Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif de gonflage bi-étagé (10) comportant un logement à deux chambres de propulsion (20 et 22) orientées latéralement. Une cloison perforée (18) assure la séparation latérale des deux chambres (20 et 22) et facilite entre elles la communication fluidique au moment de l'activation des deux chambres. Lorsque le dispositif de gonflage (10) s'enclenche, la première chambre (20) est activée indépendamment de la seconde (22) ; L'activation de la seconde chambre (22) peut se faire simultanément ou séquentuiellement par rapport à celle de la chambre (20). Plus simple à fabriquer, le système susmentionné offre une intégrité structurelle égale ou supérieure à celle des dispositifs de gonflage connus.

Abstract: A coated triggered start product is formed from a particulate core material comprising at least one water soluble active constituent and at least one coating layer applied on the particulate core material. The coating layer causes the product to exhibit "lock-off" type release characteristics whereby release of the active constituent of the core material from the coated product is essentially completely suppressed until release is initiated by application of a trigger material to the coating layer. Processes for preparing and using such triggered start products are also provided.

Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un système comprenant un dispositif utilisant une étiquette RF incorporée dans un boîtier, et un téléphone mobile comportant un lecteur de étiquette RF qui fonctionne en lisant l'étiquette RF afin d'exécuter une opération associée à cette étiquette RF. Lorsque l'utilisateur souhaite exécuter une opération déterminée à l'aide du téléphone, il peut éviter l'opération de saisie normale, généralement à l'aide du clavier, en manoeuvrant le dispositif de telle sorte que l'étiquette RF soit lue par le lecteur d'étiquette RF, l'appareil de communication personnel exécutant alors l'opération associée à l'étiquette RF. Ainsi, cette invention offre un accès rapide à des fonctions ou des opérations régulièrement utilisées sans qu'il soit nécessaire de naviguer dans un menu. En outre, l'accès à ces fonctions régulièrement utilisées est rendu intuitif par l'association d'un objet physique, c'est-à-dire le dispositif, à une opération.

Abstract: In an optical amplifying device, an optical beam passes multiple times through a grazing-incidence bounce amplifier, accessing different parts (G 1 ,G 2 ) of the gain region on each transit. This provides improved characteristics in beam quality, with higher power scalability. The multipass configuration can operate as a high gain amplifier device and, with the addition of suitable feedback such as reflectors (M 1 -M 4 ), as a laser oscillator to provide an optical source.

Abstract: A web handling apparatus includes a base, a housing, a splicing head mounted in the housing, and first and second non-rotatable swing out roll shafts, each shaft having opposite first and second ends. The roll shafts are normally positioned in the housing substantially parallel to the splicing head so that web can travel through the splicing head to on from web rolls on the roll shafts. A web accumulator mounted to the housing conducts web to or from the splicing head and the housing is movably mounted to the base so that the housing can move relative to the base in either direction parallel to the roll shafts. An actuator connected between the housing and the base moves the housing relative to the base in response to signals from a web position sensor so as to minimize the side lay of web extending to or from the apparatus. The splicing head employs special mirror image upper and lower splicing sections which facilitate preparation of the leading end of the ready web while the other web is running and the two splicing sections cooperate to make a consistent high quality butt or lap splices between the two webs.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing power consumption of consumer electronic devices that run on a battery or an accumulator, particularly portable applications such as mobile phones, laptops or MPEG players or recorders. They consist essentially of a host and a storage medium like a disk or means for receiving a storage medium like a disk drive that are coupled with an interface. Power management is very important because long battery life enhances user convenience. The invention determines whether it is more efficient either to leave the disk drive in the idle mode or to switch the drive to standby until the next data request appears. The disk drive is entered into the most efficient power mode. The time until the next request is determined by the host.
