Abstract: An improved process for preparing a diaryl carbonate
from a diaryl oxalate in a liquid phase by decarbonylation
utilizes a reaction vessel composed of two or more
reaction chambers which are connected in series. The
process is composed of the steps of continuously introducing
the diaryl oxalate and an organic phosphorus compound
having a trivalent or pentavalent phosphorus atom
and at least one carbon-phosphorus bonding into the first
chamber and continuously recovering a reaction mixture
mainly containing the diaryl carbonate from the last
chamber under the condition that a mixture of the diaryl
oxalate and the organic phosphorus compound is heated in
the reaction chambers, while discharging carbon monoxide
released from the mixture.

Abstract: A compact fluid control valve effects a reliable fluid flow
regulation by the use of a shape memory alloy wire. The valve
comprises a barrel (10) provided with a base member (20) and a valve body (30). The
valve body is cooperative with the base member to define therebetween a
valve opening in the course of an internal flow path through the valve
for a fluid. The valve body is movable towards and away from the base
member to vary the valve opening for regulating the flow of the fluid.
A bias spring (50) urges the valve body for varying the valve opening in one
direction. The shape memory alloy wire (60) connects the valve body to the
barrel to move the valve body against the bias spring for varying the
valve opening when heated. The barrel has anchor members (12) for
securing the ends of the wire. The anchor members are disposed on the
exterior of the barrel and at such a portion that the wire stretches
between the barrel and the valve body exteriorly of the barrel in an
overlapping relation with a major portion of the barrel along the axial
length thereof.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif de vérification des limites de matrice qui est configuré de façon à vérifier qu'un élément désigné dans une matrice d'information se trouve compris entre une valeur limite maximale de taille de matrice et une valeur limite minimale de taille de matrice. Le dispositif de vérification des limites de matrice de l'invention comporte un élément de mémoire associative stockant et restituant une pluralité de valeurs limites de matrices. Chacune des différentes valeurs limites de matrices est associé à l'une des différentes instructions d'accès à la matrice. Un module d'entrée compare simultanément l'identificateur d'instruction d'accès à la matrice et au moins une partie de chacune des rubriques de désignation de matrice stockées, l'identificateur d'instruction d'accès désignant une instruction d'accès de matrice. Un module de sortie est configuré pour fournir, sous forme de valeurs de sortie de limites d'une matrice, l'une des différentes valeurs de limites de matrice stockées dans l'un des différents emplacements mémoire de l'élément de mémoire associé. Un premier comparateur, qui effectue une comparaison entre la valeur de l'élément désigné et la valeur limite maximum de l'indice de matrice, délivre un signal de violation de maximum si la valeur de l'élément est supérieure à la valeur limite maximale de taille de matrice. Un second comparateur, qui fait une comparaison entre la valeur de l'élément et la valeur limite minimale de la taille de matrice, délivre un signal de violation de minimum si la valeur de élément est inférieure à la valeur limite minimale de la matrice. Tout signal de violation de maximum et de violation de minimum génère une condition d'exception.

Abstract: Dispositif permettant d'estimer directement et visuellement les dimensions d'objets difficiles à atteindre, comme des organes ou des corps étrangers à l'intérieur du corps d'un être humain ou d'un animal. L'invention repose sur le fait que l'oeil humain apprécie avec une précision frappante la taille d'un objet lorsqu'il la compare avec celle d'un autre objet dont les dimensions sont proches. La comparaison s'effectue de préférence sur une image radiographique sur laquelle l'objet à mesurer et l'élément de comparaison sont reproduits à proximité l'un de l'autre et, de préférence, à la même échelle. Un dispositif est prévu pour fixer l'élément de comparaison sur la surface ou à l'extérieur du corps de l'être humain ou de l'animal. L'élément de comparaison (10) est délimité par une série de surfaces de révolution de tailles différentes, dans une fourchette correspondant à celle des objets à mesurer. La forme des surfaces de révolution est adaptée à la forme des objets à mesurer. C'est ainsi que des surfaces cylindriques de révolution sont choisies si les objets à mesurer sont cylindriques et que l'on choisit la surface sphérique de révolution si les objets à mesurer ont une forme globulaire.
