Abstract: A method and a device for dispersing grains, particularly sand, are useful to clean pig-iron moulds or castings, to polish their surface or for other uses. The method is characterized in that the air compressor supplies hot air into the grain container and into the feed cock. Furthermore, the regulation is carried out by means of a pipe made of flexible and elastic material.

Title: Protection de circuits integres igfet contre les decharges electrostatiques
IPC: H01L29/78
Filed: 1986-09-22
Granted: 1991-08-28
Abstract: Les circuits intégrés utilisés dans une technologie à porte isolée (p.ex. CMOS) ont été protégés contre une décharge électrostatique (ESD) par un transistor à effet de champ à porte métallique. Il a été établi qu'un transistor bipolaire ''parasite'' existe en parallèle avec le dispositif à porte métallique. De manière surprenante, on obtient une protection supérieure en supprimant la porte métallique, pour ne compter ainsi que sur la charge d'avalanche du dispositif bipolaire pour la protection de polarité opposée. On a considéré comme établi que l'effet de champ du dispositif de porte métallique limitait de manière indésirable le passage de courant dans la technique de l'art antérieur. La technique de l'invention peut être mise en oeuvre de manière avantageuse en utilisant une diode plutôt qu'un transistor comme élément protecteur.

The washer includes a downwardly extending hub, which may be equipped with means for retaining the washer in a batten strip.
Patent EP-0249839-B1 (EP)
IPC: B61B12/02
Filed: 1987-06-06
Granted: 1990-12-12
Abstract: At each station of the overhead cable transport installation the vehicles which have been released or unclamped from the conveying cable are decelerated or accelerated by pneumatic wheels. Between the V-belt drive and the hub of each pneumatic wheel there is arranged a free-wheeling clutch or slip coupling equipped with a pre-biased restoring or return spring. The free-wheeling clutch transmits in one direction the torque or rotational moment from the V-belt drive to the pneumatic wheel without play. In the opposite direction such free-wheeling clutch rotates against the restoring moment of the pre-biased restoring spring. As a result there is eliminated the slip and the resultant wear of the pneumatic wheels upon the friction plate with which they come into contact during such time in which two neighboring pneumatic wheels engage with the friction plate.

Title: Device to close a wound
IPC: A61B17/08
Filed: 1987-11-21
Granted: 1992-10-28
Abstract: A gaping surgical incision can be closed by drawing the edges of the incision toward one another by the application of traction to the wound. Adhesive strips which project beyond support tapes of a conventional garment-type slide fastener stringer are then applied to the skin along the incision and the slider is closed to provide a healing closure for the wound. Spacer strips between the skin and the support tapes are spaced outwardly from the respective coupling elements to define a free space and prevent the wound from contacting the coupling elements or the support tapes.

Granted: 1993-12-29
Abstract: Une cassette à bande convient à un magnétoscope dans lequel deux types de cassettes à bande ayant des dimensions extérieures différentes peuvent être introduits. La cassette à bande a un couvercle antérieure (80) qui recouvre une bande magnétique étendue sur la surface antérieure du corps principal de la cassette et un couvercle postérieur (8) qui recouvre le dos de la bande magnétique. On peut éviter une introduction erronée de la cassette en formant le bord antérieur de la surface supérieure du couvercle postérieur perpendiculairement (81c) à la surface supérieure du corps principal de la cassette, de sorte que l'on puisse introduire aisément et de manière fiable la cassette à bande dans le magnétoscope. En outre, la cassette à bande est très étanche à l'air, ce qui empêche une détérioration de la qualité de l'image provoquée par une augmentation des pertes de signal due à l'entrée de poussières et similaires.

Title: Wire twisting device
IPC: B21F15/04
Filed: 1988-05-24
Granted: 1992-09-16
Abstract: The wire twisting device has a twisted bar (1) with a binding hook (4) which is set in rotation when a gripping part is pulled. The binding hook can be swivelled about an axis (5) and is held in the normal position by a locking slide (7) engaging in indentations (6) in the binding hook. When pulling the wire loop around the binding hook, a latch (13) is lifted, by which means the locking slide and thus the binding hook are unlocked and swivelled, by which means it can slide out of the wire loop. 
<??>A device of this type allows a constant and optimum twisting of the wire without the risk of it tearing and permits the automatic pulling out of the binding hook in the same pulling movement. 
<??>The formed wire for tying reinforced iron bars is constructed as a single wire hoop (17) with a welding point (23). By this means, on the one hand its manufacture is simplified and material is saved and, on the other hand, a firm tying is guaranteed.

Abstract: A laser end point detector incorporating adjustable-focus, variable-orientation detection optics for monitoring different types of structures such as laser-transparent thin films, isolated trenches or holes and patterned arrays of trenches or holes. A collector lens package comprising a laser and a focusing lens are mounted in a hole in a collector lens which is pivotally mounted for selectively focusing zero, first and higher orders of diffractions reflected from the wafer onto an associated detector to monitor the etching of different types of structures. For example, zero order diffraction signals are used to monitor the etching of large target areas in transparent thin films or of non-patterned trenches of holes. First order (or higher) diffraction signals are used for monitoring the etching of patterned features which effect a two-dimensional diffraction grating, such as the capacitor holes in dynamic random access memories.
