Abstract: The circular knitter, to produce knitted pile fabrics, has a yarn guide structure (46) with one guide unit (72) to lay the pile yarns and a second unit (70) to lay the ground yarns. The ground yarn guide extends radially inwards, in relation to the cylinder (12) axis, and is against the direction of knitting needle (42) rotation on the cylinder circumference, offset to the first guide unit. The circular knitter has pile sinkers (16) which slide between two loop-forming positions, using two yarn laying zones of different widths to form pile loops of different lengths. The second laying zone is at least double the width of the first laying zone, in a radial direction. The first laying zone is at the free end of the pile sinker, with the second zone at a gap from it. At least one of the yarn laying zones has a longitudinal taper, with an increasing gap from the free end of the sinker. The second yarn guide feeds the ground yarn radially, about as far as the outer edge (95) of the dial (36) of the knitting needles (42). The yarn guide structure has a base (52) to hold the second guide unit in a release mounting, with an adjustable setting. The second yarn guide unit has an extending jib (60) with the guide eyelet (70) at its free end. The first yarn guide unit is fitted to the base with a release mounting, so that the pile yarns are fed in a radial direction at the level of the points (74) of the hooks of extended needles. The first yarn guide unit has a guide head (56), with a guide channel (72) positioned so that its end towards the knitting needles is at the level of the needle hook points.

Abstract: A tubular composite container (10) includes a paperboard body ply (13) wrapped
into a tubular shape, and a polymer film liner ply (14) wrapped into a tubular shape and
adhered to the inner surface of the body ply (13). The liner ply (14) has a circumferential
length when unwrapped and flat that is less than that of the body ply (13) so that the
liner ply (14) is substantially uncompressed circumferentially. A strip of polymer film
liner material is wrapped onto a mandrel and overlapping edge portions of the liner
strip are heat sealed together by first preheating the liner strip to a temperature
below the sealing temperature of the heat seal material on the edge portions of the
liner strip, and then further heating the overlap region of the liner strip to at least
the sealing temperature to cause heat sealing of the edge portions. A paperboard
strip is coated on an inner surface with adhesive and is then wrapped about the
liner and adhered thereto. The outer surface of the liner strip is surface treated by
corona discharge or flame treatment prior to being wrapped on the mandrel to
improve adhesion to the paperboard, and the liner strip tension is maintained less
than about 1 pound per inch of width to prevent liner stretching as the liner strip is
advanced to and wrapped about the mandrel. The preheating of the liner strip is
performed by a heated section of the mandrel over which the liner strip passes.
The overlap region is locally heated by an infrared heater.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de transfert intercellulaire dans des systèmes mobiles SUTM dans la technique AMRT-SCDMA (et aussi FDMS-SDMA) à duplexage intégral du type DRT. La complexité de la technique adoptée requiert un mécanisme de synchronisation de trame utilisant un signal pilote en liaison descendante émis par radiodiffusion par la station de base, auquel des séquences de signature émises par des unités mobiles uniques font écho dans les procédures prévoyant un accès en liaison montante. Ceci, associé à la vitesse élevée de chiffrement (1,28 Mchip) imposée par la technique AMCR, empêche l'ajout d'autres champs à la séquence du pilote en liaison descendante, qui doit rester une séquence de synchronisation pure. A la différence du GSM, un champ va faire défaut dans la salve de synchronisation servant au transport du numéro de trame du système FSN, indispensable à la synchronisation de l'hypertrame et le début du chiffrement sur le canal. L'information sur le nombre de trames du système (SFN) est comprise dans le canal commun de signalisation ainsi que les autres informations de radiodiffusion. Ceci ralentirait de façon inacceptable le transfert, c'est pourquoi un message a été créé et mis à disposition du réseau, afin de remettre le numéro de trame du système FSN actuel dans la nouvelle cellule de manière spécifique, en réponse au message d'accès de transfert envoyé par le téléphone mobile (fig.16).
