Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé, un programme informatique et un organe de commande de fonctionnement d'un réservoir à dépression (6), installé dans un moteur à combustion interne d'un véhicule automobile, pour un dispositif servo (8, 10, 11) du moteur à combustion interne, lequel dispositif servo est relié à une tubulure d'admission (1) du moteur à combustion interne et à une pompe aspirante électrique (30). La pression régnante dans le réservoir à dépression (6) est déterminée à l'aide d'un modèle, dans lequel des flux massiques sont amenés au réservoir à dépression (6), lorsqu'au moins un dispositif servo (8, 10, 11) est actionné, des flux massiques sont évacués du réservoir à dépression (6), lorsque la pression régnante dans la tubulure d'admission (1) est inférieure à la pression régnante dans le réservoir à dépression (6) et la pompe aspirante électrique (30) est sous tension. La pression totale régnante dans le réservoir à dépression (6) est calculée à partir du bilan massique de ces flux massiques.

Abstract: The invention pertains to a method and a device for desalting water by reverse osmosis, particularly for desalting seawater, in which saltwater is introduced under a first pressure into a pressure-compensation device and conducted from pressure-compensation device at a second, higher pressure into a membrane module, wherein desalted water and concentrated saltwater are conducted out of membrane module, wherein the concentrated saltwater conducted out of membrane module is continuously introduced at roughly second pressure into pressure-compensation device and used there to apply roughly second pressure to saltwater introduced into pressure-compensation device and to introduce saltwater into membrane module, and wherein the introduction of concentrated saltwater into pressure-compensation device and the conduction of concentrated saltwater out of pressure-compensation device are accomplished by means of controlled main valves. The main valves are subject to high mechanical stresses, particularly during the opening and closing of the valves. To reduce or avoid these, it is provided according to the invention that secondary valves arranged in parallel with main valves are controlled such that load peaks during opening and/or closing of main valves are reduced.

Abstract: L'invention concerne une amorce de bande de cassette pourvue d'une ouverture auxiliaire de flexion, située dans le corps de l'amorce de bande de cassette entre les ailerons de guidage. Grâce à cette ouverture auxiliaire de flexion, l'amorce de bande de cassette peut être pliée et former un rayon étroit lorsqu'elle est tirée autour des rouleaux de guidage dans le dérouleur de bande de façon que l'amorce de bande de cassette soit convenablement installée sur les rouleaux de guidage de la bande lorsqu'elle parcourt le trajet de la bande dans le dérouleur de bande. Par ailleurs, cette ouverture auxiliaire de flexion réduit les risques de craquelures dans l'amorce de bande de cassette, à l'endroit où les ailerons de guidage entrent en contact avec le corps de l'amorce de bande de cassette, ce qui constitue un problème dans les amorces de bande de cassette actuellement disponibles.

Abstract: Selon ce procédé, une marque d'alignement (20) comprend une première zone de test (40b et 50c) et une seconde zone de test (50b et 40c) permettant de mesurer la position relative entre différentes couches d'un dispositif à semi-conducteurs. La marque d'alignement (20) est utilisée pour déterminer l'erreur de recouvrement entre les couches d'une tranche de semi-conducteur et minimiser en même temps les erreurs de précision de mesure imputables aux procédés de fabrication des semi-conducteurs. La première zone de test (40b et 50c) comprend deux sections, l'une, 40b, dans laquelle sont formées de structures de test sur une couche, l'autre, 50c, dans laquelle sont formées des structures de test sur une seconde couche. Chacune de ces structures est constituée de petites sous-structures (92). La seconde zone de test (50b et 40c) comprend deux sections similaires constituées également de petites sous-structures (92). Les première et seconde zones de test sont configurées de sorte que la section de chacune d'elles formée sur une couche soit adjacente à la section de l'autre zone qui est formée sur l'autre couche. En formant chacune des structures périodiques de sous-structures plus petites, il est possible d'obtenir une mesure d'erreur d'alignement plus précise. En variante, l'invention porte sur un procédé d'utilisation de la marque d'alignement visant à obtenir une mesure de recouvrement.

Abstract: Restoring a mass storage device 12, including the corresponding data blocks 20 stored thereon, to a state in which it existed at a prior instant in time to minimize the data loss caused by data blocks 20 becoming corrupt or lost. After a mirrored or backup copy has been made, data blocks 40 that are to be overwritten in response to a write request are stored in a preservation memory 14 prior to being overwritten. The data blocks 40 stored in the preservation memory 14 are time-stamped to designate the chronological order by which the data blocks 40 were overwritten. If data becomes corrupted, the data blocks 40 of the presentation memory 14 are applied to the corrupted data 20 in reverse chronological order until such time that a valid, non-corrupted set of data obtained. In this manner, data more recent than that associated with the full mirrored or backup copy can be reconstructed.

Title: Rubber compounds that contain gels and inorganic peroxides
Inventor: OBRECHT WERNER
IPC: B60C1/00
Filed: 2001-11-02
Abstract: The invention relates to rubber compounds comprised of at least one rubber that contains double bonds, of rubber gels, of inorganic peroxide additives and, optionally, of additional fillers and rubber auxiliary agents. The inventive rubber compounds are characterized by a good processability (compound viscosity ML 1+4/100  DEG C < 60 ME) when in an uncross-linked state, by improved mechanical properties when in a vulcanized state, especially with regard to the product of the modulus at 100 % elongation and the elongation at break (S100 x D), and by improved tensile strengths. In addition, the vulcanizates produced from the inventive rubber compounds has a lower density, which has an advantageous effect on the weight of the rubber bodies made from the rubber compounds. The vulcanizates are suited for producing conventional rubber articles and for tire component parts.
