Title: Automobile door lock with a central locking system has a coupling between the emergency unlocking lever and a leg of the switch lever which can be disengaged in an emergency without loss of overall security
Inventor: WEYERSTALL BERND
IPC: E05B81/06
Filed: 1999-12-24
Abstract: The automobile door lock, with a central locking system, has an emergency unlocking lever (10) operated by the lock cylinder and pref. through a lock follower (9). The switch lever (7) is in two parts, with the first leg at the lever (7) and the second leg is formed by the emergency unlocking lever (10), to give a setting where the locking function is secured against theft. In the normal working setting, the emergency unlocking lever (10) is linked with the switch lever by a coupling, to form a unit which is operated by the follower (9). In an emergency, the coupling is disengaged by the follower (9), and the switch lever (7) can move independently of the emergency unlocking lever (10) and the lock drive (5).

Abstract: A method for controlling the flow of cigarettes from a process line into containers, sorting shafts etc. The cigarettes are loaded into the main container (10) by a gravity feed and fall into the separate compartments. The cigarettes fall onto mechanical guides (23) which are moved downwards to increase the volume of the compartments in a progressive manner, to the maximum value. This ensures a controlled loading of the compartments with no damage to the cigarettes. The filled compartments are transferred to a gravity fed loading station for the packing system.  An Independent claim is included for apparatus to implement the method.

Abstract: A ROM constituting a variable length coding
table of 2 picture element range is provided. A motion
vector within the range of 2 picture elements is given to
the ROM to provide a VLC code corresponding to the motion
vector within the range of 2 picture elements. In a
calculation circuit, assuming that the value of a motion
vector within the range of 4 picture elements is X, a
quotient Y and a remainder Z are obtained by the division
of X by 2. The quotient Y is supplied to the ROM whose
output is added the remainder Z at an additional circuit
to obtain a VLC code corresponding to the motion vector
lying within the range of 4 picture elements. This is
equivalent to the coding at the variable length coding for
four-picture element range. By sending a flag indicating
whether a motion vector range is 2 picture elements or 4
picture elements, the motion vector is correctly
reproduced from the VLC code. By the use of the single
table ROM, a motion vector within the range of 2 picture
elements and 4 picture elements can be coded to reduce the
load imposed on the hardware.

Abstract: A process for controllably forming silicon
nanostructures such as a silicon quantum wire array. A
silicon surface is sputtered by a uniform flow of
nitrogen molecular ions in an ultrahigh vacuum so as to
form a periodic wave-like relief in which the troughs
of said relief are level with the silicon-insulator
border of the SOI material. The ion energy, the ion
incidence angle to the surface of said material, the
temperature of the silicon layer, the formation depth
of the wave-like relief, the height of said wave-like
relief and the ion penetration range into silicon are
all determined on the basis of a selected wavelength of
the wave-like relief in the range 9 nm to 120 nm. A
silicon nitride mask having pendant edges is used to
define the area of the silicon surface on which the
array is formed. Impurities are removed from the
silicon surface within the mask window prior to
sputtering. For the purpose of forming a silicon
quantum wire array, the thickness of the SOI silicon
layer is selected to be greater than the sum of said
formation depth, said height and said ion penetration
range, the fabrication of the silicon wires being
controlled by a threshold value of a secondary ion
emission signal from the SOI insulator. The
nanostructure may be employed in optoelectronic and
nanoelectonic devices such as a FET.

Abstract: La réponse de mort cellulaire connue comme la réponse d'hypersensibilité (HR) est une caractéristique centrale de la résistance gène pour gène aux maladies des plantes. Les plantes se défendent également contre les pathogènes via des réponses de défense à large spectre multigéniquement contrôlées telles que celles modulées par l'acide salicylique. Le locus DND (Defense, No Death) d'Arabidopsis thaliana régule l'importance de la résistance des maladies à large spectre contre une vaste gamme de pathogènes viraux, bactériens, oomycètes et fongiques. Les plantes auxquelles il manque un exemplaire fonctionnel du gène DND1 ou DND2 présentent une déficience au niveau de la mort cellulaire par réponse d'hypersensibilité, mais font preuve d'une résistance gène pour gène efficace contre les maladies. Les plantes auxquelles il manque un exemplaire fonctionnel du gène DND1 ou DND2 présentent également un phénotype renforcé de résistance aux maladies à large spectre. Les produits géniques DND1 et DND2 sont identiques à des ADN complémentaires déjà connus, en l'occurrence, l'AtCNGC2 et l'AtCNGC1 qui codent les protéines à canal ionique protégé par un nucléotide apparemment cyclique. L'identification des gènes CNGC/DND comme régulateurs de la résistance aux maladies et à la mort cellulaire, et la disponibilité de l'information de séquence génique de CNGC/DND, offrent de nouvelles possibilités de lutte contre une grande variété de maladies de plantes.
