Patent EP-2322373-A1 (EP)
Inventor: ICHIMARU TAKAHIDE
IPC: B67D7/32
Filed: 2009-07-14
Abstract: A device for preventing a fueling error reliably prevents a fueling error by accurately preventing an insertion of a small-diameter nozzle without blocking an insertion of a large-diameter nozzle whose entrance should be permitted. Even if an end of a nozzle is strongly pressed to left-and-right shutter members (22), the shutter members (22) never rotate and move in an opening direction unless the shutter members (22) slide and move to an outside of a radial direction. Thus, the structure prevents the shutter members (22) from erroneously moving to a position in which the nozzle is allowed to enter from a blocking position.

Title: Verrou optique intégré
Inventor: CAROTHERS DANIEL N
IPC: G02B6/12
Filed: 2009-08-27
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des techniques de commutation optique et de commande de données, sans l’interaction de vitesses de commutation électronique. Dans un exemple de mode de réalisation, un verrou optique à cavité commune peut tenir un état optique pendant une période de temps prolongée, et son fonctionnement est commandé optiquement. La commande de phase optique permet qu’une commutation modale optique soit utilisée entre deux cavités optiques communes, à l’aide de signaux optiques incidents et de la façon dont les cavités manipulent la phase dans ceux-ci pour se verrouiller dans l’une ou l’autre configuration, formant de ce fait un verrou optique. Le verrou optique est mis en œuvre d’une façon intégrée, notamment dans un environnement CMOS.

Title: Systèmes et procédés de stabilisation d'un article en phylon
Inventor: LIEBENO BRET
IPC: B29D35/00
Filed: 2009-09-28
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication dans un environnement de fabrication modularisé pour stabiliser un article en phylon qui est produit en utilisant une presse à chaud. À l'origine, le procédé comprend les étapes consistant à immerger un article en phylon dans une première cuve contenant un fluide et retirer l'article en phylon après une exposition à ce fluide. En général, la semelle est chauffée dès sa production dans la presse à chaud lorsqu'elle est placée dans la première cuve. L'immersion dans la première cuve a une action de refroidissement sur l'article en phylon, stabilisant ainsi le phylon chauffé. L'article en phylon peut être ensuite placé dans une seconde cuve contenant un fluide, et retiré après exposition à ce fluide. Le fluide de la première cuve peut être à une température comparable ou supérieure à la température du fluide de la seconde cuve. Exposer l'article en phylon chauffé de manière répétée au fluide des cuves diminue de manière incrémentielle le volume de l'article.

Abstract: A method and device are useful for enabling a trust relationship using an unexpired public key infrastructure (PKI) certificate, where a current status of the PKI certificate is unavailable. The method includes determining at a relying party that a certificate status update for the PKI certificate is unavailable (step 905). Next, in response to the certificate status update being unavailable, a tolerable certificate status age (TCSA) for the PKI certificate is determined at the relying party based on one or more attributes associated with a certificate holder of the PKI certificate (step 910). Using the PKI certificate, a trust relationship is enabled between the relying party and the certificate holder after determining the TCSA and before an expiration of the TCSA (step 915).

Abstract: The present invention provides an improved orthopedic system for the modification of the distance between the maxilla (21) and zygoma (22). In a preferred embodiment, the system includes first and second footplates (500, 700) attached to an orthopedic device (10). The second footplate (700) is attached to the zygoma (22), with the first footplate (500) being mechanically coupled to the maxilla (21). This mechanical coupling is achieved either through attachment directly to the maxilla (21) or by attachment to a construct which itself is attached to the patient's teeth. The orthopedic device (10), which may be a distractor, allows for modification of the distance between the maxilla (21) and the zygoma (22). The entire system can advantageously be placed intra-orally within a patient. In a preferred embodiment, the device (10) does not increase in overall length (A) upon activation. In another preferred embodiment, the second footplate (700) is offset by a predetermined distance (C) from the end of the actuator (911), allowing the actuator (11) to be placed under and behind at least a portion of the zygoma (700). Methods for using this novel orthopedic system are also disclosed.
