Patent EP-0960001-A1 (EP)
Inventor: WAYMAN JOHN CHARLES
IPC: B23Q1/03
Filed: 1998-02-11
Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de support de pièce à usiner comprenant une matrice rangées-colonnes de barres (2), dont les extrémités libres forment une surface de support dans laquelle on peut créer des évidements en rétractant sélectivement certaines barres (2). Chaque barre (2) est reliée à un piston (3) à l'intérieur d'un cylindre (1) et chaque cylindre (1) présente un raccord supérieur (4) de pression moyenne, un raccord inférieur (7) de haute pression et un raccord intermédiaire (8) de basse pression. Un piston déclencheur (5) se trouve dans un cylindre (6), sous le piston (3). On peut faire sortir la barre (2) du cylindre (1) en appliquant une basse pression sur le raccord (8) de manière que ce dernier pousse le piston déclencheur (5) vers le bas, afin de fermer le raccord de haute pression (7). Cette basse pression contourne la lèvre d'un joint à lèvre (24) situé sur le piston déclencheur (5) et met sous pression, par un raccord (28), la face inférieure du piston (3) de façon à faire monter le piston (3) pour qu'il ne pousse plus le piston déclencheur (5) vers le bas. Par conséquent, la mise sous pression des raccords (4) et (7) provoque la montée du piston (3), sous l'effet du différentiel de pressions. Cependant, l'application en séquences de la pression sur les raccords (4, 7, 8) provoque le blocage de la barre (2) en position rétractée. Si l'on applique une pression moyenne sur le raccord (4), le piston (3) est poussé vers le haut et vient buter contre le piston déclencheur (5), qui est ainsi maintenu en position enfoncée même après que l'on a rétabli la pression au niveau du raccord de haute pression (7).

Abstract: Selon cette invention, les fibres optiques sont fabriquées au moyen d'une technique de grainage direct qui permet d'aplatir le tube de revêtement externe sur la tige interne faisant office d'âme directement pendant la phase d'étirage du procédé de fabrication de fibres optiques. Pendant la fabrication, on réalise une préforme pourvue d'un espace ou d'une cavité annulaire fermée. On réalise la préforme en alignant d'abord une tige dans le tube à gaine en utilisant un dispositif de centrage qui crée également un joint hermétique. Par ailleurs, on peut maintenir un vide d'air dans l'espace ou la cavité annulaire de cet ensemble. On applique ensuite une source thermique pour aplatir les extrémités du tube sur les extrémités correspondantes de la tige, la vitesse latérale du déplacement de la source thermique d'une extrémité à l'autre étant réglée de façon à éviter toute fissuration dans la préforme finale. On monte la préforme obtenue sur une tour d'étirement où la fibre est étirée tout en aplatissant la partie restante du tube sur la tige. Cette invention concerne également un dispositif d'alignement d'une tige dans un tube, comme celui utilisé dans le procédé de fabrication de la préforme, comprenant un corps fileté, des anneaux, des joints toriques et des anneaux fendus.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système permettant l'édition de données graphiques en fonction d'une heure relative de saisie. L'invention concerne plus particulièrement un logiciel d'édition s'utilisant avec un système de bloc-notes électronique numérique. L'écriture sur les pages se fait au moyen d'un stylet attenant au système bloc-notes, un numériseur situé en dessous des pages générant un enregistrement électronique des marques saisies afin d'un stockage et d'une restitution ultérieure des pages. L'enregistrement électronique représente non seulement les coordonnées spatiales du stylet échantillonnées au centième de seconde, mais également certaines commandes utilisateur telles que l'identification de page, toutes informations insérées en des emplacements significatifs à l'intérieur de l'ensemble du train de données. Les données du train sont associées à des commandes préexistantes d'identification de page, de façon que les données ultérieures peuvent être coupées ou triées en fonction de l'heure de ces données par rapport aux commandes d'identification de page. De cette façon, l'éditeur à distance, ainsi que le logiciel de collage de l'éditeur, est capable de distinguer les données en fonction de l'heure de saisie, et de déplacer ces données nonobstant les chevauchements spatiaux avec d'autres données de stylet.
