Abstract: L'invention concerne un dispositif (100) extensible d'étirement de la peau. Ce dispositif comprend des extrémités (56, 57) opposées de contact cutané qui entrent en contact avec la surface de la peau (30) sur les côtés opposés d'une zone de surface cutanée qui présente des micro-voies (31). Lorsque le dispositif (100) d'étirement de la peau se trouve en extension, la peau (30) située entre les extrémités (56, 57) opposées est mise sous tension, ou étirée. La peau est soumise à une tension allant de 0,01 à 10 mégapascals environ, de préférence de 0,05 à 2 mégapascals environ. Cet étirement de la peau peut être unidirectionnel ou multidirectionnel. Dans d'autres formes de réalisation, ces dispositifs (101, 102, 103, 104, 105) étirent la peau (30) par le biais d'une aspiration ou d'une force normale. L'étirement de la peau (30) permet de maintenir micro-voies (31) ouvertes afin d'améliorer le pénétration d'un agent (p. ex. un médicament) à travers ces dernières. L'étirement retarde en outre la fermeture des micro-voies (31).

Abstract: A seeding machine having a main seed hopper is in communication with a planting unit by a flexible tube. The planting unit has a horizontal working position and a vertical transport position. The main hopper supplies seed by gravity to the planting unit through the flexible tube. The planting unit is provided with a vacuum seed meter. The seed meter has a seed disc with a vacuum side and a working seed puddle side. An isolator brush; arranged in a chordal manner on the seed puddle side of the seed disc, defines the discharge area of the seed meter. A  first brush intersecting the isolator brush extends downwardly and radially inward along the seed disc. The first brush, together with the isolator brush, defines boundaries of a transport seed puddle when the planting unit is pivoted into its vertical transport position. A second brush extends downwardly and radially inward along the seed disc. The first and second brushes define a seed return gap through which seed from the top of the seed meter can be returned to the working seed puddle.

Abstract: Method and apparatus for detection of the presence of a train wheel on a train track that overcomes problems associated with previously known detectors. The invention includes a method for detecting the presence of a train wheel on a train track. The method includes the steps of: a) generating an electromagnetic field using at least one electromagnetic field generator sensor including a resonance tank circuit; b) providing an electrical charge to the tank circuit when amplitude of the frequency drops below a predetermined level by using a charging circuit; c) providing a feed back from the tank circuit permitting the charging circuit to determine when the amplitude of the frequency has dropped below the predetermined level; d) holding the electromagnetic field generator proximate a train rail so that a train wheel causes a drop in the frequency amplitude below a second threshold level when a train wheel partially affects the field, and so that there frequency amplitude below a third threshold level below the second threshold level when the train wheel is located so that it fully affects the field; e) detecting when there is an increase in frequency amplitude above a first threshold level indicating that the electromagnetic field generator is no longer in a proper position relative to the train rail; f) detecting when there is a change in frequency amplitude relative to the threshold levels; and g) compensating for drift of frequency amplitude between the first and second threshold levels and ceasing such compensating when the frequency amplitude is above the first threshold level or below the second threshold level. The method includes all uses of the detector and apparatus as previously described. The invention further includes apparatus for practicing the method of the invention.
