Inventor: MATHIS RAYMOND
IPC: D06M13/148
Filed: 1997-07-15
Abstract: A process for making synthetic fibers or nonwoven substrates hydrophilic made from the synthetic fibers comprising applying an effective amount of a finish composition onto the fibers or nonwoven substrates, the finish composition containing: (a) from 50 to 95% by weight of a hydrophobicizing agent selected from the group consisting of at least one quaternary ester amine salt corresponding to formula I:wherein R1 is an aliphatic alkyl group containing from 12 to 22 carbon atoms, R2 is either (CH2)n-O-COR1 or an alkyl group containing from 12 to 22 carbon atoms, R3 and R4, independently of one another, represent (CH2)n-R5, where R5 is H or OH and n is a number from 1 to 3, and X is either a halide, methosulfate, methophosphate or phosphate ion, a quaternary ester amine salt corresponding to formula II:wherein COR6 is an aliphatic acyl group containing from 12 to 22 carbon atoms and 0, 1, 2 or 3 double bonds, R7 is H or OH, n has a value of 1, 2 or 3 and X is either a halide, methosulfate, methophosphate or phosphate ion, and mixtures thereof; and (b) from 5 to 50% by weight of at least one alkyl glycoside corresponding to formula III:wherein R is a primary linear or methyl-branched aliphatic radical containing from 8 to 22 carbon atoms, G is a glycoside unit containing 5 or 6 carbon atoms and x is a number from 1 to 10, all weights being based on the total weight of the composition.

Abstract: Use of wild type and modified viral FLt promoters of FMV in the expression of chimeric genes in plant cells. The FLt promoter from FMV is modified with duplicated enhancer domains. The FLt promoter with its single or double enhancer domains is linked to heterologous coding sequences to form chimeric gene constructs. These genes have been shown to be expressed well in plant cells.

Abstract: An operation section 32 of a teaching operation panel 30
connected to a robot controller 10 through a cable 40 has a general
operation section 321 provided with a sub-display 323, and a graphic
display operation section 322 for a display 31 provided with a touch
panel. When a hand in touch with a hand mark 21' of the robot displayed
along with a graphic image 20' is moved on the display screen (as
indicated by an arrow A; from a position H1 to a position H2), the
touched positions are sequentially sensed by the touch panel and
converted to three-dimensional position data by using plane position data
(which is calculated based on either a line-of-sight in graphic display or a
specifically designated direction of a plane and the latest touched
position). Thus obtained three-dimensional position data is, on one hand,
used for sequentially updating the display of the graphic image 20', and,
on the other hand, sent to the robot controller 10 in order to be used for
jog-feeding the robot 20 (as indicated by an arrow A'). A mouse 34 may
be used instead of the touch panel. The line-of-sight in graphic display
may be determined by a sensor for detecting a three-dimensional
orientation.

Abstract: A conventional 2-1 interlaced (nominally 50 Hz field rate or nominally 60 Hz field rate) television signal is converted to a form suitable for display on a progressively-scanned variable-frame-rate high-resolution computer-type monitor. First, a succession of progressively-scanned video frames is derived from the interlaced television signal and each frame is repeated at least twice in succession. When the interlaced television signal is derived from a motion picture source, the progressively scanned frames are derived by merging opposite polarity fields derived from the same motion picture frame. For other sources, other interlace-to-progressive scan techniques, such as line duplication or line interpolation, are employed. The sequences of repeated progressively-scanned frames are written into a two frame memory at rate derived from the timing of the progressively-scanned video frames and are read out at a rate derived from the timing of the monitor's frame rate. Frames are skipped or duplicated in order to prevent memory underflow or overflow. Motion-discontinuity-free video displays at refresh rates from 50 Hz to 100 Hz, for 50 Hz inputs, and from 60 Hz to 120 Hz, for 60 Hz inputs may be achieved.

Abstract: L'invention porte sur un masque pour réseaux (10) à amplitude de période variable servant à produire un réseau de Bragg de période longue à l'aide d'un ressort à boudin (14). L'extension ou la contraction du ressort modifie la périodicité du masque (10). Un guide d'ondes optique photosensible (100) plane ou de fibres est placé à l'intérieur des spires du ressort (16) et le long de son (14) axe longitudinal. Un rayonnement actinique frappant le guide d'ondes ainsi masqué y produit une perturbation d'indice présentant la périodicité du masque. En fonction de la taille des spires et/ou de l'orientation du guide d'ondes par rapport au masque, on obtient des périodes de réseaux linéaires ou non linéaires.

Abstract: The invention is a biological process for purifying waste water in order to produce an effluent with a low content of carbon and of oxygenated nitrogen compounds. The process includes an initial step of mixing the waste water in a biological reactor with activated sludge to denitrify the resulting mixture. Then, air is introduced into the mixture to form an anoxic sludge thereby directly oxidizing carbon present in the anoxic sludge and removing carbon therefrom, simultaneous with the denitrification. The anoxic sludge is clarified to separate it from a denitrified intermediate effluent. The clarified anoxic sludge is recycled to the biological reactor. Then, intermediate effluent is nitrified to form a nitrified liquor and a portion of the nitrified liquor is recycled into the anoxic sludge that is present in the biological reactor, thereby subjecting the anoxic sludge to oxygen present in nitrified compounds and consequently further removing carbon from the anoxic sludge, simultaneous with the denitrification. The rate of removal of carbon is controlled as a function of the flow rate/pollution characteristics of the anoxic sludge while a redox potential of the anoxic sludge is continuously measured. A nitrate concentration of the intermediate effluent is continuously measured. There is an adjustment of an amount of air introduced into the anoxic sludge in accordance with the measured redox potential and measured nitrate concentration. A recycling flow rate of the nitrified liquor is adjusted in accordance with the measured redox potential and measured nitrate concentration. The remaining nitrified liquor is the final effluent.

Abstract: A Switching architecture comprising a first and a second Switch Fabrics (10, 20) including a
switch core (15, 25) located in a centralized building and a set of SCAL elements distributed
in different physical areas. Each SCAL element respectively comprises a SCAL Receive
element (11-i) and a SCAL Xmit element (12-i) for respectively permitting access to a
corresponding input and output port of the switch core. The Port Adapters (30; 31) are
distributed at different physical areas and each one is connected to the first and second Switch
Fabric via a particular SCAL element so that each Switch core (15, 25) receives the sequence
of cells coming from any Port adapter and conversely any Port adapter may receive data from
any one of said first or second switch core. There are arranged means (15, 100) for assigning
a particular Switch core to any Port adapter for the normal traffic of cells and for reserving
the other switch core to Backup or maintenance traffic situations. To achieve this each switch
core is fitted with a masking mechanism which uses the value loaded into a Mask register for
altering the bitmap value which is normally used inside the switch core for controlling the
routing process. Since the Mask registers in the two switch cores are loaded with
complementary values, this permits a perfect distribution of the cells via one and only one
SCAL Xmit element towards any Port Adapter. Preferably the Mask mechanism can be
controlled by a special control field located into the cell, or when maintenance of backup
conditions are planned.
