Abstract: L'invention concerne un nouveau procédé pour le recyclage des polyesters de post-consommation ou de rebuts. On fait réagir ces matériaux avec un glycol pour obtenir par dépolymérisation du polyester un monomère ou bien un oligomère de faibre poids moléculaire. On purifie ensuite le monomère ou l'oligomère selon le cas, en utilisant une ou plusieurs étapes qui comprennent la filtration, la cristallisation et, à titre facultatif, l'adsorption ou l'évaporation. Le monomère ou oligomère résultant est une matière première particulièrement adaptée à la production de polyesters à base d'acide ou d'esters, utilisés dans la fabrication de matériaux d'emballage. Etant donné que des étapes de purification sont prévues dans le procédé, aucune spécification rigoureuse n'est nécessaire pour les matériaux en polyester utilisés au préalable.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for launching and taking aboard a floating device (6) at a ship (1) under way. Said floating device (6) is arranged in and connected to a cradle (4) which is floating as such and open at the back. Said cradle hangs in a flexible carrying means (10) and is launched using a hoisting means (11) arranged at said ship (1). The bow portion (14) of said cradle (4) is guided using a flexible separate towing means (15) in such a manner that said cradle (4) when it floats on the water (2) will be directed in the ship's (1) general travelling direction. When said floating device (6) is not connected to said cradle (4) it is able freely to move into said cradle (4) and out therefrom through its stern portion (8). The invention also relates to a means for launching and, respectively, taking aboard a floating device (6). Said means comprises an essentially U-shaped cradle (4) which is floating as such and having a space (7) which is open in a direction away from said ship, said space being adapted for receiving said floating device (6).

Abstract: A device and a method for leakage detection and leakage location in an installation, in particular in a pipeline, include a collecting line which is permeable to a substance and is connected to a pump and to a sensor for the substance. A metal wire is disposed outside and along the collecting line and is connected to a negative pole of a direct current source. When a solution, for example salt water, emerges from a leak in a pipeline, a gas, in particular hydrogen, is obtained by electrolysis at the metal wire. A concentration maximum of the gas in the collecting line is then detected and located.

Abstract: Orthopedic bone cements of low porosity, prepared by mixing together at least two liquid components under conditions that allow only minimal exposure to air, are disclosed. In a preferred system, each liquid component consists essentially of a solution of a linear (non-crosslinked) polymer or copolymer of methyl methacrylate (PMMA) dissolved in a non-crosslinking methyl methacrylate (MMA) monomer, with one such solution also containing an activator and a polymerization inhibitor and a second solution containing an initiator as well as a polymerization inhibitor. No reinforcing fillers are present, although a small amount (no more than 12% by weight of the total cement composition) of a radiopacifier may be included in the composition. Since polymerization is initiated by mixing together two or more liquid solutions, and such mixing may be performed in a mixing chamber in which no air is required or is introduced during the mixing operation, prior problems of cement porosity and weakness resulting from air entrapment are avoided or greatly reduced while the reliability and reproducibility of the mixing operation are greatly improved.

Abstract: A non-return device (10) comprises a flat silicone rubber tubing (50) defining a pair of walls (70, 90) which separate to admit fluid in a forward direction but remain together to block fluid flow in a reverse direction. A tubular body (30) surrounds the tubing (50) and comprises an off-set outlet (34) to provide an uninterrupted fluid flow surface for use in a non-vertical orientation. The tubing (50) is mounted on a cartridge (130) which moves axially within the tubular body and compresses the tubing against the tubular body to effect a seal when the device is mounted on an outlet. The tubing (50) provides good operational characteristics and sensitivity as a consequence of having a wall thickness which is 0.3% to 3% of its width.

Abstract: In a single-carrier or multi-carrier modulator (MOD), data symbols are modulated on at least one carrier in accordance with at least one constellation scheme. Idle data symbols are replaced by null data symbols and the latter null data symbols are associated with a low power constellation point of the at least one constellation scheme. The constellation points associated with the data symbols are randomly transformed into constellation points of equal power. In this way, idle data symbols are transferred with minimised power and sufficiently randomised to allow equaliser training and/or tracking at the receiving demodulator (DMOD) and to avoid high crest factors in multi-carrier systems. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A memory device requires a minimum of two input/output lines from an external testing device to be coupled thereto. A first DQ line from the memory device provides a direct data path from the array so that the external tester can read data from the array at the maximum speed of the memory device. Test mode circuitry for multiplexing and comparing multiple DQ lines during address compression mode is coupled to two or more DQ lines, including the first DQ line. The compression mode testing circuitry can include on-chip comparators that compare the data simultaneously written to, and read from, the memory device. The comparison circuitry outputs a data test flag indicating whether or not the data read from the memory device matches. The test flag is output through a multiplexer to a second DQ line. As a result, the speed of the device can be tested from the first DQ line, while the results of on-chip comparison can be sampled at the second DQ line.

Abstract: Apparata and methods are shown and described for converting closed-topped containers, e.g., common aluminum beverage cans and steel food cans, into open-topped containers having open top mouths surrounded by a smooth rounded lip. In a preferred version of the invention, a closed-topped container, e.g., an aluminum can, is inserted within a casing so that its top protrudes outwardly therefrom. A tubular ram having a cutter situated therein is inserted over the can top and rotated with respect to the can to sever the can top from the remainder of the can. The ram is then withdrawn and inverted to reveal an annular bending groove facing the cut upper can sidewall. The ram is then screwed onto the casing to bring the bending groove onto the cut upper can sidewall, thereby bending a rolled lip on the can sidewall. The closed-topped can is thus converted into a cup-like open-topped container.

Abstract: A selectively actuatable lighter device (10) is disclosed which includes a body defining reservoir (12) for containing a combustible gaseous medium such as butane, and having a valve (20) arranged to be selectively actuated between a normally closed position and an open position which permits the exit of the gaseous medium. Such lighter (10) can selectively produce sparks at a location (19, 22) proximate to the gaseous medium exit to ignite the gaseous medium. Such lighter device (10) embodies a resiliently releasable valve actuator (14) which normally prevents actuation of the valve (22). The valve actuator (14) includes an interfering portion (14A) which is selectively movable to a position out of interference with an interfering portion (12B) of the lighter body, so that the gaseous medium may be released and ignited by the sparks. Once the valve actuator (14) is depressed and released, it returns to its closed or latched position to prevent actuation of the valve to the open position. To "re-use" the lighter, the valve actuator (14) must again be moved to an unlatched position so that the valve (22) can be actuated for subsequent ignition of the gaseous medium.
