Abstract: La présente invention concerne des vannes, notamment, mais pas uniquement, des robinets-vannes. Selon cette invention, une vanne comprend un logement (1) et un élément de vanne (2), qui est mobile à l'intérieur du logement (1) et permet d'ouvrir et de fermer la vanne. Selon un premier aspect, la vanne est pourvue de systèmes permettant de réduire la force de frottement entre le logement (1) et l'élément de vanne (2). Selon un second aspect, la vanne est pourvue d'un élément de commande (20), qui est associé à l'élément de vanne (2) et passe à travers une ouverture (21) située dans le logement (1), qui est close lorsque la vanne se trouve en position ouverte. Une telle vanne s'adresse aux problèmes posés par le fonctionnement des vannes de l'état de la technique, notamment des robinets-vannes, plus particulièrement aux problèmes posés par la résistance due au frottement lors du mouvement de l'élément de vanne et aux problèmes d'entretien de la vanne.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de fabrication d'un textile stratifié non tissé, qui consiste à déposer une première couche non tissée sur un support mobile, à déposer une seconde couche non tissée sur la première couche et à acheminer les couches sous un collecteur. Ce dernier comporte plusieurs groupes de jets séparés les uns des autres par une distance. L'eau est dirigée des groupes de jets sur les couches sous-jacentes afin de créer un textile stratifié. Du fait que les groupes de jets sont séparés les uns des autres, le textile stratifié présente un « enchevêtrement de modèles ». La formation de faisceaux s'effectue le long de lignes sensiblement linéaires, la formation étant moins dense dans des zones situées entre les zones de formation de faisceaux linéaires. On obtient ainsi un textile doté de zones présentant un enchevêtrement relativement important et d'autres zones présentant un enchevêtrement beaucoup plus faible. Lorsque trois couches sont stratifiées, les couches inférieure et supérieur étant en placage et la couche centrale en pâte, le présent procédé permet d'obtenir un textile stratifié doté d'une utilité particulière comme produit de nettoyage jetable dans les toilettes.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un démultiplexeur de signaux à multiplexeur temporel (TDM), qui comporte un répartiteur électrique qui répartit un signal de données TDM électrique en plusieurs signaux de données TDM électriques. Un circuit d'extraction du signal d'horloge génère un signal d'horloge synchronisé avec le signal de données TDM et ayant une fréquence se rapportant de manière harmonique à un débit de données de canal TDM simple. Un compensateur de phase règle la phase du signal d'horloge. Le démultiplexeur comporte également plusieurs circuits de décision, chacun ayant une entrée de données destinée à recevoir le signal de données TDM électrique. Chaque circuit de décision est également doté d'une entrée d'horloge couplée électriquement à une sortie du circuit d'extraction du signal d'horloge destinée à recevoir le signal d'horloge. Chaque circuit de décision produit des signaux TDM démultiplexés. Le compensateur de phase est réglé de façon à sélectionner les données recherchées dans chacun des signaux TDM démultiplexés.

Abstract: A radio receiver configurable to operate in either a low-IF or a zero-IF mode comprises a quadrature down-converter ( 108,110,112,114 ) for generating in-phase (I) and quadrature (Q) signals at an intermediate frequency and a complex filter ( 202 ) for performing image rejection filtering. One of the outputs (Q) of the filter ( 202 ) is terminated, the other (I) is passed to a non-complex ADC ( 206 ). The output from the ADC is processed digitally then a quadrature signal generator ( 212,214 ) generates quadrature-related IF signals which are passed to a down-converter ( 216,218 ) for conversion to baseband signals. By enabling analogue-to-digital conversion and channel filtering to be performed at IF on non-complex signals, significant power savings are possible. Further, the flexibility of the receiver is enhanced, enabling it to operate efficiently in both low-IF and zero-IF modes.

Title: Optical device
Inventor: HAMADA HIDENOBU
IPC: G02F1/09
Filed: 2002-02-07
Abstract: The invention provides a small optical device with which incident
light can be demultiplexed. The optical device includes a demultiplexing
portion (4) (first optical member) separating TE waves and TM waves of
incident light of a wavelength λ and an optical fiber (1) (optical input portion)
inputting incident light into the demultiplexing portion (4). The
demultiplexing portion (4) has a periodically changing refractive index. The
angle defined by the first reciprocal lattice vector α 1  and the second
reciprocal lattice vector α 2  of the demultiplexing portion (4) at the wavelength
λ is not greater than 90°. In the direction of the first reciprocal lattice
vector α 1  the wave number of the TE wave is larger than the wave number of
the TM wave. In the direction of the second reciprocal lattice vector α 2  the
wave number of the TE wave is smaller than the wave number of the TM
wave. The optical fiber (1) inputs the incident light in a direction that is
parallel to a plane including the first reciprocal lattice vector α 1  and the
second reciprocal lattice vector α 2 . The device can also be used in a
wavelength interleaver or a polarisation-dependent or polarisation-independent optical
isolator.

successively multiplying an initial value by (I/A). Values of density of each
pixel in the captured images are summed. Values of constants B and C in
equations: 1 = B·Zmax + C; 0 = B·Zmin + C are obtained based on the
