Abstract: The described actuation device (100) comprises a casing (101), intended for attachment to the handlebars or to the frame of a bicycle, a cable-winding bush (104), angularly mobile in the casing (101) about a main axis (X) of the device (100), and rotatable support means of the bush in the casing. Such support means comprise a first support unit (155, 166) at an outer guide collar (145) of the cable-winding bush (104, 104', 104", 104'''), situated in an intermediate position of the bush in the direction of the main axis (X) of the device (100). An excellent distribution of the stresses between the bush (104, 104', 104", 104''') and the casing (101) is thus ensured, substantially reducing the risks of excessive deformation and breaking.

Title: Procede pour reagir rapidement a des defections de liaison entre differents domaines de routage
Inventor: BLESS ROLAND
IPC: H04L45/24
Filed: 2004-02-09
Granted: 2006-09-13
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé pour réagir rapidement à la défection d'une liaison entre deux domaines de routage (AS-6, AS-8) dans un réseau à transmission par paquets. Une liaison étant détectée comme défectueuse, des voies de remplacement sont mises à disposition pour se substituer aux voies interrompues par sélection de voies alternatives et par propagation de messages sur ces voies de remplacement. Contrairement aux protocoles inter-domaines classiques tel que le protocole BGP (Border Gateway Protocol), l'envoi de messages et les modifications impliquées lors du routage concernent seulement les domaines de routage situés sur les voies de remplacement. Un perfectionnement apporté consiste en une propagation de messages au niveau du réseau si la défection de la liaison est une panne qui dure (persistante). Si tel est le cas, cela entraîne une nouvelle détermination de voies optimales dans l'ensemble du réseau. Cette invention permet une compensation de panne proportionnelle à des défections de courte durée et elle évite les instabilités  résultant de l'utilisation de protocoles inter-domaines classiques.
