Patent EP-0790748-B1 (EP)
Inventor: MERCURIALI JEAN-PIERRE
IPC: H04W76/04

Abstract: The method involves using an exchange system which can be constructed e.g. from four exchanges. Each exchange is organised in clusters with a number of control units for particular clusters, each of which consists of a number of access points to the system. The access points may serve as interfaces to different types of line e.g. analogue telephones (50), digital terminals and radio terminals by the use of radio access points. Each cluster possesses the sufficient resources for communication between its own access points. Each exchange also includes a transport loop, allowing inter-cluster exchange in order to support communication between several different access points on different clusters. The loops may include 40Mbits/sec digital lines, organised as channel circuits offering access between clusters.

Abstract: In order to inspect objects (10), particularly drinks bottles, these are transported on two conveyors (12, 14), which exhibit a mutual lateral separation and run at different speeds, so that the objects (10) rotate about their vertical axis. Within the distance separating the conveyors (12, 14) a bottom checking installation (30, 32) is provided. A rail (16) for guiding the objects (10) can be arranged, stretching in the direction of transport above the first, slower-running conveyor (12), in such a way that the objects (10) on the first conveyor (12) stand on the edge strip between the rail (16) and the edge of the first conveyor (12), and the width of this edge strip amounts to up to about ⅓ of the diameter of the objects.

Abstract: The Cardan mechanism is extended by the addition of a further coupling to ensure full movement without dead point. The mechanism has two rotational movements about independent x- and y-axes, turning through angles  alpha  and  beta . It is based on a classical Cardan suspension in which the y-axis is able to pivot about the x-axis by an angle  alpha . The mechanism further includes a provision to allow the x-axis to pivot about the y-axis by a third angle  gamma . The mechanism includes a coupling between the two articulations (Q,A) controlling these rotational movements. This ensures that the angles  alpha  and  gamma  are equal.

Abstract: A high speed fluid jet nozzle made at least in part of a porous material and configured so that the porous part of the nozzle is surrounded at least in part by a reservoir containing a lubricant fluid. As a cutting fluid passes through the nozzle, lubricant from the reservoir is drawn through the porous material and lubricates the surfaces of the nozzle exposed to the fluid jet. The invention not only resolves the main difficulties of the prior art relating to nozzle wear, it expands the use and applications of high speed fluid jet cutters. By reducing wear of a jet nozzle, it is possible to increase the jet speed and reduce the nozzle diameter even further than the prior art, allowing much higher precision, deeper cutting, and usage on difficult to cut material such as ceramics. The invention thus provides a reliable but yet very simple method for preventing nozzle wear.

Abstract: A catheter having expandable electrodes for applying energy to a hollow anatomical structure such as a vein. When used on a vein, the catheter is useful for a minimally invasive treatment of venous insufficiency. The catheter includes conductive end rings to which the electrodes are attached, for mechanically connecting and electrically tying electrodes together to provide for single wire electrical connection points, for transmitting energy while more evenly spacing the electrodes. Expandable arms are formed of electrically conductive material and insulated along their length except for an intermediate section that functions as the electrode. The arms are tapered to allow more room for wiring and to reduce the possibility of shorting between the ends of the arms. The catheter further includes thermocouples in the electrodes for measuring temperatures on the outer surface of the electrode. Slots are formed in the arms for mounting the thermocouples. The temperature at the hollow anatomical structure is monitored and if a rapid, large temperature decrease of short duration is noted, the power is maintained constant as a fluid flush has been detected.

Abstract: The invention relates to a device for producing a strip with self-adhesive labels (12) or other materials with parts (22) placed underneath. According to the invention, the labels are detached from a first carrier strip (11) at a first removal station (13) and placed onto a second carrier strip (14). The other parts (22) are delivered intermittently on a third carrier strip (21). A second removal station (23) detaches said other parts and places them on a fourth carrier strip (24) in the desired position. Said fourth carrier strip (24) may act as the second carrier strip (14). The original carrier strip (11) may also act as the second or fourth carrier strip. The other parts (22) can be placed in any position under the labels (12) using an appropriate control system. Security elements can be used advantageously as other parts. This provides a simple means of producing a strip of security labels. The security element is transferred onto the item being labelled at the same time, i.e. during the same operation as the self-adhesive label is peeled off of the carrier strip, said security element then protecting said item. The invention also relates to a device for laterally controlling and regulating the guiding of lines and strips, especially lines of labels and their carrier strips, the edge of the line being identified by means of a line-edge control device with a sensor. The regulating process takes place by changing the direction of the control rolls over which the line is guided. According to the invention, a sliding is also provided, the line being guided in said sliding. The sliding has a straight edge which conveys a reference edge to the sensor for determining the edge of the line, and is arranged in the area of the sensor. The sliding is easy-running and floats along with the laterally guided line.
