Abstract: L'invention a pour but de disposer de moyens de réglage du patinage synchrone des roues dans une locomotive dont les roues sont commandées par au moins un moteur de traction (26a-26c) recevant son énergie d'un moteur (16) entraînant une génératrice (18). Le réglage du patinage des roues dans les dispositifs connus entraîne des frais et une complexité accrus en raison de la présence de détecteurs, nécessaires pour déterminer la vitesse réelle de la locomotive. Dans la présente invention, un microprocesseur (10) avec contrôle à programmation est utilisé pour la détection et la régulation du patinage synchrone des roues. L'intensité et la tension du courant de la génératrice sont mesurées et utilisées dans une relation empirique pour calculer une vitesse réelle de la locomotive. Un retard du premier ordre de la vitesse réelle de la locomotive est calculé et comparé à la vitesse calculée de la locomotive. Si les valeurs comparées diffèrent de plus d'une valeur de référence prédéterminée, on est en présence d'une situation de patinage synchrone et la puissance de la génératrice est réduite d'une valeur prédéterminée. La puissance de la génératrice (18) est réduite de façon croissante jusqu'à ce que la situation de patinage synchrone ne soit plus détectée. Le coût de la régulation du patinage des roues se trouve réduit du fait qu'il n'est pas nécessaire d'avoir des détecteurs pour détecter la vitesse réelle de la locomotive.

Abstract: A substantially entirely fibrous ceramic which may have dual porosity of both micro and macro pores. Total porosity may be 60-75 % by volume. A method of spraying a slurry perpendicularly to an ambient stream of air is disclosed along with a method of removing binders without altering the fiber morphology. Adding fine ceramic particulates to the green ceramic fibers enhances the sintering characteristics of the fibers. The ceramic is useful as a cathode (12) in a fuel cell (10).

Abstract: Dans une sonde lambda capable d'être chauffée, la tension de la sonde est mesurée tout d'abord lorsque le chauffage est coupé, puis lorsque le chauffage est en marche. Cela permet d'obtenir une différence entre les deux tensions; lorsque cette différence dépasse une valeur seuil prédéterminée, un signal en dérivation est émis, indiquant que la sonde n'est pas encore prête à être mise en service. Sinon, on examine de la manière habituelle l'aptitude à la régulation.

Abstract: In order to provide high fill and pour rates, while still providing effective treatment of water to remove pollutants from it (such as organic contaminants, protozoa, etc.), a water pollutant removal material (14) is disposed in a low volume configuration within a container (10), having a void volume of about 40-90% (e.g. 60-90%). The water pollutant removal material may be activatad carbon loaded on a non-woven cloth (15), loose fiber or chip, paper, foam, felt or like fibrous low density material. The activated carbon impregnated materials may be placed in the container, (e.g. by rolling up an impregnated sheet into a spiral roll (16)) and may be disposed within a retention filter (20) which is spaced from the interior walls of the container. Biocide material (e.g. an iodine compound) may be used in addition to or in place of activated carbon, in a low volume configuration.

Abstract: A method for the selection of proper colors for individual wearers depending upon the underlying color of the skin of the wearer and the intensity therefor. The method includes the steps of providing a group of classifications of color temperature, preferably four in number, and using a spectrophotometer, or a draping technique of material to determine the color temperatures of the skin of the user, and a determination of the classification in which those color temperatures fall is made. A predetermined group of colors are classified within each category, so that upon determination of the proper classification for an individual user, reference may be made to the proper predetermined group of colors as a guide for appropriate apparel, cosmetic make up, or hair tint selection.

Abstract: The container (1) consists of an upper part (5) and a lower part (6) and is divised by an intermediate piece (7) into two separate, water-tight compartments (8, 9). One compartment contains a collapsed, inflatable cushion the size, shape and fittings of which are adapted to the compartment of the container in which it is housed. The other compartment may contain gold, jewelry and other objects. The water-tight container may house various types of cushion for different purposes, such as beach cushions, life-saving cushion for sporting accidents, small life-jackets, etc. A screw connection (10) or a suitable water-tight plug-in connection provides a water-tight connection between the two parts and the intermediate piece. These connections are designed so that, if desired, the intermediate piece can be removed and the upper and lower parts can be connected directly to each other to form a single compartment of approximately twice the size.

Abstract: This invention relates to improved polymer-pressure sensitive adhesive combinations, particularly in the form of laminates, and methods of producing same. This invention improves the bond strength of the pressure sensitive adhesive to the polymer layer by priming the polymer surface with a curable urethane primer before applying the pressure sensitive adhesive to the polymer surface. If the polymer surface is not "active" to the curable urethane primer, the polymer surface is first activated with a silicon-containing treating agent. The laminates of this invention have superior bond strength, especially longterm bond strength. Of particular interest are the embodiments of this invention wherein the polymer is a silicone foam and the pressure sensitive adhesive is either acrylic or silicone adhesive.

Abstract: Les lignes les plus appropriées sont identifiées comme lignes parmi toutes les lignes concevables de deux fenêtres rectangulaires (12, 14) avec l'hypothèse que la poussière et les rayures font partie des lignes à un stade préparatoire. La valeur de gradient et la valeur de caractérisation de chaque ligne sont déterminées et chaque fenêtre rectangulaire est convertie en un parallélogramme en suivant ce gradient. La valeur de gradient et la valeur caractéristique de la ligne sont déterminées au stade de la détection, au moyen de cette fenêtre parallélogrammatique. Ainsi, même lorsque les données d'image sont très mauvaises, la ligne peut être détectée et un cordon de soudure, un bord d'un objet à détecter, etc, peuvent être détectés avec précision.

Abstract: Fitted into the neck (14) of a container (16) is a securing part (12), in the central opening (20) of which there is located the mixer part (26) with mixing chambers (38, 40), covered over by a screen-like refining element (48). Arranged on the refining element (48) is a disk-like valve body (58), which interacts with a ring-like valve seat (60). For discharging foam, the actuating element (70) is pressed down, until the stop (78) bears against the counter-stop (78'). As a result, the valve body (58) reaches the open position, with simultaneous bending of the refining element (48), and air is forced through the air passages (32) and liquid is forced through the liquid passage (34) into the mixing chambers (38, 40) by virtue of the positive pressure in the container (16). The foam formed there is refined upon flowing through the refining element (48). On the way to the outlet (92), the defined passage (74), the fins (68, 102), the ribs (72'), the screen (86) as well as chicanes in the annular channel (96) ensure optimum foam formation and retarding of the foam, so that the positive pressure in the container (16) does not drop abruptly when the valve arrangement is opened.
