Abstract: Mécanisme permettant de contrôler des vaches (a, b, c, d) dans une étable où s'effectue la traite, ledit mécanisme comprenant une pluralité de séparations (12) montées de manière à être mobiles entre une première position ou position relevée dans laquelle les vaches (a, b, c, d) peuvent se déplacer sous lesdites séparations (12), et une deuxième position ou position abaissée dans laquelle lesdites séparations (12) empêchent les vaches (a, b, c, d) de se déplacer. Les séparations (12) sont espacées les unes des autres pour définir une pluralité de compartiments pour la traite desdites vaches (a, b, c, d); chaque séparation (12) comprenant une extrémité extérieure (34) qui est montée pivotante sur une porte d'extrémité (32) qui peut pivoter entre une position transversale et une position approximativement coplanaire auxdites séparations (12) lorsqu'une vache s'introduit dans ledit compartiment situé juste après ladite séparation (12).

IPC: A61M25/16

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé d'assemblage d'un cathéter à ballonnet (16, 60) consistant à concentrer sélectivement l'énergie laser le long d'un site annulaire de liaison par soudure (72) sur des sections à surface contiguë (74, 76) sur la longueur d'un tube de cathéter (62) et d'une tige ou col (68) du ballonnet de dilatation (66). La longueur d'onde de l'énergie laser, et les matériaux polymères du ballonnet et du cathéter sont adaptés à une grande absorption de l'énergie laser afin de minimiser l'échange thermique conductif dans les directions axiales éloignées du site de liaison. Ceci minimise la cristallisation et le raidissement dans les régions proches du site de liaison, en permettant aux liaisons par soudure de se situer tout près du cône proximal (24) et des cônes distaux (26, 70) du ballonnet de dilatation (20, 66) tout en préservant l'aspect souple et flexible des cônes. L'invention concerne également un mode de réalisation d'un cathéter à ballonnet assemblé selon le procédé.

Abstract: Hinge for a refrigeration appliance built into a cabinet (6), having doors (11, 12, 13, 14) for closing the food storage compartments (8, 9), said doors being covered by corresponding decorating panels (32). The hinge (15) is provided with arms (21, 22) that are fixed on the front side against the metal outer casing (7) of the appliance and on the back side against the decorating panel (32). Said hinge further comprises a protruding stud (29) that is inserted in a receptacle in the peripheral portion of each door (11, 12, 13, 14), thereby causing both the corresponding door (11,12,13,14) and the related decorating panel (32) to become pivotally hinged on to the cabinet (7). Said panel (32) is therefore able to slide freely with respect to the door (11,12,13,14) when the latter is opened or closed, thereby preventing the mutually opposing gaskets (17,20) of the doors (11,12,13,14) of the appliance from entering in contact with each other, so as to avoid possible wear-out and damages.

IPC: H01T19/00
Filed: 1993-04-03
Abstract: The process and the device for the electrical pretreatment of lubricant-containing plastics films for increasing the surface tension by corona discharge has a conventional electrode arrangement which cooperates with a nozzle arrangement (4) for carrying out a heat treatment by briefly blowing hot gas, preferably air, onto the film (3). The temperature of the hot gas is above the melting point of the film and above the boiling point or decomposition point of the lubricant. By this means the surface treatment is very much more effective compared with pure pretreatment with the aid of corona discharge. Due to the brevity (thermal shock), the film itself is not affected. The treatment acts only on one side of the film. <IMAGE>

Title: Vehicle lane position detection system
Inventor: MATHUR BIMAL P
IPC: G08G1/04
Filed: 1993-07-27
Abstract: A low cost, real time vehicle lane position detection system is provided for determining and maintaining the position of the vehicle on a highway. The system comprises an image sensor mounted on the front of an automotive vehicle and an integrated processor for performing real-time lane mark detection. The sensor/processor system identifies highway lane marks on the detector image plane by using a nonlinear resistive network for detecting outliers. A line detection algorithm, such as the Hough transform, is used to determine the lane marks from the outliers on the image plane. Because the expected lane position can be determined in advance, an added degree of signal-to-noise discrimination is achieved by providing feedback to the processor for outlier detection. The position of the vehicle in the lane is determined and tracked from the position of the detected lane marks on the image plane given the sensor position and optical geometry.

Abstract: A pallet (10) constructed from thick walled hollow paperboard cylindrical cores has longitudinally extending runners (12,14,16) to which deck forming members (20) are connected, the runners having notches (18) within which the deck forming members are tightly received. Each deck forming member is a longitudinal segment of a thick walled hollow paperboard cylindrical core. The pallet has feet (22,46) attached to the runners to raise the runners and thus the deck members above the floor so that the pallet has fourway entry for forklifts and also permits use of standard pallet jacks for lifting the pallet. In one embodiment, each foot (22) is a short length of hollow thick walled paperboard core connected to the bottom of the respective runners by means of a tab and slot connection, the tabs (24,26) being longitudinal extensions of the feet while the slots (32,34) being formed in the peripheral surface of the runners transverse to the longitudinal axis. In a second embodiment each foot (46) is a short length of hollow thick walled paperboard core which slidably is connected to a respective end of a runner by cooperating slots (42,44,48,50).

Abstract: In order to fabricate faithful, weather-resistant quarry stone imitations of large volume with relatively low weight, first of all an impression is taken in a plastics material from a quarry stone. The impression is stiffened, as required, preferably by coating the rear with a curable plastic, if appropriate a glass fibre reinforced plastic. The impression is then turned over into a working position, in which it can be used as a mould. A curable relase agent is introduced into the mould and, after its curing, the mould is provided on the inside with a thin synthetic resin coating. Fine-grained natural sand is applied to this still moist synthetic resin coating and incorporated in it. Finally, a layer of curable plastic, if appropriate glass fibre reinforced plastic, is applied to the fine-grained natural sand in order to create the hollow quarry stone imitation. Once curing of this layer has taken place, the quarry stone imitation can be removed from the mould. The quarry stone imitation is thus finished.

Abstract: Thermoplastic microspheres, unexpanded or expanded, which contain chlorine-free aliphatic fluorocarbons or fluorohydrocarbons. Chlorine-free aliphatic fluorocarbons or fluorohydrocarbons are used as blowing agent at the production of expandable thermoplastic microspheres. Expanded microspheres containing these blowing agents have very low densities. The use of the specific blowing agents also gives other advantages, especially with regard to fire and insulation properties and the microspheres are thus especially suitable for use in fire-resistant paints and insulation materials.
