Abstract: The method comprises a first stage during which a blank holder (1) is brought into contact with the sheet (2), a second stage in which a pressurised fluid is fed by means of a first hydraulic circuit to the cavity (4) in a die (3) below the sheet and a third stage in which a punch (7) is displaced towards the sheet to deform it plastically through the combined action of the pressures generated by the punch and the fluid. In accordance with the invention the second pressurised fluid delivered from a second hydraulic circuit is caused to act on the upper surface (9) of at least a portion (10) of the sheet so as to balance out the pressures acting on the undersurface (11) of the said portion while the former is displaced towards the sheet.

Abstract: A method of operating a meter to perform the steps of generating a measure of real energy consumed, generating a measure of reactive energy consumed, and generating, from the real energy and reactive energy measures, a measure of apparent energy consumed. 
     In one embodiment, the real energy and reactive energy measures are provided as integer quantity inputs. Particularly, assume S = kVAh, P = kWh, Q = kVARh, and R = Residue. Respective registers store values of P, [2P + 1], Q, [2Q + 1], and the sum [P² + Q²]. Initially, the P, Q, and [P² + Q²] registers are set to zero, while the [2P + 1] and [2Q + 1] registers are initialized to 1. At the arrival of a P pulse, the value in the [2P +1] register is added to the [P² + Q²] register, then the P register is incremented by 1 and the [2P + 1] register is incremented by 2. Exactly the same steps are carried out subsequent to receipt of a Q pulse. 
     A set of registers also is used to store the S and [2S + 1] data, and generation of the S pulses is determined as follows. After arrival of either a P or Q pulse, a trial subtraction of [2S + 1] is made from the [P² + Q²] register. If the subtraction does not cause an underflow, an S pulse is generated, the S register is incremented by 1, and the [2S + 1] register is incremented by 2. If the subtraction causes an underflow, the [P² + Q²] register is reset to its previous value, the other registers are not incremented, and no S pulse is generated.

Abstract: Probes (1) provided with magnets are used in boreholes provided with a metal casing pipe (2). They are pressed, at the surface, against the inner wall of the pipe and are driven towards the bottom by means of a rigid driving member (3) such as a production tubular column provided with driving means : stop-pieces (6) for longitudinal driving and lateral projections (7) for lateral positioning of the probe, or else traction slings etc. The probe wall applied against the pipe may have the same radius of curvature as the latter, so as to improve the connection. The probe may be associated with an electronic acquisition and transmission box fixed to the column. Before any action is taken, the column is sufficiently moved so as to eliminate any mechanical connection with the probe. After use, the probe may be moved towards another point of action or brought back to the surface by moving the column. Application to all actions taken in oil wells, for example. <IMAGE>

Abstract: Spectacle lenses are coated by ion vapour deposition by means of sputtering target materials. A plurality of lenses to be coated are introduced into a sputtering chamber by a load lock device, and when in the chamber the lenses are covered by a disc which is rotated at high speed (50/60 rpm). During this rotation alternate targets of magnetrons are sputtered releasing metallic particles which are oxidised by an oxygen plasma created by a third magnetron and metallic oxide coatings are formed on the lenses as alternate layers of different materials. At the end of the operation of coating, which is pre-programmed, the lenses are returned automatically to the load lock device from whence they can be removed. After placement of the lenses in the load lock device the entire process is effected automatically by pressing a button.

Abstract: The invention regards a novel use of pharmaceutical compositions in treating symptoms of disorders relating to neurological diseases and for treating pathophysiologically related symptomology in other body tissues, including peripheral neuropathies, secondary symptomology of diabetes, Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, alcoholic polyneuropathy and age-onset symptomology. Covalent bond crosslinking of protein and lipid subcellular elements appears to underlie the formation of polymerized aggregates of neurofilaments, other structural proteins and lipofuscin. The use of certain compounds may compete with cellular protein and lipid amine groups for reaction with disease-induced carbonyl-containing aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons. Such derivatized pharmacological agents can then be excreted by the kidneys, thus removing the toxic agent(s). The presence of an acid functional group on the agent used facilitates kidney recognition and removal. Another application of the present invention includes the oral use of non-absorbable polyamine agents and amine-related agents such as chitosan and cholestyramine to covalently bind and sequester potentially toxic carbonyl compound present in the diet. Veterinary, food processing and cosmetic applications of the present invention are also described.

Abstract: Un cathéter d'ablation thermique (10) comprend un élément (12) en forme de corps allongé, pourvu d'un élément de chauffage (40) sur son extrémité distale (16). L'élément de chauffage (40) est suspendu à une certaine distance par rapport à l'élément allongé (12) afin de former une région de circulation (20) au-dessous de cet élément. Un fluide thermoconducteur peut être introduit à travers un passage (28) pratiqué dans l'élément allongé (12) et distribué à l'intérieur de la région de circulation (20) afin d'améliorer le transfet de chaleur. Le cathéter (10) introduit le milieu thermoconducteur dans un organe creux où l'élément de chauffage (40) augmente suffisamment la température du milieu pour produire une lésion dans la membrane interne de l'organe. Eventuellement, un fourreau d'insertion (50) pourvu d'un compartiment expansible (56) peut être utilisé en combinaison avec le cathéter d'ablation thermique (10) afin de centrer l'élément de chauffage (40) à l'intérieur de l'organe et d'éviter un contact direct avec la paroi de l'organe. On améliore le transfert de chaleur et la régularité de la température en produisant un écoulement oscillant du milieu de transfert thermique à travers le cathéter (10) au moment où la chaleur est appliquée.
