Title: Pompe aspirante a jet
Inventor: STROHL WILLI
IPC: F02M37/02
Filed: 1996-01-11
Abstract: La présente invention concerne une pompe aspirante à jet (20), qui est placée dans le réservoir d'un véhicule et sert à pomper du carburant dans un récipient (12) d'où un groupe de refoulement l'aspire. La pompe aspirante à jet (20) comporte une buse (22) raccordée à une conduite de carburant (18) et un tube mélangeur (26) monté en aval de cette dernière à une certaine distance. Entre le tube mélangeur (26) et la buse (22) est formée une ouverture (27) vers le réservoir (10). Le tube (26), traversant une paroi (13), fait saillie dans le récipient (12) et, dans sa partie terminale (28) placée dans le récipient (12), il présente, à sa partie périphérique supérieure, une ouverture (30) en forme de fente. Le carburant qui sort de la buse (22) peut se vaporiser s'il est fortement échauffé, de sorte qu'il se forme des bulles de gaz qui pénètrent aussi dans le tube mélangeur (26). Ces bulles peuvent s'échapper par la fente (30), si bien qu'elles ne perturbent pas, ou peu, la marche de la pompe aspirante à jet (20).

IPC: B65D35/08
Filed: 1996-03-19
Abstract: The invention relates to containers, especially to single-dosage rectal tubes. To eliminate return after squeezing with ensuing pump/suction effect, the tube body is divided into two part-walls with relatively different wall thicknesses. The part-wall with the larger thickness serves as a support for the thinner part-wall and the thickness relationship prevents return to the original shape.

IPC: H03M7/30
Filed: 1996-01-16
Abstract: An encoder (200) and decoder (400) or (500) increase the efficiency of handling duplicate strings in the input data. The encoder continues its string matching procedure until a longest matched string is found, without terminating prematurely due to matching on a last added string. In encoding duplicate strings, the encoder may thus send the codeword corresponding to the free entry in the decoder. The decoder, upon receiving the codeword corresponding to its free entry, recovers the encoded string by outputting the string from the immediately previous codeword followed by the innovation character of that string.

IPC: C09K8/32

Abstract: On a mis au point un système de fluides à base d'huiles, en utilisant des particules de sel ayant une certaine répartition granulométrique, une émulsion d'huile ou d'eau dans l'huile, un agent de suspension pour suspendre les particules de sel dans l'huile, ainsi qu'un agent régulateur de filtration. Il est important que les particules de sel soient réparties dans une large plage granulométrique, pour empêcher efficacement la filtration ou les pertes de fluides dans la formation géologique. Etant donné que les particules du gâteau de filtre n'envahissent pas le puits de forage, aucune pointe de pression élevée ne se produit pendant le retrait du gâteau de filtre. Cette pointe de pression élevée, lorsqu'elle se produit, indique la présence d'un dommage à la formation géologique et à la surface du puits de forage, dommage qui, de façon générale, réduit la perméabilité globale de la formation géologique. Les propriétés rhéologiques du fluide utilisé sont telles que celui-çi peut servir dans un grand nombre d'applications où il est souhaitable de protéger la perméabilité d'origine de la formation géologique. Ces applications sont notamment le forage, la fracturation et la régulation des pertes de fluide pendant les opérations d'achèvement, telles que le gravillonnage ou le reconditionnement du puits de forage.

Title: Technique d'autoverification incorporee sans baisse des performances
Inventor: NJINDA CHARLES A
IPC: G01R31/28
Filed: 1996-04-09
Abstract: Méthode de sélection dans une configuration de circuits d'un groupe optimal de bascules à convertir en éléments d'autovérification incorporée, réduisant au minimum la baisse des performances résultant de cette conversion. Selon la présente invention, les retards supplémentaires introduits dans la configuration de circuits résultant de chaque conversion d'une bascule en élément d'autovérification incorporée sont intégrés dans le choix de ces bascules à convertir, c'est-à-dire que seules les bascules pouvant être converties sans entraîner de dépassement de temps sont considérées comme adaptées pour cette conversion. Un groupe minimum de ces bascules 'adaptées', qui interrompt l'ensemble des cycles logiques du circuit, est ensuite choisi pour la conversion en éléments d'autovérification incorporée. Ainsi, non seulement les méthodes de sélection selon l'invention réduisent l'augmentation de la surface de silicium résultant de la conversion en éléments d'autovérification, tout en permettant une détection d'erreur maximum, mais elles aboutissent aussi à une baisse de performances minimale.

Abstract: For novel media services such as the transmission of Electronic Program Guides (EPG), the use of teletext as a transmission medium is considered. It is efficient to refrain from the transmission, in the EPG signal, of those program data which are already present in regular teletext pages. The invention provides a method and device for assigning classification codes (program type, parental rating) to these programs. The classification is transmitted in the form of triplets in extension packets, for example packet X/26. The packets may form part of the regular teletext pages but also of the EPG data signal. In the latter case, a page linking mechanism is also provided.

Title: Rate sensors
Inventor: BEARDMORE GEOFFREY
IPC: G01C19/56
Filed: 1996-11-20
Abstract: A rate sensor has a tine (2) cut from a silicon substrate (1) and resiliently mounted by two integral flexure beams (5 and 6). An electrostatic actuator (8) drives the tine to vibrate in its plane. The tine supports two tunnel pick-offs in the form of spikes (21 and 21') projecting from the tine, the tips of the spikes being positioned below a pick-off plate (22). In operation, the plate (22) is moved down until it is closely spaced from the spikes and a tunnelling current is produced. One spike (21) is positioned below a recess (52) so that there is a sharp fall in current when the spike passes beneath the recess, this signal being used to indicate the amplitude and frequency of vibration. The tunnelling current output from the other spike (21') indicates the separation from the plate. Rotation of the sensor about an axis (y) in the plane of vibration of the tine (2) causes displacement of the tine at right angles, which is sensed by the tunnel pick-off.

IPC: G05F3/28
Filed: 1997-06-17
Abstract: The voltage regulator circuit delivers a variable current at constant voltage, using series transistors (T1,T2) controlled by an output sensor and a feedback circuit. The energy dissipated over the series transistors is partly taken to the exterior of the regulator by an electric circuit, reducing the power that must be dissipated by the regulator circuit itself. A resistor (R1) is connected between the junction of the two series regulator transistors and the output. By controlling the series transistors part of the current can be diverted round the second transistor through the resistance. A third transistor (T3) is connected as a current mirror to the first (series) transistor (T1) and provides an input to control the extent of current diversion.
