Abstract: Un manomètre ou commutateur qui détecte la pression de l'air à l'intérieur d'un pneu sans chambre monté sur la jante d'un véhicule à moteur comprend un logement qui traverse un évidement correspondant dans une paroi de la jante et est fixé de manière étanche à l'air sur la jante par des éléments de fixation. Afin d'obtenir un manomètre ayant une hauteur réduite et facile à fixer de manière libérable sur une paroi de la jante, son logement (1) comprend une section de bride (2) externe qui s'appuie sur la paroi (13) de la jante et qui est agencée à une certaine distance d'une bride annulaire continue (moitiés de rondelle annulaire 7, 7'). Des élément à ressort (ressort 10, 10') s'appuient d'une part sur la bride annulaire (moitiés de rondelle annulaire 7, 7') et d'autre part sur un côté de la paroi (13) de la jante afin de solliciter la section de bride (2) du logement (1) contre l'autre côté de la paroi (13) de la jante. En particulier, le ressort se présente sous forme d'une sorte de rondelle-ressort (10, 10') et la bride annulaire se compose de deux moitiés (7, 7') de rondelle annulaire susceptibles d'être introduites dans une rainure (6), le ressort (10, 10') fixant les moitiés (7, 7') de rondelle annulaire également dans le sens radial.

Abstract: Assemblage de cathéter à implantation sous-cutanée à but thérapeutique permettant d'injecter un fluide médicinal, tel qu'un médicament anti-cancer, dans une cavité du corps, par exemple un vaisseau sanguin. L'assemblage de cathéter à implantation sous-cutanée ci-décrit se compose d'un injecteur de fluide médicinal présentant une entrée et une sortie et un cathéter raccordé à la sortie, et le cathéter est introduit à demeure dans une cavité du corps, l'injecteur étant maintenu noyé sous la peau. Cet agencement permet de répéter l'acte thérapeutique pendant que l'assemblage de cathéter à implantation sous-cutanée demeure à l'intérieur du corps; en comparaison avec les procédés utilisés jusqu'à présent, consistant à introduire et à extraire le cathéter à chaque traitement, l'agencement décrit permet de réduire considérablement l'inconfort du patient. En outre, à la différence des procédés mentionnés, consistant à introduire le cathéter à travers la peau, il n'y a pas de risque d'infection pendant le traitement.

Abstract: On a mis au point un appareil et un procédé d'application de polymères pulvérisés par flamme à plasma permettant l'application d'un mince revêtement de matériau thermofusible sur un matériau de substrat. On utilise ledit appareil avec un générateur (12) de plasma classique à l'aide duquel on peut injecter des matériaux tels que le nylon ou d'autres polymères synthétiques dans le jet de plasma, afin de fondre la poudre sans la surchauffer. Ledit appareil comprend un ajutage central (58) refroidi par de l'eau, entouré par une zone d'écoulement coaxial ouverte se trouvant à l'intérieur d'un cylindre (16). Le polymère est réparti uniformément sur la substrat du fait de l'écoulement coaxial du jet de plasma et de l'air aspiré à travers la zone d'écoulement. Une source de vide (20) reliée à l'appareil (10) aspire les fumées produites par les polymères fondus, dans une ouverture entourant l'alésage (98) à l'avant du cylindre (16), ce qui permet de filtrer les gaz sous vide. On peut utiliser ledit appareil (10) dans un procédé d'application de composés polymères pulvérisés par flamme à plasma sur une surface.

Abstract: A method for forming a bump (27) by bonding a ball on an electrode (26) of an electronic device (25) comprises the steps of forming a ball (21a) at a bottom end of a metallic wire (21) held by a capillary (20) by discharging between the metallic wire and a discharge electrode (22), fixing the ball on an electrode (26) of an electronic device (25), and cutting the metallic wire to form a bump on the electrode, wherein the ball (21a) is formed just under the capillary to touch the bottom end of the capillary. The heat transfers from the ball to the capillary and the metallic wire inside the capillary does not recrystallize, so that the interface of recrystallization is positioned just above the ball, where endurance against the shearing stress is weak. As a result, the metallic wire is cut just above the ball, and a bump with no wire-shaped part is formed.

Abstract: The device for the automatic segmentation of images according to the invention is comprised of a data processor associated with a network of automatons organized in three levels; the inputs of each of the automatons are weighted by adjustable coefficients; the number of automatons of the first level is equal to the number of characteristic values calculated from observation windows taken first from an assembly of examples of image areas having different textures: their apprenticeship by the network allows to adjust the weighting coefficients of the network automatons till all examples of one same texture lead to a same configuration, characteristic of said texture, at the network output. The image segmentation comprises, from the assemblies of characteristic values calculated on image areas to be analyzed, the analysis of the network output in order to deduce the area texture. Application to the segmentation of aerial images or medical images, for example, and more generally to any type of images wherein the regions are discriminatable by their texture.

Abstract: The position finding system for a moving object (1) consists of a transmitter (3) of light flashes (8) fixed to the moving object (1) and a charge-transfer frame-transfer photosensitive detector (4) located on a fixed station and connected by an electronic system (7). The transmitter and detector are controlled by individual time bases, initially synchronised. 
<??>From time to time, but preferably periodically, the integration time of the said detector (4) is reduced to a value at most equal to the duration of the light flashes (8), so that the said corresponding light flash (8) is produced at least partly during the transfer time preceding or following the said reduced integration time. The said electronic system (7) on the one hand calculates the relative time shift between the said time bases from the light track formed by the said flash (8) on the said matrix detector (4) and on the other hand uses this calculated shift to reset the time base of the detector with respect to that of the transmitter.

Date Feb. 21, 1991.The fixed-direction jet units (1) of a whirlpool-bath system each include a nozzle (18) for supplying water under pressure from a tube-section (17) to an outlet (12) across an air gap (20) within a chamber (19). The unit (1) is clamped to the bath-wall (14) between a flange (16) of the outlet (12) and the unit housing (15). The flow of water from the nozzle (18) across the gap (20) into the axially-aligned stem (13) of the outlet (12) draws air into the chamber (19) from an inlet pipe (21) that is coupled to a distribution manifold (7) of an air-supply controller (9) by an individual supply tube (8). A circumferential skirt (22) projects backwardly from the stem (13) to shroud the gap (20) over a frusto-conical nose-part (23) of the nozzle (18), so that air is constricted to enter the gap (20) through the annular space (24) between them. The constriction evens out air flow around the stream of water from the nozzle (18), enhancing small-bubble distribution in the stream and the consequent foaming and turbulence of the jet discharged from the outlet (12). The cross-sectional area of the pathway for air between the nozzle nose-part (23) and the skirt (22) increases towards the gap (20), but may be substantially uniform.
