Abstract: La présente invention concerne un dispositif destiné à plier des rabats verticaux de contenant de type caisse (1) déplacé le long d'une ligne (100) d'emballage de produits (3) placés dans ces contenants de type caisse (1). Ce dispositif comprend un élément de type came (11), guidé le long d'une trajectoire cyclique (T) à l'aide d'un support et de moyens de fonctionnement (20) coopérant avec un moyen de correction de trajectoire (6). La trajectoire (T) comprend une première partie (T1), le long de laquelle l'élément de type came (11) se déplace proche du contenant (1), en amont du rabat vertical arrière (5) par rapport à la direction de mouvement (W) du contenant (1), et une seconde partie (T2), le long de laquelle le rabat vertical arrière (5) est poussé. La seconde partie (T2) est sensiblement parallèle et concordante à la direction (W). Les moyens de support et de fonctionnement (20) comportent une poulie (21) et une tige de connexion (22), à l'effet de guider l'élément de type came (11) et une barre (13), qui lui est connectée le long d'un arc de circonférence.

Abstract: The invention relates to a refillable CO2 gas cylinder that comprises a valve (1) for drawing and refilling CO2. Said valve comprises a valve housing (2) with a connection thread (2b) and a valve bore (3) in which a valve body (4) is received and can be axially displaced. Said valve body is spring-biased towards the exterior against a sealing seat (8) and adjoins an exterior actuation pin (6). The invention also relates to a pertaining filling device and to a filling method. The aim of the invention is to better protect the cylinder against being unrightfully refilled, especially not by simply connecting the cylinder to a high pressure CO2 source. To this end, the inventive valve body (4) forms a piston-cylinder unit together with an axially displaceable locking member (5). Said piston-cylinder unit can be impinged upon with CO2 pressurized gas via an overflow channel (11) that leads through the valve body (4) to the exterior. The locking member (5) can be axially extended towards the interior until it buts against a stop (2c) in the valve bore (3).

Abstract: Cette invention a trait à une méthode, ainsi qu'au système correspondant, permettant de surveiller et de superviser en temps réel un processus de biofabrication en réponse à la cartographie peptidique par spectroscopie aux infrarouges (IR) d'une biomolécule. On utilise la spectroscopie aux IR pour procéder à la cartographie peptidique in situ d'une biomolécule active dans le cadre d'un processus de biofabrication. Dans une réalisation, on utilise une spectroscopie aux infrarouges avec transformation de Fourier (FTIR) pour déterminer si une biomolécule active ou vieillie est présente dans les étapes d'un processus de biofabrication. Dans un exemple préféré, le processus de biofabrication permet de produire un matériau biologique en vrac. Ce processus de biofabrication comporte quatre étapes, bioproduction, récupération, purification et stockage en vrac. On utilise la spectroscopie FTIR pour contrôler l'optimisation de chaque étape en procédant à des commandes à rétroaction ainsi que pour procéder à la cartographie peptidique en temps réel et in situ et ce, afin de déterminer si des biomolécules actives sont présentes à chaque étape du processus.

Abstract: A wavelength converter which employs an optical fiber and has high converter efficiency. The polarization planes
of a signal light and an exciting light outputted from a laser diode (LD) (103) are respectively controlled by polarization controllers
(PC's) (101 and 104) and the phases of the lights are respectively modulated by phase modulators (PM's) (102 and 105) in accordance
with modulation signals outputted from an oscillator (110). Then, the output lights from the PM's (102 and 105) are multiplexed by
a coupler (106). After the multiplexed signal light and exciting light are amplified by an optical amplifier (EDFA) (107), they are
inputted to a dispersion shift fiber (DSP) (108). After wavelength transformation (four light waves mixing (FWM)) is practiced in
the DSP, an FWM light is outputted through a band-pass filter (BPF) (109).

Abstract: A method is provided for a mobile telephone users to pay small individual fees for certain content when surfing the Internet using a mobile telephone terminal, for example, a WAP-enabled terminal. The method establishes a payment gateway which is accessible by the mobile telephone Internet user via the mobile telephone terminal and by a provider via a provider server. Customer data of the user is held securely in a database of the payment gateway and is not transmitted over the Internet or held in the mobile terminal. A micropayment account opened at a bank is synchronized continuously with the payment gateway. To provide payment of fees for content, a reservation of a certain amount is made in the payment account via the payment gateway and is authorized by the user to the provider allowing the provider to debit amounts against the reservation. Actual charges are transmitted from the provider to the payment gateway and allocated against the reservation debiting the amounts from the micropayment account, crediting the provider and canceling the reserved amount.

Abstract: The present invention concerns an integration construction between a steam boiler provided with a combustion chamber and a steam turbine. The steam is conducted from the steam boiler (10) along a connector to the steam turbine (11) for rotating an electric generator (G) producing electricity. The supply water circulated via the steam boiler (10) is vaporized in vaporizer (190) located in the steam boiler (10) and superheated in a superheater (120). The supply water is conducted into the boiler through an economizer (20) acting as a heat exchanger, in which heat is transferred from the flue gases of the boiler into the supply water. The economizer (20) is provided with at least two sections, comprising at least one first economizer section (20a1) and at least one second economizer section (20a2). The supply water preheated with bled steams of the steam turbine is conducted in the steam boiler (10) further from the economizer (20) to the vaporizer and the superheater and therethrough, in the form of steam, to the steam turbine. A connector (19) leading to the economizer sections (20a1, 20a2) comprises a branch point (D1) to a by-pass connector (21) of supply water, whereby the economizer section (20a1) can be bypassed by at least part of the supply water flow. The invention also concerns a method in preheating of the supply water for the steam turbine and in its control.

Abstract: Devices which are used in known picking methods supply insufficient quantities and are susceptible to malfunction, in addition to having an unduly complicated and consequently expensive construction. The invention aims to provide a method and a corresponding device which allow a high-capacity continuous provision of spools, using a picking unit with a simplified design. To this end, the disordered spools (2) are displaced in a first transport step on an oblique plane against a rotating disc (10) which moves in a transverse direction in relation to the direction of transport of the spools (2). The movement of the rotating disc (10) aligns the spools (2) parallel to the rotating disc (10) and then in a second transport step, the spools are transported individually, one after the other, in the direction of movement of the rotating disc (10), by a conveyer belt (13) comprising carriers (17).
