Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un appareil de rétablissement d'une communication après que celle-ci ait été interrompue ou après que sa qualité se soit dégradée. Une station mobile dont la communication a été rompue analyse l'intensité des signaux des stations de base environnantes et accède à la station de base à l'intensité de signal la plus forte. La station mobile déclenche alors un nouveau rappel vers un n÷ud de services. La station de base attribue alors à la station mobile une voie de trafic et le n÷ud de services rétablit la communication. De plus, l'invention concerne un procédé de rétablissement de communications dans n'importe quel réseau de communication après que la communication soit terminée normalement.

Abstract: The present invention involves a water gun having at least one pressurizable air/water storage tank, a pressurizing mechanism, a channel of release for shooting water and a release mechanism. The improvement lies in the particular release mechanism of the water gun. This release mechanism is for controlled flow with bursting release of water. It includes a plug valve which is located within a channel of release. The release mechanism has a first spring connected to the plug valve which biases the plug valve to its first, closed position. This first spring and the internal water pressure against the plug valve constitutes the "first force."  Linkage connects a trigger to the plug valve such that activation of the trigger provides a second force which moves the linkage so as to move the plug valve from the first, closed position to the second, opened position and release of the trigger permits the first force to bias the plug valve back to its first, closed position. There is also a delay spring located within the linkage itself. When the trigger is pulled, it pulls the delay spring in a direction opposite from an against the first force. This first force is the force of the first spring as well as the internal water pressure holding the valve closed. At some point, the delay spring overcomes the forces of the first force holding the valve closed. At this point, the valve snaps open and there is rapid decrease of water pressure causing a burst of water to exit the water gun. This creates a controllable burst and a realistic trigger release.

Abstract: A quick connector assembly for coupling a flexible hose or tube to a bore formed in a housing thereby to establish fluid communication between the interiors of the hose and bore, respectively, comprises an elongate tubular male insert having one end adapted to receive and retain the tube about its periphery. The other end of the male insert includes a contoured external surface defining an external locking flange, and a pair of axially-spaced external circumferential grooves for receiving a pair of O-rings which ultimately sealingly engage complementary cylindrical sections of the housing bore upon insertion of the connector assembly thereinto. Prior to its insertion into the housing bore, the connector assembly includes a garter spring which is radially collapsed about the male insert's contoured external surface by an encompassing annular spring guide. Upon inserting the connector assembly into the housing bore, the spring guide first seats itself against the housing and the garter spring is thereafter displaced by the locking flange from its radially-collapsed pre-insertion position within the spring guide down into the housing bore and, ultimately, into a locking groove formed internally of the housing bore. The garter spring thereafter further expands to allow the locking flange to pass therethrough and then radially contracts upon full insertion of the male insert into the housing bore to lock the connector assembly therein.

Abstract: The spray mat has a plate (1) which is made from a soft material with several holes (1a) in it of various geometries. At the foot end, there is a location (1b) for the central distributor switch (4). A head cushion (5) has a hoop (6a) on the back of it for the users hand. The outlet units (2) are pressed into the holes in the plate and have a sucker underneath them. In the outlet units is a flexible fleece-like material insert. The spray characteristics are determined by the compressed air passing through the fleece. Due to their elasticity, the fibres of the fleece are tightly packed when low pressure is being used but with high pressure they become loose. With low air pressure therefore, a fine spray is produced but with high pressure, a coarse massage spray is produced.

Abstract: An electrophysiological mapping device includes an outer catheter, an inner catheter slidable within the outer catheter, and an electronic activation and recording device for electrically activating electrodes on the inner catheter and/or recording electric signals received by the electrodes. The distal end of the inner catheter comprises a plurality of arms that carry electrodes. The arms bow outwardly upon extension of the inner catheter from the outer catheter to form a three-dimensional shape. Each arm has a spine of a superelastic material. Each spine is semicircular in section, and is disposed within a portion of a flexible sheath, the electrode lead wires being disposed in the rest of the sheath. The electrodes are formed from the ends of the insulated electrode lead wires which pass through the sheath, are wrapped around the sheath and then stripped of their insulation. The proximal and distal ends of the spines are fixed to proximal and distal fittings, each having a polygonal segment having flat sides which engage the flat surfaces of the spines and a clamping ring to secure the spines to the segments. A puller wire is attached to the distal end of the three-dimensional shape and passes through the inner catheter to the proximal end of the catheter where it is connected to a deflectable control handle which applies a proximally directed force to the puller wire causing the three-dimensional shape to expand outwardly. The puller wire is coated with TEFLON inside the inner catheter and with polyurethane outside the catheter allowing the inner catheter to translate smoothly inside the inner catheter and to be sealed at its distal end against the flow of blood. Multiple electrode configurations are provided to meet specific ablation and mapping requirements.

Abstract: There is now provided a cemented carbide button for rock drilling comprising a core and a surface zone surrounding the core whereby both the surface zone and the core contains WC ( alpha -phase) and a binder phase based on at least one of cobalt, nickel or iron and that the core in addition contains  eta -phase. In addition, in the inner part of the surface zone situated close to the core, the cobalt content is higher than the nominal content of cobalt and the cobalt content in the outermost part of the surface zone is lower than the nominal and increases in the direction towards the core, up to a maximum usually at the  eta -phase core. The grain size distribution of the hard constituent in the zone with high cobalt content and in the  eta -phase core is narrow in contrast to a button of the prior art in which the grain size distribution of the hard constituent in the zone with high cobalt content and the  eta -phase core is wide. As a result, a button with improved resistance against plastic deformation is obtained. The improvement is obtained by pressing and sintering a powder mixture which has not been milled in the conventional way, but in which the binder phase has been uniformly distributed by coating the hard constituent particles with binder phase.

Abstract: The invention relates to modular elements (1) of differential construction which are particularly suitable for constructing cold-joined large bodywork or containers. All the components of the modular elements, substantially shell (2), shaping frames (3), edge profile (5) and optionally stringers (4) extending transversely to the frames and acting as buckling resistors, are cold-joined to each other, e.g. by pressure joining, punch riveting and the like. As a result, firstly rapid production with good surface quality is achieved, and secondly different materials such as iron and non-ferrous metals, fibre reinforced plastics etc. can be freely combined in hybrid structures to construct the modular elements, the local arrangement of materials in the modular element having to be adapted to the desired mechanical properties. The structure described herein contributes substantially to mechanised, highgrade software-supported manufacture in which the geometrical data for the half-finished products of the modular elements can flow directly (on-line) from a CAD construction, thus achieving at the same time currently unobtainable flexibility when producing different external shape variants even for a low level of mass production.
