Patent EP-1171374-B1 (EP)
Inventor: GAGNON PIERRE
IPC: B66F13/00
Filed: 2000-04-12
Granted: 2003-08-27
Abstract: The push actuator has a fixed base which rotatably carries a selectively rotatable rotor. A horizontal band has a lower portion stacked in a helical pattern and has an upper portion engaged by the upper portion of a vertical band, to form a telescopic column. The lower portion of the vertical band is stacked in a spiral, separately from the horizontal band, the horizontal band is supported on the rotor with a helical ball support track along which a number of balls can roll and slide, to allow substantially frictionless rotation of the rotor member while the horizontal band remains rotatably stationary. A ball re-circulation unit allows the balls to circulate between the top of the track and the bottom of the track. Upon rotation of the rotor, the vertical column is formed by the horizontal band being lifted and its turns being spaced through its engagement on the rotating helical ball support track, and by each turn of the vertical band being inserted between two vertically successive turns of the horizontal band.

Abstract: The invention concerns a device (10) for treating a motor vehicle exhaust gases (G), comprising an intake tube (14) for exhaust gases (G) and a discharge tube (16) for exhaust gases (G) between which is interposed a chamber (12) for treating gases comprising gas (G) treating means (22) made of fibres. The invention is characterised in that the fibres (28) of the gas treating means have a cross-section in the shape of a crescent, in particular like that of a convex lens. The invention also concerns a method for making a unit (22), in particular tubular, produced from metal fibres forming the inventive gas (G) treating means.

Abstract: The invention relates to a wear adjustment device for a brake, especially a motor vehicle brake. The device comprises an adjusting shaft, which is mounted in a housing and is accessible from the outside at a front end. Said adjusting shaft is equipped with a head part in the accessible area, this head part enabling the transmission of a torque. The head part is configured as a separate structural part and can be coupled to the adjusting shaft in such a way that it is resistant to torsion in the axial direction of the adjusting shaft and in relation to said adjusting shaft. The head part is also provided with a predetermined breaking point which enables separation to take place when a maximum permissible torque is exceeded. This constructionally simple configuration reliably prevents the adjusting shaft from being overburdened and therefore prevents any damage to the wear adjustment device or essential parts of the break that this could otherwise cause. In the event that the head part is destroyed, the destroyed head part can be replaced by a new head part without impairing the brake as a whole.

Title: Dispositif a semi-conducteur comprenant un element de circuit haute tension
Inventor: MEEUWSEN CONSTANTINUS P
IPC: H01L29/06
Filed: 2000-05-19
Granted: 2006-07-26
Abstract: L'efficacité de dispositifs haute tension est souvent influencée par des effets de glissement de charge dans le boîtier. Afin d'éviter les dégradations qui peuvent en résulter, une purge peut être placée entre le dispositif et le boîtier. Dans la pratique, il a cependant été démontré que l'utilisation d'une purge hautement résistante peut entraîner une certaine instabilité du dispositif durant son fonctionnement. Selon l'invention, la purge (8) comprend une pluralité de zones conductrices (12, 13) réparties de sorte que, lorsqu'une tension élevée est appliquée à la purge, la purge a un profil de potentiel non linéaire, ce qui permet une harmonisation avec le profil de potentiel idéal sans purge, à la place d'un profil linéaire qui aurait été obtenu en absence desdites zones conductrices en raison des effets de charge, et aurait provoqué les effets d'instabilité mentionnés ci-dessus.

Abstract: This invention relates to apparatuses for non-contact three-dimensional measurement of bodies and methods for determining a system of coordinates for measuring points on an apparatus for non-contact three-dimensional measurement of bodies. The apparatus and the method are characterized by particular simplicity and easy implementation. Advantageously, this makes the apparatus and method applicable in production sites for special workpieces. This opens up a wide and highly cost-efficient range of uses. Before the workpieces are measured, a system of coordinates for three-dimensional matching of the workpiece geometry is determined in a first measurement. A body with known dimensions of its edges or lines is placed on any position on the turntable and measured during one rotation using the triangulation sensor. The apparatus according to the invention is thus characterized by its minimal design. The low number of movements required, i.e. one translatory movement of the triangulation sensor and a rotational movement of the turntable, results in determining the outline of a body with a minimal error of measurement.

Abstract: A penile prosthesis beneficially includes components coated with parylene in order to increase product life and reduce wear. In particular, components of the inflatable cylinder benefits from having been coated with parylene. The parylene-coated cylinder components are resistant to wear generated by pinching of the cylinder when the cylinder is in a flaccid state. The parylene-coated cylinder may be formed by masking a tube of silicone (or other appropriate material) and vapor coating the silicone tube with parylene. Further, where a double walled cylinder is used, each of two tubes making up the double wall cylinder can have their surfaces coated with parylene, thus increasing cylinder life and avoiding wear.
