Abstract: La présente invention concerne un système de recyclage d'eau utilisé dans une installation (10) du type à être reliée à une alimentation en eau et à présenter un orifice de déchargement d'eau (11) dans l'installation (10) et un drain (18) destiné à drainer l'eau de l'installation (10). Dans le système, le drain (18) est sélectivement en communication avec l'orifice de déchargement (11) de manière à renvoyer l'eau à l'orifice de déchargement (11) du drain (18) dans un état de recyclage du système. Ce système comporte un dispositif de commutation (27) servant à passer, selon le choix de l'utilisateur de l'installation (10), de l'état de recyclage d'eau à un état de non recyclage auquel l'eau est drainée de l'installation (10) à travers le drain (18) en vue d'être jetée. Ce dispositif de commutation (27) fonctionne à l'état de non recyclage pour permettre à l'eau qui s'écoule jusqu'au drain (18) d'être amenée à être jetée et à l'état de recyclage pour dévier l'eau qui s'écoule jusqu'au drain (18) en vue d'être déchargée à travers l'orifice de déchargement (11) et de diminuer ou d'arrêter l'écoulement d'eau allant jusqu'à l'orifice de déchargement (11) à partir de l'alimentation en eau.

Title: Procede et dispositif permettant la production de composes metalliques
Inventor: HAIDAR JAWAD
IPC: C01F7/58
Filed: 2004-07-05
Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé et un dispositif permettant la production d'alliages de titane et de composés et d'alliages intermétalliques titane-aluminium. Ce procédé consiste à partir d'un matériau précurseur contenant un sous-chlorure de titane (trichlorure ou dichlorure de titane), et à réduire le matériau précurseur avec de l'aluminium afin de produire des complexes ou des alliages intermétalliques titane-aluminium, et du chlorure d'aluminium lequel est évacué de la zone réactionnelle, afin de favoriser la réaction directe et la production de composés titane-aluminium. En prenant comme matériau de départ un précurseur à base de sous-chlorure de titane, on évite les problèmes associés à l'utilisation d'un titane métallique (dont la production est coûteuse) ou de tétrachlorure de titane (une réaction difficile à maîtriser), et on obtient des composés titane-aluminium sous forme de poudres dont la composition peut être définie sélectivement.

Title: Additive dispensing cartridge for an oil filter and oil filter incorporating same
Inventor: EILERS DEREK
IPC: C10M175/00
Filed: 2004-01-26
Abstract: An oil-conditioning filter, for use with an internal combustion engine, includes a mechanical filter element and a central additive cartridge, for gradually dispensing an oil additive over time. The additive cartridge has a beneficial oil-conditioning agent contained therein. The additive may be provided as a solid block within a storage chamber of the cartridge, or may be a plurality of pellets. Central placement of the cartridge allows for fluid filtration through the mechanical filter element before the additive is added thereto, reducing the likelihood that the additive will be filtered out prematurely upon its initial release. An additive cartridge for installation in an oil filter is also described, including a baffle portion and a storage chamber. Alternative exemplary embodiments of the additive cartridge may include a cylindrical shell, a basket which is operatively attached to an oil filter center tube, or a porous center tube.

Title: Spatial spreading in a multi-antenna communication system
Inventor: ZHENG LIZHONG
IPC: H04L1/06
Filed: 2004-12-15
Abstract: Spatial spreading is performed in a multi-antenna system to randomize an “effective” channel observed by a receiving entity for each transmitted data symbol block. For a MIMO system, at a transmitting entity, data is processed (e.g., encoded, interleaved, and modulated) to obtain ND data symbol blocks to be transmitted in NM transmission spans, where ND≥1 and NM>1. The ND blocks are partitioned into NM data symbol subblocks, one subblock for each transmission span. A steering matrix is selected (e.g., in a deterministic or pseudo-random manner from among a set of L steering matrices, where L>1) for each subblock. Each data symbol subblock is spatially processed with the steering matrix selected for that subblock to obtain transmit symbols, which are further processed and transmitted via NT transmit antennas in one transmission span. The ND data symbol blocks are thus spatially processed with NM steering matrices and observe an ensemble of channels.

Title: Preventing identity theft electronic communications
Inventor: BRANDT WILLIAM M
IPC: H04L29/06
Filed: 2004-11-05
Abstract: Preventing identity theft in electronic communications sequences (180) involves generating a consumer identifier (126) for an individual (92) from a trusted service (82), including a primary key (128), a unique identifier (130), and a consumer-defined sequence (132). The consumer-defined sequence (132) allows the individual (92) to control use of the consumer identifier (126) by third parties, such as business entities (112). The method and system further allows business entities (114) to verify use of the consumer identifier (126) by first initiating a verification process (196) via a secure connection (110). Verification includes comparing (200) the consumer identifier (126) with a pre-determined set of database records (86, 88, and 90). If the requesting business (108) has registered with the trusted service (82), the invention presents a positive or negative confirmation (208) to the requesting business (108) according to the inquiry (204). Then, the invention permits confirming (210) the requested information relating to the individual (92) via the secure connection (98, 102, 106), conditioned upon the requested information having previously been authorized by the individual for presenting to the requesting business (108).
