Inventor: STEFFAHN PETER
IPC: H01M2/12
Filed: 1997-03-03
Abstract: A lead=acid battery has an electrolyte which is sealed in the separate chambers (18, 19) forming the cells filled via screwed (5) stopper assemblies (4). Each stopper (4) comprises a base (9) pierced (21) to allow the venting of gas to a valve (8) having a seat (10) held closed up to a preset pressure by an elastomer disc (11) and stem (13) attached to a carrier tube (12). The tube (12) has holes (15) which on over-pressure flexing of the disc (11) conduct the gas via a filter (16) into a common gallery (3) in the battery cover (1) and there to atmosphere. The stoppers (4) are rendered gas-tight via the seals (6, 7) and their removal is prevented by a toothed locking ring (not shown).

Title: Transmission and control with output shaft braking
Inventor: ROBINSON TIMOTHY ALAN
IPC: B60W30/18
Filed: 1997-10-06
Abstract: A power transmission has an electro-hydraulic control for
selectively establishing a plurality of clutches (C1, C2) and brakes (C3, C4,
C5) for controlling a plurality of planetary gearsets (P1, P2, P3) to establish
the transmission drive ratios. During a vehicle stopped condition, two brakes
(C5, C4) are engaged to restrain rotation of two members (CA2, R2) of one
of the planetary gearsets. This results in braking of the transmission output
shaft.

Abstract: A method of melting treatment of radioactive solid wastes
(16) using a cold crucible induction melting furnace (10)
wherein, even when the wastes contain various kinds of
substances such as metals in a mixed state, the separation of the
metals from the wastes and the operation of disposing of the
separated metals in to specific position in the furnace are not
required, and the whole of the wastes can be melted efficiently
and quickly. A hot plasma is injected from above the solid
wastes charged into the furnace (10) towards the wastes to heat
and melt a portion of the wastes initially and then a high-frequency
current is supplied to a high-frequency coil
surrounding the melting furnace (10) to induction-heat the
wastes. The hot plasma may be used as an auxiliary heating
source during the induction heating.

Abstract: In order to progressively transmit a digital image (IM), a method for coding the image comprises the division (E1,21) of the image into vectors (V m,n ), the selection (E2,22) of a code vector (VC d ) associated with an index (A d ) for each of the image vectors, and the replacement (E2) of the image vectors by the indices associated with the selected code vectors, in order to produce a plane of indices (PI) representing the image. The method comprises the steps of sub-sampling (E3,24) the plane of indices (PI) into sub-planes of indices (SPI 1  to SPI F ) respectively comprising indices selected from the plane of indices, and ordering (E4,25) the sub-planes of indices according to a predetermined order before transmitting them.

Abstract: The valve has a seating (36), main body (2) and spring (5) which produces compressive force exerted on the seating independently of the pressure from the pressurised medium. The medium exerts pressure on an appliance (3,6,7,8), inside the valve housing (1) which has a rigid middle part (12), operating in conjunction with the valve body (2) for restricting the medium's pressure. The appliance has at least one elastically deformable, cylindrical hollow body (3) in the form of a thin-walled, elastically deformable pipe (31). The housing and valve body are joined by at least one membrane (4) to form a compartment (35) inside the valve housing. One side of the hollow body is closed by the valve body, and the other by a closure element (32). The valve body forms a smooth or conical seating and has an axial hole through it (30).

Le client est informé du numéro d'identification aléatoire comme faisant partie du formulaire qu'il utilise pour adhérer au système ou au service. Le procédé actuellement utilisé d'impression et de délivrance de numéros d'identification personnel imprimés dans des plis de numéros d'identification personnel (PIN) n'est par conséquent pas nécessaire. Le code confidentiel est remis au client de manière que le code soit créé et imprimé à l'avance sur le formulaire à envoyer au client. Le numéro d'identification personnel (5) et le code du formulaire (4) sont cachés dans le formulaire de manière qu'il est impossible d'établir un lien entre ceux-ci et le client destiné à recevoir le formulaire. Lors du remplissage de la partie (1) du formulaire à renvoyer, le client détache la partie (2) contenant le PIN. Cette partie (1) restant dans sa possession permet au client de trouver son numéro d'identification personnel (5) en enlevant le cache dissimulant la partie imprimée. Le client renvoie la partie (1) du formulaire qu'il a remplie, et à l'aide du code du formulaire (4) qu'il contient, le système de données peut établir le numéro d'identification personnel (5) remis au client.

position of the through-bolt 13 is controlled to thereby
considerably reduce a moment component when the through-bolt 13
is axially fastened to prevent an occurrence of looseness of
the through-bolt 13 and which prevents output from lowering, is
small in size, is excellent in the resistance to vibration, and
is low in noise.
