Abstract: A device (10) designed to be placed between a gate (12) and a powered actuator (16) to permit release on command and free movement of the gate with respect to the actuator. The device comprises a first plate (11) designed to be fastened to the gate and a second plate (17) designed to be connected kinetically to the actuator. A first and a second plate are supported to rotate freely around a common rotation axis (13) designed to coincide with the gate rotation axis. Means of bolt engagement (18) are arranged to engage between them a first and a second plate to make them integral. Two operating levers (19,20) each arranged on one side of the device and having cam surfaces (31,32) to cause independent backing of the bolt (24) of the engagement means (18) against the thrust of elastic means (25) to move it towards a disengagement position upon movement of one of the two operating levers from a rest position to an operating position. Locks (22,23) can be provided to prevent inappropriate operation of the levers. <IMAGE>

Abstract: La présente invention concerne un procédé selon lequel on utilise la reconnaissance de l'iris pour déterminer si une personne est autorisée à franchir un contrôle de sécurité. On identifie d'abord la personne en comparant un code iridien capturé et numérisé avec les codes iridiens de personnes autorisées stockés dans une base de données. On compare alors le code iridien de la personne identifiée avec tous les codes iridiens déjà enregistrés pour cette personne. Si une correspondance exacte apparaît, le code iridien identifié est considéré comme irrégulier étant donné que la probabilité d'obtenir une correspondance exacte est significativement peu élevée. En conséquence, on requiert des informations d'identification supplémentaires ou l'on refuse l'accès aux ressources ou aux systèmes à la personne concernée.

Abstract: A headbox for a paper machine which mixes suspension and additives to achieve a selected basis weight cross direction profile and fiber orientation cross direction profile in paper produced from the machine. The headbox has sections across its width. Each section is supplied with a first stream QH of one suspension component, a second stream QL of a second suspension component. A valve regulates the total suspension flow QM as well as the ratio between the first and second streams. An additive stream Qad for each section communicates into the combined suspension flow. A valve regulates the additive stream for achieving the selected profiles. Various places along the suspension flow path are indicated as inlets for the additive stream. The headbox has a microturbulence generator for generating turbulence in the suspension passing through it. There may be lamellae within the headbox which somewhat separate the entry flow into the headbox. That version of the headbox has separated entrance flows with different additives at different layers. The invention further concerns a method of use of the headbox which results from the structure described above. <IMAGE>

Each mount (22) includes a respective joint (24) having at least two degrees of freedom to allow the associated polishing pad (28) to articulate with respect to the support (12) to conform to the wafer. Each mount (22) is substantially rigid in a direction perpendicular to the pad (28) toward the pad support (12), and in some cases the adjacent mounts (22) are completely isolated from one another. A magnet is used to bias the polishing pad (28) against the wafer. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A surgical handpiece (10) is described having at least an irrigation lumen (30, 52) mounted to the body (12). Another lumen (48) is used for aspiration and one irrigation lumen (30) is used to inject heated surgical fluid for liquefying a cataractous lens. A portion of the irrigation lumen (30) is enlarged to form a pumping chamber (42). The pumping chamber works by boiling a small volume of the surgical fluid. As the fluid boils, it expands rapidly, thereby propelling the liquid downstream of the pumping chamber out of the irrigation lumen (30). The pumping chamber may use a pair of electrodes (45, 47) and one of the electrodes may contain a countersink (100). A second irrigation lumen (52, 235) may supply cool surgical fluid to the operative site. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A method and device for triggering ventilatory support to assist the patient's respiration. Myoelectrical activity of a patient's respiratory-related muscle is sensed to detect respiratory effort, and to produce a myoelectrical signal representative of the sensed muscle myoelectrical activity. Respiratory flow and pressure can also be measured to produce respective respiratory pressure and respiratory flow signals. A logic trigger circuit triggers ventilatory support in relation to the myoelectrical signal, respiratory flow signal and/or respiratory pressure signal to assist respiration of the patient. The amplitude of the myolectrical signal is compared to a given threshold, and ventilatory support is triggered when the amplitude of the myoelectrical signal is higher than this threshold. Increment of myoelectrical signal amplitude can also be detected to trigger ventilatory support, while decrement of the myoelectrical signal amplitude can be detected to request non-triggering of the ventilatory support.

Abstract: A method for reducing call dropping rates in a multi-beam communication system. The multi-beam communication system includes a user terminal, a gateway, and a plurality of beam sources, where each beam source projects a plurality of beams, and where a communication link between the user terminal and the gateway is established on one or more beams. The method according to the present invention relies on a messaging protocol between the gateway and the user terminal. Based on messages sent from the user terminal to the gateway, preferably on a preselected periodic basis, the gateway can determine the more desirable beam(s) for transmitting data or information to the user terminal. The messages sent from the user terminal to the gateway contain values representing beam strengths as measured at the user terminal. The gateway uses the user terminal measured beam strengths to select the beams that should be used for transmitting data or information to the user terminal. The beams that should be used are the beams that if used will decrease the call dropping rates and provide a desired level of beam source diversity.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de production permettant de modifier le sens de déroulement de nappes (W, W1) délivrées latéralement et successivement par un poste de délivrance (1) pour former un groupe de nappes (WG) dans lequel les surfaces frontales de nappes (W) adjacentes sont séparées par une distance identique (a) et les axes longitudinaux (LA) des nappes (W) sont alignés. Pour produire une nappe (W), il est parfois nécessaire dans la pratique de placer la machine de préparation par rapport au groupe de peigneuses à utiliser de telle façon que la nappe cédée par la machine de préparation présente, dans le sens de déroulement de production, un autre sens de déroulement que celui nécessaire dans la peigneuse suivante. Ainsi, il est indispensable, de tourner les nappes (par exemple de 90° ou 180°), la division d'un groupe de nappes devant être conservé. Selon l'invention, les nappes (W) délivrées par le poste de délivrance (1) sont progressivement déplacées transversalement à son sens de délivrance, au-dessus d'une zone de réception (41, 42) d'un dispositif tournant (30). Ce dispositif permet de tourner les nappes dans un plan dans lequel se situe l'axe longitudinal (LA) de la nappe (W) et la nappe est ensuite enlevé de la zone de réception (42) dans son sens longitudinal (LA).
