Date Jan. 7, 1993.Disclosed is a method and apparatus with which errors caused by the propagation of high order accoustic modes in ultrsonic flow measurement are reduced. Accoustic wave packets are transmitted between two transducers (1,2) arranged in a duct (3). A ringaround transmission technique is used and implemented by a control device (4) in which every fourth wave packet is inverted with respect to the preceding packets in order to annul the propagation effects of high order modes in the duct (3). This permits increased accuracy in the detection of reception of the wave packets by the transducers (1,2) enabling increased accuracy in flow velocity measurment.

Title: Sports boot
Inventor: TONEL VALERIO
IPC: A43B5/04
Filed: 1993-05-18
Granted: 1997-04-23
Abstract: A sports boot including a flap, particularly usable for the quarter and/or the shell. The flap includes a first rigid element (9a,9b,9c,9d) and a second soft element (10a,10b,10c,10d). The first rigid element laterally affects the leg and/or the foot of the user and is associable, in a removable or fixed manner, with the quarter and/or the shell. The second soft element instead affects the tibial and/or upper metatarsal region. A flap is thus obtained which, by having two degrees of resilience, can be applied at a shell or at a quarter made of a material which is not of extremely high quality and is thus less rigid, although providing an easy insertion of the foot inside the boot. Conversely, a stiffer boot may be provided, by using materials of higher technical characteristics, for high performance boots for competition. <IMAGE>
