Patent EP-1450009-A2 (EP)
Inventor: SEDDA EMMANUEL
IPC: F01L9/21
Filed: 2004-01-22
Abstract: The actuator has an electromagnet (108 1) and a magnetic plate (114 1) whose movement controls the movement of a valve of an internal combustion engine. The parameters of the magnetic circuit formed by the magnet and the plate enable a part of the circuit to be in a saturation state when the plate is at proximity of the electromagnet. The plate strangulates a conservative magnetic flux generated by the magnet. An independent claim is also included an internal combustion engine having a valve controlled by an actuator.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne, chez un distributeur, des informations sur des stocks de produits vendus à un client. Chez ce distributeur, le client programme un logiciel de référence conformément à des règles établis par lui client, demandant au distributeur de l'informer à certaines dates de l'état des stocks de produits. Selon cette programmation, le distributeur fournit à ces dates des informations sur les stocks de produits au moyen du logiciel de référence. Le client indique au vendeur s'il souhaite qu'on lui expédie les produits sans retard ou bien à une date ultérieure spécifiée. Le distributeur enregistre cette information dans une base de données et informe le client à intervalles réguliers de l'état des commandes, notamment en ce qui concerne les produits expédiés ou à expédier.

Abstract: La présente invention concerne une technique et une composition permettant de détruire des microbes, en particulier des bactéries, présentes dans l'anatomie au moyen d'érythrosine B avec un rayonnement électromagnétique. Dans une technique préférée de l'invention, une composition comprenant de l'érythrosine B est introduite dans une zone de traitement. Après qu'un moment suffisant s'est écoulé, on applique un rayonnement d'une longueur d'onde adaptée sur cette zone pour activer l'érythrosine B et, via une réaction photodynamique, pour détruire des bactéries. Le rayonnement préféré présente une longueur d'onde d'environ 530 nm. L'érythrosine B est incorporée dans un gel qui agit de façon à restreindre la réaction photodynamique à proximité du biofilm, permettant ainsi que seules les bactéries non souhaitées soient affectées et que la microflore naturelle ne soit pas touchée. Cette technique est efficace pour détruire au moins les bactéries gram positif et, particulièrement efficace dans des zones dans lesquelles des milieux complexes tels que la salive sont également présents.

Abstract: A method for multiple protocol wireless communications begins by determining
protocols of wireless communication devices within a proximal region. The method then
continues by determining whether the protocols of the wireless communication devices
within the proximal region are of a like protocol. The method continues by, when the
protocols of the wireless communication devices within the proximal region are not of a
like protocol, selecting a protocol of the protocols of the wireless communication devices
within the proximal region based on a protocol ordering to produce a selected protocol.
The method continues by utilizing the selected protocol by the wireless communication
devices within the proximal region to set up a wireless communication within the
proximal region.
