IPC: B01D1/00
Filed: 2008-10-28
Abstract: Évaporateur flottant souple pour distillation de l'eau par énergie solaire. Dans un mode de réalisation préféré, on trouve un évaporateur flottant permettant à l'eau de s'évaporer entre deux parois extérieures isolées faites de matériaux inorganiques: une plaque supérieure transparente et une plaque inférieure opaque d'une couleur noire absorbant la chaleur. L'évaporateur est souple et flotte librement depuis son point d'ancrage au gré de la direction du vent et de la houle. La vapeur d'eau saturée et chauffée provenant de l'évaporateur est pompée dans un condenseur, ce qui produit de l'eau distillée.

Abstract: In a knee airbag device for a vehicle, which has upper and lower tethers that extend in a vehicle width direction and regulate a bag thickness of an airbag, and in which gas from an inflator is supplied between the upper and lower tethers, it is aimed to make a flow of the gas toward an upper portion and a lower portion from between the upper and lower tethers at the inside of the knee airbag smoother, and to improve deployability of the knee airbag in a vehicle vertical direction. 
     Upper and lower tethers 16 and 18 are arranged to be separated from each other in the vehicle vertical direction and are formed so that a vertical clearance therebetween increases approaching both vehicle width direction end portions 16A and 18A thereof. When the gas is supplied between the upper and lower tethers 16 and 18, the gas spreads to both vehicle width direction sides along the tethers 16 and 18 and smoothly moves around into an upper portion 14A and a lower portion 14B of a knee airbag 14 from both of the end portions 16A and 18A of the tethers 16 and 18.

Abstract: A tool assembly (61) for lapping, grinding, honing and polishing seal surfaces (50) on inner diameters of semi-blind cavities (36) in valve bodies (22). The tool (61) can bring seat surfaces (50) up to specification with abrasive wheels (63) having varying grit sizes. The wheels (63) are provided in an array of sizes to form a set of tools (61) for a range of diameters, abrasion and surface finish capacity. This design allows the first (i.e., smallest) tool (61) to enter a cavity (36) in a valve body (22) to begin cutting. The larger size wheels (63) increase the diameter of the cavity (36) being machined until the desired size is achieved. Wheels (63) with finer abrasive are then used to improve the surface finish of the cavity (36) while minimizing the material removal. When the desired diameter and/or surface finish has been achieved, a felt wheel may be used with a fine abrasive paste to provide the cavity (36) with the final surface finish specification.

Abstract: Les procédés et les compositions selon l'invention augmentent la concentration d'un ARN inhibiteur spécifique d'une séquence cible dans une cellule. Dans un mode de réalisation, lesdits procédés et compositions utilisent un premier polynucléotide comprenant un élément d'inactivation d'une séquence cible de ravageur liée de manière fonctionnelle à un promoteur actif dans la cellule végétale; et, un second polynucléotide comprenant un élément activateur de suppression comprenant la séquence cible de ravageur ou un de ses fragments ou variants actifs liés de manière fonctionnelle à un promoteur actif dans la cellule végétale. L'expression combinée de l'élément d'inactivation et de la séquence cible du ravageur, ou d'un de ses fragments ou variants actifs, conduit à l'amplification de l'ARN inhibiteur produit à partir de l'élément d'inactivation par rapport à celui pouvant être obtenu avec l'expression de l'élément d'inactivation seul. Par conséquent, les divers procédés et compositions selon l'invention donnent des procédés améliorés pour délivrer l'ARN inhibiteur à un organisme cible.
