Abstract: L'invention porte sur un procédé amélioré de production d'une couche mince d'épaisseur extrêmement uniforme pouvant servir de prérevêtement de la surface ondulée d'un substrat. A cet effet on forme sur le substrat une couche de travail plus épaisse que la couche finale requise, puis on détermine (en X et Y), par ellipsométrie, interférométrie laser, diffraction de rayons X ou autres moyens connus l'épaisseur de la couche de travail dans les différentes parties de la surface, et on introduit la carte des épaisseurs superflues à éliminer de la surface libre de la couches de travail dans le système de commande de l'appareil magnétorhéologique de finition. La couche de travail ayant été placée sur le support de la pièce à traiter de l'appareil et correctement référencée par rapport à la machine, cette dernière élimine le matériau superflu par finition magnétorhéologique selon les instructions du système de commande, ce qui laisse une couche résiduelle d'épaisseur nominale extrêmement uniforme et dont la surface présente un haut degré d'intégrité.

Abstract: A fluid filled cartridge having a fixed needle and a piston assembly for expression of its contents is mounted inside an applicator. In order to extend the needle from the body prior to cartridge contents expression and without premature leakage of fluid therefrom, an actuator is mounted in the body to drive the cartridge forwards. This is accomplished by co-operating driving and driven parts of the actuator and the cartridge (or any carrier it may have) which are decoupled by release formations in the applicator body after the cartridge has been moved sufficiently to extend the needle. The applicator also includes provision for automatic needle retraction after cartridge contents expression. A separate inventive feature is the deformability of the piston so that force transmission to the trigger means to initiate needle retraction only occurs upon full content expression when the piston has "bottomed out" within the cartridge.

Abstract: The present invention relates to ballistic protection for use in personal equipment or in vehicles of various types such as cars, helicopters and boats or for use in permanent or temporary protection of various types in buildings or other fixed or mobile installations. The ballistic protection according to the present invention can be employed as protection against various kinds of low or high-velocity projectiles in addition to which it will be capable of offering protection against splinters and various kinds of fragments which could other wise injure people or damage vehicles or installations if they had the opportunity of penetrating right through an external protective layer. The ballistic protection according to the present invention can further be combined with a drinking water reservoir since an essential part of the protection is a liquid container. The drinking water supply, for example, for a soldier is thereby improved both with regard to available volume and position/carrying capacity.

Abstract: A method for supporting an encoding of an audio signal is shown, wherein at least a first and a second coder mode are available for encoding a section of the audio signal. The first coder mode enables a coding based on two different coding models. A selection of a coding model is enabled by a selection rule which is based on signal characteristics which have been determined for a certain analysis window. In order to avoid a misclassification of a section after a switch to the first coder mode, it is proposed that the selection rule is activated only when sufficient sections for the analysis window have been received. The invention relates equally to a module in which this method is implemented, to a device and a system comprising such a module and to a software program product including a software code for realizing the proposed method.
