Abstract: The management method involves correcting, expanding or over- writing stored call numbers in a repetition memory (WWS) using given input procedures. The input of each new call number causes each previously stored numbers to be shifted by one storage location. The number of the last storage is erased. The content of the memory is fed in sequence to a display at the subscriber terminal when a repetition button is operated.

Abstract: A self-closing valve assembly has a main valve having a seat between a high-pressure input conduit and a low-pressure output conduit, a main valve element movable into and out of engagement with the seat to block and permit flow from the input conduit to the output conduit, and a chamber behind the main valve element pressurizable to press the main valve element against the seat. A small-diameter passage extends from the input conduit to the chamber so that the chamber can be pressurized via the passage from the input conduit to hold the valve element against the seat. A pilot or control valve connected between the chamber and the output conduit can be opened to depressurize the chamber and thereby lift the valve element off the seat. A throttle valve has a throttle body having an outer face exposed to pressurized liquid in the input conduit and an inner face turned toward a mouth of the passage, a formation on the inner face blockingly engageable with the passage mouth, an abutment adjacent the mouth of the passage and operatively engageable with the throttle body so that the pressurized liquid in the input conduit will urge the body toward the mouth of the passage and toward the abutment, a weak spring for holding the throttle body at a spacing from the mouth and from the abutment, and a strong spring effective when the body inner face is against the abutment for urging the body away from the mouth of the passage.

Abstract: A hand held tool (30) for the removal of a cured bead of caulk (15), sealant or other previously fluent material from a joint between substantially perpendicular surfaces. The tool comprises an elongate handle (28) with two working heads (11,18). The primary working head (11) at one end of the longitudinal axis of the handle (28) features a chisel-like point (14) angled down from the upper face (16) of the handle (28) and extending between two symmetrical flanking planes (13) which are acutely angled to each other and also spread from the body of the handle (28). The planes (13) are bevelled to form sharp edges for scraping surfaces during an operation to remove a bead (15) whilst the chisel-like point (14) chisels the body of the bead (15) from the joint (10). Axially opposite the primary head (11) the second working head (18) is essentially an angled chisel-like point (23) extended from the upper face (16) of the handle (28) and is used to chisel, pick or gouge a bead (15) from a joint (10). <IMAGE>

Abstract: Dans un amplificateur, un couplage par induction (LL) permet de coupler une charge (Z1) entre les deux bornes de courant principales (E, C) d'un transistor (QA), un couplage capacitif (CC) étant par ailleurs disposé entre ces deux bornes de courant principales (E, C). Ce couplage par induction (LL) et ce couplage capacitif (CC) produisent des impédances respectives (ZLL, ZCC) entre lesdites bornes de courant principales (E, C). Afin d'atteindre une performance satisfaisante en termes de distorsion et de coefficient d'amplification des signaux, les impédances (ZLL, ZCC) doivent présenter une amplitude sensiblement égale, sur au moins une partie d'une gamme de fréquences sur laquelle ledit amplificateur produit un certain coefficient d'amplification. L'amplificateur de la présente invention est particulièrement utile dans des applications de réseaux de câbles.

Abstract: A control system for an inflatable chamber operably positionable with respect to an aorta of a patient monitors an actual flow duration time for inflating and/or deflating the inflatable chamber with a predetermined volume of pressurized fluid and compares the actual flow duration time to a target flow duration time. The system controls the fluid pressure in a high pressure reservoir, and/or in a vacuum reservoir, based on the results of the comparison. If the actual time for inflation is too short compared to the target time, the fluid pressure in the high pressure reservoir is reduced. If the actual time for inflation is too long compared with the target time, the fluid pressure in the high pressure reservoir is increased. If the actual time for deflation is too short compared to the target time, the vacuum in the vacuum reservoir is decreased. If the actual time for deflation is too long compared with the target time, the vacuum in the vacuum reservoir is increased. The incremental step change in fluid pressure within either reservoir can be controlled within predetermined minimum and maximum values, and/or based on the magnitude of the difference between the actual and target time intervals. The change in fluid pressure within either reservoir can be controlled by the system manipulating a control valve, or varying the speed of the compressor, or any combination of the two, until the new calculated value is reached within the reservoir.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un appareil et un procédé permettant de déterminer la position d'un émetteur-récepteur mobile sans fil. Cette invention associe les technologies de localisation de position GPS et de communications sans fil pour réaliser une localisation précise dans un environnement urbain ou un autre environnement, lorsque la visibilité directe vers les satellites est quelque peu masquée. Les procédé et appareil de cette invention utilisent des signaux provenant de deux satellites GPS seulement (60, 70, 80, 90) et de la station de base terrestre de desserte. De manière plus générale, cette invention consiste à recevoir dans une station de base (10) un premier signal émis par un satellite GPS et un second signal émis par un second satellite GPS. Les émetteur (200) et récepteur (100) mobiles sont conçus pour recevoir d'abord ces signaux GPS et pour émettre ensuite un troisième signal à la station de base. La station de base (10) reçoit un troisième signal qu'elle utilise pour calculer la position de l'unité sans fil (20).

Abstract: Antenna arrays which can work simultaneously in various frequency bands thanks to the physical disposition of the elements which constitute them, and also the multiband behaviour of some elements situated strategically in the array. The configuration of the array is described based on the juxtaposition or interleaving of various conventional mono-band arrays working in the different bands of interest. In those positions in which elements of different multiband arrays come together, a multiband antenna is employed which covers the different working frequency bands. The advantages with respect to the classic configuration of using one array for each frequency band are: saving in cost of the global radiating system and its installation (one array replaces several), and its size and visual and environmental impact are reduced in the case of base stations and repeater stations for communication systems. <IMAGE>
