Abstract: The invention relates to a device for reading chip cards, comprising at least one slot for accommodating a chip card, said slot having at least one read head. The inventive device can be introduced into the support slot of a computer in such a way that it is removable, said support slot being designed to accommodate modules. The aim of the invention is to enable two chip cards to be read at the same time. To this end, two rear boundary walls are provided in the chip card slot for receiving at least two chip cards, in two different planes. The two boundary walls are each positioned at a different distance from the opening to the chip card slot so that two chip cards arranged one directly above the other can be introduced into said chip card slot to different degrees.

IPC: H01M50/411
Filed: 1998-01-22
Abstract: Conventional batteries are disadvantageous in that a firm
outer case must be used to maintain an electrical connection between
electrodes, which has been an obstacle to size reduction. Those
in which each electrode and a separator are joined with an adhesive
resin suffer from conflict between adhesive strength and battery
characteristics, particularly ion conductivity and internal
resistivity. To solve these problems, it is an object of the
invention to reduce resistance between electrodes, i.e., internal
resistance of a battery to improve battery characteristics while
securing both insulation function against electron conduction and
ion conductivity between electrodes and also to maintain adhesive
strength enough to firmly join the electrodes thereby to provide
a light, compact and thin battery. 
     The internal resistivity can be diminished by joining a
positive electrode and a negative electrode with an adhesive resin
layer having at least one adhesive resin layer containing a filler.
The adhesive resin layer has pores, which are filled with an
electrolytic solution to exhibit sufficient ion conductivity
thereby to improve battery characteristics and to retain adhesive
strength.

Title: Production et purification d'acide succinique
Inventor: BERGLUND KRIS A
IPC: C12P7/46
Filed: 1998-08-18
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé hautement efficace qui sert à produire et à récupérer de l'acide succinique pur contenu dans un sel de succinate et qui implique un usage minimum de réactifs additionnels et ne génère virtuellement pas de sous-produits résiduels et qui permet le recyclage interne des valeurs basiques et acides. Ce procédé consiste à former du succinate de diammonium, soit en utilisant une substance à base d'ion ammonium, pour maintenir le pH neutre à huit dans le fermenteur ou en remplaçant par le cation ammonium le cation du sel de succinate créé dans le fermenteur. Le succinate de diammonium peut être amené à réagir avec un ion sulfate, par exemple par combinaison du succinate de diammonium avec du bisulfate d'ammonium et/ou de l'acide sulfurique à un pH suffisamment bas pour produire de l'acide sulfinique et du sulfate d'ammonium. Le sulfate d'ammonium est avantageusement soumis à un craquage thermique pour être converti en ammoniac et un bisulfate d'ammonium. L'acide succinique peut être purifié dans une phase de dissolution au méthanol. Diverses phases de filtrage, de reflux et de recyclage peuvent également être utilisées.
