that the service brakes are in fluid communication with the mode control valve and the back-up solenoid valves. The service brakes are selectively brought into fluid communication with the pump and/or accumulator via selective actuation of the back-up solenoid valves. By selectively actuating either the left or right service brake the vehicle can be steered even though the primary steering system is not functioning properly. At this time the main solenoid valve is effectively disconnected from the service brakes due to the position of the mode control valve. Electrical input to the various valves of the system is provided by the vehicle alternator and in the event of alternator failure, the valves are powered by the vehicle battery. Hydraulic fluid pressure is provided under normal conditions by the hydraulic pump and in the event of pump failure, the accumulator acts as a back-up to provide fluid pressure to the system.

Abstract: The present invention provides one-component compositions which comprise one or more hydroxyl functional acrylic resin having a glass transition temperature (Tg) of from -100°C to -10°C and one or more dialkyl dicarboxylic acid ester endcapped polyisocyanate crosslinker, such as the isocyanurate of isophorone diisocyanate (IPDI), and flexible, environmental etch resistant coatings made therefrom. The acrylic resins comprise the polymerized reaction product of one or more flexibility conferring monomers, e.g, butyl acrylate, and provide the coating with its flexibility. The one or more dialkyl dicarboxylic acid ester endcapped polyisocyanate and the hydroxyl groups in the one or more acrylic resins react to cure at lower temperatures than current one-component blocked isocyanate coatings. Alternatively, one-component coating compositions consists essentially of one or more rigid hydroxyl functional acrylic resin and one or more dialkyl dicarboxylic acid ester endcapped aliphatic polyisocyanates. The present invention provides coated, environmental etch resistant exterior automotive plastic parts, such as bumpers, fascia, body trim and body molding.

IPC: F25J3/02
Filed: 2004-02-12
Abstract: A process for the recovery of ethane, ethylene, propane, propylene, and heavier hydrocarbon components from a hydrocarbon gas stream is disclosed. The stream is cooled and divided into first and second streams. The first stream is further cooled to condense substantially all of it and is thereafter expanded to the fractionation tower pressure and supplied to the fractionation tower at a first mid-column feed position. The second stream is expanded to the tower pressure and is then supplied to the column at a second mid-column feed position. A distillation stream is withdrawn from the column below the feed point of the second stream and is then directed into heat exchange relation with the tower overhead vapor stream to cool the distillation stream and condense at least a part of it, forming a condensed stream. At least a portion of the condensed stream is directed to the fractionation tower as its top feed. The quantities and temperatures of the feeds to the fractionation tower are effective to maintain the overhead temperature of the fractionation tower at a temperature whereby the major portion of the desired components is recovered.

Title: Division and square root arithmetic unit
Inventor: UESUGI TAKAHIKO
IPC: G06F7/38
Filed: 2005-12-13
Abstract: A division and square root arithmetic unit carrying out a division operation of a higher radix and a square root extraction operation of a lower radix. A certain bit number (determined on the basis of a radix of an operation) of data selected from upper bits of the output of a carry save adder and the output of the adder are input to convert the data into twos complement representation data, and the twos complement representation data is shifted a certain bit number (determined on the basis of the radix of the operation) to use the shifted data for a partial remainder of the next digit. Hence, a large number of parts such as registers of a divisor and a partially extracted square root can be commonly used in a divider and a square root extractor to realize an effective and high performance arithmetic unit. Further, a radix of a division operation can be set higher than that of a square root extraction operation, and division processing performance can be largely improved. Further, in the square root extraction operation, the partial remainder previously shifted 1 bit to the right is prepared, and another partial remainder is operated from the 1 bit shifted partial remainder to set the shift bit number to the same as 2 bits shift to the left for the division operation. Hence, the twos complement converter can be commonly used in the division operation and the square root extraction operation without adding the selector in the return path of the data. Therefore, the lowering of the processing speed in the division operation and the square root extraction operation can be prevented in the division and square root arithmetic unit of the present invention.
