Abstract: Bulk materials are sorted into two fractions according to colour and/or shape. An arrangement of a conveyor for the material and opto-electronic scanners detect particles over the width of the material stream at the end of a chute (12). An electronic image processor forms a two-dimensional image of the stream from successive line signals from the scanners so that a particle can be recognised. Air blast nozzles (10) divert particles from a normal channel (32) to a separate channel (26) according to the evaluation of each particle. An air suction fan (28) is provided in the diversion channel t maintain uniform air conditions.

Abstract: The valve for a liquid under pressure consists of a main tube (3) attached by its edge to the free end of the liquid dispenser (2), which has an internal tube (7) of smaller diameter. The two tubes are fixed rigidly together, and the internal one receives a plug (9) with a projecting rim (10) round its head to retain a conical membrane (5) fitted between the two tubes and closing the annular gap between them. When the liquid is flowing through the dispenser the outer edge of the membrane is opened by the pressure of the flow, allowing the liquid to pass. As soon as the flow ceases, the membrane returns to its position against the outer tube's thrust surface, preventing any drips.

Abstract: A portable hand-held concrete, mortar and gypsum mixer comprises a small gasoline powered implement having a drive shaft extending generally downward from the handles to a gear box. A transverse shaft driven by the drive shaft extends to either side of the gear box. Mounted on the transverse shaft are a plurality of blades shaped to thoroughly agitate and mix a combination of water and the ingredients for concrete, mortar, gypsum or similar heavy, hard to mix materials. Surrounding the blades are thin rings attached to the blades to form a round circumferential surface about the blades and thereby prevent the blades from directly contacting the mixing trough or other means of containing the mix. In the alternative, the plurality of blades may be shaped at their peripheries to form substantially continuous circular circumferences. Further improvements to the hand-held mixer comprise a positionable handle to easily control the mixer from the side, a flexible extension extending from the drag bar for more speed control by the user by manually changing the vertical orientation of the mixer handles, and openings through the mixing blades to more thoroughly mix the material by transverse movement of the material through the openings in the blades.

Abstract: A centralizer for the stem of a cementable prosthetic orthopedic implant that is implanted into the medullary canal of a bone has a hollow annular body with a tapered interior surface for receiving a tapered stem of the implant. The centralizer has four fins spaced around the exterior surface of its annular body with the fins extending radially outwardly in a direction generally perpendicular to the longitudinal axis extending along the stem in a proximal-distal direction. The annular body of the centralizer has a proximal and a distal end surface spaced a predetermined distance apart with the fins having a base adjacent the body extending over a substantial portion of the predetermined distance. Adjacent fins are offset from neighboring fins in a proximal-distal direction so that when the proximal-distal dimension of the annular body is maintained, it generates a wavelike structure for the centralizer body.

Abstract: A sealing assembly (S) for a container (C) with an opening including a sheet (F) welded to the edge of the opening and consisting of at least three layers. The layers comprise a weld layer (1) applied and welded to the edge of the opening along a bead (3), an outer barrier layer (2) and an intermediate adhesive layer (3). The weld between the bead (4) of the weld layer (1) and the edge of the opening has a tear resistance higher than the adhesive force between the weld layer (1) and the adhesive layer. After opening for the first time, the weld bead (4) remains in place along the edge and is separated from the weld layer (1) and the adhesive layer (3) which is thus exposed in an area (7) and enables the container (C) to be resealed by reapplying the layer onto the bead (4). Also claimed are: (i) a container equipped with the claimed sealing assembly; and (ii) a process for the manufacture of the claimed sealing assembly comprising welding the sheet (F) to the edge of the opening along a bead (4).

Title: Microprocesseur configure pour detecter un branchement vers un sous-programme effectue par un processeur de traitement des signaux numeriques et pour faire executer ce sous-programme par ledit processeur

Granted: 2006-08-02
Abstract: L'invention a pour objet un microprocesseur configuré pour détecter des instructions d'appel de sous-programme comportant une adresse cible indiquant une fonction DSP (processeur de traitement des signaux numériques). La détection de ces instructions peut être réalisée, par exemple, dans une unité de décodage d'instructions à l'intérieur du microprocesseur. Des instructions d'appel de sous-programme détectées de cette manière sont acheminées vers un processeur de signaux numériques couplé à proximité du processeur ou éventuellement intégré dans ce dernier. Le microprocesseur peut être configuré pour mémoriser une information indiquant que le DSP est validé. Si ce dernier n'est pas validé, alors le microprocesseur exécute les sous-programmes d'origine mémorisées à l'adresse cible de l'instruction. Bien que les sous-programmes risquent de ne pas être aussi efficaces pour effectuer la fonction DSP, le programme faisant appel à la fonction peut encore fonctionner correctement en l'absence de DSP. De cette manière, un système d'ordinateur peut fonctionner initialement sans que le DSP ne soit intégré dans celui-ci. Si un utilisateur décide d'augmenter la puissance du système à l'aide d'un DSP, alors le microprocesseur peut envoyer les fonctions DSP vers le processeur DSP. Jusqu'à l'augmentation de puissance, le microprocesseur peut exécuter les fonctions.

Abstract: The conveyor (2) has a belt (4) running around two drums (6) and incorporating a transponder (10) switched into a different state by a predetermined critical variation. While the transponder is operative it transmits a signal inductively to a static transceiver (12). The transponder comprises an integrated circuit and a coil which ceases to transmit the signal when the critical variation occurs. Destruction of the material around the transponder causes the conveyor to be stopped for repairs. Unacceptable change of length is corrected automatically by adjustment of belt tension.

Abstract: A filling system of a packaging machine is set forth that reduces the mixing of product and air during the filling of the container with a flowable material such as low fat milk. The fill pipe of the filling system has an elliptical cross-section which provides for a reduced velocity of the flowable material entering the container while allowing for an increased production time of the packaging machine. The filling system is designed to fill a container having a cross-section defined by a plurality of sidewalls, an interior bottom engaging the sidewalls, and an open top. The fill system is especially adopted to fill containers having a rectangular cross-section. The system includes a fill pump for pumping a flowable material through a fill pipe (40) to a nozzle (80) and into a container. The nozzle includes a collar composed of a strong silicone material and a plurality of flaps composed of a flexible material such as silicone rubber. In a preferred embodiment, the flaps of the nozzle are designed to substantially conform and engage with the sidewalls (145) of a container having a rectangular cross-section, when the flaps are urged to an open position to thereby inhibit mixing of air and product as the flowable material is dispensed into the container through the nozzle and as a moving mechanism is operated to relatively move the container and nozzle from a first to a second position. The fill pipe has an elongate body, an inlet end and an outlet end. The inlet end is in flow communication with the fill pump and may have a circular cross-section. The outlet end is in flow communication with the nozzle and has an elliptical cross-section. The cross-section of the elongate body gradually transforms from a circular cross-section at the inlet end to an elliptical cross-section at the outlet end. Preferably, the fill pipe is composed of a stainless steel material for durability and hygienic purposes.
