Abstract: The method for inspecting an integrated circuit comprising a plurality of sub-circuits includes the determination of the supply current into at least one of the sub-circuits. This supply current is determined, while the other sub-circuits are operational, by measuring the voltage over a segment of the supply line through which this supply current flows. This supply line contains no additional components to facilitate the measuring of the voltage.

IPC: A24D1/00

Abstract: A non-smokable tobacco product comprises a rod-shaped element of cigarette tobacco with a filter element at one end and both enclosed by a tubular wrapper. The product is rendered unsmokable by a perforation extending through the wrapper of the tobacco or the filter element so that when air is drawn through the filter substantially all of the air enters through those perforations, there being insufficient air flow through the tip end to propagate normal cigarette combustion of the tobacco at that location or to permit any appreciable amount of smoke reaching the smoker's mouth. The product is rendered smokable by the user covering the perforated region of the wrapper by means of a strip, a sliding band, or a ring which blocks air flow through the perforations and thus converts the product into a self-made cigarette that can be smoked in the manner of a regular cigarette.

Title: Procede d'accentuation des caracteristiques de dissolution de complements alimentaires relativement insolubles et produits incorporant ces complements
Inventor: GOLDMAN ROBERT
IPC: A23L1/308
Filed: 1997-07-24
Abstract: Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé d'accentuation des caractéristiques de dissolution de compléments alimentaires relativement insolubles. Ledit procédé consiste à utiliser au moins un complément alimentaire relativement insoluble dans l'eau, à dissoudre ledit complément alimentaire avec un agent de solubilisation, et à incorpore un alcool polyhydrique comestible dans le complément alimentaire solubilisé de façon à obtenir une composition liquide de complément alimentaire susceptible de se dissoudre spontanément dans le tractus gastro-intestinal sous l'action de l'agitation minimum se produisant normalement en raison de l'effet péristaltique. On peut facilement administrer ladite composition liquide de complément alimentaire en l'incorporant à une capsule de gélatine. L'invention se rapporte également à une capsule de gélatine contenant un complément alimentaire liquide. Ladite capsule de gélatine se dissout rapidement dans le tractus digestif et le complément alimentaire possède une assimilabilité accrue en comparaison des capsules de gélatines fabriquées selon des procédés conformes à l'état antérieur de la technique.

IPC: C25B9/17
Filed: 1997-09-12
Abstract: Disclosed is an electrochemical installation, the
application of which is the electrochemical processing of
aqueous solutions and the production of gases. The invention
owes its simplicity of structure to the creation of a spiral
motion of electrolytes within the electrode chambers, by
means of the presence of inclined canals and spiral-shaped
guiding elements in the bushings. The installation creates a
new property, consisting in the prolonged action of the
electrolysis process on the aqueous solutions being treated.
During operation of the installation, the initial solution passes
into the pipes (4, 5) of the lower bushing (3), where the
presence of the spiral-shaped guiding elements (13, 15)
generates the spiral motion of the electrolytes, said motion
being maintained in the electrode chambers (30, 29). At the
end of the electrochemical process, the resultant solutions and
gases pass into the upper bushing (7) where, under the effect
of the spiral motion, they are drawn off from the
corresponding chambers through outlet pipes (9, 8).

Abstract: The lid has a cap part (1) which can be fastened to a container in order to seal an outlet opening, and which has a closure element (13) which can be moved between positions which open and close a channel opening (10). The cap part has a chamber (19) which is connected to the channel opening, and which can be closed by a moving lid part (20). The chamber has a part volume (A) which corresponds to a defined part of the container volume, and the motion of the lid part between a position in which it closes the chamber from the external surroundings, and a position in which the interior of the chamber is connected to the latter, is linked to the motion of the closure element. The latter is moved between open and closed positions so that it opens the connection between the channel and outlet openings when the lid is closed, and vice-versa.

Abstract: A noise absorbing device for a vacuum cleaner has a suction motor (10)
installed in a front casing (20). The front casing has a first main body (21) with a
first suction opening (23) connected to the suction motor. An opposite side face
of the first main body (21) is open. A lower chamber (26) communicates with the
first main body by a penetrating hole (25). An upper chamber (27) is installed on
an upper part of the first main body (21). The lower chamber and the upper
chamber (26) communicate with each other by way of a rear casing (30) which
covers the front casing. An air guider (40) is installed inside the front casing. The
air guider (40) has a open side face, an opposite, closed side face closed with a
closing plate (43). A top penetrating hole (45) extends through a top surface of
the second main body. Air sucked into the suction motor (10) is exhausted to
the inside of the air guider (40). The air is guided to the outside of the air guider
by way of the top penetrating hole (45), and is then guided along the outer
surface of the cylindrical body of the air guider, and into the lower chamber (26)
through the penetrating hole (25). The air flows into the upper chamber (27)
through the air flow path formed by the rear casing (30), and is exhausted to the
outside of the vacuum cleaner through a filter receiving part (28). The tortuous
nature of the air exhaust path increases its length, and hence the noise
absorbence thereof, particularly if it is provided with noise absorbing material.
The provisions of a filter in the air exhaust path enhances the efficiency of the
vacuum cleaner.

Title: Method for recognizing and damping wheel and drive train vibrations
Inventor: JANSSEN GUNNAR
IPC: G01H1/00
Filed: 1998-02-04
Abstract: The invention relates to a method for recognizing critical drive train vibrations requiring countermeasures during an ABS-controlled brake manoeuver, wherein the speed characteristic of the wheels being driven is analyzed and vibrations with a frequency typical for drive train vibrations (fMin∫=∫fMax) are detected. When vibrations of this frequency occur, the duration of the vibration process for each individual wheel is detected or alternatively the number of successive vibrations or semi-vibrations is counted. When a pre-set number is reached, vibration recognition is indicated (BY_DRIVE_REC=1) if at that time the vehicle acceleration is above a set limit value and there has not yet been vibration recognition on the other wheel being driven. A special control then takes over for a set period of time in order to damp the vibrations. The intervention of the special control prevents a reduction of brake pressure, keeps pressure constant or at the most allows a delayed pressure build-up.

Title: Polymere a agents deshydratants entraines
Inventor: HEKAL IHAB M
IPC: B01J20/28
Filed: 1998-03-05
Abstract: La présente invention concerne des procédés et des structures associées permettant de produire des polymères à agents déshydratants entraînés absorbant l'humidité. On confère à un polymère un état de fusion, généralement par application de chaleur et fusion du polymère. Afin de permettre l'obtention de certaines propriétés dans le produit fini durci, telles que la rigidité et la durabilité, le polymère agit de manière générale comme barrière d'humidité à l'état solide, aussi bien avant qu'après la fusion. On mélange un agent déshydratant au polymère de sorte que ledit agent déshydratant se diffuse dans le polymère. De la même façon, on mélange également au polymère un agent de formation de canaux qui se diffuse dans le polymère. On effectue, de préférence, le mélange des composants avant que le polymère ne passe à l'état de fusion. L'ensemble polymère, agent déshydratant et agent de formation de canaux constitue un mélange homogène. Le mélange se solidifie de sorte que l'agent de formation de canaux crée des passages dans le mélange, par lesquels l'humidité entre en contact avec l'agent déshydratant qui est entraîné dans le mélange. Le mélange solidifié peut être utilisé pour former des pièces d'insertion de type bouchon et des garnitures pour récipients fermés. Il peut être utilisé également pour obtenir des feuilles stratifiées servant de matériau d'emballage.
