Abstract: 1,070,394. Thermionic cathode tubes. COMPAGNIE FRANCAISE THOMSON HOUSTON-HOTCHKISS BRANDT. July 10, 1964 [July 19, 1963], No. 28599/64. Heading H1D. An electron tube comprises electrodes 1, 2, 3, 4, a multi-section tube envelope including at least a pair of adjacent annular sections 16, 123, metallic annular parts 17, 11 at adjacent ends of sections 16, 123, one part 11 being electrically connected to one electrode 3, a toroidal contact member 22 in the form of a compressible helical coil of conductive wire formed into a ring, interposed between parts 17, 11 to provide a low-resistance electric path from one part to the other, and a circumferential metallic seal 19. As shown, the tube is made in three preassembled sub-assemblies. The first comprises thoriated tungsten wire mesh cathode 1 connected by stem 30 to disc 31 and by sleeve 32 to sleeve 33, control grid 2 and screen grid 3 both in the form of molybdenum cylinders slotted at 5 and connected respectively to sleeves 10 and 11, together with ceramic annular spacers 121, 122, 123. Parts 31, 33, 10, 11 may be of ironnickel-cobalt alloy. The second sub-assembly comprises ceramic sleeve 16 and iron-nickelcobalt alloy rings 17, 18. The third subassembly comprises copper anode 4 surrounded by radiator fins 6 and with exhaust tube 7, soft iron flange 13 and iron-nickel-cobalt alloy member 14. The three sub-assemblies are welded together at seams 19, 20 and can be readily disassembled by cutting through seams 19, 20. Toroidal contact member 21 lies between anode 4 and element 18 and short-circuits the electric path through 13, 14 and weld 15. Members 21, 22 may be of gold plated tungsten wire. Tantalum foil strips 23 help short-circuit the join between cylinders 3 and 11.

Title: A connecting device between two plastic material sheets
Inventor: HUGUES GILBERT
IPC: A44B99/00
Filed: 1986-11-04
Abstract: A reclosable extruded plastic fastener for joining sheet material such as walls of bags, and method of making the same. The fastener comprises a grooved female profile and a complementary hook-headed male profile, and a stabilizing structure especially advantageous when pressing the profiles together into closed fastener assembly. The female profile has a generally square base with at least one stop shoulder to minimize tipping of the female profile about a thin, thermal bridge minimizing, heat transfer limiting stem. The hooked jaw arms of the female profile may have various geometric shapes. The male profile has an interhooking barb which interengages with the hooked jaws of the female profile. Stabilizing ribs are spaced from the head, but the rib at the inner side of the head is closer to the head than at the other or outer side, so that there is a desirable differential fastener separating relationship retaining the fastener efficiently with greater hold against opening due to internal bag forces.

Patent CH-624536-B (CH)
Inventor: BESSON RENE
IPC: G04C3/00
Filed: 1978-11-24
Abstract: An electronic watch comprises a stepping motor 6 for driving a mechanism for displaying the time information, a quartz crystal controlled oscillator 1, a frequency divider 2 with an adjustable division ratio, a circuit 7 for adjusting the division ratio eg by suppressing a number of pulses from the oscillator to the divider, a memory 8 containing data corresponding to the number of the pulses to be suppressed in each adjusting, cycle and a logic circuit 10 which, in response to an interrogation signal, (switch 9) produces a measuring signal at the output of gate 19 which is supplied to the coil of the stepping motor and which comprises a series of pulse trains whose distribution is representative of the division factor and the frequency of the oscillator and whose duration is sufficiently short so as not to cause the motor to rotate and sufficiently long to cause a magnetic stray field from the motor which can be detected by an external apparatus for measuring therefrom the rate of the watch. The interrogation signal upon closure of switch 9 causes the divider to divide with its unadjusted value. A gate 11 is enabled by 1 Hz pulses at 11a to pass trains of 256 Hz pulses in alternate half quartz-second intervals. The pulses pass through the gate 19 until their number, counted by counter 17, equals the adjustment number eg 5 held in memory 8. The interrogation signal also acts on switch circuit 4 to disconnect the motor control inputs at 4a 4b of circuit 5 from the divider 2, and apply the measuring signal pulses at input 4e from the gate 19 instead. In the embodiment described, a "quartz-second" is shorter than a normal second, the watch crystal frequency being higher than a nominal frequency, alternatively the measuring signal may be transmitted acoustically. The external measuring apparatus is described in App No. 79/36415. <IMAGE>
