Abstract: It has a roller (2) that carries a tape (3) that includes a plurality of labels (4) that run along a guide-wedge (5) that produces a change in direction that produces the detachment of the label (4). It is characterised in that a head (10) has been foreseen connected to a suction circuit (12) and to blower means (13, 15), whose operation is governed by a pneumatic distributor (16), that likewise governs the working of the suction circuit (12), so that when the label (4) has been detached, its suction is produced, and it is retained at the head (10), after which the label is blown (4), to project it energetically over the surface of the product (18) on which it is adhered by the action of the impulsion. The head (10) has a homogeneously multiperforated surface (19) that facilitates the homogeneous impulsion of the label (4). <IMAGE>

Abstract: This invention is mainly concerned with a vacuum refuse collection system in which refuse chutes (CH) are connected to a transport pipe system through respective discharge valves (DV), and in which communication between a refuse chute and the transport pipe system is established by opening the discharge valve of the refuse chute. The idea according to the invention is to partition discharge valves, and hence corresponding refuse chutes, into groups (G1-G5) and perform controlled emptying of refuse by opening discharge valves on a group basis. More particularly, the control system selects one group at a time for opening of discharge valves within the selected group. In this way, the utilization of the available resources in a vacuum refuse collection system is substantially improved, thus resulting in an efficient and reliable system. The above solution has turned out to be particularly efficient for larger systems, especially in combination with level-controlled emptying.

Abstract: A valve installed at the inlet of a thermostatic mixing device for automatically stabilizing the operation of the thermostatic device by maintaining the pressure within the thermostatic mixing device close to the water supply pressure, thereby making the thermostatic device response to small pressure changes while maintaining the fluid flow through the device. The valve comprises a tubular body inserted within the water supply line, a holding seat within the tubular body, a cursor that moves within the valve body with respect to the seat, the cursor moving between a first position where the seat is partially occluded and a second position where the seat is substantially clear. The cursor is subjected to the pressure existing inside the thermostatic mixing device, and a spring positioned with the valve body that acts upon the cursor to urge the cursor towards the first cursor position.

On règle individuellement une préférence de langage de chaque terminal (122), soit par la tête de réseau par l'intermédiaire de données d'initialisation, soit localement au moyen de la sélection effectuée par l'utilisateur du terminal parmi des langages disponibles. On peut régler les terminaux d'un même emplacement géographique afin qu'il présente une préférence de langage différent en fonction des besoins du ménage. Au niveau de la tête de réseau (110), on compose des messages d'éléments dans plusieurs langages différents et on crée des identificateurs de langage correspondants (215, 225, 235). On combine ces messages d'éléments en un seul message composite (250) qu'on peut mémoriser, programmer, adresser ou traiter sous forme d'entité unique. Ce message composite est diffusé (130) vers les terminaux (180), de manière à permettre la récupération de l'un des messages d'éléments en fonction de la préférence de langage du terminal. On sélectionne des données correspondantes (340) en mode point afin de restituer le message sous forme de pixels dans le but de l'afficher (360). Le message composite peut être adressé à des terminaux spécifiques ou à la totalité des terminaux selon son contenu. Ces messages d'éléments peuvent, éventuellement, comprendre des données en mode point pouvant être restituées directement sur l'écran sans qu'il soit nécessaire de convertir des mots codés correspondant à des caractères de texte en données en mode.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for generating steam using a waste incinerator, wherein steam (A) is formed from water in a heat exchanger by heating same with flue gases from a waste incinerator and is then fed to a steam drum, conducting flue gases in a heat exchanger along bundles of pipes through which the steam (A) from the steam drum is fed in order to create steam (B) at a temperature of at least 450 DEG C and at a pressure of at least 70 bars, and wherein the steam (B) is fed to the first turbine stage. After leaving one stage of the turbine, the steam is reheated in a heat exchanger with the aid of steam (A') which comes from the steam drum so as to create steam (D) that is fed to at least one successive turbine stage. By feeding the steam to be reheated from the steam drum, there is an extra degree of freedom in the dimensioning of the boiler. It is possible to realise a net efficiency of more than 30% in combination with a second and third economiser. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The method for determining the order of delay cells in a chain of N cells includes: following the first loop comprising the steps (116,...128) for the values of j varying from 1 to N, where each value corresponds to a total delay equal to j times an elementary delay (Te) of a cell; following the second loop comprising the steps (118,...127) for the values of j varying from 1 to N, where each value corresponds to a rank of cell in the chain, for computing an error (a(j,i)) present in the output delay of the cell of rank i with respect to an ideal delay which is equipartitioned total delay of the chain; computing the first value of the error before the instruction of a supplementary elementary delay of the cell of rank i; and computing the second value of the error if the first value is higher than a predetermined threshold after the instruction of a supplementary elementary delay of the cell of rank i. The method includes the use of the third loop comprising the steps (115,...136) which activates the first loop for each value of the predetermined threshold whose value varies from zero to N-1. The method includes the use of the fourth loop whose action verifies that the first value of error for the ranks k greater than the rank i does ot fall below a low value. The method comprises the steps (123,...,126) for computing, a minimum value (mini) and a maximum value (maxi) of error for a value of predetermined threshold, and a step (129) to edit the threshold, the minimum and maximum values of error, the determined order, and the error values obtained as the output of the first loop.
