Abstract: L'invention se rapporte à un procédé utilisé au cours de la production de fils polymères thermoplastiques pour réguler le glissement des fils sur des rouleaux sur lesquels il se produit une variation de tension. Le fil progresse le long de paires de rouleaux et entre en contact avec ces derniers dans des spires successives. Au moins l'un des rouleaux est entraîné et présente un diamètre qui varie alors que le fil progresse entre au moins deux des spires successives. Les spires entrent en contact avec les zones de contact sur la surface du rouleau entraîné pour définir chacune un angle d'enroulement total pour la spire. Le nombre de spires, ainsi que le diamètre du rouleau entraîné au niveau des zones de contact, sont choisis de façon à augmenter ou à réduire la tension, tout en empêchant qu'un angle d'enroulement à vitesse réduite, pour n'importe laquelle des spires, ne soit supérieur à 90 % environ de l'angle d'enroulement total pour la spire.

Abstract: A multiple file name referencing system stores multiple file names in a file. These multiple file names include an operating system formatted file name and an application formatted file name. When an operating system formatted file name is created or renamed, the multiple file name referencing system automatically generates an application formatted file name having a potentially different format from, but preserving the extension of, the operating system formatted name. The multiple file name referencing system similarly generates an operating system formatted name upon creation or renaming of an application formatted name. A B-tree is provided which contains an operating system entry for the operating system formatted name and an application entry for the application formatted name, each entry containing the address of the same file to which both names refer. The multiple file name referencing system converts the operating system formatted file name to the application formatted file name by accessing the B-tree with reference to the operating system entry, and vice versa. As a result, either file name can be used to directly reference the file without requiring additional file name translation. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Procédé pour vérifier l'aptitude à fonctionner d'une installation de dégazage de réservoir d'un véhicule automobile pourvu d'un moteur à combustion interne. Cette installation de dégazage du réservoir comprend un capteur de pression monté dans le réservoir, un filtre d'adsorption relié au réservoir par l'intermédiaire d'une conduite de raccordement, ainsi qu'une soupape de dégazage du réservoir qui est reliée au filtre d'adsorption par une conduite. Dans cette installation, le filtre d'adsorption comporte une conduite de ventilation pouvant être obturée par une soupape d'arrêt. Le procédé se fonde sur le fait que le gradient de formation comme le gradient de décroissance de la dépression produite dans le réservoir, dépendent sensiblement de la même manière du niveau du réservoir. Si on prend par exemple pour grandeur d'évaluation le quotient du gradient de formation et du gradient de décroissance, celui-ci est de ce fait pratiquement indépendant du niveau, ce qui permet d'établir une comparaison très fiable avec la valeur seuil. Si le quotient du gradient de formation et du gradient de décroissance est supérieur à la valeur seuil, l'installation est estimée comme étant non apte à fonctionner. Cette manière de procéder permet de détecter des fuites de l'ordre de 2 mm de diamètre.

Abstract: A computer keyboard according to a preferred construction has multiple non-conductive keys and at least one conductive key mounted in a keyboard housing. The conductive key includes a molded plastic key body having conductive material embedded therein. Conductive plugs are electrically coupled and mounted to the conductive key body. An electrostatic discharge pad is provided on a switch assembly positioned beneath the keys of the keyboard. The discharge pad is coupled to ground through a path resistor. When the conductive key body is depressed to an activated position, the plugs engage the electrostatic discharge pads so that electrostatic charges of the user progressively dissipate to ground through the key body, plug, discharge pad, and path resistor. At least one of the path resistor or the plug has a resistance greater than the resistance of the conductive key body. In this manner, electrostatic charge is routinely dissipated from a computer user while insuring that the user is not shocked when he/she initially touches and operates the conductive key.

Abstract: The base stations (BS) in a multi-cellular cordless telephone system are connected to a communications system (KS) - particularly a telecommunications branch exchange, via connecting lines (VL). The base stations (BS) are arranged at a distance from one another in such a manner that synchronisation information (si) wirelessly sent out by a base station (BS) can be received at least partially in an adjacent base station (BS). Both the initial wireless synchronisation and the synchronisation during the operation is controlled by the communications system (KS) in such a manner that in each case one base station (PS) is synchronised to the synchronising information (si) sent out by an adjacent base station (BS). Compared with a synchronisation of the base stations (BS) via connecting lines (VL), phase deviations caused by delay times and different processing speeds in the circuits of the synchronising devices are avoided in the wireless synchronisation and, in addition, synchronisation of base stations (BS) covering the communications system is possible. <IMAGE>
