Abstract: A hand held pneumatic gun has an airway arranged to be coupled to a source of compressed air, the airway communicating with an air chamber via a trigger valve assembly. The gun includes a detachable breech that is supported in a sealed position against the air chamber by a support ring pivotally secured to the body of the gun. An interlocking assembly is arranged to interlock with the trigger valve assembly if the breech is not supported in its sealed position, so that actuation of the trigger valve assembly is inhibited unless the breech is sealed against the air chamber. The breech incorporates a nozzle that can be secured to an end of a hose or tube and a polymer projectile is placed into the breech to be forced by the air pressure through the hose or tube to clean the interior of the hose or to remove contaminate matter therefrom.

Abstract: Device for obtaining mechanical characteristics of coins, comprised of an element which is elastically deformable by the weight of coins during their passage on said element. The deformation of said element will depend on the weight of the coins and their position on the length of said element. The elastically deformable element is provided with sensors in order to obtain an electric signal inherent to the mechanical characteristic searched in the coin. From the impact produced by the drop of the coins on said beam a parameter representative of the mechanical elasticity of the coin is determined by means of frequency analysis, by proceeding to the measurement of higher harmonics of the impact signal. <IMAGE>

Abstract: On émet un faisceau laser vers un réflecteur/vibrateur qui engendre alors une onde ultrasonore vers un objet à inspecter. L'onde ultrasonore frappant l'objet se reflète sur ses éventuels défauts internes et retourne vers le réflecteur/vibrateur et le fait vibrer. On détecte cette vibration révélatrice de défauts en recourant à un faisceau laser adapté. La présente invention permet la détexion de défauts par ultrasons pour des matériaux réflecteurs qui présentent des rainures de surface ou de faibles facteurs de réflexion lumineuse ou pour des objets dont les matériaux engendrent difficilement une onde ultrasonore par réception directe d'un faisceau laser, rendant ainsi inopérant le procédé conventionnel.

Abstract: A method and apparatus is disclosed for oxidation of aqueous mixtures of organic material, including toxic material in the presence of inorganic materials, by reaction of said material with water and oxygen at supercritical conditions. Oxygen and the aqueous mixture are separately pressurized to greater than about 218 atmospheres, combined to form a reaction mixture and then directed through a tubular reactor having a substantially constant internal diameter. The velocity of the reaction mixture is sufficient to prevent settling of a substantial portion of solids initially present in the reaction mixture and of solids which form during passage through the reactor. The mixture is heated to temperature above about 374° C. in the tubular reactor. A substantial portion of the organic material in the reaction mixture is oxidized in the tubular reactor to thereby form an effluent mixture. Inorganic salts in the effluenet mixture, which are insoluble at conditions of supercritical temperature and pressure for water, are dissolved in a liquid water phase during cooldown of the effluent mixture at an outlet end of the reactor. Inorganic solids that are not soluble in the effluent mixture can be separated from a substantial portion of the effluent mixture by filtration prior to subsequent depressurization of the effluent mixture.

Abstract: Un récepteur de télévision hautes performances détecte de manière synchrone le signal FI image. Un bruit d'impulsion synchrone dans le signal FI génère soit du bruit à potentiel positif soit du bruit à potentiel négatif dans le signal vidéo fourni par un détecteur vidéo synchrone, lequel bruit est ensuite remplacé par une valeur du signal vidéo apparaissant avant le bruit d'impulsion de la manière suivante. Le signal vidéo contaminé par le bruit d'impulsion est fourni sous forme de signal d'entrée à la fois à un détecteur de bruit d'impulsion et à une ligne à retard. Le signal de sortie émanant de la ligne à retard, retardé d'environ 240 ns, est fourni comme signal permettant la poursuite par un circuit échantillonneur-bloqueur. Le signal de bruit d'impulsion détecté est utilisé pour actionner le mode de maintien dans le circuit échantillonneur-bloqueur. En étirant l'impulsion émanant du détecteur de bruit d'impulsion pendant la durée de 600-800 ns couvrant partiellement la durée de la majeure partie du bruit d'impulsion, le circuit échantillonneur-bloqueur remplace la majeure partie du bruit d'impulsion avec des valeurs préalablement mémorisées du signal vidéo retardé. Cela permet généralement d'éviter non seulement l'apparition, dans l'image télévisée, de bruit d'impulsion blanc et du bruit d'impulsion noir qui en résulte, mais également d'éviter l'application de bruit d'impulsion au canal de chroma recevant comme signal d'entrée un signal vidéo détecté de manière synchrone. L'excitation par impulsion du canal de chroma est ainsi évitée, et le 'scintillement' du chroma n'apparaît pas dans l'image télévisée.
