Abstract: The invention relates to a method for producing concrete panels that when assembled together replicate brick or masonry walls. The method involves applying a mask (5) to the surface (1) of an uncured concrete panel and pressing the mask into the concrete. The concrete is allowed to at least partially cure before the mask (5) is removed. Advantageously, the mask (5) includes an absorbent material to absorb water from the uncured concrete in which it comes into contact, thereby compacting the concrete in the contact areas (1c) and enhancing the embossed effect created on the concrete surface. The areas of uncured concrete exposed by the mask (1b) are coloured by the application of mortar dust or powder (7) to provide contrasting colouration between the exposed and covered areas, thereby imitating the brick and mortar colours of a conventional wall. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The technical field of the invention is that of pre-filled and disposable needleless syringes, used for intradermal, subcutaneous and intramuscular injections of liquid active principle for therapeutic use in human and veterinary medicine. The inventive syringes ( 1 ) are mainly characterized in that they function with a pyrotechnic charge ( 6 ) consisting of a mixture of powder with high burning rate and a powder with low burning rate. Indeed, the combustion of the powder with a high burning rate enables to communicate instantly, through a piston ( 3 ), a very high speed to the active principle ( 4 ), whereas the combustion of the powder with a low burning rate enables to maintain a threshold pressure level to proceed with the injection, so as to ensure that the active principle ( 4 ) penetrates through the skin. Thus, the injection is properly and homogeneously without any loss of active liquid ( 4 ).

Abstract: An apparatus for and method of controlling the cooling rate of a metallic melt in the production of a semi-solid slurry billet for use in a casting process. The apparatus comprises a thermal jacket including symmetrical halves, with each half having a rounded heat transfer surface extending between a pair of longitudinal edges. An actuator mechanism engages the heat transfer surfaces into intimate contact with a vessel containing the metallic melt to effectuate conductive heat transfer between the vessel and the thermal jacket, with the pairs of longitudinal edges of each halve being disposed in a generally opposite, spaced relationship. The thermal jacket includes a plurality of passageways adapted to carry cooling air for extracting heat from the metallic melt, and a plurality of electric heating elements for adding heat to the metallic melt. The cooling rate of the metallic melt is controlled within a range of about 0.1 degrees Celsius per second to about 10 degrees Celsius per second by regulating the flow of cooling air through the passageways and by regulating activation of the heating elements. The thermal jacket includes fluid manifolds disposed at opposite ends of the thermal jacket to distribute and direct the flow of cooling air, and a plurality of exhaust ports extending between each of the passageways to an exterior surface of the thermal jacket to discharge heat laden cooling air in a lateral direction.

Abstract: An apparatus and a method for reducing capacitive loading in a Flash memory X-decoder so as to accurately control the voltages as selected wordlines and block select lines are provided. A decoding structure separately applies a first boosted voltage to the wordline N-well region and a second boosted voltage to the selected wordline so as to reduce capacitive loading on the selected wordline due to heavy capacitive loading associated with the wordline N-well region. The decoding structure further applies a third boosted voltage to the select gate N-well region and a fourth boosted voltage to the block select line so as to reduce capacitive loading on the block select line due to heavy capacitive loading associated with the select gate N-well region. As a consequence, an accurate voltage can be created quickly at the selected wordline since its capacitive loading path is very small.

Abstract: In a switched circuit telephone network implementing an SS7 protocol with out-of-band signaling for call establishment, the specification discloses a proxy load balancer coupled between a signaling gateway and application server processes running application services. The proxy load balancer receives signaling messages from the signaling gateway directed to an application server process running an application service, and forwards that signaling message to one of two or more application server processes, each running the application service. In this way, additional application server processes may be installed in the system without reconfiguration or even knowledge of the signaling gateway. The proxy load balancer appears as a single application server process running an application service to the signaling gateway, and correspondingly appears as a signaling gateway to the two or more application server processes running application services downstream of the proxy load balancer. <IMAGE>
