Abstract: The invention relates to a container for storing and pouring liquids, which comprises an internal volume and a pouring opening ( 8 ). The interior volume is subdivided into a storage volume ( 3 ) and a withdrawal volume ( 4 ) which communicate with each other ( 10 ), said withdrawal volume ( 4 ) leading to the pouring opening ( 8 ) in such a manner that the pouring opening ( 8 ), when the container ( 1 ) is tilted between the critical angle and the overend position of the container ( 1 ), invariably is the bottom-most point of the withdrawal volume ( 4 ). The container has a ventilation pipe ( 17 ) that extends from the pouring opening ( 8 ) and leads to the storage volume ( 3 ). In the overend position, the housing areas ( 13 ) of the container ( 1 ) delimiting the storage volume ( 3 ) downward have a descending gradient towards the linking opening ( 10 ) or the linking channel between the storage volume ( 3 ) and the withdrawal volume ( 4 ) and/or the housing areas ( 25 ) of the container ( 1 ) delimiting the withdrawal volume ( 4 ) downward have a descending gradient towards the pouring opening ( 8 ).

Abstract: The present invention relates to a screw head (1) with a contact surface (6) and contact organs (9) for turning of the screw about its longitudinal axis (12) by means of tools. From the screw head protrudes a screw shaft (2) with a threaded portion (5). Into the screw head there protrudes a screw shaft (2) with a threaded portion (5). Into the screw head there protrudes at the contact surface a ring−shaped track (11) and exhibits in the axial direction of the screw a depth (a) which exceeds the radial width (b) of the track. In this way the screw head (1) is divided into a peripheral outer compression portion (18) positioned radially outside of the track and an expansion portion (19) positioned radially inside of the track. These two portions are arranged to elastically pre−tense the screw it is screwed into an object.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un technique de synchronisation entre les pipelines dans un appareil de traitement de données. L'appareil de traitement de données comprend un processeur principal pouvant être mis en oeuvre pour exécuter une séquence d'instructions, le processeur principal comprenant un premier pipeline comportant une première pluralité d'étages de pipeline et un coprocesseur pouvant être mis en oeuvre pour exécuter des instructions de coprocesseur dans ladite séquence d'instructions. Le coprocesseur comprend un deuxième pipeline comportant une deuxième pluralité d'étages de pipeline, chaque instruction de coprocesseur étant prévue pour être acheminée à la fois par le premier et le deuxième pipelines. Au moins une file d'attente de synchronisation est également prévue pour coupler un étage de pipeline prédéterminé d'un des pipelines à un autre étage de pipeline associé de l'autre pipeline, l'étage de pipeline prédéterminé pouvant être mis en oeuvre pour provoquer la mise en place d'un jeton dans une file d'attente de synchronisation lors du traitement d'une instruction de coprocesseur et l'étage de pipeline associé pouvant être mis en oeuvre pour traiter ladite instruction de coprocesseur lors de la réception du jeton provenant de la file d'attente de synchronisation. Avec cette approche, les premier et deuxième pipelines sont synchronisés entre l'étage de pipeline prédéterminé et l'étage de pipeline associé, ce qui assure par conséquent la synchronisation correcte des pipelines pour les transferts cruciaux d'information sans nécessiter une telle synchronisation stricte à tous les étages.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming a plug in a passageway. The apparatus comprises a carrier which in use is lowered into the passageway, the carrier comprising an elongate body of a material resistant to creep which supports at least two spaced apart portions that are a sliding fit in the well such that a gap is formed between each of the portions and the passageway. A body of material the melting point of which is higher than the temperature within the passageway and which expands as it solidifies is supported on the carrier. A heating device is provided for melting the body of material such that the melted material fills a space defined between the first and second portions. The carrier is cooled preferentially to ensure that the molten material solidifies rapidly adjacent the two spaced apart portions, thereby resisting flow of the material as it solidifies past the spaced apart portions. Means are provided to obstruct the gaps formed between the portions and the passageway, the obstructing means being displaced into the gaps as a result of melting of the body of material or as a result of any creep of material after it has been melted and solidified.

Abstract: There is proposed a method and a module for real time control of power per optical channel in a multi-channel optical communication line formed by a group of optical elements connected in a chain by fiber spans. The group of elements comprises one or more optical fiber amplifiers (OFA); each of the spans is characterized by its span loss, while each of the OFA is characterized by its gain and its designed output power per channel. The method comprises steps of calculating an expected total input power value (EIP) for a particular optical amplifier (OFA) in the line, measuring a real total input power (MIP) at the particular optical amplifier, and comparing the values. If a difference between the EIP and the MIP at the OFA exceeds a predetermined value, the method (and the module) ensures adjusting the gain of the OFA to maintain its output power per channel constant.

Abstract: An analytical system for analysing and controlling a shaping process for glass products is described. The analytical system comprises an infrared-sensitive measurement system and a processor communicating therewith, the infrared-sensitive measurement system being equipped to measure infrared radiation originating from hot glass products immediately after the shaping process for the glass products and the processor being equipped to determine a heat distribution in the glass products on the basis of information determined by the measurement system. Because the infrared-sensitive measurement system is sensitive only to radiation in the so-called Near Infra Red (NIR) region, radiation originating from the interior of the glass wall can be measured. This makes novel analytical methods possible with which, inter alia, a distinction can be made between a change in glass wall thickness and a change in temperature.
