Abstract: The boot comprises a foot section (1) surmounted by a leg section (2) equipped with a flexion regulator designed to reduce stresses on the lower leg at a certain amplitude. The regulator consists of a transmission element (6) and a damper (7) of a viscoelastic material, made in the shape of a thick block with two approximately parallel faces (17). The transmission arm extends from the top of the boot's leg section to the lower part of the foot section, to which it is attached by the damper. The damper is connected to the transmission arm and the boot by its two parallel faces (17), with its remaining faces completely free to allow the block to deform. The arm is in an approximate T-shape with its crosspiece at the top attached to the leg section of the boot in the centre and on either side of it.

Abstract: An atomized liquid dispenser, comprising a pump and a dispensing head mounted on the stem of the pump, the head defining a chamber communicating with the stem and housing a movable piston urged by a spring to close a discharge nozzle provided at one end of the chamber. From the head there extends a skirt in which cuts are provided which define a flexible tang engaging one end of said piston projecting from said chamber. From the inner surface of the tang there projects a cam which, when the pump is operated, interferes with the pump or with an element rigid with it, to cause the tang to flex outwards and axially entrain the piston, so withdrawing it from the discharge nozzle. <IMAGE>

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a process and apparatus for patterning a masked metal layer on a substrate (10) to form a layer of metal interconnects for an integrated circuit structure which removes metal etch residues, while inhibiting or eliminating erosion of the photoresist mask, by providing an amplitude modulation (50) of the RF bias power (32) supplied to the substrate support of the substrate being etched. The amplitude modulation (50) of the RF power (32) superimposes short pulses of RF power of sufficient magnitude (pulse height) and of sufficient duration (pulse width) to remove metal etch residues as they form during the etch process without, however, eroding the photoresist etch mask (14) during the etch process sufficiently to adversely impact the patterning of the metal layer. <IMAGE>   <IMAGE>

Abstract: The sleeper boot consists of an elastically deformable shell (1) to receive the sleeper (T). The shell is sloping inwards at the bottom and contains a sole (2) on which the sleeper rests. The lower part of the shell has recesses (10) in its inner wall which ensure a flexibility on compression even after the wall has been deformed as a result of hydrostatic pressure from the concrete bed (B). The boot's inner recesses are made in the wall to a height corresponding to the thickness of the sole plus the height (t) of a chamfered lower edge on the sleeper. At their lower ends, the recesses extend beneath the edge of the sole. In between the recesses the inner wall of the boot is made with a series of reinforcing ribs.

Abstract: Cette invention concerne un processeur pipeline dans lequel le décodeur peut absorber une partie d'une instruction et conserver cette partie dans des registres fantômes de sous-champs tout en extrayant le restant de l'instruction lors d'un cycle ou de cycles suivants. Chaque octet se trouvant dans une mémoire tampon de préextraction est marqué individuellement de manière à ce que le décodeur puisse effacer des octets individuels dans cette mémoire tampon afin de pouvoir effectuer une préextraction d'octets d'instruction supplémentaires avant que l'instruction courante ne soit complètement absorbée et décodée dans l'étage de décodage. Ce système permet d'obtenir une mémoire tampon d'une taille optimale qui est inférieure à la longueur d'instruction maximale possible, mais suffisamment importante pour contenir une copie complète d'une grande majorité d'instructions.

Abstract: A method for the exact setting down or taking up of cargo from aircraft is disclosed. When setting down persons or cargo from aircraft which has not landed, the problem arises of an exact setting down not being possible, or only with great difficulty, in particular under adverse weather conditions. The invention provides a method whereby exact and even "spot-on" setting down or taking up of a load is made possible, even if the ambient conditions do not allow the aircraft to be kept steady. With the spatial framework of ropes biased by the aircraft, the position of the load in space is clearly fixed. The load can thus be exactly lowered down to the ground or taken up from the ground, without it being necessary for the aircraft to be still. Here, the aircraft itself is located at an appropriately selected distance above the load. The invention can also be applied to transportation by airships to construction sites, to catastrophe regions, etc.

Abstract: A method for isothermic, isobaric chemical vapor infiltration (CVI) of refractory substances, especially of carbon (C) and silicon carbide (SiC), based on diffusion in a porous structure, whereby the pressure of the gas or partial pressure of an educt gas contained in the gas and the dwell time of the gas in the reaction zone are set at a given temperature in the reaction zone so that a deposition reaction occurs in the porous structure in the area of pressure or partial pressure of the saturation adsorption of the gaseous compounds forming the solid phase, saturation adsorption meaning that the deposition speed remains substantially constant at increased pressure of the gas or partial pressure of the educt gas. The reaction of the educt gas is limited in such a way that no more than 50% of the elements in the educt gas as it flows through the reaction zone are deposited as a solid phase in the porous structure.
