Patent EP-0480675-A1 (EP)
Inventor: HILL JAMES A
IPC: B65D1/26
Filed: 1991-10-08
Abstract: A two-piece nestable cup-like container (c) comprising a continuous side wall (B) having an open upper end and includes a recessed bottom (15). The side wall (B) is formed from a single double ended sheet of a heat-shrinkable thermoplastic material. The ends of the sheet are joined to one another along a liquid-tight seam. The side wall extends downwardly from a point near the open mouth of the upper end of the container to a point near the bottom and is thereafter folded at its lower edge upwardly to form a double wall portion (10,12) and a radially inwardly extending annular portion (13) that underlies a separate bottom member (14) that is sealingly joined to the radially inwardly extending portion on the bottom edge of the side wall. In accordance with the method and apparatus, a sleeve made from the sheet by joining the ends is heat shrunk on a mandrel and the free edge at the lower portion of the side wall is caused to shrink inwardly. Opposed shaping members are moved toward one another while the sheet is at an appropriate temperature for shrinking and forming to define the doubled wall edge and to heat seal the bottom member to the radially inwardly extending portion.

Title: Optical bypass switch.
Inventor: UKEN WILLIAM DAVID
IPC: G02B6/35
Filed: 1990-12-20
Abstract: An optical bypass switch includes a normal state and a bypass state, a transmission optical fiber having a signal withdrawn therefrom and injected thereto in its normal state so as to be capable of use in a ring or bus architecture. In the bypass state of the switch, the transmission optical fiber is substantially disengaged so that a signal being transmitted thereby can bypass the switch, and in this state optical fibers connected to a transmitter and a receiver of the bypass switch are maintained in a bent attitude so as to allow signals to be withdrawn and injected thereinto. A loop back path, e.g. a connector optical fiber, is provided which allows a path between the transmitter and the receiver to be completed in the bypass state of the bypass switch, and logic circuitry is provided for analyzing signals detected by the receiver which should have originated from the transmitter for evaluating a state of operation of the transmitter, receiver, and connecting means therefor. Whenever the logic circuitry detects a malfunction in any of these elements, e.g. the transmitter, the receiver and connecting structure therefor, the optical bypass switch is kept in its bypass state and prevented from re-engaging the transmission fiber so as to prevent the bypass switch from optically coupling to the transmission fiber when its electro-optic elements are not functioning properly.

Abstract: Apparatus for automated polyelectrolyte measurement of liquid process materials including a sample vessel which defines an electrically insulating, cylindrical cavity below a larger-diameter reservoir. Electrodes are located at the ends of the cylindrical cavity and an insulating piston is reciprocated with a predetermined, small clearance within the cavity. The charge displacement is measured between the electrodes. An outlet channel opening at the floor of the cylindrical cavity is connected to an outlet pipe. A rinsing duct with valve control for introducing a rinsing fluid into the reservoir. A controller is connected to an actuator for reciprocating the piston, to a valve in the outlet pipe and to the rinsing valve. After each polyelectrolyte measurement the substance under test is removed from the sample vessel through the outlet channel, rinsing fluid is introduced, and the rinsing fluid is removed through the outlet channel while the piston reciprocates. The reciprocation of the piston provides a pumping action which is used to expel the substance under test and enables effective rinsing and cleaning of the apparatus with no need for manual intervention.

Abstract: On connaît des commutateurs fixés à la colonne de direction de véhicules à moteur ayant un boîter et un levier d'actionnement monté dans le boîtier de manière qu'il pivote autour d'un axe, ayant une poignée pouvant pivoter autour d'un axe de rotation qui s'étend dans le sens de la longueur du levier d'actionnement et mobile entre au moins deux positions de commutation, ainsi qu'une tige de commutation orientée au moins approximativement dans le sens de la longueur du levier d'actionnement, que l'on fait pivoter au moyen de la poignée pivotante autour de son axe longitudinal de manière à déplacer au moins un contact électrique agencé dans le boîter du commutateur. En général, les fabricants d'automobiles demandent des angles déterminés de rotation entre les positions individuelles de commutation de la poignée pivotante. Ces angles de rotation ne facilitent pas toujours l'actionnement du contact électrique. Pour cette raison, avec la présente invention, lors de la rotation de la poignée pivotante selon un angle déterminé de rotation entre une position de commutation et une position adjacente de commutation, la tige de commutation peut pivoter selon un angle de rotation différent de l'angle de rotation de la poignée pivotante.

Abstract: Dans cette invention, un réseau neuronal permettant d'ajuster un point de consigne dans un système de gestion de processus industriels remplace un opérateur humain. Le réseau neuronal fonctionne suivant trois modes qui sont: formation, fonctionnement, et nouvelle formation. En fonctionnement, le réseau neuronal est formé en utilisant des données d'entrée de formation en même temps que des données d'entrée. Les données d'entrée proviennent du ou des capteurs surveillant le traitement. Les données d'entrée sont utilisées par le réseau neuronal pour produire des données de sortie. Les données d'entrée de formation sont les réglages du point de consigne effectués par un opérateur humain. Les données de sortie sont comparées aux données d'entrée de formation pour générer des données d'erreurs, qui sont utilisées pour ajuster les facteurs de pondération du réseau neuronal afin de le former. Lorsque le réseau neuronal a achevé sa formation, il passe en mode de fonctionnement. Dans ce mode, cette invention utilise les données d'entrée pour prédire les données de sortie utilisées pour ajuster le point de consigne fourni à l'unité de commande de régulation. De cette manière, l'opérateur est efficacement remplacé. Dans le mode de nouvelle formation, cette invention utilise de nouvelles données d'entrée de formation pour former une nouvelle fois le réseau neuronal en ajustant le ou les facteurs de pondération.

Abstract: On présente un système graphique qui recourt à une organisation arborescente concernant les segments graphiques (a-m) susceptibles de se superposer si l'on présente une image bidimensionnelle. Dans cette organisation, chaque segment fils hérite des transformations spatiales d'image auxquelles on soumet son père. Pour accroître la souplesse de représentation de cette organisation arborescente, il est possible d'associer les segments père et fils (c; b, d) par une relation d'annexion telle qu'en dehors des limites du père (c) dans cette image, le fils (b, d) est affranchi de son père. Cette relation d'annexion (40, 42) peut être du type "dessus" ou "dessous" selon que le père ou le fils bénéficie d'une priorité de superposition lorsque les segments de superposent. Avec ces relations d'annexion (40, 42), on peut construire une image où, par exemple, on agrafe une "note" à un "rapport" avec un "trombone", la note et le trombone dépassant du rapport et s'y superposant et le trombone dépassant et masquant à son tour la note. Les trois éléments peuvent bouger, tourner ou changer d'échelle en bloc si l'on fait bouger, tourner ou changer d'échelle le rapport. Dans cet exemple, la note a pour père le rapport auquel elle est associée par une relation d'annexion "dessus", et il existe une relation similaire entre le trombone et la note.
