Title: A detonator member and a method of its use
Inventor: FRENCH JOHN ROBERT
IPC: F41H11/16
Filed: 1999-03-05
Abstract: In the field of landmine clearance there is a need for a detonator member that is effective in detonating mines whilst protecting any apparatus to which it is secured. The invention relates to a detonator member (10) comprising two inclined plates (12, 13) secured together along a common edge to define a fulcrum (14). The plates are pivotably suspended from a further, moveable member (22) so that the axis of pivoting lies forward of the fulcrum (14). On downward movement of the further member (22) the fulcrum engages the ground (23) and causes the plates to pivot so that one of them (12) lies flat on the ground (23). This plate (12) detonates any landmines under it. During the detonation the plate (12) flips upwardly to a substantially vertical, blast-deflecting position. The other plate (13) limits the travel of the blast deflecting plate (12), by virtue of contact with the ground (23).

Title: Free-space thermo-optical devices
Inventor: MOROZOV VAL
IPC: G02F1/01
Filed: 2001-06-25
Abstract: A thermo-optical device to alter the direction and/or intensity of a light beam is described. In the thermo-optical device, a first material in contact with a second material defines an interface therebetween. The first and second materials have disparate thermo-optical coefficients such that, at a first temperature, the refractive indices of the two materials are the same and, at a second temperature, the refractive index of one material is less than the refractive index of the other material. At the first temperature, when the two refractive indices are equal, a light beam incident on the interface is transmitted through the interface without refraction. At the second temperature, the light beam propagating through one of the material, if incident on the interface at an appropriate angle, will be reflected off, instead of transmitted through, the interface.

Filed: 2001-06-15
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé destiné à induire l'expression d'un gène sous la régulation d'un opérateur à un site de service auto-régulateur d'actinomycètes. Ledit procédé consiste à conférer les caractères d'un répresseur et d'un opérateur formant un système induisant une expression génique avec l'utilisation de l'auto-régulateur d'actinomycètes comme inducteur vers une plante par transfert génique, puis à fournir l'auto-régulateur d'actinomycètes à la plante ainsi transformée. Par ce procédé, on peut exprimer un gène voulu à un point particulier d'un site voulu, rendant ainsi possible la production, dans la plante, d'un métabolite, ce qui défavorise même la croissance de la plante. Ce procédé permet également de réguler la fertilité et, par conséquent, d'empêcher que les plantes transformées se répandent aux alentours.
