Abstract: L'invention concerne un afficheur à écran plat comprenant une plaque frontale présentant une face intérieure, et une plaque arrière présentant une face intérieure située en regard de la face intérieure de la plaque frontale. Des parois latérales sont positionnées entre la plaque frontale et la plaque arrière. Les parois latérales, la plaque frontale et la plaque arrière forment une enveloppe hermétiquement fermée. Une pluralité de sous-pixels luminophores sont positionnés sur la face intérieure de la plaque frontale. Une pluralité d'émetteurs à effet de champ sont positionnés sur la face intérieure de la plaque arrière. Les émetteurs à effets de champ émettent des électrons qui viennent heurter les sous-pixels luminescents correspondants. Une pluralité de blindages anti-diffusion entourent chaque sous-pixel luminescent et définissent un volume de sous-pixel. Les blindages anti-diffusion réduisent le nombre d'électrons diffusés sortant de leur volume de sous-pixel correspondant. On réduit ainsi le nombre d'électrons diffusés chargeant les surfaces isolantes intérieures de l'enveloppe, et heurtant les sous-pixels luminescents correspondants.

The elastomer in question has a physical-chemical structure characterised by a one- or two-peak signal next to the low-molecular main signal for an (apparent) molar mass of greater than 250,000 g/mol as measured by gel-permeation chromatography from a solution of the microcellular PU elastomer produced at 90  DEG C in N,N-dimethylformamide with 1 % di-n-butylamine, against polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) as the standard, the signal being reduced or eliminated following addition of lithium chloride to this solution. The  elastomer has a urea content of 14-18 wt %. Also disclosed are a process for producing such a microcellular PU elastomer with improved dynamic-mechanical characteristics and the use of said elastomer to produce damping elements.

Abstract: A base station 2 has a GPS receiver 3 in a base station
body so as to receive correct time information based on an
atomic clock broadcast from a GPS satellite 1. The base
station 2 informs a mobile station of present time by
transmitting a control signal 4 including time information
received by the above-mentioned means. In the mobile radio,
a receiving section 6 receives the control signal 4
transmitted from the base station 2, and a signal processing
section 7 decodes this received signal so as to extract the
time information given by the base station 2 to thereby
calculate present time on the basis of this time information.
Further, the control section 9 makes the display section 8
display the thus obtained present time to thereby realize the
time display function.

Abstract: The power limiting method involves forming an adjustable voltage. An information signal formed by a temperature measurement is used to generate a control voltage. This maintains a constant supply voltage so long as the temperature remains at a given level. The supply voltage is decreased in proportion to a rise in temperature beyond the threshold. Two temperature thresholds, each corresponding to an amount of difference in reduction of supply voltage are used. Successive variations in supply voltage are created in response to a clock in one direction or another depending upon whether the threshold is exceeded or not.

Abstract: Parasol base (1) consisting of a combination of a concrete ballast
element (5) and a holder (3) for accommodating therein a fluid, such as water or
sand. In order to manufacture such a parasol base, it is proposed that
the holder should be provided with a chamber (13) into which the concrete
material is poured, and is vibrated and can set. A method is also
proposed for pouring concrete material (5) into a plastic foam mould (24), in
which said mould is provided with a relatively large bottom aperture. By
subsequently exerting an impact load before the concrete is fully set
(after approximately 23 hours), the plastic mould becomes detached from
the concrete material and can further serve as a pack.

Abstract: IDDQ of an integrated circuit (105) is rapidly measured with system test
equipment (101) providing sampled pass/fail outputs. A switch (304) couples the
power supply to the integrated circuit and another switch (305) returns a sense signal
input to the integrated circuit such that the power may be interrupted to measure the
decay of the voltage across the integrated circuit. A monitor signal output is coupled
to the integrated circuit to enable monitoring of the voltage decay. At least one
processor (107), which periodically samples the voltage signal, compares the
magnitude of the voltage signal at the time of each said periodic sample to a
predetermined reference signal, indicates a voltage signal less than the reference
signal and calculates the IDDQ based upon the number of periodic samples from the
time power is removed from the integrated circuit and the voltage of the reference
signal.

Each mechanized finger includes a belt (90, 92) that enhances the gripping ability of the loading mechanism. In operation, with the grasping device opened, the articulated arm is extended to reach out toward a container of interest. The swivel mount is operated to pivot the articulated arm as required for the loading mechanism to engage the container. The articulated arm is operated further to lift and dump the container in the vehicle above the swivel mount.
