Abstract: L'invention concerne une pompe à pistons radiaux pour assurer l'alimentation en carburant sous haute pression dans des systèmes d'injection de carburant de moteurs à combustion interne, notamment pour système d'injection par accumulation de pression. Cette pompe comprend un arbre d'entrée (4) logé dans un carter (2) de pompe, qui est de structure excentrique ou qui présente des surélévations de type came dans le sens périphérique. Cette pompe comprend en outre de préférence plusieurs pistons (12) disposés dans le sens radial par rapport à l'arbre d'entrée (4), chacun dans une chambre du cylindre (18) et qui peuvent effectuer un mouvement de va-et-vient dans le sens radial, chacun dans la chambre du cylindre (18) correspondante, lorsque l'arbre d'entrée (4) tourne. Il a été démontré dans le cadre de cette invention, que la jupe de piston avec laquelle l'arbre d'entrée est en contact, a été endommagée en cours de fonctionnement. L'invention vise de ce fait à mettre au point une pompe à pistons radiaux permettant d'éviter toute altération de la jupe de piston. A cet effet, il est prévu de placer dans chaque cas entre les pistons (12) et l'arbre d'entrée (4), un dispositif d'absorption des forces transversales (9). Cette solution présente l'avantage que les pistons ne sont sollicités que par des forces s'exerçant dans le sens longitudinal. Ce qui signifie que pratiquement aucun moment ne s'exerce sur les pistons.

Abstract: The present invention can be used in the suspension of vehicles for automatically modifying the resistance characteristics of a damper
according to the amplitude of the defects on a road layout. This method involves modifying the flow section of a channel connecting
the chambers of the damper according to the pressure difference between said chambers, wherein the movement of the damper piston is
converted into a displacement of a damper part that influences the dimensions of the flow section of said channel. This method can be
realised using various types of dampers, e.g. using a mobile flap mounted on the piston and co-operating with an helical guide or using a
mobile bearing co-operating with a helical guide and connected to the piston through another helical guide.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method for
preventing the decrease of the efficiency of heat
transfer, caused by frost formation, in a precooler
of an air breathing engine. In the precooler, the
heat exchanger tube (2) is provided. Into the heat
exchanger tube (2), liquid hydrogen (12) serving as
a coolant is supplied. The main air flow (11) is sent
to the precooler via the intake duct (3), and the main
air flow (11) which is cooled down there, is then sent
to a compressor of the air breathing engine. Via the
nozzle (4) provided in the middle of the intake duct
(3), ethanol (13) is mixed into the main air flow (11).
Ethanol (13) is carried into the precooler, and
condenses together with the water vapor on the surface
of the heat exchanger tube (2). A frost layer thus
formed has less cavities and low thermal resistance as
compared to that formed when the water vapor condenses
solely. Therefore, the decrease of the performance
of the heat exchanger, which is caused by the frost
formation, can be prevented.

A slave unit (E) produces at least one output variable (Q,NQ). One input of logic gate (3) is connected directly to receive the intermediate variable (M), and one input of logic gate (4) is connected via an inverter (5) to receive a complement (I) of the variable (M). The intermediate variables (X,Y) are mutually independent. In the preferred embodiment, each unit, master, transfer, and slave (M,T,E), contains two NAND gates. In the second embodiment the slave unit contains a NAND and a NOR gates, and two additional inverters. In the third embodiment the master unit contains a NAND and a NOR gates, and an additional inverter in one feedback loop.

Abstract: It has been determined that allergens, which are characterized by both humoral (IgE) and cellular (T cell) binding sites, can be modified to be less allergenic by modifying the IgE binding sites. The IgE binding sites can be converted to non-IgE binding sites by masking the site with a compound that prevents IgE binding or by altering as little as a single amino acid within the protein, most typically a hydrophobic residue towards the center of the IgE binding epitope, to eliminate IgE binding. The method allows the protein to be altered as minimally as possible, other than within the IgE-binding sites, while retaining the ability of the protein to activate T cells, and, in some embodiments by not significantly altering or decreasing IgG binding capacity. The examples use peanut allergens to demonstrate alteration of IgE binding sites. The critical amino acids within each of the IgE binding epitopes of the peanut protein that are important to immunoglobulin binding have been determined. Substitution of even a single amino acid within each of the epitopes led to loss of IgE binding. Although the epitopes shared no common amino acid sequence motif, the hydrophobic residues located in the center of the epitope appeared to be most critical to IgE binding.
