Abstract: This procedure refers to the incorporation of granules of cork or similar substances into polyurethane products. The polyurethane components and the cork (or similar) granules are introduced simultaneously into a suitable mixing chamber (26), the granules being suitably dosed by variable speed programmable screw conveyors (or otherwise, for example pneumatic feeds, mechanical pistons, etc.). The conglomerate as above is introduced, while still in the early stages of reaction, into fixed or moveable moulds (40) or dies by gravity (with the mould open), or by injection (with the mould closed), and completes its reaction there, forming the product in times which vary according to the characteristics of the mixture used and the shape of the article produced. The moulds or dies are preferably kept at a temperature of about 50 DEG C, though this is not critical since this factor also varies widely according to the polyurethanes used and the pieces being produced.

Abstract: This invention is for a catalyst system comprising a neutral metallocene compound, an aluminum alkyl and a Lewis acid. The Lewis acid must be of sufficient acidity to ionize a neutral metallocene compound to form a cationic metallocene catalyst. The ligands of the Lewis acid should not be reactive with the metallocene cation. Any metallocene catalyst compound having two cyclopentadienyl rings attached to a transition metal would be useful in this invention. The invention is also for the process of using the catalyst system in polymerization of olefins. The metallocene is contacted with the Lewis acid. The aluminum alkyl is contacted with the olefin. The two mixtures are contacted with each other under polymerization conditions.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an ultrasonic measuring probe for hot environments for the contactless testing of components in a hot liquid, especially for measuring the wall thickness of vessels containing liquid zinc at approx. 450 DEG C, having a housing (1) which can be immersed in the liquid and into which a piezoelement (7) is coupled in terms of sound engineering, a damping element (11) and a diaphragm (2) adjoining the liquid. This ultrasonic measuring probe for hot environments, which can be immersed completely in the liquid, must manage without cooling, that is to say consist of thermostable materials. For this reason, one soft glass layer each is proposed during measurement between the damping element (11), piezoelement (7) and diaphragm (2). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A collapsible roadway impact attenuator (10, 100) includes an array of spaced parallel support elements (18, 116) arranged to move axially when the attenuator (10, 100) is struck by impacting vehicle. Elastomeric energy absorbing sheets (50, 114) are rigidly secured between adjacent support elements (18, 116) so as to extend axially and horizontally. When the attenuator (10, 100) is struck axially by a vehicle, the support elements (18, 116) move towards one another and the energy absorbing sheets (50, 114) form at least three inflections (58a, 58b, 58c, 118), thereby enhancing energy absorbing efficiency of the attenuator (10, 100). Tethers (112) can be mounted between overlying elastomeric sheets (114) to increase the number of inflections (118) and the energy efficiency of the attenuator (110). <IMAGE>

Abstract: A tape cassette has one or more manually settable slider elements that are detected to prevent erroneous erasure of information recorded on the cassette. The or each slider (50) slides in a through hole (31) in the cassette case (2, 3) and includes stops (53a, 53b) that limit the travel of the slider element (50) by co-operating with protrusions or shoulders that are formed by the respective half cases (2, 3) making up the cassette case. The slider element (50) also includes a click-stop protrusion (51) that co-operates with a protrusion (32) in the through hole (31) that is formed in only one of the two half-cases (2, 3). The slider element (50) further includes a through slot (55) that permits deformation of the slider element (50) as the click-stop protrusion (51) goes over the protrusion (32) in the through-hole (31), thereby requiring less force to move the element. The stops (53a, 53b) can be formed by two spaced apart protrusions that also permit deformation of the slide element as the click-stop protrusion (51) travels past the protrusion (32) in the through-hole (31). <IMAGE>

Abstract: On applique un revêtement sur la surface de diamètre extérieur d'une bague utilisée pour écrouire dans le trou d'une pièce d'usinage. La bague comportant le revêtement est positionnée et fixée axialement par rapport au trou, puis elle est dilatée à l'aide d'un mandrin extensible, le revêtement situé sur la surface de diamètre extérieur de la bague venant au contact des parois du trou et le trou étant écroui. Le revêtement réduit l'usure du joint écroui, augmentant ainsi la résistance à la fatigue du joint. La bague comportant le revêtement peut être facilement retirée, et ensuite remplacée par enlèvement de l'ancienne bague puisque le revêtement permet une marge d'erreur d'usinage, de manière à protéger les parois du trou.

Abstract: Mécanisme d'autofocalisation par les contrastes pour une caméra photographique commandant automatiquement le déplacement d'un objectif (10) d'imagerie de façon que l'image d'un sujet (32) soit rapidement focalisée sur le plan récepteur (24) d'images de l'objectif en réponse à des mesures de contrastes successives prises dans des conditions différentes qui produisent des profondeurs de champ différentes. Le changement de la profondeur de champ peut être effectué en modifiant le réglage de l'ouverture pour des mesures de contrastes successives. Sur la base de la différence de contraste pour les deux mesures, le mécanisme calcule le degré de défocalisation de l'objectif. Ces calculs sont utilisés pour définir le déplacement de l'objectif dans une nouvelle position qui devrait correspondre ou presque à une position de contraste de pointe. Si dans la nouvelle position, un nouvel affinage est nécessaire, un sous-programme empirique est mis en ÷uvre pour déterminer dans quelle direction l'objectif devrait être déplacé pour être focalisé. De plus, durant les mesures de contrastes, le mécanisme calcule l'ampleur de déplacement de l'objectif dans la bonne direction et l'objectif est déplacé vers ce qui devrait être un condition focalisée. Pour l'adaptation à des scènes comportant de faibles contraste, une séquence de mesures de position défectueuse auxiliaire peut être mise en ÷uvre pour déterminer quand le foyer a été atteint ou quand il est impossible de l'atteindre. Pour chaque ensemble de mesures de contrastes, une valeur de différence (b') de cercle de flou, représentative de la différence des contrastes, est comparée avec des seuils pour déterminer dans quelle direction l'objectif devrait être déplacé.
