Abstract: A method for providing access to sources of at least one telephone network and at least one IP based network over a TV distribution network. The method uses the IP protocols as an internal multiplexing technique and transport mechanism. The IP handling takes places between a TV IP network terminal, connected to a user end of the TV distribution network, via an IP access server, connected to a TV transmitter end of the TV distribution network, to a telephony server and a router, respectively. The method and system allows for simultaneous datacom and telephone traffic within one network terminal, within the TV distribution network, or access to connected service providers of telephone and IP based networks.

Abstract: Impact tool is operated with reciprocating drive between end stops and is guided by one or more sleeve bearings inside an outer guide (10). Each bearing comprises an inner sleeve (16) which guides the shaft of the tool and an outer sleeve (17) of elastic material which slides inside the guide. The outer sleeve is contoured (17b) on the outside to allow a tilt action of the tool inside the support guide, thus preventing jamming of the tool and prolonging bearing life. The bearing tilts about in either direction about a central plane (18).

Abstract: A conically ported liquid ring pump has one or more port structures with cone angles in the range from 15 degrees to 75 degrees. These cone angles are substantially greater than previously used cone angles (most commonly about 8 degrees). The large cone angles of this invention give the fluid flowing between the cone and the rotor significant components of both radial and axial velocity. Large cone angles also allow the port structure(s) to be made axially shorter, which has a number of important advantages such as shortening the unsupported length of the rotor shaft. These attributes of the present pumps are helpful for such purposes as allowing the length-to-diameter ratios of the pumps to be economically increased. In addition, the pumps of this invention retain many of the desirable attributes of conically ported pumps. <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention concerns a method of increasing the available amount of acid at PAM and NAM in lead battery electrodes and still retain a short distance between the electrode surfaces. With mechanical support of PAM (for example in tubular batteries) in spite of low PAM densities it is possible to almost completely prevent the formation of mud. Spaces for acid should therefore be mechanically strong and supporting in order to retain unchanged PAM volume. In order to prevent that the porous bodies are filled with lead powder, lead sulphate or other components during manufacture, they may be impregnated with a filler material such as for example plastic or wax which is removed after forming the electrodes or after any other suitable process. The filler material may also be an inorganic salt which dissolves only at filling with acid leaving a desired porosity.

Abstract: Manufacture of chocolate hollowware by forming a shell in a shaped foil that will later become the packing A foil, preferably 0,2 - 0,3 mm thick polypropylene, is warmed and deep drawn into dies for one set of chocolate halves (possibly 4 x 13). Another set of dies is similarly prepared for the matching halves. The convex faces are then either printed or labels are attached to them. The foils are placed in solid support blocks and filled with an accurately determined amount of chocolate so that, as a set of cooled punches is lowered into the chocolate, a shell of uniform thickness is formed without thinning or excessive overflow. The filled foils are now cooled and the process can be repeated if a second, perhaps differently colored, layer is required. If required, items can then be placed inside the shell. The two halves, in their support blocks, are brought together to connect the two foils. The foils are welded together where flat surfaces overlap and individual articles are separated by a cutting die. The foil is now the packing for the article.

Abstract: A method for producing can bodies made of sheet metal for the manufacture of cans includes a step of bringing together and placing one on top of the other of two sheet metal strips. The sheet metal strips, which are placed one on top of the other, are joined by means of several joint welds which extend continuously in the longitudinal direction of the strip through continuous moving of the sheet metal strips past a laser welding device which has several laser heads arranged at corresponding mutual spacings. The sheet metal strips, which are welded together, are longitudinally cut by laser cutting along each weld joint in order to produce several adjacent flat tubes. The welding and the longitudinal cutting are effected simultaneously with one laser head respectively.

Abstract: L'invention concerne des systèmes de communication qui peuvent inclure des systèmes de communication mobile à base cellulaire, des systèmes de communication à satellites multiples ou des systèmes de satellites à faisceaux multiples, qui demandent des procédés fiables de transfert entre cellules, entre faisceaux ou entre satellites. Les mesures récemment effectuées sur un système AMCR montrent que le système se trouve en état de transfert pendant un temps compris entre 30 % et 50 % de la durée moyenne d'un appel. De ce fait, la fiabilité du système lors des transferts constitue l'un des paramètres principaux de ses performances et devient finalement un facteur de sa capacité en général. La présente invention propose avantageusement de nouvelles techniques améliorées destinées à effectuer le transfert dans des systèmes de communication cellulaires, à faisceaux multiples ou à satellites multiples. L'invention allie le mécanisme de transfert sans coupure et une technique de combinaison de diversité de code (qui combine des signaux provenant de sources multiples), une technique de combinaison de paquets (qui combine des signaux multiples) et un algorithme de décodage itératif (par exemple, celui de Codage Turbo (502)).
